Episode # 44 of THAT'S WHAT SHE SAID finds both Matt and Kevin updating their resumes. Take my internship, please? It's job fair season in Scranton, PA, and Michael's attempts to lure the best and the brightest into the Dunder Mifflin summer program go about as well as... pretty much everything Michael attempts. Jim, down and disgraced thanks to Ryan's dirty tricks, decides to TRY, Andy deals with a mean case of the nifty blisties, Kevin makes rent, Pam looks for a new job, and Dwangela... well, they don't actually DO anything... but MAN, THE TENSION!

If you haven't seen this on NBC.com yet, it's pretty amusing.
Something incredibly bizarre is going on with the comments this past week, so I have once again turned on comment filtering. That means that I will have to "approve" your comment for it to appear on the blogplage. I know it kind of sucks and limits the back and forth discussion, but I don't know what else to do. We're seeing tons of double and triple posts, giant random texts, and all sorts of other odd stuff. When it gets sorted out, we can go back to normal.
Many people were and are still upset about NBC yanking their content from Apple's iTunes store. The feud has been going back and forth, with rumors flying it may return, or may not, or whatever the case may be on that particular day. In the meantime, NBC has pimped their shows out to just about everyone ELSE, including Amazon's UnBox service, Hulu.com, cell phone video streaming... you name it.NBC is now teaming up with Microsoft to sell their shows on the Zune (Microsoft's MP3 player) video store. Not really that big of a deal, except that NBC is demanding Microsoft install some kind of filter on their Zune devices which will somehow block the device from playing any video file the filter believes is "unauthentic." Never mind the consumer's legal right to rip their own DVDs, for example. If NBC doesn't like it, it won't work. Why Microsoft is bending over and taking this isn't a big mystery (they're desperate, and have already kowtowed to Universal Music's demand to give them a cut of sales... a "pirate" tax, if you will), but it seems to me to set a pretty dangerous precedent. EDIT: According to the NYT article, Microsoft is apparently denying they agreed to do anything more than "discuss" the issue with NBC.
This one sounds pretty promising-- Jim, Andy and Kevin on the links? A situation rife with comedic possibilities if I've ever heard one. From NBC.com:JOB FAIR 9/8c TV-PG 05.08.2008 Jim (John Krasinski) hits the links with Andy (Ed Helms) and Kevin (Brian Baumgartner) to try and land his biggest client ever. Meanwhile, Michael (Golden Globe winner Steve Carell) sets up a booth at a local job fair, which happens to be at Pam's (Jenna Fischer) alma mater, to find "the best and the brightest" for Dunder Mifflin's summer internship. Rainn Wilson, B.J. Novak, Leslie David Baker, Angela Kinsey, Creed Bratton, Oscar Nunez, Kate Flannery, Mindy Kaling, Paul Lieberstein, Phyllis Smith and Craig Robinson also star. -----------Leave your comments below, and join Kevin and me in the TWSS chat after the show.
Looks like Kevin was right in his speculation about Dwight's politics: on the Daily Show With Jon Stewart tonight, Republican presidential nominee John McCain (with tongue firmly planted in cheek) said that his running mate in the 2008 election is going to be Dwight Schrute. Well, he couldn't be any worse than Dick Cheney, could he?
Friend of the show Brian Howard over at the Remote Access TV blog offers up yet another interview with a recent THE OFFICE guest star, this time talking to Five Families member Paul "Cool Guy Paul" Faust.Head on over to Brian's blog for all the details.
Episode # 43 of THAT'S WHAT SHE SAID finds both Matt and Kevin polishing up their back-up glasses. When a sassy, upset black man named STANLEY lets out his smelly frustrations on his clueless, purple boss MICHAEL, it's up to Dwight to eat the nice catfood. Errr... let's try that again. When Stanley erupts, Michael has to find a way to deal with the office insurrection. Dwight plots his revenge against Andy, Pam gets beaten with the ugly stick, and Jim faces a humiliating beat-down of his own from a hobbit-loving half-beard. How can Jim and Ryan solve their differences? Two words -- fluffy fingers. Incidental music provided by the Podshow Podsafe Music Network.

Dwight buying and then flipping Andy's Nissan Xterra was one of the funniest bits to be found in DID I STUTTER? this past week. Dwight's Jedi mind-trick sales techniques, the "three way bidding war"... pure comedy gold.Inspired by the episode, the actual OWNER of said Xterra (one of the hairstylists on THE OFFICE) has put the car up on eBay as well. If you happen to be lucky enough (or foolish enough, given the current bid price) to purchase this vehicle, you'll also receive a copy of the DID I STUTTER script signed by the whole cast, the actual prop "for sale" sign used on the show, and a few other props that were used in filming (like a Cornell window sticker).If you live int he Van Nuys, CA area and just HAVE to own a piece of OFFICE history to drive around in, this might be the chance you've been waiting for. Hurry... bidding closes on MAY 8th!(currently at $15,300)
