I accidentally saw some episodes of the office. Michael Scott and Dwight are more reactionary than I originally remembered. Just small details, but also the character’s personalities.

I just get a lot of vibes like, the writers thought “History has ended” but seeing this stuff later in life I know for a fact history comes back for season 2.

I’ve noticed things and gotten the vibe from other old TV shows, too.

It was problematic how Mac’s relationship with her was treated as one of the first hints he’s actually gay, and the showrunners have said they regret that. Still, most of the jokes aren’t at her expense.
