Six Milestone Moments of the Jim and Pam Office Boremance

Jim Really Proposes (Season 5)

A production decision was made to shoot the proposal with a long lense from across the highway to hopefully dilute the overwhelming tweeness of the event, but in actuality, the effectiveness of the moment was already washed out by the deluge of rain. We get it. They have overcome things and are in love and a gas station is such an unlikely place for a proposal, and a rain storm such an unlikely moment, just like their love was so unlikely in the first place and they aren't like a conventional couple. If they wanted to make it actually artful, you would have cut the sound because the image was heavyhanded enough.

Jim and Pam Finally Get Married (Season 6)

Who didn't see this coming six seasons ago? And while the American version of The Office has at least equaled the British version in the quantity of laughs, it has never come close to creating the type of heart-wrenching romantic moments that befell Tim and Dawn in the original. At least it's all over tonight as the Dunder Mifflin sweethearts finally tie the knot.

For those of you who will be spending tonight watching anything but NBC, rest assured that there is at least one Facebook Group that feels your pain. I'll leave by quoting the words of one anti-Jammer from Australia: "I had to search for this group for 20 minutes but I knew deep down there were others like me that hated Pam [and Jim together] as much as I did. Thank you."

    "quoting the words of one anti-Jammer from Australia..."
    Oh please. Obviously, this guy's racist.

    Oh, you're just bitter. Why do these guys have to be "exciting?" Let them have their simple love. I liked the gas station proposal! It doesn't always have to be--
    Oh wait, I remember now. They're not real.

    i loves me some good well-deserved snark but don't be bad mouthin' jim and pam...they're the only thing that keeps that show grounded and prevents it from crashing and burning when the writers and the actors of the wackier characters go off the rails...(except for Meredith...she hits it out of the park every single time).
    also, they are adorable.
