I wouldn't rule out her coming back, though--after all, corporate feels bad for sending her away. Although apparently Toby is coming back this episode.

She added a lot to the show, and her sense of humor went so well with Michael's that it could throw you off a little. I'm hoping after the Winnipeg trip and Michael's phone call to corporate that is the beginning of more efforts to get her back in Scranton. It was also good to see Michael happy with someone.

Micheal could be considered the &amp;quot;tragic hero&amp;quot; of the show and losing Holly is a way for him to endure yet another punishing situation. Did you catch the end of the last episode as Michael spoke to his boss David on the phone? He hung up on David - something he'd have never done before. So don't worry, Holly will be back soon, even if Michael has to go visit her in NH for awhile.</description></item><item><title>Bring Holly back to 'The Office'</title><link>http://testpattern.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/11/18/1678247.aspx#1678991</link><pubDate>Tue, 18 Nov 2008 15:41:36 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:1678991</guid><dc:creator>HooHa Daddy</dc:creator><description>I want to be Jan's footslave for all eternity.&lt;br&gt; Holly will come back as soon as the writers can believably insert 'astird' back into the storyline as a cute but evil toddler.
