REVIEW:THE OFFICE SEASON EIGHT
09/02/12
OVERVIEW: Big changes are in store for Scranton in the hilarious eighth season of this Primetime Emmy® Award winning series. Andy
(Ed Helms, The Hangover) has taken over as manager and he will stop at nothing to win the affection of the Dunder Mifflin staff.
Outrageous antics ensue as he works to balance the respect of his employees while going toe-to-toe with Robert California (James
Spader, “Boston Legal”), the enigmatic new CEO. Dwight (Rainn Wilson, The Rocker) makes his own grab for power when he leads a
team to Florida to work under Nellie Bertram (Catherine Tate, “Dr. Who”), who may be slightly out of her mind. Jim (John Krasinski, Big
Miracle) and Pam's (Jenna Fischer, A Little Help) relationship is put to the test when Pam goes on maternity leave and her replacement
has eyes for Jim.
“The Office” Season Eight includes 24 episodes to enjoy back-to-back and uninterrupted in a five-disc set, with outstanding bonus
features including extended episodes, more than 100 minutes of deleted scenes, webisodes and more! The Blu-ray™ Combo Pack
