One of the funniest episodes this season by far. The cold
opening with Dwight refusing to sit was one the better openings
in a long while, culminating with Jim pushing him over. Sure,
this went for the cheap laugh of physical comedy, but it worked.
Dwight opening up his own Gym with rocks and barn tools was a
nice touch. But it was the dialogue between him and Darryl that
had me howling.
Dwight: I'm gonna make you look like Lebron James.
Darryl: It's LeJohn Brames.
Also,
Dwight: What's your goal?
Darryl: To look good for Val.
Dwight: Val Kilmer? That doesn't make any sense.

Funny stuff. Also, it was cool to see Maura Tierney pop up as
the wife of Robert California. I'd like to see more of her on
the show for sure.

Plenty of funny moments in this one. From Kevin giving Robert a
bear hug to the escalating prank wars between Jim and Dwight.
But the best moment was clearly when Dwight started to air
guitar to the song Christmas Eve by Trans-Siberian Orchestra. It
was awesome! Not bad for a Xmas episode if I do say so myself.
Not in the same league of any Steve Carell episodes with him in
the Santa outfit. But it held it's own for sure.

The gang had a pretty good run of top notch episodes. But all
good things must come to an end. Trivia was basically a Bar
competition for $1,000 prize. I'm kinda shocked that it took 8
seasons for them to get around to swiping this plot from UK
version of The Office, which was much funnier...like gut busting
funny. Here, not so much. And the whole Gabe/Dwight/Robert story
was boring.

That didn't take long to regain their momentum. This was top
shelf all the way and had me howling. So damn funny it hurts.
From the opening bit trying to make Stanley laugh to the pool
party itself and the end with Gabe and Ryan trying to impress
Robert California by staying at the party long after it's over
was good good stuff. Looks like the writers are going to get
Andy and Erin back together which would be a good thing for the
series for comedy gold and mine that awkwardness they have
around each other.

It never occurred to me that Angela was pregnant with another
man's child, even though the gang had alreadly made it known
that her Husband the Senator was gay. So, once the baby arrived
and Oscar figured out that Angela had the baby a month earlier,
I knew right away that Dwight was the father. This is a nice new
arc that is sure to yield some golden comedy nuggets.
But the funniest moment in Jury Duty was when Kelly, seeing
through Jim's ruse about the kid drawings tears up her own
drawing. Haha. Evil! And classic!!!!
