The Office "Fun Run" Review (TV)

About?: Season Three Finale Recap, As the job Michael Scott (Steve Carell) is being interviewed for is here, in which it is his girlfriend Jan Levinsons (Melora Hardin) old job. Jim (John Krasinski) and his girlfriend Karen (Rashida Jones) are too in the running for the job but as Jim was being interviewed he realizes his feelings for Pam (Jenna Fischer) and finally asks her out on a date. As for the job, old Intern Ryan Howard (B.J. Novak) got the job. From here the new season of The Office starts. As Michael comes into work he hits a co-worker. This leads to Michael starting up a Fun Run to cure Rabies.

My Thoughts: As a fan of the old Office, I have also gotten to like the American version. Steve Carell is hilarious in every scene he's in. I would have never though I would laugh about rabies and this episode makes it possible. The main Pam and Jim question as well as Karen's was answered and I expected it to happen, Jim and Pam getting together.

Overall: "Fun Run" is a solid episode with a good amount of laughs and each of the characters get a good amount of screen time. This episode does have a answer to the whole Jim and Pam "thing" which was good. This episode, "Fun Run" is a good way of starting off the new season on a good note. I give this episode a:
4 out of 5
