good... not great
Here's some of our favourite Jim and Karen moments, a true underrated couple. Although to some this couple was just a roadblock in Jim and Pam's love story, they had some iconic moments. Whether it's Karen pranking Jim into thinking she'd dated David Wallace to hunting down some Herr's chips, it's here. Did we miss your favourite Jim and Karen moment? Let us know in the comments!
From "The Office": an American television mockumentary sitcom broadcast on NBC. Created as an adaptation by Greg Daniels of the British series of the same name, it is a mockumentary that follows the day-to-day lives of the employees of the Scranton, Pennsylvania branch of Dunder Mifflin, a fictional paper supply company. The series stars Steve Carell as Michael Scott, John Krasinski as Jim Halpert, Jenna Fischer as Pam Beesly and Rainn Wilson as Dwight Schrute.

When you write a character who has an amazing meant-to-be relationship with a woman, and you’re able to write him having another awesome and comparable relationship with another woman, yet still make the other relationship preferred, but at the same time having that second relationship enjoyable as a stand alone: you are some awesome writers.

Karen was much more of an 'alpha' woman, she was self assured and secure in herself, she also went after what she wanted. Pam is the classic type of person who will not go after anything at all but would rather sit and wait, pretty much the only actual action she took was not marrying roy, but afterwards she just stayed there wallowing. Anything after that was always Jim, either pushing her a lot or just deciding for her. Maybe it's because I identify way more with a person like Karen but I've always wished their relationship had more depth because someone like her might have been more suited to push him to become better a lot quicker than how it happened.

Pam has a lot of growth after season 6. She made up a new job position and a made up her salary when DM got bought over. When she got Erin a new computer and Andy wanted a new one, she suggested to Andy that she can only buy one for him when "his computer really breaks". so they broke his computer together. Even before season 6, she went to NY to study graphic design funded by DM but chose to not continue instead.

@andrew3939
@andrew3939 Год назад
Pam held Jim back for multiple seasons, didn’t entertain her own ambitions and attacked Jim when he asked her if she really wanted to be a receptionist forever. Jim’s ambitions were crushed by her influence too (Athleap is a huge deal, as was working in New York), and refused to make any adjustments in HER life for the fact Jim is a much more ambitious person than she is until the very last season. Remember how Roy’s life turned around after he and Pam broke up? Pam was holding him back too, and we know Roy wasn’t nearly as driven as Jim. Not to mention of course that Karen was nothing but faithful, compared to Pam who spent the first 2 seasons constantly almost cheating on Roy. I don’t understand all the hate Karen gets. She pushed Jim to be his best - the promotion, the moving to New York, etc. She was extremely tolerant of Pam as well despite knowing about Jim and Pam’s history. She was a much better partner for him.

@@jerilane4420 I disagree, Pam definitely cared about money, even if she wasn't driven by it entirely. She snuck herself the role of office administrator (motivated either by money or status), and complained about her pay to Michael. She definitely wanted more for herself - she already had a simple life, but wanted to have a terraced house, exhibit her art, etc. She just didn't have the willpower to carry it through imo, and then tried to hide it behind actually 'wanting' a simple life, but avoiding questions or getting upset whenever the absences of her successes in these endeavours were brought up. Of course she just wanted to be loved and be happy - but doesn't every human want this? So this doesn't make Pam unique in any way, imo. Add this to the fact she didn't actually want a simple life, but claimed to, I think the point about Pam still stands.

Watched the early seasons of the show again recently and yea - Karen a much more worthy mate for Jim. Pam toyed with him, broke his heart with her gutlessness and cowardice, held him back, and forced him into decisions keeping him tethered to her mediocrity. Smart, ambitious and talented, Karen represented someone who was his equal and able to challenge him, and was fully committed to him from the get go. And was a hell of a lot more fun and charming. Lesson for the kids out there: don't confuse "soul-mate" for a choice of banal comfort. Jim choosing Pam over Karen was an anti-growth choice, and was a double-down on the lazy choice of staying at the Scranton branch instead of challenging himself and exploring his own potential. Would be interested to know if the writers found that they sort of caught lightning in a bottle with the Jim/Karen romance (thanks to the awesome Rashida Jones), but felt committed to following through with the Jim/Pam thing. If so, they made the lazy, fan-friendly choice.

No sorry John and Jenna are the real lightning in the bottle as they have a wow factor from the first time you see them on screen. Calling Pam gutless and a coward is harsh considering many woman settle and take a life they know and are comfortable with even though it doesnt have the sparks. She was engaged and couldnt just walk away. You make it sound like one is choosing a new cable company. And here is another news flash sometimes a career doesnt trump a family and challenging oneself doesnt always make you happy just more well off financially. Jim had the chance to work in New York but gave it up to be with his true love. Jim could never love anyone else like he did Pam and that was their "thing" as you refer to it. Scenes with him and Karen felt like she was his sister as they had zero passion or at least he acted that way around her. Not her fault as she did her best. What made Jim and Pam real is they didnt live a typical new york glitzy life. They werent overly ambitious or talented and without flaws. But we can relate to that as that is the way MOST people live. And they dont live in New York or LA but in Scranton. And their love story is way better because of it as the writers made their relationship so subtle and devoid of flash but few couples on TV can rival their connection!

Karen and Jim were more equals. Pam was more feminine and more emotionally needy more romantic. Karen was more of the fun freedom loving kinda of super cute tomboy. Pam was more cautious and insecure. Not that Karen didn't have her insecurities, but Pam needed Jim. Karen deserved honesty, integrity and was more straightforward. Pam played more coy flirty games. I think Jim liked being needed and liked being the alpha. I liked them both, and they were both good, but in different ways. It came down to Jim's need to be in charge.

Reminds me of how for the last couple years, feminist media critique has been obsessed with branding every remotely tomboyish character as an internalised misogynist who's "not like the other girls" while upholding more "traditionally" feminine characters (It is a valid point in some cases, but feminism has long had a problem with over-correcting its mistakes)

Karen was a well written character. What I really loved about that the love triangle between her, Jim and Pam was that there was no antagonist. All characters were relatable and likeable. And I love Rashida Jones in everything. She was the reason I started watching Parks and Rec, then I fell in love with everything else there.

I think most people were in a similar situation when somebody really likes us and we know we would be happy if we just give them a chance but for one reason or another, we're hung up on another person. Sometimes like in The Office, we make the right choice and we find everything we were looking for, and sometimes we realize we made a mistake until it's too late. Here the writers played it cool. Karen is beautiful, funny, hard worker and seems to genuinely like Jim but despite all of that Jim loves Pam and not much else will change that.

I personally wish that Karen and Jim could have influenced each other more. They both had ambition that pushed each other be better versions of themselves. I think Pam and Roy would have broken up no matter what after that kiss with Jim. It would have been cool to see her follow through with art school and earn her own confidence. Then whomever picks who at the end of the day I feel like it would have been healthier and more satisfying. What happened when Jim and Pam got together is a realistic view on how our personal growth can be stunted when we wrap our whole being into our relationship rather than being our own whole person who loves another healthy whole person.

I just don't understand all these argue and attempts to blame the characters for their behavior and finding out who's negative or positive. Here is the thing - no one is absolutely right, this serial is about being a human and making mistakes and irrational decisions! Jim was rejected and tried to move on and let his feelings go. Pam was very lost, at that moment everything she had was ruined, she didn't know what to do, and I'm 100% sure she also wanted to let Jim go. She tried really hard to support him - she didn't mean to be bitchy, but ofc she couldn't be absolutely happy for Karen and Jim. But what could she do? And what I really love about her character, is that she overcame her fears and finally started doing what she wanted and telling what she has been unconsciously hiding all these time. She accepted herself and her desires! And Karen is a really nice and mature personality who wanted to be happy and solve all the problems with her beloved one with long and hard chats. But it's impossible to live happily when your bf is still not over someone. And ofc she couldn't accept that Pam was always somewhere around. But here is a good saying - everything will be as it must be

Karen was a perfect… rebound. It sucks but that’s sometimes how it is. But Jim loved Pam. It’s by coincidence he had to go back to Scranton and be reminded of it. That’s life. Karen and him were compatible, but there was no passion. You need both and he had both with Pam. Also Karen wasn’t as free spirited as Pam. I couldn’t see Karen passionately kissing in the rain or wanting to be proposed at a gas station. Pam was a lot more feeling and understood/appreciated those moments and Karen was a lot more thought. Logically Karen and Jim. But realistically Jim and Pam.

Karen is a bad fit for Jim because she doesn't have any overwhelming flaws and is genuinely a nice person. Jim is lazy, has a superiority complex and his favourite past time is bullying his mentally disabled co-worker, who in contrast to Jim, has an excellent work ethic, despite his limitations.
