the Office for slideshow
1stapler jello edit
Jim's Jell-O Prank
Season 1, "Pilot"
How does Jim get Dwight's stapler to suspend itself perfectly in the center of the gelatin? You've got to admire dedication to the craft.
2jimimpersonatesdwight edit
Jim as Dwight
Season 3, "Product Recall"
"Bears. Beets. Battlestar Galactica." Stop laughing; as Dwight reminds us, "Identity theft is not a joke!"
3jimpamkiss edit
Jim and Pam Kiss
Season 2, "Casino Night
Just as Jim's bare-all confession of love to Pam (and the tears that follow) lays us low, their unexpected (incredibly hot) kiss a few minutes later has us soaring.
4jimpampropose edit
Jim Proposes
Season 5, "Weight Loss"
We knew he had the ring. She knew it was coming. So when Jim takes a knee at an interstate gas station in the rain, why does it take our breath away?
5jimpampreggers edit
Pam's Pregnant!
Season 5, "Company Picnic"
Who needs to hear the actual words when we can see Pam and Jim's faces upon hearing the unexpected news – as well as his happy and shaky voice when he tells Dwight to "send in the subs"?
6theofficeweddingdance
"Forever" Wedding dance
Season 6, "Niagara"
We never want to hear Chris Brown's "Forever" ever again... unless we're watching the procession that puts a perfect cap on Pam and Jim's calamity-filled wedding weekend.
7goodbye michael
Goodbye, Michael
Season 7, "Goodbye, Michael"
We can't pick one individual adieu from all of Michael's parting shots, so let's call this whole episode one big moment – and a fitting farewell to the World's Best Boss.
8dwight's concussion edit
Dwight's Concussion
Season 2, "The Injury"
Dwight was nice. And it was weird.
9diversity day edit
Diversity Day
Season 1, "Diversity Day"
Kelly is smarter, Michael is meaner... and it's still funny (and completely un-PC).
10fun run michael dwight edit
Michael Fuels for the 5K
Season 4, "Fun Run"
Michael's "carbo-loading" choice of fettuccine alfredo comes back to haunt him – but we'll spare you the photo of the actual moment.
11theofficemerger
The Stamford and Scranton Branches Merge
Season 3, "The Merger"
Dunder Mifflin's Stamford employees – including Tony, who's totally humiliated by Michael's team-building activity – start dropping like flies. Scranton: Only the strong survive.
12michaeloscarkiss
Michael and Oscar Kiss
Season 3, "Gay Witch Hunt"
Michael goes out of his way to prove he's cool with Oscar's sexuality. (Spoiler alert: He's not.)
14threatlevelmidnight
Threat Level Midnight
Season 7, "Threat Level Midnight"
In Pam's words: "We thought it was a comedy. Everything pointed to it being a comedy." Eleven years in the making, Michael's masterpiece was everything we hoped it would be.
15the office sweeney todd
Pass the Bottle at Sweeney Todd
Season 7, "Andy's Play"
Though the cellphone bit was funny, our favorite moment came when the Dunder Mifflin gang's shared wine bottle wound up noisily rolling around the community theater's floor.
16michael foot injury
Michael Cooks His Foot
Season 2, "The Injury"
We'll never look at our George Foreman Grill the same way again.
THE OFFICE "Goodbye Toby" Episode 18-19
Holly Misunderstands Kevin
Season 5, "Weight Loss"
Newbie Holly draws a conclusion about Kevin many of us came to long ago.
18michaelbankruptcy edit
Michael Declares Bankruptcy
Season 4, "Money"
With relationship woes and financial difficulty weighing on him, Michael takes Creed's advice literally. (Thank goodness Oscar was there to set him straight.)
19dundies edit
The Dundies
Season 2, "The Dundies"
From Michael's song parodies to a drunken Pam falling off her stool and getting banned from Chili's for life, the Dunder Mifflin awards ceremony deserves a trophy of its own.
20officeolympics
Office Olympics
Season 2, "Office Olympics"
Lochte/Phelps pales in comparison to Kevin/Phyllis, at least when it comes to Flonkerton.
21localad
The Local Ad Jingle
Season 4, "Local Ad"
"The people person's paper people..."
22michael holly proposal edit
Michael proposes to Holly
Season 7, "Garage Sale"
Michael's proposal to his true love was just like the man himself: sweet, almost a failure and liable to do harm to innocent bystanders.
23anightinny
A Night in New York
Season 4, "Night Out"
Because any night's a good night that ends with Dwight, Michael and Ryan in bed together.
24nellie taco
Nellie Eats a Taco
Season 8, "Fundraiser"
We'll save you the trouble, Nellie: There's no dainty way to eat a taco. But we love you for trying.
25david and robert as robert leaves
David Returns, Robert Leaves for "Charity" Work
Season 8, "Free Family Portrait Studio"
David, we've missed you! Robert, we'll... see you later!
26stanleystutter
Stanley Did Not Stutter
Season 4, "Did I Stutter"
It takes a lot to make us side with Michael, but Stanley manages to make it happen.
