The Office Superfan Episodes Season 1 Episode 1

Alright, Office addicts! You thought you knew everything about Michael Scott and the gang at Dunder Mifflin? Think again! Let's dive into the very first Superfan episode, Season 1 Episode 1, and unearth some hilarious gems you probably missed the first time around.

The extended cut of "Pilot" isn't just longer; it's funnier, awkwarder (is that a word? It is now!), and even a little more heartwarming. Buckle up, because we’re about to revisit the cringe-worthy beginnings of our favorite paper company.

New Jokes, Same Old Michael

One of the biggest additions is more Michael Scott being, well, Michael Scott. More inappropriate jokes? You bet! He tries to prank Pam with a fake phone call about her dad and it's just hilariously uncomfortable.

There's a deleted scene where he makes fun of Stanley's weight while Stanley is trying to eat his lunch. It's classic Michael: oblivious and offensive.

And how about Michael making fun of how Jim flirts with Pam? It's nice that in the beginning, Michael rooted for Jim and Pam but of course he made it awkward at the same time.

More Background On Our Favorite Characters

We get a few more clues about who these characters are right from the start. We see a glimpse of how trapped Jim feels by his job. It is subtle, but it's there.

And Pam? We see even more of her quiet frustration with Roy and the lack of direction in her life. The longing in her eyes when she looks at Jim is amplified here.

Dwight, of course, is even more Dwight-y. His unwavering loyalty to Michael and his, uh, unique worldview are on full display.

Moments That Hit Different

There's a surprisingly sweet moment where Michael tries to comfort Pam after he sees that she's upset. It is actually very sweet of him!

These added scenes make us see more of Michael's good intensions. He just has a hard time of expressing them in an appropriate way.

The way Jim interacts with Pam, in these extra scenes, also feels more intentional and endearing. You really feel the beginning of their connection.

Why Bother Watching?

Look, if you're a die-hard Office fan, these Superfan episodes are pure gold. It's like finding extra sprinkles on your already perfect sundae.

These additions add depth to the characters and gives you even more laughs. Who doesn't want more laughs?

Plus, it's a great excuse to rewatch the show from the very beginning. Relive all the best moments and appreciate how far these characters have come. It's time well spent, trust me.

So, grab your Dundie Award (or a stapler, whatever's handy), settle in, and prepare to rediscover the magic of The Office, one Superfan episode at a time!
