I think Dwight's reaction to the kiss is underrated. And Micheal telling him to back down - just perfect.

It’s one of my fave ever just because of how fun and enjoyable it is to watch. It’s not emotionally straining like casino night or a special episode like dinner party, it’s just quintessentially Office, and so much fun to watch

I'm a fairly young gay, and I showed this to my parents and grandparents intentionally. I was laughing my ass off, but they were deeply horrified. I'm the "hypersensitivity generation", but this is my favorite episode. I think it's an excellent satire of both homophobia and the awkward dance straight people often perform as "tolerance". Oscar is forced to Come Out, and Michael makes it ALL about Michael. He goes through a personal journey at Oscar's expense. It's a truly hilarious social horror movie. The gay guy gets to be the view-point character for once! How can you watch this and NOT relate to Oscar, even if you're straight?

The kiss is classic! Definitely one of the most memorable moments!

This playlist being backwards is gonna drive me nuts lol. That being said, loved the S2 guide, and am very excited for S3!

Did anyone else catch Larry Wilmore's voice as Mr. Brown? This time as the speaker of Diversity day for the Stamford branch. So funny that he is talking to them, again for something Michael did (revealing that Oscar is gay) and he again is using the HERO analogy from season 1.

My favorite moment is the Andy reaction to the prank hahaha

If that kiss was unscripted, how, HOW, did everyone not just break down laughing and screaming? How and why did they stay in character?

This is the first video I watched on your channel and for this series. I want to thank you for creating this series. At first, I just wanted to know about the teapot but in turns out I wanted to know more theories on the Office. I totally agree with you when you said that Michael is just oblivious to things which I think is really funny. 🙂

In the season 2 Halloween episode Oscar came in dressed as a woman, it was implied that Michael was fully aware that Oscar is homosexual when he said “I bet you wished you could wear this every day huh Oscar”, since the line was delivered with a serious tone of voice. But I choose to look past it, the most convincing thing about the kiss scene has to be Oscars complete sense of disgust in his reaction to it.

I’ve rewatched the office more times than I can count this and “the injury” are two of my favorites

There is something to be said for the mere fact that the office was taking on this topic when even today, a whole bunch of shows are too chicken to do that. And there are a lot more now than there were then. Simple inclusion and representation means a lot to gay people. The Office did it well. You don't seem to rate social consciousness or bravery very highly, but I do. And so yes, to many, this was one of the best episodes.

Michaels line about “you wouldn’t call a retarded person a retard” is his way of saying he really didn’t know Oscar was gay because he wouldn’t have used the f word if he knew

Fun Fact: In amazon prime all seasons have the 12 + or got the 14+ age rating. This season gets the 16+ ages rating

6:36 We should have heeded the warning.

Man covid was Tommorow when this was uploaded

When you lose, don't lose the lesson..

Does anyone know where I can watch this episode

I think the episode needed to show the rejection, but instead of putting in memory form, just go right where the last season left off

yes to reviewing the webisodes please!

4/5 is fair. For me it's a 5/5 because I think it's the funniest episode of the office, maybe except for dinner party (maybe) I can't really decide.

I'm just thinking...sure it's bad that Michael outed Oscar. But why is nobody talking about Toby, an actual HR guy, outing Oscar to Michael (and sharing something Oscar told him confidentially)? Maybe Toby should have been fired for this.

Tbh I don’t think your proposed change is much different. So Pam looks at Ryan then transition to Casino night scene is too heavy handed. But, if Jim looks at the empty chair next to him, cue transition and that’s NOT heavy handed? Tbh I don’t think it’s a big deal either way but your proposed change is pretty identical

As a young gay who’d just come out when I watched this the first time, the line “yeah, I’m sure everyone would love it if I treated them like they were gay” was the first and so far only line to ever make me so conflicted that I had to take a break. I came back and loved the rest of it, of course, but MAN this show knew exactly what it was doing when it came to comedy.

It doesn’t matter what the joke is or what the point of the offensive aspects are, as shown by the numerous instances of jokes making fun of black face being taken down off streaming services for portraying black face.

I guessed right! Nevermind...

Please do cover the webisodes!

Top 5 episodes for me!

I would say 3/5 but the kiss gets it to 4/5.

Yes, cover the webisodes please..

Both are funny 😄

I thought for a while the blonde woman Andy pointed out to Jim might be January Jones. I’m not sure why I shared this but there you are,

no way I actually guessed 36 what is going on lately

I just noticed: "poposed"?

i dont get why pam and roy stayed togrther even after the wedding

stick tuned?

The fact that you have to apologize for explaining that the joke is not offensive is why an office reboot cannot work

Close, I guessed 42 'gay's

Aw man, i guessed 30 gays. Pretty close though!

False! Parasites don't follow creatures around. They latch on. - Dwight (totally didn't say that)

that kiss hurts a lot, cringe

I notice u changed the transitional shit

So glad u didn’t bring up the F word.

It was a great time back then.

To the point that this show couldn’t work now… it absolutely couldn’t… every episode would have one “triggering” moment and execs would be called to cancel weekly… the “hypersensitive” groups have destroyed comedy… which is why standup comics that cater to this crowd actually suck and the numbers reflect that… people want to be offended… it’s true… as a “straight white male”, nothings funnier than when someone makes fun of something I actually do, think, say or whatever… it’s hilarious! Getting angry at everything isn’t healthy! I suppose now we will get the chance to see… with the “reboot” of the Office coming out at some point… I seriously don’t think it’ll be this direct… I think they’ll “touch” these topics but not outright smack you with them like the original did and still does… this show is probably the funniest show of all time because of the inappropriate, “offensive”, uncomfortable stuff… if they were to have skirted the topics instead of had Michael go hard on them, this show doesn’t make it 9 seasons.. not a chance…

PoPoSeD

In terms of how highly I rank this episode, I think it's a fairly average episode by the extremely high standard of the first five seasons of The Office. Not the best, not the worst. But being an average episode in the first five seasons of The Office means this episode is in the top 1% of all sitcom episodes ever made.

Is ur video production gonna increase as u stay home away from COVID-19?

This is probably the episode I have the most conflicted feelings about. Cause on one hand, we were finally getting gay rep. and it was unfortunately accurate to how people have treated me, on the other hand, I was just uncomfortable and disturbed. Basically lost sympathy for half the cast right there.

I agree Protect the office from the hypersensitive generation. It's comedy. Thanks for this review, going great

As a lesbian female I appreciate 😎
