RETURNING SHOWS

The Office

It took a slight tumble in the quality department after returning from the writers’ strike, but (a) so did almost every other show, and (b) The Office went out with a bang--in the form of Dwight (Rainn Wilson) and Angela (Angela Kinsey)! Speaking of that very grand finale, the supremely perfectly cast Amy Ryan will be back this season (thank God!), as will Michael’s (Steve Carell) pregnant ex, Jan (Melora Hardin)… Um, love triangle, anyone? Elsewhere, the saga of Jim (John Krasinski) and Pam (Jenna Fischer) continues, which is such a good thing, because it would’ve been a drag if season five opened with them planning the wedding. Here’s my prediction for Jam (Jim+Pam): They will get engaged early in the season, only to call it off in the season finale. (premieres Sept. 25 on NBC)
