"the motel is dirty and sexy like me"
michael scott.

michael finding new excuses to be an asshole and going back to his season one roots i see, old but not forgotten tendencies brought back by his relationship with donna, kinda mirroring stanley at the beginning of the season. the latter was at least reserved in his acting, while the other brags it. could this semi-involution make michael kind-heartness come back stronger later in the series?
he decided at the end of the episode to pull an opposite dorian gray, showcasing a proper moral compass he already proved to have in the last season episode where he was against destroying that small family business or when he hugged pam, buying her painting after being the only workmate at her art exhibition.
Always loved when the series put light on his more mature nature.
andy cringiness, on the other hand, can be likable and i find him similar to nathan fielder. dude went through a lot and still choose to be cool and positive towards life. his relationship with erin need to cherish because it's an un-polished diamond so far.
don't understand why they made dwight and angela come back again, the least interesting dynamic of the season and too over-the-top, almost flanderized sometimes.
i don't understand the purpose of ryan as well in this season, his hipster outfits are god awful.
Seem like these character have little to offer to the series and writers don't know what to get out of the back to make them more complex, leaving a flat arc and almost looking that they put little to no effort in their comedy moments as well.
