After a couple comments on yesterday’s webisode post, and then seeing a real episode last night on TV, I realized how much I miss the real Office episodes and how I’m ready to have them back again.
So, since we haven’t had a haiku contest (and I’ve had 5 emails in the last two weeks asking for another one), I thought this would be a great topic.
Write about how you miss the Office episodes, how the webisodes aren’t cutting it (no offense to the writers and actors), how it’s been since they stopped airing, what you think about reruns, whatever you want.
(For the new folks, a Haiku is a “Japanese lyric verse form having three unrhymed lines of five, seven, and five syllables, traditionally invoking an aspect of nature or the seasons.” So basically, you have to have three lines of 5, 7 and 5 syllables and they don’t have to rhyme. Of course, instead of nature or season, we are going to write about how we miss The Office and how we’re ready for it to come back.)
Let the poetic mourning begin.
No smiles, no giggles
No super-awkward moments
Bring back The Office
More: “that’s what she said,”
Bobble-head Dwight in Jello?
Maybe next season.
september 14
How can they keep us hanging?
I need the office!
WEBISODES TOO SHORT…
I NEED MICHAEL, DWIGHT AND JAM!
SUMMER OVER YET?????
Webisodes too short…
I NEED Michael, Dwight and Jam!!!
…Summer over yet?
These are my three from yesterday:
Webisodes: Not fun.
Where’s Michael being a jerk?
I want the show back
Who stole three thousand?
Oscar says it’s not funny.
He’s right – it isn’t.
Jim, pam, dwight, michael -
All on summer vacation.
We’re left with the rest.
———-
And my new ones:
NBC website
Tries something new with our show.
But it fails, badly.
The Webisodes: eh.
Better than watching grass grow
But not much better
Stanley’s all messed up
Angela turns all creepy
Webisodes are weird…
The Office is great.
Webisodes are not the same
I need DVDs
And I thought I’d try a rhyming poem, just for fun:
Three minutes isn’t enough
For an Office episode
The webisodes are rough
like an unpaved DC road.
Now they might start being OK,
At least I hope they might,
I long to see the day
When we see them interview Dwight
(I should mention here, you know
If you haven’t noticed me say
Dwight is the best on the show
My favorite any day)
We don’t watch The Office for Oscar
Though Kevin is usually fun
So I’ll be happy when this whole
websodes series is done.

I posted this on nbc board, hope it’s okay to share here too.
bad Office withdrawl -
feeling like a large package
from Todd F Packer
My life is a bore,
without Kevin’s odd smile,
I miss the Office.
Stamford is far, so
Is September. How odd that
Both begin with S…
Hey, eattimes, guess what?
You did get Kevin’s smile.
See Webisode 4
dwightK
Haikus, webisodes…
Poor substitutes for a JAM
thing; Any port in a storm.
Webisodes – they suck.
I wonder if Michael Scott
works for NBC
An experiment -
that’s what the webisodes are.
They’re like Frankenstein.
we don’t like them, no.
But Office is so great that
We watch anyway.
Watching The Office
Reading all the articles
Hurry Season 3!
I miss Dwight badly….
“Question: When will you return?”
September 14.
always in my head
jim, pam and jokes
i anticipate
jim, stay in scranton
pam, dont get married
will i be surprised?
Phyllis is funny
But Meredith, not so much
Bring back Jim and Pam!
Webisodes – I’d rather
see the Season 2 menus
on the DVD.
tired of repeats
the office needs to come back
Jim needs marry Pam
Pam is posing nude??
Office (webisodes) sucking?
What is going on????
Please don’t drag it out
after Jim kisses Pam, they
belong together.
Dwight bobblehead is
not enough to entertain
me till September
Kayla -
Never mind the Dwight
Bobblehead. The webisodes
won’t entertain you.
DwightK,
Webisodes, reruns
will have to do for now till
the new season starts.
Can’t wait to see what
happens after Jim, Pam kiss
will she run or stay?
Will Michael stay with
real estate woman or go
and find his love Jan
Dwight and Angela
try and keep their love secret
let office find out.
Ryan can come out
and sing Dwight loves Angela
since Dwight blabbed on him.
Three Variations on a Theme:
If they’d worked on the
Third season instead of the
webisodes – oh man.
Why did they waste time
With the webisodes? Season
3 could be done now.
All that work wasted
on the stupid webisodes
not on season 3…
And a rebuttal:
It’s either reruns,
or reruns and websodes.
We have something, right?
Cut the webisodes
A break. NBC didn’t
NEED to do something.
I didn’t like them
At first, But number 5, well,
It wasn’t so bad.
Can Angela and Roy
fix all of the office mess,
and free jim and pam?
Will Roy notice that
Pam is not home but with Jim
get him suspicious?
I missed a full week
And we’re still not voting yet?
I think we are done.
I thought I’d miss it
But no; at least now I
Can vote for myself.
