Last Season of The Office

I used to be a regular watcher of The Office, but stopped after Steve Carrell left.  Apparently I missed a pretty bad season last year when the show tried to find its footing after Carrell's exit, and the ratings fell.  Now comes news that next season will be the last season for The Office.

I agree that the best days of The Office have passed.  The Office used to provide consistent funny episodes, by Steve Carrell's last season, only a few episodes really stood out as being good.  I think it's great that they can give the show a proper ending, and the original showrunner, Greg Daniels, is coming back for this last season.  I will be watching again. 

In no particular order, my favorite episodes of The Office:

- Casino Night - Jim's confession of love and his first kiss with Pam
- Garage Sale - Michael's proposal to Holly
- Niagara, Parts I and II - Pam and Jim's wedding
- Gay Witch Hunt - Michael's accidental outing of Oscar and his misguided sensitivity seminar, complete with a kiss with Oscar
- Stress Relief, Parts I and II - Starting with Dwight setting the office on fire to punish his coworkers for not listening to his instructions as fire safety officer, and ending with a really awkward roast of Michael and Michael's attempt at counter-roast
