Season 8 is pretty unwatchable.

Andy is a character who really only needs about 3 minutes of screentime and his relationship with Erin is probably the single worst continuing storyline of the entire show.

The creepy/weird Spader thing wears thin quickly and the expansion of Darryl's character continues to go awry.

It also probably leans a little too heavy on the Pam/Jim/Dwight dynamic, but considering how terrible some of the other "new" stuff is, it's kinda hard to fault the writers for doing it.

i agree that Andy overstays his welcome in S8 (earlier, honestly). But the Robert California character is so great.

Currently going through season 8 and it’s one of my favorites. I like Spader more than Carell. “Garden Party” and “Pool Party” are maybe my two favorite episodes of the show, period.

“Marley & Me and On Golden fucking Pond.”

Netflix should just open with two buttons: "The Office" and "Everything else."

Haha.

My wife and I have been rewatching the series over the winter. It's so great.

Spader is absolutely brilliant but I dont think he surpasses carell in this show. They should have gotten Spader ASAP after Michael left because he was the perfect replacement for the Michael character.

The Office is so fucking good.

Yes

I liked Carell overall more than Spader. But that's neither here nor there. It's everything else Verm said that I was agreeing with and excited by. The overall sentiment that S8 is a great season and the two specific episodes he mentions are two of the best.

Not really feeling the second half of season 8. The Tampa/Nellie stuff is really uneven.

Oh man, I love that stuff. At the time, when it originally aired week to week, I kept saying that I hope they kept it going. To me, it would have been a great way to "reboot" the show that late in the run. I was totally hooked on that story line.

Team Spader. California's camera take > Jim's.

I don't think comparing Michael and California is necessary because their characters are so different. I would love to have seen them on at the same time. California as Michael's boss would've been so nice.
