Over the course of nine seasons of The Office, Dwight Schrute, who at first seems like the most stable character, goes through one of the show's most interesting character development arcs. From a cynical and frankly unpleasant corporate worker, and a clearly over-the-top character, he becomes a very peculiar, yet humane and not at all negative hero.
And his romance with Angela – originally used as a comedic parallel to Jim and Pam's "serious" arc – eventually became as important to the show as the love story between the two main characters. In fact, this romantic storyline was so popular with fans that the show's creators decided to use it to wrap up The Office.
But no matter how much the audience loved Angela and Dwight's duet, one inconsistency in their story haunted many.

Hello! It’s been a little while since we’ve had a new Catalog From The Beyond, hasn’t it? To be honest, in a year when it felt like my brain cells were squeezing out of my head like a tube of toothpaste, I had to take a break from some of the workload. But with the dawning of the New Year, I’m ready to hit the reset button and dive back into the Catalog.
I think it only fair to ease into things, however, so the following take won’t be the spiciest one I’ve ever put forth: Ken Foree seems like a pretty cool dude. After winning our hearts as the stoic Peter in George A. Romero’s classic Dawn of the Dead, he’s stayed there pretty much ever since in movies like From Beyond, Leatherface: Texas Chainsaw Massacre III, Lords of Salem, and...

“Jesus Loves You More Than You Will Know”
By Raymond Benson
Although it has been released before on Blu-ray, the “Criterion treatment” is always welcome for a classic, well-known film such as The Graduate. Quite simply, it’s one of the most beloved pictures of the 60s, one that hit a nerve in the public consciousness. It helped define those wildly changing years at the end of the decade, illustrating how the country’s youth rebelled against an established society that they were expected to join. The Graduate is a landmark of the New Hollywood movement that took over the studios in those years and held reign through the 70s.
Director Mike Nichols, fresh from his success as a debut helmsman for Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? (1966), gave us a romantic comedy unlike anything we’d seen previously—mainly because of the radically daring casting of an unknown actor named Dustin Hoffman.

I was very impressed with “The Boat” because it managed to take two ongoing plots that I’ve been less than an ardent fan of and made each of them successfully entertaining though for different reasons.
The episode’s opener found Oscar taking the initiative on acknowledging the elephant in the room of the documentary crew finally catching he and Angela’s husband, Robert Lipton, The [State] Senator, embraced in a passionate kiss (despite Oscar’s reptilian Halloween costume). In confessing to the camera and asking for the crew’s discretion, Kevin sheepishly appears from the alley eating ice-cream and having heard Oscar’s confession. Oscar’s sole response of, “Why?” before the scene cut to the opening credits was pretty funny, but this cold open was more about establishing one of the episode’s main conflicts, Oscar trying to keep a lid on his affair despite...

“Fundraiser” is another Office episode that follows the staff outside the actual branch to – you guessed it – a fundraiser held by Angela’s probably gay husband, Robert Lipton, better known as The (State) Senator. I hate to sound like a broken record, but this was another pretty lackluster episode as it offered little and delivered even less in terms of any character or story development as well as laughs. Even when the plots this season have been thin or redundant, at least there were usually some worthwhile punch lines, but not this time.
After over 160 episodes of a series I totally understand the writers wanting, even needing, to switch up the setting but even considering the large amount of episodes this series has, a setting switch should have more purpose than setting up one joke in which Dwight doesn’t understand how a silent auction works...
