NBC felt the need to warn viewers that tonight's episode of The Office may not be suitable for all audiences. For the most part it dealt with sexual harrasment on the job and was nothing short of brilliant.

I nearly died when Dwight asked the HR guy where the clitorus was.

There are sometimes I hate my outright hatred of network tv. This is one of those few times...

"... he said WHAT?"

That may have been the single best episode of the American Office so far, beating out the Basketball episode from last season. That was just completely hysterical from start to finish.

Definitly one of the best episodes so far. I was watching it at the gym and this older lady cracked up at the crabs joke. She must have been near 60 which me laugh even more.

Hands down at least as good as any episode of the British series. I mean, OK, the clitoris joke was cheap, but goddamn if they didn't set it up perfectly. That was some comic genius, taking something that could have been a really lame joke, and mining some real gold out of it.

I loved the crab joke as well. I don't know why, but I couldn't stop laughing.

While I would say it's on par with a lot of the season one episodes of the British version (I've, unfortunately, yet to see season two), it's not better than Training. Training is pure comedic genius.

Agreed. There's few things funnier then Training.

Rowan: Gareth, quick trust exercise, ultimate fantasy?
Gareth: Hmm?
David Brent: We're just doing the ultimate fantasy, we're all doing it.
Gareth: Two lesbians probably, sisters. I'm just watching.
Rowan: OK. Erm. Tim? Do you have one?
Tim: I'd never thought I'd say this, but can I hear more from Gareth please?

The guy who plays Dwight is brilliant. I loved the part where he was trying to use his "Sith powers" to keep from getting fired.

I love the part during "benefits" episode:

I am paraphrasing, I forgot the exact wording but it went something like this.

Dwight: .some-long-speech-about-maturity..so we have to be adults, I am going to read this list and you raise your hands if you really have this health problem (looking at a list of afflictions that the employees wanted listed as being covered)

Dwight: "Inverted Penis" (insert unabashed laughing)

Woman: Do you mean a vagina? (more laughing)

And it continued... but I don't remember it... other than it was HILARIOUS
