Based on the pace those people are going in the photo, I assume this episode will be in real time.

Yes. Wait... No?

No one bitches when someone makes a thread about a movie 3 months before it comes out. But someone makes a TV show thread 3 days before the show airs and it's the coming of the apocalypse.

What's the BFD?

Because TV show threads basically have one purpose, which is to discuss the episode in question. When you post an episode thread early, you get 7 pages of "OMG can't wait!!!1!" responses i.e. the Lost threads.

This is several days too early. I will reopen the thread Thursday morning, or a new one can be started again.

If episode threads are started so early they bump off discussion of current episodes farther down the page and there really isn't much to discuss until people can see the episode. Most people like to read the thread after watching the episode, and several pages of "Can't wait" is tedious to wade through before you get to reading people's actual responses.

So does Toby get left behind at The Office again?

The funniest show on TV is back.

(In Kelly voice) This Day is Bananas - B-A-N-A-N-A-Anas - This Day is Bananas.

Did you check out any of those clips I linked to?

Spoiler:
"Check that out. 'Look at me, I'm Toby. I'm stretching. I know what I'm doing.' Why is he even here?"

Yeah, he's in the race--despite getting pantsed at the starting line by Michael, and also despite a botched sabotage attempt by Dwight. . .


Michael's never-ending and unwarranted hatred of Toby is one of my favorite little sub-sub-plots of the entire show.
