By far my favorite show on tv. The ending wasnt really what i was expecting for a Michael Scott finale.

I was really suprised when they brought Will Ferrell on the show being that his comedy isn't the same dry humor that the office provides. I am counting down until the Will Ferrell audition has passed because he adds nothing to the show. If i wanted to watch trip and fall comedy I would just watch SNL.

Agreed Not the funniest episode but I thought they handled it really well. This whole season they've tried to show that Michael is finally starting to mature a little bit and this episode wrapped that up nicely.
It still had Michael being Michael, like when he gave Kevin the picture and told him that he can lose weight. That had me cracking up.

Overall, I really liked it.

I pretty much agree. I was entertained by his opening scene in the first episode he was in (including the shout-out to the movie Old School), but I think Michael's character could have been closed out without Ferrell or any other short-term replacement. Overall, I thought the final Michael episode may not have been remarkably funny, but it was classy. I liked it.

Big fan of The Office over the years. It's obviously lost some of it's luster in the last year or two but it's still good. Will Ferrell has just been horrible unfortunately.

Will Ferrell on the Office would be like George Carlin on the 3 Stooges. doesn't work slap stick vs. dry humor.

Loved when he pulled off the mic and you could still read his lips... "That's what she said."

Wonder if the show will be brought back next year. Because the show would go with Michael Scott. If Michael goes, so does the show! Despite his second in command, would take over. But still, Michael was the heart of the show. And even Will Ferrell as big as he is, wouldn't or couldn't replace Michael Scott!

I'm almost positive they've said the show will be back for an 8th season without Steve Carell.

My only hope is that they have him back as a guest next season because I don't think the show can or should end without us seeing Michael and Holly's wedding.

It's def back on next year.

How many episodes has Ferrell been on so far? I can only remember 2 so far.I thought he's done a fine job,last episode he was barely there,which is the way it should have been.
