I'll just dip into this one - I'm more familiar with the UK version of The Office, and this one seems to be quite ingrained into quirks of the characters I don't know, so a lot of those touches got lost on me - not that I consider that a bad thing, just a lack of familiarity.

I'll agree with comments made here that this is a pretty OTT episode for the show, with the crazy meter racked up a few more notches than usual, but again that's not a fault - you're trying something different to make this spec stand out from the other Office ones on here, so that seems to work.

Also, so much of Office comedy is in the physical performance of the characters that most specs just focus on stories and jokes. You've tried to capture that physical aspect here, and I think that's what's made some people less sure about it - personally, I think it's a brave thing to attempt, so kudos for the effort!

I'm not going to grade this one, as it feels as though I'd need to know a lot more about the original show to be able to comment fairly on it - less so than the last Office spec I looked at, which was more straightforward.

That said, the very fact that this one is so different is its Unique Selling Point, so there you go...
