The saddest thing about this episode is also the weakest aspect. This was supposed to be a lead in for the (at one time sure thing) offshoot series of the same name as the episode. Even if the episode feels a bit like a pilot, it’s sad that Dwight is not given a chance to make his own version of Frasier. Each of the characters feel like they are being prepped for the long run, and it distracts from the flow. Still, Dwight with his nephew is kind of sweet.
There are better aspects to the show, back at home. If you had to bring back Packer, this is the way to do it. So many memorable little vignettes are produced, it provides laughs for almost everyone else in the show at record time. In wondering what in the heck happened to Dwight and Angela, one can’t help but notice this was the 5th show produced for the season.
