OK, I've actually seen it now and as someone who defends season 8 as still being good television, I thought season 9's opener was pretty poor.
I mean, it had funny moments and it's far from the worst they've done, but given that this was a season premier and written and directed by Gregg Daniels, stepping in to try and "save" the show in its final season, allowing it to go out with a bang... well... there was next to no plot, it was illogical in places (Andy having a problem with Nellie) and whilst bits were funny, bits were also not.
I hope this isn't one of the season's highpoints, but rather, one of the low-points is, I guess, what I'm trying to say.

Are people still actually watching this show? I stopped a few seasons ago. To me, the final episode was the proposal episode. Then they had to do a Scrubs thing and recast the crew and make it spinoffy...ugh...

Surely the "final" episode was the one where Michael actually leaves as opposed to the one where he proposes? It's not quite on par with Scrubs seeing as they only replaced one character, too. I thought season 8 was weaker, but still good TV and it had a handful of great episodes dotted around. Season 9 seems to be even weaker so far, but I'm hopeful it'll contain a few gems again.

Well, maybe they didn't replace many characters but they mixed it up with new ones and the roles of old characters got moved around, like Andy. Who is acting essentially like the new Michael in a different package...alright.
