• Plot: we see Michael alone at home in front of the television → Michael is alone at home in front of the television
• Production: his second → his second credit
• Production: It goes to details that have nothing to do with the episode on the "production" directing part of the section. For example, he created this, wrote for this. There is a separate article for that.

• Production: "This episode is the only episode to date to have a quote to play over the Deedle-Dee Productions title card in the closing credits". Reference is needed. Honestly, I don't know if it needs to be even needs to be there.

• Production: copy-edit — "Halloween." → "Halloween"
• Cultural references: "Due to the presence of Halloween, many of the employees costumes reflect movie and literary characters. Kelly is dressed as Dorothy Gale, but Michael makes an insensitive remark about Bend It Like Beckham. Dwight is dressed as a Sith, one of the characters in the Star Wars universe capable of using the "dark side" of the Force". — All needs references
  • They all use the TV Guide and Television Without Pity source. I didn't re-add it, because you don't have to double up on the same citation at the end of every sentence, if it's understood that they use the same one--Gen. Quon (talk) 00:29, 19 June 2012 (UTC)

This means that it was seen by 4.1% of all 18- to 49-year-olds, and 10% of all 18- to 49-year-olds watching television at the time of the broadcast. The episode was the number one ranked episode among adults, men, and women in the 18–34 demographic, and achieved its highest 18–49 rating since the season's premiere. — References all definelty needed, most likely to ABC Medianet
