They kept the boom mics in on purpose!!!!! Also the boom shadow….theres an old Cat Stebpvens song that goes “I’m being followed by a moon shadow, moon shadow, moon shadow” & Jenna & Angela would sing when they could see the boom shadow “I’m being followed by a boom shadow, boom shadow boom shadow”….i guess u had to be there, LOL…but my source is the office ladies podcast which Jenna and Angela host (they’re long time irl besties) ..anyway, that podcast is great, it goes episode to episode, so many Easter eggs… brilliant show
@@sh0ts420 Im scared of this episode. I cant watch it because holy hell. Always skip it. I dont need that cringe in my body again after the first time i saw it, hahahaha
Season 1's always an intresting watch. The humble beginnings of the the office environment being at its most lifeless and Michael being at his crudest, yet the show somehow manages to feel the most wholesome as it unpretentiously starts to find its footing. Later seasons do a better job of making it clear that Michael means well
Homelander if he met Michael Scott: alright it was great meeting you buddy, you know who haven’t met? Hey Ashley?! Can you come over here for a minute. Hiii, this is Michael Scott and I think you two are going to hit it off famously. Ashley here loves paper. Great. Okay I gotta go. Great meeting you buddy. You’re the best.” Walks away and whispers under his breath “f’n idiot.”
Trailer park boys is almost like a mix between the office and it's always sunny, it's one of my all time favorite shows, I think you might enjoy watching it too lol
Jim and Dwight are best frieds in their convoluted way. They thrive on that nonsense, even if it hurts sometimes. Like a weird version of Batman and Joker.
Actually very accurate Also anyone miss full on shirt michael,he was a jerk ( although I like his development) but he looked super cool during the early episodes of this season
If you want to hear about some of the bts stuff from the show, Jenna Fischer (Pam) and Angela Kinsey (Angela) have a podcast called Office Ladies where they've been going through the whole series talking about their thoughts and bts stuff, and some episodes there are guest appearances from other people from the show. It's a great listen, I highly recommend it.
Over the last couple of years, I’ve developed a lactose intolerance, and that line from Michael about killing himself if he was allergic to dairy has become so much funnier since lol such an insane thing to say
Great reaction. I've always found Season 1 just not quite up to snuff just on the basis that the show didn't have much of a identity yet until about Season 2, I guess a contributing factor was the blatant unlikability of certain characters. Whilst there is much more heart and the characters are firmly established in succeeding seasons, it is nice to get this retrospective on a still good season of television I often overlook.
@JamesVSCinema That's great news! I've been a subscriber for a while now, especially enjoyed your "Fargo" reactions. Recently finished watching another of my fave reactors' journey with "The Sopranos" & more than once found myself thinking "James would love this show!" There's a reason it's considered one of the best series ever made. And you have a good eye for seeing the reasons something is great & a good ear for appreciating good dialogue. Looking forward to it. I know you might not know exactly when you'll get to it but is it likely to be fairly soon or way down the road?
I disagree that Season 1 is the worst. I would say its the worst of the good seasons. The last couple seasons aren't good imo, but before then every season is at the very least good and usually great.

Gotta consider checking out Curb Your Enthusiasm, A tier comedy and discomfort

James, as great as the U.S. version of The Office is, I beg you to critique the U.K. version.
You’re going to love Jim and Dwight’s dynamic as the show goes on. Great reaction James, I hope you’re doing well. Have a great weekend and take care!
Thanks! You too!
3:32 Oh that's just Angela being Angela 😅 the reaction you had to that was hilarious, just absolutely flabbergasted and gobsmacked
Get ready go say “Michael stop!” Like every episode lmao
cant wait for scotts tots
@@sh0ts420oh my god, the top tier cringe lol
@@sh0ts420 Im scared of this episode. I cant watch it because holy hell. Always skip it. I dont need that cringe in my body again after the first time i saw it, hahahaha
Can’t wait for my favorite season 1 episode, Basketball.
Same
Rest in peace chill The Office Beats

A scuttlebutt is basically a water cooler or fountain....often a place to gather for small talk or gossip....
The power dynamics of the Party Planning Committee are more volatile than Game of Thrones
I wouldn’t say season 1 is the “worst one”. Definitely shorter and less fleshed out, but the humor is right up there
Homelander if he met Michael Scott: alright it was great meeting you buddy, you know who haven’t met? Hey Ashley?! Can you come over here for a minute.

Great editing on this one, and fun reaction 😀
This show could've been called Somebody Stop Michael 😂
Such a great show. Tralier park boys is another series you should check out.
That’s another show I gotta check out

100%. TPB is golden.

The beginning of the parties lol
10:24 Darryl is the man. You’re gonna love him he’s so funny 😂
There's so much Office and the episodes are so short that this feels like a two a week show. Pretty please?!
You should watch Trailer Park Boys. Its very similar to this, being a scripted mockumentary.
Scuttlebutt is a military term for rumors or gossip.
If you want to hear about some of the bts stuff from the show, Jenna Fischer (Pam) and Angela Kinsey (Angela) have a podcast called Office Ladies where they've been going through the whole series talking about their thoughts and bts stuff, and some episodes there are guest appearances from other people from the show.

@8:40 There's always plenty of cake in the office
OMG, I think the basketball episode is next...
Love the editing this time ❤
Over the last couple of years, I’ve developed a lactose intolerance, and that line from Michael about killing himself if he was allergic to dairy has become so much funnier since lol such an insane thing to say
6:19 this is Michael’s entire character 😂
Remember only a few episodes left of THIS version of Michael
I’m glad you’re watching this show.
We need double billings James, I need more! 😅
Have you seen Jury Duty? It's a must see.
Great reaction.

When you realize Craig Robinson was standing in the back 😂
7:52 your face fucking killed me
Oof I needed some levity 🤜
Pam 100% could've helped jim out there when Roy walked in. Really drives me nuts
Dude, love your reactions to such a legendary show. And I will say, things in this show will only get cringier and more awkward. And it’s so well done
You might be onto something! Maybe Michael would be Homelander's downfall 😂
Lol if he's cringing here James isn't ready for...it. IYKYK
Yep, and so begins Angela's character "arc" 😂
@05:43 was that pun intended?
Hey, James...any chance "The Sopranos" is in your future, & ours?
It is!

Scuttlebutt is slang in the Marines for gossip
It’s originally a naval term, not Marines
When I first watched this episode it was so hard to watch Jim bitch out like that when Pams boyfriend showed up.
🤠
🤙🇨🇦♥️
How the f is that office profitable lol
You should watch Silence from Scorsese

S1 is the best one
