The episode originally aired on NBC in the on September 22, 2011. It was written and directed by executive producer B. J. Novak. The series, presented as a true documentary, depicts the daily lives of office workers at the Scranton, Pennsylvania branch of the fictional Paper Company. In the episode, new CEO Robert California (James Spader) writes a mysterious list that has a line in the middle and each member of the office on one side or the other. The members of the office frantically try to understand what this means, causing a crisis for the new director Andy Bernard. The List was the first episode of The Office to star Robert California in a lead role. The episode received moderately positive reviews with many comments that it proved that the series could survive without Carell. According to Nielsen Media Research, The List attracted about 7.63 million viewers and received a score of 3.9/10% among the 18-49 year old population, making it, at the time, the first of the lowest-rated season since the first season. Synopsis (John Krasinski) explains to the camera that Robert California (James Spader) was appointed regional director of the Scranton branch, but on his first day traveled to Florida and convinced Jo Bennett to give him his position as CEO of Dunder Mifflin-. Robert then appointed Andy Bernard () as Scranton's regional director in his place. Andy made his goal for the office to receive half a day off on the Friday before columbus day weekend. Robert accidentally leaves his personal notebook at 's (Ellie Kemper) office, and she notices that it contains a list of Scranton employees on two columns with a line in the middle. Concerned about what the list means, employees are pressuring Andy to ask Robert about it. Robert is offended by Andy's investigation, assuming he snooped through his notebook. While brushing the list as doodles, he ostensibly moves Andy's name from the left column to the right. Later in the year Robert invite les employés de la colonne de gauche à déjeuner : Jim, (Rainn Wilson), (Craig Robinson), (Angela Kinsey), (Brian Baumgartner), (Phyllis Smith), Flenderson Lieberstein) and Oscar Martinez (Oscar Nunez). After their departure, the right-handers try to console themselves with a pizza, but remain discouraged by their exclusion. During lunch (which Toby finally decides to leave), the left-siders pester Robert about the list. Slightly intoxicated, Robert informs them that left-handers are winners while the right side is losing. Jim is surprised, but the others become arrogant. Kevin sends a mass text to the right-hand side, mocking them as erdants, and later squirts (Kate Flannery) with a water pistol. Andy doesn't like it and confronts Robert with a request to change the list. Robert refuses, then talks to everyone by admitting to calling some losing board members, but also reprimanding them for fixing so much on the opinion of someone else of them, saying that he will work with them for a long time and that his opinions on some people may very well change, ending with Winners, prove me right; losers, prove me wrong. Andy, dissatisfied, lists the qualities of right-handers, stating that (Leslie David Baker) may be a grumpy, but has the best sales record in the office (something Robert admits he doesn't know); Meredith is persistent and does not know what the word o means; and Pam Halpert (Jenna Fischer) is the most creative and kindest person [he] has ever worked with. Andy concedes to Robert that putting (Zach Woods) in the losers column was astute. He then demanded half a day and the Columbus outings, eliciting a respectful smile from Robert. Although the office receives half a day every year anyway, they gladly wish him goodnight as they leave, and Andy seems very happy with his job as a boss. Pam is pregnant with her and Jim's second child (revealed to be a boy) and is emotional, easily brought to tears throughout the day. Angela is also pregnant, after marrying state Senator Robert Lipton over the summer, and says she's Little Preg to Pam's Big Preg. When Jim picks up his belongings to leave for the day, he accidentally leaves a piece of paper. Pam picks it up and sees Jim's personal list of winners and losers: Pam, Cece and their new baby are left, and the words everything else is written on the right. Pam vows in tears to frame her. The production The List marked James Spader's first appearance as a regular on The Office. The episode was written and directed by executive producer B. J. Novak, who also plays in the series. This is Novak's fourteenth writing credit and the third Series. The List, which began filming on July 25, 2011,[3] served to redefine and redirect The Office, as former lead actor of the series Steve Carell had left the show after the previous twenty-second episode, Goodbye, Michael. [4] The plot of this episode is a continuation and resolution to the plot of the seventh final season Search Committee, in which several potential candidates (most of whom were played by guest actors) appeared, but no final decision on who would become the new director was offered. On June 27, 2011, co-creator and executive producer announced that James Spader would be joining the cast on a permanent basis. Spader later appeared in this episode, having already made a cameo in the of the seventh season above. He will appear in 15 episodes of the eighth season, and throughout the season he replaces Jo Bennett, the former CEO of Sabre (who was played by Kathy Bates, who had left the series because of her involvement in the NBC drama series, Harry's Law). In addition to Spader joining the cast, The List also revealed that Andy (played by Ed Helms) would move up to the position of manager; The executive producer and showrunner of the series revealed this information to Ed Helms at lunch in June. Before their decision, the writers had gone through the main contenders for , Darryl, Dwight and Andy, and concluded that Andy would be the best choice. [8] Finally, this episode begins with the announcement that Pam is pregnant with her second child. Pam's pregnancy was written in the show in order to match jenna Fischer's actual pregnancy. [9] Season Eight DVD contains a number of deleted scenes from this episode. Notable cut scenes include Ryan explaining where the trends come from and Gabe explaining why he's back in a talking head, Andy trying to calm everyone down as they try to figure out what the list means, and more scenes with the winner's lunch and the loser's pizza part. [10] Cultural References Cold opening presents several planking workers, an activity of lying face down in an unusual or incongruous place. This was the first of the third season to include an Internet trend in the cold open in a row. The first was in where Michael, Dwight and Andy try to film a video of them trying parkour. The second was in where the office made a lip dub video of the song Nobody but me. Throughout the episode, Pam is seen crying during an advertisement for The Travelers Companies featuring a dog trying to keep her dog bone safe. [12] Reception Ratings In its original U.S. broadcast on September 22, 2011, The List was viewed by approximately 7.63 million viewers and received a rating of 3.9/10% among adults aged 18 to 49. [13] This means that it has been seen by 3.9% of all 18-49 years old, and 10% of all 18-49 year olds watching television at the time of the show. This is an 11% decrease in the population compared to the first of the seventh season, Nepotism, making it the lowest rated season. Noted.

The List is the most watched show of the week among adults aged 18 to 49. [14] Comments The Curse of the Last Seasons of The Office has been uneven, so until they have done through a few episodes, it is difficult to give a diagnosis of the post-Carell show. But it was about as good a first outing as they could have hoped. Linda Holmes, NPR[15] The List received moderately positive reviews. Myles McNutt of The A.V. Club attributed the episode a B and wrote that the entry was roughly on par with what the show was delivering last season. He slightly criticized the tone of the episode, noting that he avoided subtlety and, on the contrary, gave a thesis statement for the upcoming transition season. [16] HitFix critic Alan Sepinwall complimented the final scene of Andy opposite Robert, calling it sweet and authentic, the way the show's early days feel special. Despite this, he says that the story has fallen a little flat NPR's Linda Holmes praises the choice to add James Spader, making Andy the manager, and praises the writers for andy's differentiation as Michael's manager. Cindy White, author of IGN, praised the episode as an overall affair by writing that and when you have such a strong set, it's a smart way to go. [11] She concluded that in context with the rest of NBC's hilarious programming Thursday night ... The Office can't help but appear a little long in the tooth. But you can still count on it for at least a few laugh-out-loud moments... I'm not ready to call the time of death on this show yet. [11] She finally gave the episode an 8.0/10. [11] TV Guide writers Joyce Eng and Kate Stanhope called Andy's promotion the manager's third best TV moment of the week. [17] James Poniewozik of Time gave the episode a positive review, commenting that at least it has shown that a season 8 Office is capable of delivering the funny as well as the grace notes of character.
