Welcome Fellow Flans! We're glad you're here for Season 5 of The Office!

Here are a few pointers and guidelines for old and new people alike.

Discussing Episodes

On the Message Board
Every Thursday, we will create a new episode thread in the Episode Discussions forum. The thread will remain closed until about 5 minutes before the show begins on the East Coast (that's 8:55 p.m. Eastern). Everyone is welcome to post in the official thread, but please DO NOT discuss the episode in OTHER threads until everyone on the West Coast has had a chance to view it.

In Chat
You may also want to check out the unofficial and unmoderated Office Message Board Chat Room - here. Lots of folks like to hang out there during and after the episode to talk amongst themselves. Everyone is welcome.

Viewing Parties *NEW*NEW*NEW* (Beta)
Starting this fall, you can organize Viewing Parties of up to 10 people that you choose to invite. Unfortunately, due to copyright and technical restrictions, NBC Rewind currently only works inside the U.S., so all party goers MUST access the site from a location inside the U.S. For more information, click here.

Posting Links

Just a note on what is and is not allowed. Any links to clips, promos, and entire shows must point to nbc.com, hulu.com, or iTunes. Links to any other sites will be promptly removed by a moderator. In addition, any instructions posted on the myNBC message boards regarding ways to circumvent the geo-lock for international viewers will be removed for legal reasons.


Spoiler Policy

We have developed the following guidelines regarding spoilers and over time have found that these rules make for a happy forum.

Please do not post any information regarding upcoming episodes outside of the The Water Cooler sub forum.

On Episode Night


If you post a thread or poll the night an episode airs with spoiler(ish) information in the title (e.g. "OMG! I Can't Believe Andy and Angela are Engaged!") it will be hidden by a Moderator until the episode has aired on the West Coast.

Please do not keep re-posting said topic or ask where it has gone - we will make it available to one and all once EVERYONE has had a fair chance to see the episode at its regularly scheduled time.

Thank you for your cooperation!

Basic Guidelines

To ensure that the NBC Boards remain an environment of welcoming, please read and abide by the Rules of Netiquette.
