Back to basics and back to the enjoyable larger story.

Great. Awesome, maybe the best series I've ever seen.

Writers of this show have wild imagination to still produce a lot of gags and new happenings in this series.

This season wa absolutely one of the funniest. It only started to get funny in the middle of it butwhen it did, it was very funny. Really liked it.

Definitely an astonishing season, hilarious, interesting, and definitely something you want to watch.
-
Not only does the show top its last season but does so in amazing fashion. The Office in this season makes some of its best episodes like Stress Relief Part 1, Stress Relief Part 2, The Surplus, Michael Scott Paper Company, and Broke. These episodes provide a deep dive into what makes each character, especially Michael.
-
The tides turn in a season of big changes, a more consistent sense of enjoyable humor, and all-time best series moments.
-
Awesome experience, the definitive comedy series.
-
It really is just one of those shows that despite watching it dozens of times before, you can always turn on a random episode and you'll find yourself watching it again for the 13th time and still wouldn't mind. Season 5 was at the peak of it all, Steve Carrell's humour is something that always sticks to me even though I've heard him say his joke countless times. Could be dementia, or I'm living in '50 First Dates, I'll never know and I do not mind at all. 10/10
