Review - The Office Season 6 Episode 10 Murder

It looks like we'll have an arc with something happening to Dunder Mifflin. David Wallace confirmed that the company is in deep trouble, so there'll probably be a change up. Whether we see the Michael Scott Paper Company again, or a genius idea to save the company, I'm sure it'll be funny.

Michael decides to change the mood by orchestrating an elaborate role-playing game that Jim disapproves of until he learns the news. We got to see many accents including Oscar's high pitched one. It was highly enjoyable watching everyone pretend to be someone else for just one episode.

There was a tiny sidestory with Erin and Andy dancing around each other. They aren't quite sure what the other thinks about each other, and in the end, nothing happens. Eventually it'll happen, but not before these hapless individuals figure it out.

Creed is one of those characters that doesn't have much screen time, but whenever he does something it is always funny and memorable. I was wondering where he was the whole episode since I knew he would have a ridiculous reaction to Michael's murder game, so when he finally showed up, I knew it would it good. He comes in, and Michael as part of the game tells him he's a suspect for a murder. Then we see Creed run out to his car and drive off. It literally was less than a minute long, but it was definitely funny.

I absolutely loved the opening and ending. Dwight teaching martial arts and then Jim getting him to fight himself was hilarious. And then the ending... Dwight, Michael, Andy, and yes, even Pam were so involved in their pretend guns. They looked way too serious which is all the fun.

Score: 9.6/10
