Great to see you in the JAM Therapy Lounge CS! I love those voicemails at the end of The Carpet too and the look on Jim's face as he's listening to them and pondering them. (Okay, now I'm REALLY going to go watch The Sopranos!! )

Hey, Collapsing Star! Good to see you in here.

I think this is what you are looking for:


Pam Voicemail #1: Hey Jim, it's Pam. I keep looking up to say something to you, and then Michael's there, and it's horrible. Anyway, I'm bored. Come BACK.

Pam Voicemail #2: Hey, guess what. I moved my computer so I can't see Michael's head. It's working. I think I can have a career as a very specific type of decorator.

Pam Voicemail #3: Sudoku. Level moderate. Time, 18 minutes. Suck on that, Halpert.

Pam Voicemail #4: I'll transfer you. Dunder Mifflin, this is Pam. Hold please. Dunder Mifflin, this is … okay, sorry, Michael was standing at my desk and I needed to be busy or who knows what would have happened, so thank you.

Pam Voicemail #5: Hey, what's that word we made up when you have a thing stuck in your shoe? Anyway, I have a thing stuck in my shoe.

Pam Voicemail #6: Hey, I have a chance to sneak out of here early, and I'm not messing this up, so, I'll see you tomorrow.

Pam Voicemail #7: Calling from my cell phone. I don't know if you guys figured out who did that to Michael's carpet yet, but I have a theory that involves an interdepartmental conspiracy. Everybody in the office. We need to talk.

Thanks Officetally!

*Edit* PMS, you are a quicker draw than me!

Jim: "Hi"
Pam: "Hey"

I'm going to jump in with another. The very first JAM quote:

Pam: I have an important question for you.
Jim: Yes.
Pam: Um, are you going to Angela’s cat party on Sunday? (Laughs)
Jim: Yeah, stop. That is ridiculous.

"Well, I wish you would"


(obviously)

Here is my favorite Jam quote:

Jim: (gettting down on one knee and pulling a box out of his pocket).Pam, I love you so much. These past couple of years have been the most amazing of my life, and I want to spend the rest of my life with you. Will you marry me?

Pam: (with tears in her eyes). Absolutly I will.

I believe this quotation is from episode 5/23 entitled The Proposal. It's a good one. You guys should really check it out!

I love all the voicemails too. My other fave moment is when she makes him buy the Coke from her.

Oh yah!

You are bringing your game!

I think my heart skipped a beat.

8 more posts up for grabs!

Not sure why, but that's my fave.

So, how do you guys think JAM spent thier first weekend together?

From the Merger immediately after they hug:
Jim: "The place looks great" never taking his eyes off of Pam, not even setting foot in the actual office.

^^^^^ I never caught this. I guess it's because I have only allowed myself to watch TM twice. It just hurts too much for casual viewing. I guess it's safe now to re-watch all these "Scary" episodes knowing the awesomeness to come. It's A Date!

Talking...kissing...talking some more.

And a few cold showers.

fav quote:

Jim: (silence)
Pam: (silence)

I watched TM today...its still pretty brutal.

Very sad at the time, but wonderful in retrospect after FNB's journey - From Girls & Boys:

Jim: You have to take a chance on something sometime, Pam
Pam: I'm perfectly fine with my choices

Yeah, right.

CONGRATULATIONS MBF!!!!!

Okay, double post but am going for the gold... 3000th post!

I am going to see LtW and don't care if it schmaltzy and will be more than glad to chat here with whomever about it. We have a lot of summer to get through.

CONGRATULATIONS MYBESTFRIEND!!!!!

You are the 3000th JAM Therapy thread poster.

As a reward for your post, I give you...

Oh, there's a knock at the door. Let me go see who's there. Oh, well, if it isn't Jim Halpert!


Uh, hi, Mybestfriend. Thanks for the support you have given Pam and me. Uh, I was wondering if you were free for dinner tonight? Pam's got her art class tonight and I want to plan something really special for her. I'd love your advice. I'm willing to sit down with you and chat for hours. Also, I'll let you know how our other dates have gone so far. Anyways, what do you think?

Wow Bees, I gotta hand it to you. Your presents keep getting better and better. First swaying, then the supply closet now this! I would give anything to hear Jim gush about his and Pam's first dates! Your so lucky Mybestfriend! You gotta let us know what he says! Ask him if he has gotten to second base yet?

Oh BW, what a lovely gift!

Well, Jim, I'm almost speechless. But... absolutely, I do.

You definitely need to let us know how your dinner with Jim goes, MBF.

If you haven't already checked this out, please do:

It's by our own ladama and it's a-MAY-zing!

I enjoyed Ladam's vid earlier today and it is indeed a-may-zing.

I will take copious notes during dinner and will report back to the committee for JAM therapy!

GOOD JOB, LADAMA!!!

Ok, we're back from Scranton. Wonderful weekend. So here's my Karen sig. 3 days, right? I need some sleep now, so I'll see everyone tomorrow am. Nighty-night!

Sweet dreams, EH. I'm sure you'll be dreaming of "The Electic City".

Oh yeah, I want to see it too! For JK. But I don't think I have anyone to see it with. Hubby is not interested and it probably wouldn't be a good idea to see it with him anyways.
July 4th is the release date right?

Ok, I think this topic has ended but one of my fave Jam scenes is in Basketball when they talk about who's going to win and I think Jim says something along the lines of "Is that trash talk from Pam?" I can't remember her line before that but she gives that Oh! expression, so cute, the back and forth.

Love that scene, too! Here it is:

Jim: You gonna wish me luck?
Pam: Yeah, you’re gonna need it.
Jim: Whoa, is that trash talk from Pam?
Pam: I’m just saying, Roy is very competitive.
Jim: Oh.
Pam: And he wants to take the wave runners to the lake this Saturday, so…
Jim: Well, I’m going to the outlet mall on Saturday, so if you wanna save big on brand names … (Pam laughs) … and Roy has to work, which he will, because I’m also competitive, you should feel free to come along.
Pam: Um, I think I’m gonna be up at the lake …
Jim: I think I’ll see you at the mall … yeah.

Thanks Beeswax! You have an amazing memory!! This was the episode I fell in love with JAM, although I didn't see this one until halfway through S2.

I know this isn't a quote per se, but I love Jim's 27 seconds of silence. Dreamy, yet so sad.

congrats MBF!!

Just wanted to announce my new JAREN sig here! So, here it is -- told you it wasnt' going to be great or anything. three days huh? Thats enough time to make a killer JAM date one.

I can't believe how busy you guys have been today!!! 3000 posts!!! WOOO HOOO!!! I think that was 1000 posts in under a week, but I am too lazy to try and go back and figure that one out!!!

So the hard drive (I guess...that's what they're telling me) went out in my DVR and so they are going to come out and replace my DVR tomorrow...AND I WILL LOSE ALL OF MY OFFICE RECORDINGS!!!!! Now, granted, the only two I care about re-watching is Beach Day and The Job...BUT I AM SO UPSET!!!! I wanted to watch parts of it over and over for the next few weeks. Oh well, I guess I'm glad there's you tube and the NBC home page.

I am still so excited about the finale...I loved everything about it!!!! And loved Jim FINALLY getting to ask Pam out on a date, and Pam FINALLY getting to say yes!!! It's going to be a great season 4!!

Congrats, MBF!! And I love your signature...that was the background on my computer for a long time!!

OK, here's my fav (right now, cause I'm kinda fickle about 'em) JAM quote. It's from Health Care. I just love their banter!

Jim: Last night on Trading Spouses, there's... have you seen it?
Pam: No. I have a life.
Jim: Interesting, what's that like?
Pam: You should try it sometime.
Jim: Wow. But then who would watch my TV?

Oh, and here's my new sig. Yeah! I changed it on Thursday night after losing the bet, so now I'm onto JAM happiness. Do you think it's too big?

PMS, that's one of my all-time favorite Jam moments. It's so simple, but their easy banter just tells you everything you need to know about them.

And I LOVE the new sig! I think it's just perfect. (Is it even possible for JK to be too big? I certainly don't think so.)

AHHH, that's so awesome!!! I love it! I am so proud of Jim, I could just hug him for all the pain he's gone through this year!!! And I could just hug him in anticipation for all the good times we're going to see next season! Oh, what the heck, I'd hug him for absolutely ANY reason at all.

Yes, pMS, that is a great scene. What I love about it too is that when Michael comes and interrupts them, Jim gets really irritated and even groans I think. You can tell that he just wanted to enjoy/bask in Pam's laughter, and Michael killed it.

OK, so I'm not Bees, but I'm handing out homework anyway! Just consider me a sub or maybe a TA. Let's all watch both The Alliance and Office Olympics. Then we can celebrate how Jam's history made them who they are today! Of course, that statement could be said about anyone. Hmmm. I don't care, off to watch TO!

I didn't like that JAM Therapy was down toward the bottom of the page, so I'm bumping it up!! I will take you up on your assignment, poorman's, and I will watch The Alliance and Office Olympics...ahhh good times!! And good times are a comin!

Oh, I modified a song a bit that we were all listening to around the finale time...so instead of singing to Jim, hey, hey, you, you I don't like your girl friend...I have been singing,

"hey, hey, you, you, i really love your new girl friend!!!"

It makes me happy!

Don't thank me. Thank Officetally.com. That's where I go for all of my quotes. The only thing I'm good at is remembering the ep that it came from.

Just think of the banter that is yet to come!



Excellent sig, HCT!

That Karen deserves everything she gets for calling our Pam a female dog.

I can hardly wait to see your JAM date sig!



Oh, that would make me cry!

Well, The Convention is on next week, so start building up your collection again. That can be a summer project for you. Also, just think, S4 will be out in September (supposedly on the 11th) and you will have all the delicious S3 eps without commercials and with extras.



First of all, TWSS.

Second of all, your sig is perfect. I could have Jim leaning in my doorway all day long and never get tired of it.



You can hand out homework anytime!

I did hand out that homework earlier on and suggested watching "The Job" along with those eps. It is an excellent way to celebrate Jam's history. Good thinking!

Watching the S2 eps are so much sweeter now that I know they are together. I haven't gotten the guts to watch The Merger and PW again, but maybe in a while. It should be part of my therapy to face my demons and recover from a JAM angst season.

Good Morning from the friendly neighborhood library!!!

This morning I ran while "watching" Office Olympics" and I think I had a single tear! I just kept on thinking about the do not forget US.... Jim had so much fun that day with everyone mot just Pam. He started all the games and he got to know his workers more, and in the end he furthered his many office friendships. Thus when asked what he missed the most about Scronton? He missed THAT day! He missed having fun with every one esp. Pam! And then he was asked where do you see yourself in 10 years and well what he saw was beach day and Pam saying she missed his friendship, and Jim finally seeing that he never really came back. It was as if he saw that he was going to lose a lot more if he stayed at corporate. He was not only going to lose a chance with Pam, but also his awesome friendships that he took for granted until now, even the one with Dwight. ( He missed it the very first episode, as did we all) That memo ment so much more to him, it ment that he used to have fun with everyone, and that everyone would talk to him. It ment that Pam beliveled in him, heck many of the workers believed in him. It ment getting back to what he lost of himself. It meant being happy.....It meant having friends!!!!

( WOW, wonder if Pam knew she opened the flood gates so much??)

I also wanted to say that OO is so conected to The Job that it is scary. Michael's condo is mentioned in both. Pam talks about how Jim could do so much better if only he had more to do. Ryan has a good little future corporate attitude. Dwight talks about Michael having a GF move in ( LOL). The yogurt lids ( which FYI, I am eating a mixed berry yogurt and the tops are not gold.. so no such luck with the top being mixedberry) Jim talks to every person in that office, he establishes a relationship with everyone. At the end of the episode Jim steps up and makes his co-workers feel loved! THAT is the Jim Halpert I feel in love with!! And it took a walk down memory lane to bring him back!!

^^^Excellent post, PH! I am going to do my "homework" today on the treadmill as well!


I mentioned it on the All Things Date thread, but I will here too. LOVE your sig. It's hysterical!!


I'll take a life size one for my living room please.


I'm on it! Plus, I'll watch The Job for dessert!

I took my homeworlk assignment very seriously and watched all three this morning -TA, OO and TJ! It was quite daunting, I assure you. Actually, it was the greatest! The Alliance is the episode that absolutely hooked me, so it has always been my favorite. One thing I noticed that I havent before -- when Pam is in the warehouse, Jim is sitting on the couch talking with Michael about the donations, and he is constantly looking to his right. I never thought anything about this, just that maybe he was watching the other people interact. But in the finale fun trivia contest, one of the questions involved that door between Meredith's and Kevin's desks -- where it leads -- to the warehouse!!! I LOVE that he was watching intently for Pam's return to find out just how well she worked her magic!

Wow! I never knew that was the door to the warehouse! Cool!

I love that I learn something new every day about this show.

The Alliance is in my top 5 for sure. I LOVE Jim/Dwight eps. They are just like brothers who love to get at each other and love each other at the same time.

I wonder if someone really ragged on Dwight if Jim would step up and defend him like a brother. He wasn't in the office when Andy ousted Dwight and it would have been interesting to see if Jim would have fought for Dwight. I know this isn't JAM, but Jim and Dwight are so connected to Pam that I think it counts.

When I do watch S3 again, I'm going to pay attention to the connection between Dwight and Pam. Dwight has really been there for Pam when Jim wasn't. There is a respect between the two of them. Just like the brotherly ties between Jim and Dwight, I see a brother-sister relationship between Dwight and Pam. Pam loves to "play" with Dwight, but will defend him if someone goes against him.

The relationships in this show are so complex and so fun to watch! I'm also looking forward to the brother-sister relationship between Jim and Pam disappearing and turning into something wonderful next season.

I watched OO on Saturday (have to do the Alliance now that it is part of our homework). A couple of things struck me as I paid a lot of attention to the now famous medals. One was the cameraman catching Ryan throwing his away juxtaposed with Jim handling his with much admiration and affection. Wow, Pam could not have sent anything that could have meant more to Jim with the note wishing him luck. And wow, Ryan, never my favorite character but wow, definitely even lower in my estimation now.

Oh, and one of my favorite moments had nothing to do with JAM -- I just love when Jim gets so excited by Phyllis' participation - "Phyllis coming alive... I like it"

I just finished my "homework" and I have to say now that we have The Job, watching TA and OO made me misty eyed. I made a bunch of observations about TA:

-When Dwight questions Jim about him telling Pam about their alliance and Jim tells him he's "using" her to find out information, he tells Dwight that there will be lots of "giggling and chatting". Way to take one for the team, Halpert!

-I love during Jim's TH when he gushes "All her idea...she's so great." I melt every time!

-I love when Jim tells Pam "work your magic." She has for sure on him!

-HCT, I watched that scene with Michael and Jim and the warehouse door very intently this time and I definitely see what you mean! One more reason to just love Jim Halpert!

-Jim's shirt is blue, Pam is in pink.

-OMG, at the end when Jim runs behind Pam's desk to tell her that he convinced Dwight to go to corporate and he has his hands all over her! He holds her hand twice and she is also so into it. This cements the theory that he never felt anything more than friendship for Karen. That scene was so hot, right up through when Roy busts it up and Jim feels all self concscious. Can you just imagine what this "first date" will be like???

The only comment I have for OO besides all the obvious stuff is just it was so touching to see the camaraderie Jim had with all of his office mates and the contrast between that and how he was "not there" in S3. I have no fear though, because I know he's back for S4!

Also, mbf, great catch with noticing Ryan's value of the "medal" in contrast with Jim's value of the "medal".

TPTB did such a great job tying these two special episodes into TJ.

Hey Beeswax, keep the assignments coming, I love them!

*EDIT* Just watched the last scene of TJ again and Jim is definitely holding back tears after he sees Pams note. Can't wait for SB's take on that whole scene!

Yes I paid attention to this too. I love how beautifully they tied in this memento to his journey back to Pam.

One thing I also noticed in OO is when Jim is holding the opening ceremonies, he keeps eye contact with Pam almost the entire time. It is as if he is performing just for her. (I dont want to hear a TWSS )


Yes! I was loving that today!



My favorite pda moment between them (other than the two kisses ) is in The Fight when they are play hitting and she shoulder bumps into him. The look on his face and the way he "absorbs" her punch -- very HOT. Just pause it right there. Oooh la la. Halpert wants her.

Not even just a teeny, tiny one? (twss) Sorry! I just couldn't help it!

Yes! I love that too. They are so cute I can't stand it!

Hi. I just watched the office olympics because I wanted to know what the object Pam left on the note meant (I hadn't seen most of that season).

I just wanted to add, so far I think one of my favorite parts, was when Pam asked Angela if she played any games in the office, and Angela tells her she plays one called Pam-Pong where she keeps track of how many times in the day that Jim is at her desk, then through the rest of the episode when Jim is at her desk she's glancing at Angela and sees her writing something down.
