I Like Bourbon And My Smoker And Maybe 3 People Shirt, hoodie
- Emotional Weight
Each category is worth a possible ten points and my scoring goes out two decimal places because it’s ridiculous. A (theoretically) perfect episode would get a 40, although none did. Yes, 40 points is an arbitrary measure, but I thought it was important to show what an episode did well, or not so well, in comparison with others. Also: I’ll admit, my rankings skewed toward rewarding episodes that had big, emotional moments because I LIKE THOSE and why do you not like to feel?
Some housekeeping: There is some disagreement about how episodes in some seasons are numbered. I pushed double-episodes into one item and followed Netflix’s numbering because that’s how I rewatched it (well before the great Peacock purge).
While writing this — which ended up being a yearslong process — I tried to nail down why I love The Office so deeply, and I realized that a lot of it comes from the feeling that I’m dropping in on my old friends. That’s the highest honor for a show, in my opinion. What separates The Office from the many other TV shows that have come and gone? It manages to transport you into its own little world. It makes you want to spend time with these people in their crappy little office. The Office also gave space for its characters to change, and we grew along with them — Michael from a total ass to a lovable ass; Jim from a directionless office drone to an ambitious dad; Pam from someone totally stuck to someone with purpose; Dwight from authoritarian weirdo to…friendly, slightly less authoritarian weirdo.
Anyway. Here it is, every episode of The Office, ranked in descending order. (Warning: There’s a lot. If you’re gonna do it, why go half-ass?)
185. Season 8, Episode 8 – “Gettysburg”
