Season 1: Episode 4 "The Alliance"

Michael just keeps on trying to be nice but his jokes are just going too far. I thought it was nice that he threw a party for Meredith but planning it out, he was already acting horrible with getting a ice cream cake even though he knew that Meredith was allergic to diary products. And then at the party she read what he wrote down at the card and it was a bad joke, like really bad. And then he insisted after that he had more jokes he could of said on the card so he pulls out a piece of paper and starts to say the other jokes he had and they were even worse than the one he had wrote originally on the card. After 4 episodes my perception on Michael is that I think he is funny but he's just a goof ball who jokes around the office but sometimes take it a little too far at times. And I don't think he doesn't know what he is doing around the office as a manager. My advice for him is that he needs to be careful in what he says/do because I am telling you it's going to bite him soon, he may lose his job because of the things he says and dues. My prediction for Michael is that he's still going to act silly and say things that may not seem offensive to him but in reality it is, but as i'm saying his position may be in jeopardy. The downsizing that his corporate is ta;king about, maybe it's on, maybe they want to fire him he just doesn't know.

Jim got played in this episode. It was pretty funny that he was toying with Dwight into forming an Alliance just to make Dwight do absurd things but towards the end the tables turned drastically as he was laughing with Pam and his fiancé came into the office and was mad that Jim was getting close to her and giggling. Jim explained that he was forming a fake alliance to try to calm down the situation and as he speaking Dwight right there and Pam fiance ask Dwight if this is true and he said he had no idea what Jim was talking about, which led to Pam fiance leaving in anger and took Pam with him. I felt that it was good that Jim is starting to be more interesting as the episodes move along, he's becoming boring as I thought he would be but I warned him that trying to get at Pam is not going to work and looked what happened. My advice to him is that he needs to apologize to the fiance if he wants to be friends with Pam again. With Dwight he needs to say sorry as well for being mean to him. My prediction for Jim is that he is going to start to get more interesting, maybe he will be more active in the office as in work wise or just messing around too. I still think it's funny even though the actions he do maybe harsh.
