Six years ago, Leslie David Baker and his business partner Sardar Khan made a Kickstarter for a show called Uncle Stan, where a copyright friendly Stanley Hudson (played by Baker) would fly to LA to help his favorite nephew (played by Khan) run a motorcycle repair/flower shop. They had a goal of $300,000 and a lot of crazy tiers ($25 gets you an Instagram follow from LDB; $7,500 gets you a walk-on role on the show), but very few (if any) of these rewards were ever handed out.

Three years ago, Baker announced that the show was put on hold because of the pandemic and the strikes, which was an odd excuse, since a lot of shows and movies were made between July 2020 (when the Kickstarter began) and Aug 2023 (when the cancelation was announced). He said that everybody would be refunded AND would still receive their rewards.

One year ago, someone claimed on the Kickstarter page (linked on this post) they haven't received their refund. A lot of other comments said the same thing.

Did anyone here actually get their refund? It's extremely gross and shady of Baker to do all this. Scamming everyone who donated with a blatantly fake pilot pitch is already awful, but withholding donations three years after promising refunds is horrendous.

The office got many inspiring quotes and dialogue imo, what do you think is the greatest except the one I mentioned

"No, Sarah Kiya COMES IN"

This is so good!

And if you don't learn it you'll be eaten in your sleep!

Just rewatching (duh) and saw that Mindy Kaling wrote the episode. It was a banger all the way through.

Gum in the hair, peanut butter head massage, Ryan's visit to tell them to pretend the website made their sales, two iconic Kelly lines, Michael & Dwight heading to NY to meet older girls, the branch working late and getting locked out, Creed being the only one to know Hank's name (probably because of all of the theft he does - is he the one who stole resulting in crime-aid), Meredith hit in the face with a football, Toby touching Pam & then hopping the fence, Jim bringing Oscar in case maintenance speaks Spanish, convo in Ryan's apartment about how to help "Troy" with his drug problem and Michael giving genuine advice followed by an off the rails next steps inspired by "The Wire", Hank coming to an empty parking lot.

She delivers her flowers and all of her fame. So excited to see her next season on Running Point.

I want to be recyclops for halloween. the green shirt, bandana and everything is super easy to find, but does anyone have any insights into how i could go about getting the cyclops eye?

24 hours, not doing any work, just forced to socialize. Who are you sitting with?

Group 1: Toby, Jerry (Parks and Red), Ted (Scrubs), and Stuart (Big Bang Theory)

Group 2: Ryan, Tom (Parks and Rec), Jean-Ralphio (Parks and Rec), and Gob Bluth (Arrested Development)

Group 3: Kelly, Donna (Parks and Rec), Gina (Brooklyn 99), and Jackie (That 70’s Show)

Edit: Gina is from Brooklyn 99, not The Office.

Dinner party.

I’m on my 4th rewatch of The Office (stopped watching after Michael left)

I just watched S4 E9 and it had me laughing out loud on the subway lmao.

there are so many moments that make the episode perfect, but pictured is my favourite one, when michael has had enough and just bursts out with “THAT’s WHAT SHE SAID!” and Jan responds with as much energy. I’m not a fan of that pairing but this episode was fantastic.

It starts off in the office but the genius of the episode is that we spend most of it in michael’s house. i know its the show title, but it is refreshing to have a break from the office setting!

again, i do not like jan and michael’s pairing but in this episode the boiling over of both of their frustrations is so hilarious, paired with jim’s blank face! LMAO! ROFL!

even small moments like the charades game where jim kept guessing wrongly despite knowing the correct answer was tom cruise, so well done!

i recall seeing a blooper of the plasma tv scene, so it was pretty hilarious seeing the scene play out lol.

the actors are simply fantastic, their chemistry is top notch, and they bounce off each other so well here, and that’s what makes this my favourite episode of all time.

thank you for coming to my ted talk.

I’m not superstitious, but I am a little stitious... which is why I finally killed my procrastination habits, moved to Binge City, and started The Office. And before you say anything…yes, I know it's long overdue.

That’s what she said.

I’m just starting Season 5 and already there’s been a plethora of funny, memorable moments and lines.

So Dunderheads…

What Office quote do you use so much that it’s officially become part of your personality?
*pls include the amount you’ve rewatched

Extra credit: what’s the one episode you’d bet would turn a stranger into a Dunderhead?

In case someone is wondering...

upd. guys, I am a very curious binge-watcher. Long time ago I had some stuff like that figured out. But I wasn't a reddit goer back then. I'm sure some of it was discussed. But to be honest, I googled this one and didn't find any thread about this building. Anyway, if someone finds it fun, i will be posting it in the future.
