You do not have to wait for Hulu or Netfllix and you don't have pay iTunes or Amazon. And yes, with the proper internet connection, you will be able to ejoy these episdes in HD.

This is a big plus. If something comes up and you miss it, you can pop in your BD and watch it. Or if you just really liked it, you can watch it again. They will the previous 5 episodes up so you'll have around 5 weeks to rewatch them as much as you want.

The Office seems strong enough a series to be eventually released on blu-ray. I know they've redone the original seasons for HD and have seen HD versions of them. I wouldn't be surprised if we see a Michael Scott collection or something in the near future.
