Amazon.com: After a shaky first season of finding its footing, and a second season of establishing itself as one of the funniest shows on TV, the third season of The Office finds the show in its strongest form yet, thanks in large part to the addition of some new characters and stronger plotlines centered on office romances. A corporate merger brings the Stamford staff to the Scranton office of Dunder-Mifflin a quarter of the way through the season giving a nice boost to the season's arc of story lines, especially the addition of Andy (Ed Helms, another Daily Show alum in a role that seems custom made for him) who serves as yet another foil to Dwight (Rainn Wilson) in his unending fight for Michael's approval. As the season begins, the focus is more on Michael (Steve Carell) and his unique "leadership" style in the Scranton office. "A good boss gruntles the disgruntled," and despite his best intentions, he proceeds to somehow screw it up, as in the opening episode, "Gay Witch Hunt," in which he accidentally outs a gay employee. In the second episode, "The Convention," Michael tries to get the party started at the Mid-Market Office Supply Convention ("fun jeans"), and ends up revealing his insecurity about Jim's (John Krasinski) decision to move to Stamford. It leads up to "The Coup," where Dwight meets with Michael's Boss Jan (Melora Hardin) in a misguided attempt to take control of the office. The merger of the two offices into the Scranton location provides the fuel needed to continue the Jim and Pam (Jenna Fischer) subplot as Jim returns with his new girlfriend, Karen (Rashida Jones) who also transferred, and with Pam no longer engaged to Roy, the tension among them increases significantly. Other major plot points this season include: Dwight shows his true feelings for Angela in an excellent climax to one of the funniest subplots on the show; Michael negotiates a raise after learning he barely makes more than his subordinates; new office suck-up Andy is forced into anger management classes; and finally, in what may be the most bizarre company retreat in history, a day at the beach ends with Pam revealing her true feelings for Jim in front of the entire office. The season wraps up in unpredictable fashion when Karen, Michael, and Jim all travel to headquarters to interview for the same position. The strength of this season just continues to solidify The Office's place as the preeminent satire of today's cubicle culture. --Daniel Vancini
the office - season 3 is the best season ad the funniest,reat laugh! i had a blast watching the 3rd season of the OFFICE.
it's the best season by far and the cast are simply top notch!!!
Fast Delivery, Perfect Condition Was very pleased to recieve this item within about 1 week of ordering it, especially seeing as i live half a world away! Disc's we're all in perfect working order.
As for the product itself...well it's the Office, what's not to like! Laughed myself silly so often, definitely one of my favourite television series, and contains some of the best episodes of the Office.
Full of Heart I was slow to catch on to The Office after season one, but then, Season 2 captured me entirely. The moment I finished watching the last episode of Season 2, I ran out and bought the third season. And I had to drive to another town to get it, and I was almost entirely broke. But I had to see it, and of course, it was all worth it.
The same things I admired so much about Season 2 I admire here. The Office is just about the only sitcom I can think of that has created such a meaningful and coherent storyline over several seasons. The Pam and Jim story is what drives this show, and the writers, producers, actors, and everyone else have outdone themselves in developing that story logically and meaningfully. The intrusion of Karen into that story has flipped things in a way that have allowed Pam and Jim to grow and learn to see their hearts. Really, this is a show that has more heart to it than any other currently on television.
The final two episodes of the season, especially, are wonderful. I can't tell you how many times I've watched Pam's speech at the end of "Beach Games." What a scene!
Of course, everything else is wonderful, too. Dwight has been brought along nicely, and the Michael and Jan relationship provides tons of laughs. I think that the writers made a smart move creating Andy. Dwight's become a little too likeable to be quite the goofy antagonist he was in the first couple of seasons. Andy handles some of that load well. The funniest moment of the whole series, in my opinion, is at the end of "Cocktails" when Andy reappears. I called about three people (who'd already seen the show) to talk about it afterward.
So, this is another wonderful season for The Office. It continues to be my favorite thing on tv.
Funny as always Since we can't see the series on TV this is the next best way of watching it. Look forward to Season 4.
Another Laugh Out Loud Season for The Office I enjoy The Office so much, that I've added it to my TV DVD collection...in which only 2 other shows are a part of. There aren't many shows that I can watch over & over, but this show is one of them. Bad mood, long day, bored? I flip on The Office!
Season 3 was a different season, as we watched Jim go to another branch and we met some new employees/characters there. But, while at first I was skeptical, by the end of the season I really enjoyed the new additions to the cast. I also enjoyed a bit of the break in the monotony...I mean I love the Scranton branch, but only so much can happen, this brought in some new storylines to liven things up and keep the show fresh for viewers.
If you like The Office, I recommend buying a DVD, like I said, it's great to flip it on to a favorite episode when you're bored or bummed out. Laughter is the best medicine, and how many shows out there lately can make you laugh out loud?? If you haven't watched the show yet- I recommend starting with Season 2, Season 1 was a bit slow...so you may want to skip to the good stuff.
Cheers to the cast and writers of this show, keep up the great work!!
