YMMV / The Office USS 3 E 9 The Convict

Go To

  • Crosses the Line Twice: The Prison Mike sequence is so incredibly politically incorrect that it's just hilarious to watch.
  • Ensemble Dark Horse: "Prison Mike" was a one-shot character created by Michael In-Universe for just this episode, but it's hard to not see quotes by him pop up in any fan discussion due to his utterly hilarious lines.
  • Hilarious in Hindsight:
    • In asking about the women in the office, Andy expresses interest in Angela because "blondes are more fun", before Jim warns him "that would be fun for no one." With their failed relationship over the next couple of seasons, Andy would learn firsthand that Jim was right.
    • Multiple times during the Prison Mike sequence Steve Carell slips into some kind of unidentifiable accent that sounds very similar to the voice he would later use for Gru.
  • Memetic Mutation: The entire Prison Mike sequence.
