Fact: Dwight Schrute Is Underrated In These 7 Episodes Of 'The Office'
NBC Universal

Everyone loves "The Office," it is comedy gold. But if I had to choose a favorite character, I would have to pick Dwight Schrute. He is so hilariously unapologetic for being himself that I can't help but love his character.

Here are seven episodes where Dwight is overlooked, but really is the star of the show:

1. "The Alliance."

Season 1, episode 4. Dwight approaches Jim about forming an alliance in preparation for the downsizing of the company. His intentions are charming but his execution... well, you'll have to watch the episode.

2. "Email Surveillance."

Season 2, episode 9. Jim hosts a party at his house, intentionally not inviting Michael Scott, their boss. Dwight question Jim's intentions for not inviting Scott because Dwight is loyal and a good friend to Michael. Jim tells Dwight that it is a surprise party for Michael (it's not) and Dwight goes the rest of the episode thinking this and it's the greatest thing ever.

3. "Dwight's Speech."

Season 2, episode 17. Dwight is terrified to present his speech after winning the "Salesman of the Year." You wouldn't think he doesn't like public speaking, given the eccentricity of his character, but I love that he is (I am right along there with him).

4. "A Benihana Christmas."

Season 3, episode 10. Michael has just been broken up with and Dwight does his best to comfort him. But, Michael would rather have the company of other people. Dwight deserves better!

5. "Women's Appreciation."

Season 3, episode 23. This might be my second favorite Dwight episode. Phyllis gets flashed in the companies parking lot and immediately Dwight takes over and does everything he can to find the culprit.

6. "Launch Party."

Season 4, episode 3. The company's website just started running and Dwight tries to beat its sales. While dealing with roadblocks from Pam and Jim, his heart is so set on winning you can't help but root for him.

7. "Counseling."

Season 7, episode 2. Dwight comes into the office mad about a shop at the mall under looking him because of his appearance. The office plans to "Pretty In Pink" the shop.

AI music threatens creativity

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
