Ain’t It Cool News has some info on the hourlong baby episode arriving on March 4th. Plus look at those names for the directors of tonight’s ep and the two parters. This show continues to attract big and growing (TWSS) names. See it here.

Sabre is swooping into Scranton from Florida, and I’m anxious to see if the new owners will embrace the hometown flavor and traditions. I doubt it, but it would be nice if they sent Christian Slater into town. He could be filmed spouting the empty company blather as he strolled the Steamtown Mall, or dined at Cooper’s Seafood while wearing the famous paper lobster hat. Or, sitting on a barstool at Poor Richard’s. The local Scrantonians would love the celebrity sighting, and Michael Scott could have a hand in the creative editing. Yeah, “Christian Slater Shakes Up Lazy Scranton”… a Michael Scott joint. Let’s have Gabe present this idea to Jo Bennett!

Hey LITO,

I know its been a while since I’ve posted, but I just wanted to take a moment and share with you my thoughts on how the sixth season of The Office is shaping up:

Up until “Sabre,” I had been slowly losing my faith in the production values of the show. To be honest, I have found this season to be somewhat stagnant with new jokes and last week’s episode, ‘The Banker’, had me wondering if this would be the last season of our beloved show.

“Robert’s Recap” has a nice alliterative “ring” to it, don’t you think? Also, I figured it sounded really good, almost a rhyming phrase, as “Sabre” ~ Robert’s Recap… until I found out the name was pronounced “SAY-br,” not “SAH-brah.” That kind of threw me off my game for a little while. But as a professional recapper with a responsibility to our LITO constituents, I decided to get right back up on the horse and ride this recap home.

Since “The Banker” was a “clip show,” I thought I would do something special here; Instead of writing any new observations, I would just do a “mash-up” of older Scrantonicities. Gather together a few of my too-few good observations, and link them with some new comments. But that just seemed, uh… “lazy.” So instead, to honor “The Banker,” I’ll call this column… “Lazy Scrantonicity.”

Hmmm… “The Banker”, where to begin? I hadn’t read anything on this new episode before viewing it, so I took a moment right before it started to at least see what the caption was. Here it is, in case you missed it:

“When a potential buyer arrives at Dunder Mifflin, Michael, Dwight, Andy & Pam team up to win his favor by highlighting their top-drawer contacts. Meanwhile, Michael reflects on memorable moments at the office.”

Now, it’s the last sentence of the above caption that is important here. When I read this, it didn’t dawn on me that they were talking about an old-fashioned clip show!

These are the tidbits as posted on slashfilm, my favorite movie site, here.

In particular, the Ricky Gervais news is very interesting….

Kate Flannery has brought the boozed up, over sexed personality of Meredith Palmer to the role of Mrs. Claus.

The other night she talked with Jay Leno about how she warms things up at the North Pole.

Now that’s one role I never pictured Kate doing. I thought she brought real charm and pizazz to the character.

Have a happy holiday everyone,

I meant to post this yesterday as a reminder to tune in to The Tonight Show last night as our very own Jim Halpert was a guest on Conan O’Brain’s couch. Although not in character, we were treated to some very funny Jim faces as well as a unique Marrionette impression, which I believe should be added to John Krasinski’s resume as one of his many talents. We also get a sneak peak at his new movie It’s Complicated opening next Friday. In case you missed it, here are the clips.

Enjoy ~
