What will Art Stars Session Seven be like?
Comment here what you think it’ll be like.
The Office and Art Starz. The two don’t seem to have that much in common. However they do.
Here are the things that they share.
1. As Joe has formerly formally stated; his aunt is friends with Rainn Wilson (The actor who plays Dwight Shrute).
2. We are located on scenic Hope Street (one of the best streets in the world, I must add). Guess what? Steve Carrell (plays main character, Michael Scott) filmed for “Dan in Real Life” just down the street at 7 Stars Bakery.
3. John Krasinski (Actor who plays Jim Halpert) attended college at Brown, which is in Providence, Rhode Island.
4.There is a scene from the season premiere of Season 3, where Michael says he’s met a person from every group imaginable. Except for people from the South. And he never knew anyone from Rhode Island…
5. In the movie we made with Jay, Watching TV, My skit was the Classroom. A parody of the Office.
6. I had suggested that idea all the way back in Art Starz Session 3.
7. Before we made it in Session 6, I had already made at least 4 episodes on my own, with other people.
8. There are 8 posts already related to the Office on Fort Rochambeau.
9. I (obviously) am a humongous Office Fan.
I hope this has enlightened you on the similarities between the greatest show on earth and the greatest after school program on Earth.
Now, an order: Watch the Office Season 5!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
For all you people who missed the last episode, Goodbye Toby, here is a brief summary: Toby (The HR rep) has decided to retire and move to Costa Rica. On his last day, Michael Scott makes sure he has the best and most elaborate goodbye party ever, but doesn’t forget to be mean to Toby, who he thinks is the downfall of the company. His replacement, Holly, arrives. Initially, Michael hates her too. Then, he begins to fall madly in love with her. In one day. Yikes. Meanwhile, Jim has paid for fireworks, not so much for Toby, but to make the night special, so he can romantically propose to his girlfriend, Pam. Unfortunately the moment is stolen by Andrew Bernard, who proposes to Angela before Jim can propose to Pam. Just as Michael is beginning to flirt with Holly, he is interrupted and goes to find hi9s ex-girlfriend, Jan. She has a big suprise for him. Meanwhile Ryan is arrested. YAY!
And for you all who really have paid no attention to the Office whatsoever, here is a basic summary of the show:
A camera crew arrives in a Scranton paper company, Dunder Mifflin. Regional Manager, Michael Scott, tries to entertain his workers with inappropriate and unfunny jokes. Meanwhile, corporate Branch Manager Jan Levinson-Gould informs Michael that the office has the possibility of being shut down. Jim Halpert is a friendly, charismatic, cool, funny, and nice salesman, who has a crush on the equally nice receptionist, Pam. Unfortunately Pam is engaged with warehouse worker Roy. When he’s not selling paper or having fun with Pam, he is pranking akward, gullible, idiotic and overall power-obsessed Dwight Shrute. Dwight is also madly in love with Angela, a tightly wound accountant who constantly nags, criticizes, and makes mean comments.
Eventually, Michael Scott and Jan Levinson (she had just been divoriced) make an important sale, and they kiss. This is the start of Jan’s self-destruction. As Jan spirals downward, Michael only becomes more happy. That is, until he releases all of these HR (Human Resources) complaints and causes Jim to think about transferring to Stamford Connecticut.
Michael breaks up with Jan and starts dating Carol Stills (his realtor). Jim considers transferring, but because of his feelings for Pam, tells her that he loves her. She refuses to love him back, on the grounds that Roy and her are getting married, but the audience can tell she still has feelings for Jim.
Jim transfers and sparks a new love intrest with fellow saleswoman, Karen Fillipeli, at Stamford. Meanwhile, Pam has called off the wedding.
It appears that Scranton is closing. They would have if the Branch Manager of Stamford, Josh Porter, hadn’t quit. In this way, Scranton absorbed the Stamford Branch. Six workers transfer to Scranton, Andrew Bernard, Karen Fillipelli, Martin Nash, Hannah Smoteridge-Barrs, Anthony Gardner, and of course Jim Halpert. Within the first two months, Martin, Hannah, and Anthony are all either fired or quit. Jim and Pam’s friendship is incomplete, because Jim is dating Karen, and the akwardness between the two hasn’t ceased.
Meanwhile, Andy Bernard is in a power struggle with fellow salesman Dwight Shrute. Andy stresses a situation involving Angela som much that Dwight quits, only to return in the next episode. Andy is placed in Anger Management.
Michael starts dating Jan.
Michael is asked to interview for a Job at Corporate. He takes everyone to the beach, and has competiotions to see who will replace him. The word gets out, and soon Jim and Karen also ask for the job. At the beach, Pam has a burst of courage, and decides to tell Jim how she really feels about Jim. She says that she misses their friendship.
At the interview, Micahel doesn’t realize that the job he is interviewing for is actually Jan’s job, and she will be fired soon. Niether Michael, or Jim, or Karen gets the job. In a suprise turnout it was Ryan a former Scranton temp, who never made a sale, and almost burnt the building down with a cheesy pita.
Jim returns to Scranton, and starts dating Pam. Karen transferrs to Utica.
Their love is kept hidden, but certain coworkers have their suspicions.
Dwight mercy-kills Angela’s cat, and their relationship seemingly comes to an end.
Jim and Pam’s love is eventually revealed.
Ryan is still branch manager. He creates a web-site in which people can buy paper online. Numerous people (especially those in sales, seeing that it is taking away their clients) especially Jim and Dwight criticize this website.
Dwight is really in pain because of his break-up with Angela. It is all the more painful when she starts dating Andy Bernard.
Jim and Dwight become somewhat friends, although that doesn’t stop Jim from pranking Dwight and Andy.
Michael and Jan are still dating, up until a sizeable argument at a dinner party. After his break up, Michael searches to date other people.
Ryan’s website has flaws, and eventualy we get to Goodbye Toby, which you can read more about above.
