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

Only gets better April 1, 2009

I was a little late to really fall in love with "The Office" not due to the show but just it being on the same time as many other shows I enjoy.
People often get "Office Space" confused with "the office". Steve Carell and his team weekly entertain and it never seems to stop with just one character's issues that week.
I believe Season 3 is where Michael & Jan really show their colors & their relationship.
And who can keep a straight face when Michael does "That's what she said.." to every sentence?
One of the best shows on Television! March 26, 2009

We started watching the office this year, in 2009 and by March we are already on season 3. It's a fantastic show! And the quality even increases over the seasons. Get. It. Now. :)
The Office - Season 3 March 2, 2009
J. S. BECK (Avon, IN USA)
We bought this for our 15 year old son for Valentine's Day. He loved it! We watch it together as a family, and we have all grown to love The Office. This is an hilarious sitcom which will keep you laughing. We bought a used copy, but I can honestly say, it looks like brand new. Plays like brand new, and I would think it was brand new if I hadn't been the one who ordered it. The price was a great deal through Amazon - far cheaper than store prices - even with shipping costs. I highly recommend purchasing it through Amazon. You'll get your money's worth, and you will receive it very quickly. I was so impressed with how quick they ship items through Amazon.

E. T. Higgins (south of the border)
short and sweet. this is the best comedy on network tv since the 1st 5 years of "all in the family."
steve carell is a fine actor(see "dan in real life") and a comic genius.
also, excellent writing and a fine supporting cast make this not only the funniest show on network tv, but also the finest show on network tv.
kudos ,also, for ricky gervais and stephen merchant for not only creating the show on the bbc, but for exporting it to our needy shores. needy in that american tv was in dire need of a good comedy series. instead, we got a great comedy series.
ps: please check out gervais' and merchant's english comedy "extras."
i found it to be even funnier than "the office." high praise indeed!
