#2 Comedy on TV


A month ago this show might not have made the list. But in the last four weeks The Office has skyrocketed to #2. Dwight Schrute is now the #2 funniest character on television. The Halloween episode when he dressed as a Sith lord from Star Wars was just brilliant. This is a quote from Dwight's blog, "In many ways, I am like the epiglotis. Small,unappreciated, not well thought of or respected, but POWERFUL. So powerful that without me you'd have food in your lungs." Classic stuff. The show is filled with awkward pauses and great characters. In many ways it is like the timeless Sealab 2021. Steve Carrell is the real catalyst of the show however. The former Daily Show correspondant is slowly taking over the world. Thank Heavens that NBC decided to not cancel this show, it's only going to keep getting better.
