Slow But Speeding

Jim & Pam getting married/ having a baby is a bad thing 
Don’t get me wrong, I’ve enjoyed the Jim & Pam romance from the beginning but this is the first sign that ‘The Office’ is on it’s downturn in terms of quality. Having a wedding and throwing a baby into the mix is going to hurt the show. Anytime a sitcom tries to attempt pulling this off it fails (usually very badly). Maybe some people really care about this plot line, but I have zero interest in the Jim & Pam wedding/ baby hilarity. Let’s see an Oscar and Andy first date, then I will be genuinely impressed.

I have to say I think I agree.  I have been nervous about this season and how they’ll handle the wedding, etc.  Though, I will say, I loved the premiere!
