This is one of the classic episodes. The show started to pull away from the British version with the basketball game episode, but this shows the clear break. This starts a run of 2-3 seasons (depending on your opinion) where this show became the phenomenon it would be. There are so many ridiculous episodes coming. Can't wait to see your reactions.

[@Futureman75]

^THIS! 100%.

[@JullianChavez]

Agreed

[@rynefox7366]

I would agree that seasons 2-3 (and sometimes 4) are absolute peak Office… And yet my favorite storyline is MSPC. I won’t go beyond the abbreviation because spoilers, but such a great story.

[@CJ87317]

I'm not really sure where I'd say peak office ends. I include even late season episodes amongst my favorites.

[@ComeAlongKay]

They always talk about the office being based on the British version which is no where near as good but they never speak of the Briton’s office being based on the American movie spinal tap that introduced comedic fake documentaries played very dry and legit. Even the creator of the British said that’s where he got his inspiration from for the core idea of the show.

[@pacoerskine3625]

Fun Fact: actress playing Pam was worried about having to PERFORM drunk ...She had no experience.....BJ/Ryan took her out for 'character study' and by her 4th Cosmopolitan BJ reported that 'When "YOU'RE" drunk you talk real loudly when up close and You stare and nod when I'm talking to APPEAR sober" . So she used that ...and that's what she delivered.

[@Aeroldoth3]

Her inexperience was evident.

[@Lordoftheapes79]

Despite being Ryan, the dude is a bit of a genius.

[@Zepol-sg3oz]

Fun fact, this episode was originally going to be the pilot but the studio wanted them to redo the British pilot, so when they got picked up for a second season, they got a chance to film this one.

[@alexspindler1]

That makes sense. It's a well contained episode that doesn't require a lot of knowledge of the characters. I still love the US Office pilot. But this probably would have worked.

[@grabsgranite3188]

This is the episode I always recommend to people that haven’t watched The Office. Michael (while still unaware) shows why he can be loved. Plus, any episode that has a “Bushiest Beaver” award presentation has to be fantastic, right?

[@G1NZOU]

As a fellow Brit, I actually liked when they started to trust their own writing and the actor's contribution to the characters. Too many UK shows like Life on Mars got ruined by the writers trying to emulate the British show too closely while failing to understand the nuance, The Office finds its feet and becomes it's own show when they gain more confidence and develop their own unique plots and characters.

"What's a skillet of cheese?" Chillis has an appetizer that is a hot skillet of cheese and meat and chili and whatever served with chips for dipping. It's their version of a queso dip you would get at a tex-mex restaurant.

[@nullakjg767]

queso is literally illegal in the UK.

[@G1NZOU]

@@rhettwalker4173 I think what he means is much of what the US would qualify as cheese or "queso" would not qualify in the UK or EU as cheese.

[@ComeAlongKay]

The British version of the office was based on the American movie spinal tap which is ironically about British guys played by Americans.

[@hardhatlunchpal]

This is the beginning of the shift in the show. The first season Michael is completely unlikeable but this is where they realized Steve Carrell was too likeable. They started to have the cast stick up for Michael in at least one small way and it made the character so much more iconic because he actually was slightly redeemable. Don't get me wrong he's still an ass but this is the start of him getting better.

[@JeffKelly03]

There were some solid episodes in season one, but I think it's pretty universally agreed that this is the first episode that wound up being considered a classic for the series. (Diversity Day could be argued for out of season one, but The Dundies is on the short list for many people as being one of the best in the series.)

Bob Odenkirk (Saul Goodman from Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul) auditioned for the Michael Scott role and almost got it, if not for Steve Carell.

[@unc54]

It's only the 1st season that has 6 episodes. Every other season has 20+ (aside from S4 which was shortened by the 2007-08 writer's strike)

Once again...great job. I laugh as much at your reactions as the episodes themselves. It does indeed get even funnier! Can't wait.

I wish you’d guys show a bit more of the show, but still love it regardless!

[@abc123tiktok]

Glad enjoyed episode and its great can enjoy characters not just as jokes but people as well. Its a great show that brings out some interesting and entertaining characters.

[@Grateful_Dad_54]

Hey guys! If you ever feel like seeing something different, SNL did a spoof of The Office called 'Hobbit Office'. It has a number of SNL cast members as well as Martin Freeman, who was in the British (original) version of The Office and was also in The Hobbit. I think you'd really get a kick out of it! Loving your American Office reactions! Keep it up!

[@Quirkyalonester]

Fun fact: Chili's, the restaurant where the dundies took place, officially lifted the permanent ban for Pam 11 years later, after reviewing her good behavior. 😁

[@AndrewAHynd]

This is where it starts getting really good. Taking Michael from complete unlikable asshole to a guy who tries really hard, means well and then fails at things. Its the start of something really good now.

[@neabby]

God I wish we would've gotten more drunk Pam throughout the series 😔😂

[@omarmendoza7150]

Trust me the seasons get better and better, they become a family.

[@bobpie7785]

yall got to react to "Benches clear after Yankees pitcher hits Orioles batter in head, a breakdown" by jomboy media

[@anada303]

I couldn't get into this show for the longest time. Someone told me to start with season 3, which I did & loved it. I then watched 1 & 2 after I was done. They made Michael less of an oaf and fleshed out his character around season 3-4

[@NOxSPLOOSHxPLANE]

The season by season development of this show was amazing especially between Pam and Michael also Pam and Jim, you'll know what I mean if y'all continue to watch.

[@jazzingirl]

I prefer when they made show more American. the lighting is brighter, Micheal is kind but an idiot and jokes ver more to our taste

[@DNReacts]

[@betsyduane3461]

Season 2 is 22 episodes

[@dennislopez1272]

Definitely my favorite episode up to this point. This is an all-timer episode. It marks the turn of the show away from the British version and starts the turn of Michael Scott away from David Brent. It shows the other character that you can relate too, and like as people, care about Michael Scott which in turn makes him more likeable. The first season of the character would not have been sustainable in a long running series.

[@CharlieRogers50]

Season 2 the writers decided to change Michael's character slightly. He was incredibly unlikable in the first season, however the wrote him as a bit more capable and lovable in this season and from this point on the show really took off in popularity.

[@Nicole-hc7rh]

Wait when is the Fire drill episode?!

Season 2 is when the show begins to learn its rhythm. Season 1 was a fluke, and S2 was only picked up bc Steve Carell crushed it that summer between seasons and starred in 40 year old virgin
