10 Best Episodes of ‘The Office’ to Watch This Valentine’s Day
There’s a handful of shows that can be lumped into the ‘most iconic on television’ category.
Friends, Parks and Rec, The Good Place, and, of course, The Office.
The hilarious shenanigans that go down at Dunder Mifflin Paper Company are unmatched, as are the employees.
While you might not think of the show as the most romantic, it’s had its fair share of romantic moments that will leave you with a flurry of emotions come Valentine’s Day.
But also, watch the whole damn show because it’s a masterpiece.
Season 1 – The Pilot
The pilot isn’t romantic, per se, but it’s where it all starts. We meet Jim and Pam, we get to explore their relationship, and we pick up on all that sexual tension between friends who desperately want more even if they aren’t ready to say it out loud.
Season 2 – Valentine’s Day
This one is a given considering the title and that it’s the first V-Day themed episode. Michael visits the New York City branch and gives out little holiday gifts while his employees celebrate the holiday of love together. The most iconic moment? Dwight gives Angela a key to his place! Also, Ryan and Kelly get together!
Season 2 – Casino Night
It would be a crime if we didn’t include the episode where Jim professes his love for Pam (after Roy leaves her hanging!). This is a pivotal moment in their relationship.
Season 3 – The Job
Which brings us to this episode where Jim and Pam after he finally asks her out on a date. Best of all, she says yes! Also, they’re cute notes… you hear that? That’s my heart fluttering!
Season 5 – Weight Loss
The episode, which spans an hour, is dedicated to Jim and Pam’s relationship and includes the proposal, which may not be picture-perfect but it’s everything for this couple.
Season 5 – Blood Drive
Michael’s first Valentine’s Day since he and Holly broke up weighs heavy him. To get his mind off of things, he donates blood and attends a singles mixer, which takes quite an interesting turn as he spends the episode looking for the woman of his dreams.
Season 6 – Niagara (2 Parts)
There’s nothing more romantic on Valentine’s Day than a wedding. Fans who have been with the show since the beginning knew this was going to be a romantic affair. The wedding is in Niagra Falls and you’re bound to shed quite a few tears in the process no matter how many times you’ve seen the episode. Also, Jim’s “Plan A?” Sobs.
Season 6 – Delivery
First comes love, then comes marriage, then comes a baby in a baby carriage. Pam gives birth to their first child and the episode is a true treat for day one fans.
Season 7 – PDA
You can’t avoid PDA on Valentine’s Day. Michael and Holly go over the top and are bad from touching each other. It’s for the best.
Season 9 – Couples Discount
The last official Valentine’s Day episode marked the last V-Day episode of the series. Andy’s return upsets his co-workers and girlfriend, while Jim and Pam’s celebrations hit a bit of a snag.
Supergirl is taking her final bow.
The sixth season of The CW series will be its last. The season is set to premiere in 2021 due to delays following the COVID-19 pandemic and Melissa Benoist’s pregnancy.
Per Deadline, the series is set to begin filming in Vancouver starting next week pending a deal with local unions and SAG.
Reportedly, the series would film around Benoist, who would join later.
The outlet notes that the sixth and final season is expected to have 20 episodes.
Supergirl marks the second Arrowverse show to come to an end as Arrow ended its eight-year run earlier this year. It also comes after the drama surrounding Batwoman, which replaced its titular actress Ruby Rose with a new masked vigilante to be played by Javicia Leslie in the upcoming sophomore season.
Supergirl first debuted in October 2015 on CBS before switching over to The CW for season 2 and beyond.
Benoist took to Instagram to comment on the final season news stating: “To say it has been an honor portraying this iconic character would be a massive understatement. Seeing the incredible impact the show has had on young girls around the world has always left me humbled and speechless.
She’s had that impact on me, too. She’s taught me strength I didn’t know I had, to find hope in the darkest of places, and that we are stronger when we’re united. What she stands for pushes all of us to be better. She has changed my life for the better, and I’m forever grateful.
I’m so excited that we get to plan our conclusion to this amazing journey, and I cannot wait for you to see what we have in store. I promise we’re going to make it one helluva final season. ♥️ el mayarah 💪 @supergirlcw”
We can’t wait to see what the final season featuring our favorite female heroine holds.
During the 2020 Emmy Awards, ABC debuted several promos for the networks upcoming crime thriller drama Big Sky.
Hailing from the creator of Big Little Lies David E. Kelley and starring Ryan Phillippe as Detective Hoyt, the series looks like a promising addition to the fall schedule.
Read the synopsis now: “Private detectives Cassie Dewell and Cody Hoyt join forces with Cody’s estranged wife and ex-cop, Jenny Hoyt, to search for two sisters who have been kidnapped by a truck driver on a remote highway in Montana. When they discover that these are not the only girls who have disappeared in the area, they must race against the clock to stop the killer before another woman is taken. Based on the series of books by C.J. Box, the series stars Katheryn Winnick and Kylie Bunbury.”
