“Oh the spring time thinks that it’s the best, and fall time thinks that it’s the best. Cold time has, kind of a strut, and Valentines thinks that it’s the best. But gather ‘round peeps, I’ll tell you the truth; nothing beats the cookie season, that’s the truth!”

There are so many great Kevin moments that it's hard to keep track, but singing You Oughta Know at the Christmas party, crying when Michael confronts him about talking to Gabe, and his uncontrollable laughter when he forgot about Oscar and the Senator jump to mind right away.
And unrelated to Kevin... when Andy is filling in as receptionist:
Andy: "Hey Darryl, good news... that fax went through."
Darryl: "Aw #&%$ yeah!"

I liked in the later seasons when Kevin would occasionally show up in a toupée.

The cold open with Kevin and the chili. It's so hilarious and heartbreaking all at the same time.

I'm about two episodes from the end of the series again and all I can think of is whether there's something else I want to watch before I start over again.
