Rainn posted this to facebook. Pretty impressive list of names. Adam Scott, Mary Lynn Rasjkub, and Alan Tudyk.

I would kill to see the audition footage.
I can definitely see Adam Scott as Jim and Mary Lynn Rasjkub as Pam in an alternate Office universe. Though, only Steve Carell and Rainn Wilson can do Michael and Dwight.
I only just clicked what that list is. For some reason, I thought it was a joke sign in sheet for the finale, with either guest stars or just people hanging around "signing in" as a joke.
Now I get what it is, its pretty impressive. I could definitely see Adam Scott as Jim, but find it hard to picture anyone else. Rainn would've certainly been an interesting Michael.

Beat EviLore at pool.
Adam Scott would be a awesome Jim.

It's cool that he eventually became the "Jim" of Parks and Rec.
Then again, he played a similar role for Party Down.
He's pretty good at being that type of character.

I really didn't understand all the talk of how this season is so bad until I began to watch Stress Relief on Netflix, god this episode has me laughing in tears
NBC replayed the second half of Moving On.
One thing I actually really liked about that episode is the Dwight and Angela storyline. Angela was genuinely likable and you feel really bad for Dwight in the end.
Pam's a total bitch, still. "Even if it was a great job and a great boss, I don't know if I want this." And when Jim said "and I started a job in Philadelphia," Pam just gives him this "too bad" look. Ice cold.

I didn't even know it was on 
I'll watch it later I suppose. I hope the Brian sub-plot got a lot of advancement.

listen to the mad man
Jim shoots Brian in the head and the ensuing murder investigation uncovers money laundering at Dunder Mifflin Scranton, setting up the show's final plotline.

See that actually makes a little more sense than "You mean they have been filming everything for 10 years .... and OMG sound too!?!?!?" Next thing you know Roseanne and Tom Arnold will be having cameos.
Why was Pam pissed at Brian again? I just don't get it.
Maybe it's just me, but the bit about not recording everything might have been referring to that one time she and Jim had sex in the office.

Plausible I suppose. Maybe that is what she was talking about with wanting a DVD...

So fucking stupid. They never should have decided to address the documentary stuff. It makes absolutely no sense, even by sitcom standards.

Did pam and jim have a second kid? I think they did, but they never made a big deal out of it like they did with their first one. Also, when Brian said he was going to get drinks for pam, i swear i thought he was gonna get her drunk or something and get her to cheat on Jim. Speaking of Jim, now that he's in philly, is Nellie supposed to be the new prankster now, messing with andy all the time?
That episode was hilarious all the way through - I laughed at pretty much everything, which hasn't happened in a while. Kevin always kills me, loved when he explained his confusion at filming a documentary, and Creed's creepy smile in the beginning when Phyllis is getting off on 50 Shades of Grey. Gold.

She and Angela were pregnant at the same time.
Plus she was pregnant in real life.
Just caught up with the newest episode now.
It wasnt too bad, one of the better ones this season id say, there were some funny moments in it.
But the whole thing about them getting worried about what secrets are going to come out should not be covered in the series. It will not make any sense when you look back through the old episodes, the amount of secrets & personal stuff they tell the cameras knowing that it going to be on aired on TV makes the whole thing seem fake. I know its supposed to be a mockumentary, but after the first season it was never a believable documentary & just became a sitcom where they occasionally acknowledged the cameras.
It all worked fine & was believable watching in from the outside, but for them to now watch it back themselves in their universe just makes the whole thing seem odd.

He hasn't quit yet, I don't think. He's been doing what Jim's been doing.
For real. What was all that crap with the tractor girl? A Dwight love interest for The Farm?
Can't believe they brought Brian back for more "will she cheat?" fake-out bullshit. Pam is still whining about petty non-issues after Jim spent Valentines with her "working things out." Working out what exactly? Pam's one-sided complaining about Jim working his ass off in Philly. So much time and drama over something so ordinary and mundane. This has to be the most forced, trivial argument hoisted onto an otherwise dull, conflict-less television couple.
Old Andy was pretty cool though.

Yep. I love that chick. She's not much to look at, but she's funny as hell.
I actually like New Jim too.

I am curious to see the farm in its original form. I suspect it might be the worst pilot for a tv show ever made.

In all media, only true fans who consume every book, film, game, or pog collection deserve to know what's going on.
The whole Stanley bit had me laughing out loud. So I would disagree.
different strokes and all that. The rest of the ep isn't too bad, although Andy's acting crap is annoying too.

Still waiting for Jim to call Pam out on having a made up job.
Maybe he forgot about it, like Stanley forgot that he took the stairs all the time to lose weight...

I dunno , that's the most real the relationship has been in years.

The Jim/Pam woes are obviously forced into the storyline because they have nothing left that feels substantial or real. They have the horribly written Jim/Pam bad marriage angle, and then everything else is zany bullshit that no one would ever believe. It's like they need that one shred of something almost real so bad that they rushed it in.
