Steve Carell is Leaving “The Office”
Tags: leaving, michael scott, steve carell, the office
After playing Dunder Mifflin regional manager Michael Scott for the last six years, Steve Carell will not be returning to “The Office” after his contract expires next season. According to People Magazine:
“I just think it’s time,” he said at the premiere of his new movie, Despicable Me, Sunday in L.A. “When I first signed on I had a contract for seven seasons, and this coming year is my seventh. I just thought it was time for my character to go.”
“[This might] add some new life and some new energy to the show. [The writers] have incorporated so many new characters and so many new, great storylines that I have no doubt it’ll continue as strong, if not stronger than ever.”
I can’t imagine the Scranton branch dynamic without Steve Carell. It just seems wrong. But like Michael Scott said, “There comes a time when the Daddy cannot take a bath with the kids anymore, as much as he might want to.” I’m sure this was really hard on everyone. *sniff* That’s what she said!

Since the show is a remake about a funny as a nail in your foot, then I don’t think he’ll be missed. Come to think of it, he himself is about as funny as a nail in the foot so good luck with that buddy.
