1. I think it's good that your description isn't a traditional descriptions that is boring and strictly informative. It's a smart idea to try to evoke the readers curiosity and get them in the mood to learn more about the craziness of The Office.

2. Your narrative appears to be to "shed a light on the obsessed and strange fandom caused by such an obsessable and strange show." Which could be a little tricky to differ it from the grand or usual narrative about The Office. However, you present it all in a different way with the unique items you've collected.

3. I like the arrangement, maybe you could do more to influence the reader and the experience they might have looking through your exhibit. Maybe offer the viewer an option to view the exhibit through the eyes of a particular character...

4. The Office is silly and people love it. It makes you think more about why this is. Why do people relate or like you said, why it is "obsessable."

5. I learned that people really have become obsessed with the office in many ways and for different reasons. It's crazy that the demand for real Dunder Mifflin paper was so great that NBC found a way to provide this product for fans.

6. I think you should extend more on the idea of getting the reader to be more interactive in browsing the exhibit. Because The Office is so silly, you have a lot of options for this. I would just try to be more creative than the other blah exhibits that hand you all the info in a plain manner.

7. You have a lot of good material, especially for this project. I think you've compiled a good amount of really different and unusual items that help to explain how The Office makes fans react.
