He practically makes that show, IMO. Huge loss, but it depends on who they get to replace him.

Honestly I'm not sure how the show would survive, or if it even should. It's getting to the point where I think they should considering ending it before it jumps the shark.

To the show's credit they do a great job at rotating in new characters without missing a beat, so perhaps they could pull it off. Still, I just can't imagine the show without Michael Scott.

it shouldn't be on anymore if you ask me. it used to be great until holly left then it started snowballing fast, i can't remember the last new episode i watched. the first 4 seasons of that show were great though

what about a show with micheal scarn?

W/out Carrel there is no show. To me, it lost its steam somewhere in season 4. Not sure if it was the whole resolution of the Jim/Pam thing or what. Just seems like they are repeating themselves.

I doubt it makes it to Season 7.

Well, Carrel has said he's leaving after season 7, so it's getting at least that far.

Wait, what season are we in now? It was this past season that seemed to lack the spark it had in the past. I thought we just finished season 5 and were heading into 6.

Yep, this show has really fallen off. While its still entertaining, its not what it used to be. I feel like all shows have a very specific shelf life. I feel the same about Entourage now too... after 4-5 seasons, it just feels like things are just being written into the show for the sake of having something in there and they're not nearly as interesting. The first 3 seasons of The Office we're amazing, and the Jim/Pam storyline was something everyone could kind of live through. Its still really funny, but once they got together, it kind of killed the show for me in terms of must see TV.

re: What Shows Are You Watching?

Every show at some point jumps the shark but the networks must milk them for every cent thus in the end you end up with crappy episodes.

I kind of think HBO seems to have a good feel when to pull the plug.

Yeah, thought White Collar was pretty entertaining. Though I had a feeling she was in on it. A little too calm during the kidnapping and with the gun to her head in my opinion. Covert Affairs was pretty good as well. A lot like Alias so far, which I thought was a great show (at least its first year and a half).

Been watching Mad Men season 3 on demand lately, getting excited for next Sunday's season premiere.

I'm really looking forward to Boardwalk Empire on HBO. Big fan of the Steve Buscemi and Martin Scorsese. Wish I didn't have to wait until Sept. 19th for the premiere.
