Win 'The Office: Season Four' on DVD from The Big Picture

officeseason4.jpgThere are many who believe The Office is the funniest show on American television right now. I think you could certainly argue that it has some of the funniest moments on American television, because in a way, a show like Arrested Development did it right. Since it was not even on the air for three full seasons, that show never had its jump the shark moment, all the ideas were still fresh and corrosive, and you didn't have time to get sick of it.

This fall, The Office begins its fifth season, and you've already heard grumblings about Jim and Pam and Michael and Jan and the Dwight/Andy/Angela love triangle. The show is about to get its own spin-off starring Amy Poehler, and, yes, some of the novelty is gone.

The Office has had to get experimental, whether it's introducing new characters or going to one-hour episodes or even, as we saw in Dinner Party from season four, push the envelope of traditional comedy just a little bit more.

Universal Home Entertainment and The Big Picture are giving away copies of season four on DVD, which is a pretty righteous development, I'm sure you'll agree. I've watched it (technically I cheated and just watched my favorite episodes and the bonus features), and it's a must-have. You get all the episodes - a shorter season due to the writers' strike - and oodles of deleted scenes, some funny commentaries from almost every cast member, and a great behind-the-scenes look at the writers of the show, who are its real strength.

We usually ask you to answer some trivia to win the DVD, but anyone can do trivia. I want you to rank the three best pranks Jim ever played on Dwight. I know the top two without thinking...then it gets tough.

So come up with your best three and send us an e-mail for your chance to win. Hurry, though: You've only got until Friday at 10pm Pacific to get your answers to us. So - three best pranks, e-mail, chance of winning. It isn't hard.

That's what she said.

What the hell? I love Amy Poehler, but Is The Office CSI now?...

From, what I've heard, Amy Poehler will be getting her own series that Office EP Greg Daniels will run, but it won't be associated with Dunder-Mifflin (though a spin-off may still result from some reason ;&)...
