Officially hilarious again

Season 5 of “The Office” feels like the good old times: Jim punks Dwight; Michael spearheads monumentally stupid endeavors; Ryan is a temp. After the drama between Michael and Jann (among other less-than-comedic situations) in the previous season, “The Office” is officially funny again. The Dwight-Angela-Andy triangle concludes satisfyingly. Michael falls in love with someone who gets him. Pam and Jim get engaged. There are other changes, like a new receptionist, a temporary new boss, a fledgling rival company, and of course, Café Disco. Dunder Mifflin gets its groove back, and it’s about time.
