There had to be a better way to handle it, though.

Yeah he had that whole long arc where he was the sweet one that really cared about Erin. Then he just didn't.

Andy was always pretty bad as I recall:

Suck up
Anger problems
Competitive over an inter office romance
Just outright annoying about acapella and Cornell
Leaving the office and his girlfriend for some sailboat dream he never mentioned before

I suppose it could be argued about redeeming himself for Erin before setting sail, Id have to rewatch it. As I recall he went to Florida and changed her life plan in the name of love or something.

Of course this is a comedy sitcom and Im clearly taking it way too seriously.


Early Andy was annoying, but when he becomes manager he actually spends a couple seasons being really likeable and earnest. After Michael Scott left, he was honestly the highlight of the show until the last season and a half where he just goes back to being a selfish petty asshole.

Why did they even continue the show after Steve Carrell left?

Because most of the writers were also leads on the show. Even with Carrell gone, when your writers are also all of your remaining actors they're pretty incentivized to keep the show going.

Kinda reminds me of Spin City after Michael Fox left because of his illness. We lost a good chunk of the cast except for Paul, the Mayor, Carter and Steward

I knew it was over as soon as I saw Ferrell.

Im not gonna say the office was better or even as good after carrell left, but it was still decent and had some funny episodes.

The best days for the series were already in the rear view before he left anyway
