Top 10 Most Hated Office Characters

[@masonyoung1502]

I’m confused how it is justifiable criticism to be mad at Pam for kissing jim while she was engaged to Roy but Angela isn’t even on this list

[@LezbeOswald]

oop

[@Shikatsuyatsuke]

It’s because Angela was presented as a scummy character throughout the majority of the series until near the end when she got humbled. So her doing something terrible doesn’t necessarily make people hate her since we know she’s mainly a caricature of that super rude and obnoxious hypocrite of the cast. Pam is presented as one of the “good guys” of the cast. Someone who’s meant to stand for “good” on the moral spectrums presented by the show. So when Pam does something bad, it hits much harder since that’s not what’s expected from her character.

[@diegosotomiranda4107]

Cause the show tried so much to make her and jim the "good people" so their bad behaviour never had backlash or noticed, so that make her annoying for some viewers, and i personally hate the "vanilla" vibe they had too

The fact that Pam is hated for things that other characters aren’t even questioned for shows that Pam is the realest. The other characters mistakes are made into jokes and laughed off because of their personality. However pams are often written into the story and often developed into arcs because her character does make real mistakes and they do properly effect her, like any other human.

[@dr.florence]

I agree although I think the issue is that the others don't pretend to be anything they're not. Angela and Dwight are always rude and weird. That's authentic. Pam (and Jim) think they're the only sane ones around while they also bully, lie, act arrogant and generally misbehave. I had the impression they were hypocrites judging others from a high horse of self-righteousness. To me the most authentic person is Dwight.

[@doug176]

@@dr.florence what are you smoking

[@showmeyourteeth27]

It’s because with every other character, it is acknowledged every time they do something wrong. The show shines a negative light on it. The show never does that with Jim or Pam. They are always painted as the good guys, no matter what they do. Even when they do the EXACT same bad thing that another character did (who was made to look bad for it), it tries to nudge you into siding with Jim/Pam. If the show made them look wrong when they did things that were wrong like they do for everyone else and held everyone to the same standard... they wouldn’t be hated on the way that they are. The only time Pam was ever painted to be wrong... was the time she ruined Jim’s prank, which isn’t even bad. Everyone does bad things. But the show likes to pretend that some characters do no wrong.

[@NottherealLucifer]

​@@showmeyourteeth27Your ability to interpret the show is obviously dog shit. "The show wants you to like them, so I don't." Thanks for your hipster ass opinion. Is this a "Pam cheated too" argument? Angela FUCKED Dwight while engaged to Andy, and fucked Andy while telling Dwight she wasn't. Pam kissed a dude, even if you ignore the years of her boyfriend refusing to commit and being a total piece of shit, kissing one person isn't the same as repeatedly having cheating sex. Jim also isn't "shown to be the good guy" the show literally just plays out events, you can fucking react to it however you want. Jim is a level headed person who is cool in some ways, and a jerk in others, and the show doesn't hide that fact because if it did none of us would fucking be aware of his negetive qualities. You people just want to dislike popular characters. There are people like you about every dc character, medium, or topic in popular culture, you're easy to spot because your arguments are non sequiturs.

I think that it was very unnecessary. And it kinda seemed like the writers were out of ideas, so they just made Andy a douche.

I LOVED Andy so much until the 9th season. As a die-hard, "deep track" , Office fan...the ONLY beef I have with the entire series is what they did with Andy's character. I understand that they had to work around Helm's movie career but I just feel that the writers kind of gave up on his character all together and completely deserted the humanity that he showed from seasons 3 thru 8. He had such potential for so many greater things. It's almost like they threw us a bone by having him land solidly in the finale but I still hated how nasty, and desperate, his character became in season 9. Just my opinion though.

Everything that lead up to him going away, plus his parents that never really loved him going bankrupt and having him handle the mess, he went kind of insane, and of course he was a dick and crazy, he was going through a mental crisis on the inside. This is super obvious once he gets to the auditions show.

Jim and Pam are consistently used as the straight men in joke set ups and that is kindof what I am saying when I say the show doesn’t really intend for them to be bad people the way it does with Angela. Some things they do ARE presented as being wrong, like later when Jim is putting his new company over his family, but most of the stuff they do is clearly not meant to be perceived as bad. That’s why when they do things that aren’t actually great, like Jim just refusing to call Andy Drew, it comes off as more jarring because the show is not, in that moment, trying to say “hey look Jim is being a dick.”

After watching The Office for a while, I tended to forget that the series was ‘a documentary’ and the moment when Pam talked to Brain, it low key threw me for a loop and seriously humanized these fictional character for a second.

She just constantly holds back herself and the people around her due to her insecurities. For example, when she left Roy, he was noticeably happy and had his own business. Before, he was stuck in a job he hated solely because Pam wanted to have him there. Jim wanted to start his own business and Pam held him back because she didn’t want to deal with change. She isn’t interesting and she doesn’t have a defining personality that really makes her seem interesting. I mean compare Pam to Dwight, Jim, or Michael and the huge difference is the personality and jokes. In my opinion, that’s why she’s hated.

[@bigwilly43729]

@@Shockingbeard From what? I see this all the time, what is she holding him back from? Promotions at work? Jim is promoted several times at DM. When Wallace comes in to talk about making him a manager, Pam is sitting right there, cheering him on. Working in Philly? Jim actually works in Philly and leaves of his own volition. Working at corporate? Jim turned that down on his own. Working in Maryland? All Jim. Jim wants a family. Pam provides him with a family. What exactly is he being held back from? The main knock on Jim is that he doesn't care about his work. Is that something Pam is making him do? Literally every decision Jim makes is on his own, without her input. Buying a house, moving to Stamford, the Niagara Falls plan B at the wedding, working in Philly; all Jim Halpert. She factors into them, but he makes them on his own.

I feel like, of all the choices made during season 9, Clark is one of the few wins. It's a shame he had to leave for a chunk of episodes for the actor to film a movie because he had really good chemistry with Dwight. There is, though, the one episode where he gets super creepy with Erin about the whole TV hosting job which aged like milk. But aside from that, he was a great foil to the characters he was paired with. The actor found the right balance between him being a bit of a smartass but also having heart, and him trying to fit in with Dwight was always the best part of his episodes. Plop, on the other hand, was really boring and didn't have much chemistry with anyone. He was basically there just so they could get yet another romance going and ruin Andy's relationship with Erin.

I never have been exposed to the online community but I always liked pam for whatever reason. I think it’s because she genuinely seems like a good person with a good heart.

[@juliasrouvali1924]

I think that pam is great representation of normal girl. She doesn't have any super special qualities positive or negative

Honestly I think people don’t like Brian because he “tried to split up Jim and Pam”, but I think he was a good friend to Pam when Jim wasn’t there for her. No marriages are perfect, and Jim and Pam’s was strong enough to make it through. I AM NOT saying Brian should have got with Pam WHATSOEVER!! I’m just saying it’s not really fair to hate him just because he had a crush on Pam. Edit: Also the part when Brian is fighting off Frank it was funny bc they look like they’re hugging

[@rapidprimus]

We don't hate him for his crush on Pam, we hate him for intentionally subverting their relationship. It is similar with Pam and Jim vs Roy except that Jim was a good husband and Brian was way to pushy.

[@riley315]

@@rapidprimus That makes sense too!

[@bigwilly43729]

@@rapidprimus He didn't really (try to) subvert anything. They were already fighting before he's introduced, and the issue they develop because of him is due to Pam not telling Jim about her crying at her desk.

I’m sorry, normally I’d take a passive approach and say you’re entitled to your own opinion, and I’m normally a laid back, love everyone kind of person, but I hate Nellie so much all the way through to the end of the show because of how she started off.

[@laursieloise]

@@noahsduck4109 i’m pretty sure if we knew most office characters in real life we’d hate them. they’re characters not real people put in a style of show that tries to convince you they are real people which is part of the comedy of it. i think that nellie had some really funny moments and i’m def a nellie defender tho i do think that if she was never kept on as a character, the show wouldn’t feel different. but the fact you wouldn’t like her as a person isn’t fair criticism for a show like the office

@@indigotears I wasn’t trying to argue (which I realize that by commenting like I did that doesn’t make sense.) I also wasn’t expecting to change your mind, and you’re right she has some funny moments. Personally though I just got through the episode where she took over as manger and I, as Andy would say, “misdirected my anger lol

[@no_eggroll_4u]

I actually quite liked Robert. He was so weird and uncomfortable but the fact that he couldn’t see that makes it funny to me

[@BecketTheHymnist]

I think he knew but just didn't care. He was constantly dropping uncomfortable truths that people don't want to hear. It was fantastically awkward and some of the best writing on The Office in my opinion. I think his embrace of these uncomfortable truths make him rub off as a bitter and cruel person. In contrast to that the fantasy land Michael lives in make him rub off as a childish and foolish person. Maybe they both in fact DO manifest these traits in their nature as well as their demeanor, but there is still plenty of complexity beyond that. Robert is in a way the antithesis of Michael.

[@mckennalauren]

Michael talked about that double-standart well enough.

[@southweststrangla9591]

She knew it was only temporary transfer to Scranton, because Toby was returning after strangler case, so it was fine having long distance for couple months, first time with Michael she thought she'd stay in Nashua for rest of her career so no real way to continue.
