While I Was Gone: The Office ("The Seminar", "The Search", "PDA", "Threat Level Midnight")

Not a bad string of episodes at all, considering the state of the show the past couple seasons. "The Seminar" was pretty typical fare, but still enjoyable. "The Search" was the weakest of the bunch, saved only by the awesome subtle camera pan to see Creed's picture on the wall at the restaurant and Michael and Holly's scene at the end. "PDA" was perhaps the strongest episode this show has done in years. It was continually funny, the characters seemed themselves, I wasn't particularly annoyed by any one, and it was just overall very enjoyable. "Threat Level Midnight" was an episode that seemed to be done just to signal the fact the Michael will be leaving soon. I have a feeling it's very polarizing among fans, but I thought it was goofy fun. I enjoyed how nonchalantly old characters were brought back as well.
