The Office Finale Was a Big, Frustrating, Lovable Mess, Says PEOPLE's Critic
Originally posted 05/17/2013 08:45AM
The series finale of The Office took up an hour and 15 minutes of NBC's prime-time schedule Thursday night. The last quarter-hour had a special sentimental magic, as we got parting moments with each of the characters at the Dunder Mifflin paper company of Scranton, Pa.
The rest you could have fed into a shredder.
After a season that carefully worked out significant narrative strands – the ultimately inevitable ascension to manager of the insufferable Dwight Schrute (Rainn Wilson), the unexpectedly tender travails in the marriage of Jim and Pam (John Krasinski and Jenna Fischer) – this episode was poorly conceived and clumsily structured.
It really wasn't worthy of all the years of affectionate humor that had gone before it.

New mothers are often advised to never wake a sleeping baby, and Angela Kinsey learned the hard way why.
The Office star told PEOPLE's Celebrity Baby Blog she tempted fate one day with her 15-month-old daughter Isabel Ruby – with disastrous results.
"I was like, 'You know what? She's taking a late afternoon nap, she's not going to fall asleep 'til late, I'm going to pick her up and rock her to see if she'll wake up,' " the actress recalls. "Mistake! My mom was right."

The Office Costars Praise New Mom Angela Kinsey

Angela Kinsey may have had jitters about being a "red-carpet ready" new mom, but that didn't stop The Office star from making a splash at Sunday's sixth annual TV Land Awards – where her show's cast was honored with the Future Classic TV Land award.
Meanwhile, Kinsey's costars say she's handling motherhood – the actress and husband Warren Lieberstein welcomed daughter Isabel May 3 – just fine.
"Baby-schmaybe, she doesn't care," the NBC sitcom's Creed Bratton told PEOPLE at the Santa Monica, Calif., event. "She can take care of [it].
"I saw the baby, I held it," added Bratton, who then wise-cracked, "The thing is, it doesn't do any tricks yet, so I got bored waiting."
Also at Sunday's gathering was costar Oscar Nunez, who said, "Warren and Angela are having a great time. We saw her yesterday, she's wonderful. ... The baby is beautiful. She's adorable."
