[@rickymorales6039]

I think jim is the best because hes the one that lets us see the office as it is and maybe the worst main cast character is toby hes similar to jim as in hes just a normal guy but just boring to watch

[@enjoisk8er811]

Fans love to see Jim mess with Dwight but subconsciously fans LOVE to see Jim care about Dwight even if its in the smallest of gestures

[@asecretone]

I think Jim wants to be friends with Dwight but Dwight's personality keeps Jim wanting to prank him

its so good when it happens hagahah

[@ther3aper561]

Like the episode when they take the bus to get Pies and Dwight is on the roof and Jim goes to talk to him. Love those moments. Same with when Dwight is nice to Pam. Gets me every time

[@dominickschrute3084]

I'm gonna have to say "Stress relief" is the funniest. You have the fire scene, dummy scene, AND the "heeded" convo. Nothing beats it for me.

[@andrewiangillies]

Good choice. Andy singing and Kelly dancing is special in that episode. It showed it's not just Michael that's a loose cannon in that office.

[@furkankoc1093]

It has roasts too. What a legendary episode. I believe Stress Relief is non-negotiably best episode.

[@katiew6935]

And the roast Michael thing!!

[@abbeykateee]

Stress relief is easily the best! The heeded conversation makes me laugh every time. Other aspects that make it the best to me are - the fact that its a double episode, the cold open, the roast, the strange Jack Black and Jessica Alba guest stars, the cute moment between Jim and Pam. It has everything!

[@stephenscholl2627]

Thank you! My favorite episode for sure, and I definitely feel like the “heeded” conversation doesn’t get enough love when this episode gets discussed.

[@darklimeking372]

What is my perfect episode? I film it in Tiffany's at midnight. Do I go for the easy jokes? No, I go for the sophisticated one, it's priceless. As I'm telling the joke, a woman catches me. She tells me to stop. It's her father's joke. She's Mad. I say no. We make love all night. In the morning, the cops come and I escape in one of their uniforms. I tell her to meet me in Hollywood, but I go to Broadway. I don't trust her. Besides, I like the stage. Thirty years later, I get a postcard. I have a son and he's the chief of police. This is where the story gets interesting. I tell my ex-lover to meet me in Paris by the Trocadero. She's been waiting for me all these years. She's never taken another lover. I don't care. I don't show up. I go to NBC head office. That's where I sold the episode.

one of my personal favorites is the beach episode. it included one of my favorite lines from the office, when stanley says: “i would rather work for an upturned broom with a bucket for a head than work for somebody else in this office besides myself. game on!” and it’s a turning point in not only pam’s character development but the weird vibe in her and jim’s relationship after she does the coal walk (and i personally love that she calls everyone out for not going to her art show bc when michael showed up and praised her that was one of my favorite michael scenes from the office).

[@dm9489]

The only part I didn't like about Pam calling out everyone for not showing up at her art show is that, well, Michael and Oscar did show up. I wish she would have mentioned that. Otherwise, Beach games is one of my favorite episodes too, Casino night and the Dundees are my favorite!

when I want to sell The Office to someone I usually say: you see stuff like Michael speaking in front of a business-school class and totally making a fool of himself by throwing candy bars into the audience stuff like Jim pranking Dwight by making him think that he is turning into a vampire, stuff like them all trying to catch a bat in the office and its absolutely hilarious, and you get these redeeming, wholesome moments too for example when Pam is showing her art at a local art show and nobody likes it, Michael shows up last minute and offers to buy one of the pictures because he genuinely loves it and wants to hang it up in the office. and all that happens in just one episode.

[@Tim_the_Enchanter]

This is one of my favorite moments also. He didn't buy it to make Pam feel better, the way Jim might have. He genuinely liked it. He loved the idea that Pam would draw the place they all worked. I don't think Michael loves Dunder-Miflin, but he thinks of his colleagues as his family, and he wants them to love him. This scene depicts that very well.

[@dojusticelovemercy1]

Grief Counseling is one of the best episodes too. Ed Truck’s death reveals Michael’s own insecurities about being alone and forgotten. Pam provides the best care for Michael by using the “bird funeral” to help Michael realize that is not alone.

[@Chihiro99685]

Yes!!

[@fuzzybanana0123]

This one also has the paper staircase/Michael getting coffee from the "warehouse" intro, which is low key underrated and hilarious. AND has the scene where Pam talks about her death story which is from that boxing movie and Ryan gives the camera that look, then talks about the Lion King. Another underrated scene. And Dwight/Michael talking about the robot and Jan on the phone going "what the hell are you two talking about?" after like three minutes of robot talk. Hilarious.

[@IRanOutOfPhrases]

Also sets up a great line for Creed later on in S3 when Oscar asks where Dwight is. Creed responds, "You didn't hear? Decapitated. Whole big thing. We had a funeral for a bird." Sounds like a total madman, but he's like 95% right. Just has the name wrong. And it all happens right in front of Jim who finally got back from Stanford, and is convinced its all gibberish.

[@jeffr6062]

My #1 will always be "The Coup". The entire premise is hilarious. Dwight goes behind Micheals back in order to convince Jan to make him regional manager. It has the insanely awkward scene where Micheal confronts Dwight about his trip to the dentist. Followed by Micheal playing along with Dwight being the new manager. To me that's the perfect episode

[@PANTA-Music]

Ah Crendist, the dentist.

[@coolgirl3580]

I feel like a really overlooked episode of the office is season 3 episode 5 "Initiation". I don't think it's the best episode, but it's one of my favorites. The chemistry between Dwight and Ryan is hilarious. Stanley's love of pretzel day is a mood. Pam having to make a list of everything Michael does in a day on a day he basically did nothing? Comedy gold. Even though Jim is at corporate the whole squeaky chair thing is amazing. And not to mention the super cute Pam and Jim phone call at the end. Overall a pretty great episode if I do say so myself.

booze cruise is my fav post michael episode

[@coleramsey6971]

My favorite line from this episode: Jim: what are you doing? Dwight: Vietnam sounds

[@misslittledove]

I’m not even a minute in and I already feel so validated. The Injury has always been my favorite episode of The Office. The balance of humor and emotions is perfect and relatable in so many ways. Most of us may not have burnt our foot in a Foreman grill but everyone can relate to having to take care of someone else, even if that person annoys the hell outta you.

[@deepjeste3499]

Ive used this episode for years as a way to introduce people to this show way more than dinner party. Its the best snapshot of literally every character dynamic and personalities on full display.

[@Nagram_]

I honestly think ``Stress Relief´´ *is* the best episode of The Office.

[@inkygoat]

“A lot of great episodes have to do with the undressing of Michael’s character.” *flashbacks to when Pam walked in on Michael changing in the office*

[@anthonygraham2938]

I love Garden Party. The traditional dances and Dwight announcing Jim every time he passes the threshold!

[@goose4811]

"You can't fire me I don't work in this van!" will forever be my favorite line from the show.

[@xX_dash_Xx]

Would you say this episode can also be seen as one of the episodes that "pushed" the satire-driven mocumentary towards more of a cartoonish sitcom? I think a better episode to rival the dinner party one is the one where Jim throws a party and doesn't invite Michael. So much character detail and situational comedy there... plus it is extremely grounded and feels like an episode of "The Office" outside the office.

[@wesperkins290]

-- email surveillance is IMO the best episode

[@t1m3l0rd]

I love this one.

[@keylanph]

“Stress Relief: Part 1” is by far the best episode

Great episode.. me personally.. i love the episode "Night Out" when Michael and Dwight go to NYC to hang with Ryan. Great all the way around

[@Cancel1991]

Is that Night Out or Launch Party? I think that was a two-parter.

[@andrewiangillies]

yeah strong contender, it's the best for me for that season.

[@Ron742_]

I like Golden Ticket episode the most. The way Michael gets into character, and the back and forth between him and Dwight.

[@universal_dissappointment]

I'm a little late but in my opinion, the best episode is "The Search". The one where Michael goes 'missing' and Holly, Dwight, and Erin go out to find him. It's so beautiful and amazing and it has an amazing payoff. Holly and Micheal are perfect for each other and her being right about every single guess on where Micheal could be was amazing. It was such a huge payoff in the long run. Micheal finally got his true love and I love them so much. That last bit when Holly goes on the roof, and the camera circles to reveal Micheal in perfect.

that's easily one of my favs. it's so absurd and it truly goes nowhere and that's just... so beautiful. I think it's one of the quintessential Office episodes

[@saikikusuo2933]

ı think that one episode when dwight makes a fire drill is one of the bests. that chaos was HILARIOUS

[@downtownllama9180]

The Injury was the very first The Office episode I’ve ever watched. It was played in class and I absolutely loved the show from then on. This episode is genius, very well rounded.

[@yveje9720]

I literally just watched this episode the other day i was like damn this episode is so funny also Creed giving us one of his best lines Micheal: do any of you know what its like to be disabled? Creed; when I was a teenager I was in an iron lung 😭😂😂

[@jordangate7742]

Michael: How old are you?

[@kittycattt93]

I love creed so much 😭🤣

[@alexeiharp7676]

That Michael and Stanley incident episode (lost the title but let's call it did I stutter) was one of my favorite, you can see how Michael manages between his hurt feelings, his craving for subordinates love and his obligations as a boss. Also Stanley letting go of his stoic habits for a minute after basically 9 years witnessing his boss enormities was refreshing. One of the few solid inner office episodes short before Michael left

[@_the_rizzler]

What a perfect episode of The Office looks like: -Michael getting himself into trouble -PB&J being cute -Jim messing with Dwight -Emotional moment that results in character growth for one of the main characters -Strong cold open -Amazing jokes throughout For these reasons, I think "Money" & "Casino Night" could possibly be the best episodes of The Office

[@Ache112]

English teacher: “See Michael used the grill as a form to get compassion to make him feel better about his insecurities of no one liking him.” Author: “Nah bro, he just stepped on a grill and burnt his foot lol”

[@staceyv9152]

I love that Angela and Oscar become best friends in the end. She was so horrible to everyone and became so nice once she found a friend and was able to express her love to Dwight.

[@sunnymorning228]

Thank you!! I've been saying this episode is the best representation of Michael's character. This is the most underrated episode for sure.

[@guyincognito2851]

I couldn't agree more! If I had to pick a favorite episode of The Office it would be this one. Jim summed it up in one sentence- "You burned *your foot* on a *Foreman Grill* ." The creativity that went into that just gets me every time I watch it. 😂 I also loved the heart and the jokes and friendly Dwight but I think my favorite part was how precious it was to see Jim caring for Dwight, but doing it in his own "Jim" way, by spraying him in the face with the water bottle.

[@andy7870]

An episode I saw recent that I honestly forgot how good it was was “Todd Packer”. This is the episode where Micheal outgrows packer as a friend right before his move to Colorado. Also has Jim and Dwight working together to take packer down which is amazing

Everytime when I think of the office’s best times is season 2 and the grilled foot. I have watched this episode with other people and seriously everyone was laughing every 20 seconds it’s amazing. Nothing like this episode or the overall season 2 could make me or my friends laugh this much

SAME. Dinner party and Scot's tots are hard to watch.

[@olc7222]

​@@Camilajj97 I actually have never watched the office before, I started to binge last week since quarantine and there was only ONE episode that I skipped parts of, which was scott's tots. I felt too uncomfortable when he entered the building that I had to skip to the next scene. Damn that was hard to watch

I love the second to last episode when Dwight becomes manager. I feel like all the underlying feelings that the office staff have for each other, and you assume are there but only ever get hints at, finally come out.. it might seem like a bit of a break from people's characters but so satisfying to end on

[@harambethegorilla6361]

IMO the best episode was Season 5 Episode 15 with Dwight's fire drill and the CPR scene.

[@inretrosuspect]

I FREAKIN GOT IT RIGHT! I KNEW IT WAS THE INJURY BEFORE HE EVEN SAID IT! NOW GET ME THAT FOREMAN GRILL!

[@jakubedwardschiffauermedraj]

That is a great episode! Your points are valid in my opinion. I would say that my favourite episode is "The Boat" (Season IX, Episode VI), with James Halpert, Pamela Halpert, Nellie Bertram and Co. who trick Dwight Schrute who thinks that he will be on live radio, and with Kevin Malone who tries desperately to keep Oscar Martinez's secret (relating to the Senator, Angela Lipton's husband). And along with this episode, I have four favourite scenes-the cold open of "Costume Contest" (Season VII, Episode VI), nicknamed "What Can Stanley Ignore?"; the scene wherein Micheal Scott verifies Dwight Schrute's and James Halpert's behaviour when making sales with two telephones in the conference room in "Customer Survey" (Season V, Episode VII); the chase scene of James Halpert in "Mrs. California" (Season VIII, Episode IX); and the cold open of "Andy's Ancestry" (Season IX, Episode III), in which James Halpert seemingly changes races overnight and comes into work Asian one morning. These scenes and this episode are, in my opinion, comedy gold; and so is the entire show. I in fact consider it my co-favourite television show along with "Mind your Language."
