TGE: Tonight was the first episode of The Office without Michael Scott/Steve Carell; and in fact, what was most interesting to me about "The Inner Circle" was the complete absence of Michael -- he wasn't just gone, it was as if he had never even been there...

I cringed during the juggling scene. It wasn't even in the same league as last week's episode but it was still decent.
I actually liked the episode and thought it was good. The juggling scene was even funny. I had plenty of moments where I was laughing out loud. Dwight had a couple real good moments too which I like.
And of course they completely ignored Michael Scott. I mean they did acknowledge in the beginning that there was a switch over with Will's character being all like "now I'm officially in charge and it's time to get down to business".
But the ignoring of the Michael Scott is probably best for them. Dwelling on it will just drag out the whole "aww Steve's gone" mentality. If they want this show to survive, they have to get past that and get past it quick. That's what they're doing. Furthermore, even slight mentions of him this early in the transition will only exacerbate that whole "let's criticize this as a Post-Michael era and hold it up to that value and keep that whole 'would this have been better with Michael Scott in it' mentality going".
They absolutely need to move away from that character. If they don't, they fail. Everybody knows he was the main attraction of the show and arguably the glue that held it together. He was the one that made it. The only way to get past that is to just cut the cord, burn those bridges and keep marching on like nothing happened.
Furthermore, that's the way Steve wanted it done as well. That's the very reason he didn't have some big extravagant farewell show. Yes it was his farewell show, but it was done in a manner that it wasn't entirely about him and it wasn't this huge spectacle (not in "The Office" world).
I might start watching after Farrell leaves.
I'm one of these strange people that doesn't like Will Farrell. My daughter thinks I'm crazy but I'm not....there's just something about him I've never liked and I've always listened to that first impression of mine that I have about people....it has been right so far in my personal life. It may sound dumb but some people are superstitious and me.....I'm just funny that way.
When he's gone I'll watch again.
I really didn't like this episode,
maybe because the previous episode was so good, but I didn't laugh once on inner circle.
