Steve Carell leaving The Office!

They've been going down hill, but I thought last season was the best in awhile. This is rather depressing.

Steve Carell is leaving 'The Office' next May, E! confirms.

Carell told BBC in April that his contract expires at the end of this season and he did not plan to renew it. Now he has made it clear he wasn't just holding out for a better salary.

"I just think it's time," Carell told E! "I want to fulfill my contract. 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."

best show on tv still. the kathy bates stuff was lame but she's rarely on now. it's the same freaking writers and actors and humor, nothing has changed to warrant people claiming it used to be funny but isn't anymore. tends to just be hipsters who can never admit anything is good.

anyways it'll be hard to replace Michael Scott. i'd like to see the show continue, but it's hard to imagine it without him.

out of the current cast, only Dwight would be a hilarious new lead/manager.

People still watch that show? Smart move of Carrell to bail IMO. That show jumped the shark during the marriage/divorce plots.

jumped the shark? getting married is the natural progression of a love story.

are you sure you know what jumped the shark means? it means doing something ludicrous to try to draw ratings. like a monkey cast member. or jumping a shark on a motorcycle.

characters in love getting married i'm not sure qualifies.

And I thought they milked the hell out of the whole Pam/Jim thing to get ratings.

It's just me I guess. I was never interested in that portion of the plot and only really watched the show for the inane humor and office antics. Once that part of the show became secondary to the characters' love lifes, I stopped caring. It always felt like filler to me.

    • Dan tends to attack one specific position group per offseason and the sprinkle others throughout the roster. He extended Moton, signed Hunt, Lewis, Nijman one offseason and then extended Brown and signed Wharton and Hunt and drafted Jackson next offseason. My guess is he attacks LB and Edge this offseason.    1. What do you do with Icky? Likely a scratch for next season and due a massive contract (if healthy) They will bring back Nijman and Christensen and draft a guy on Day 2 is my guess and hope one of them can fill the hole. 2. Coker has the talent for 2nd WR, but do you pay a guy who gets hurt that premium? I think hes your number 3 simply due to risk. Will the Panthers seek another vet or go surprisingly high in the draft? They will probably sign him more and longer than the RFA Tender to keep him happy and not break the bank in the process. Can see them getting a Vet in FA like Tutu Atwell or Hollywood Brown. Somebody with speed but also isn’t overly expensive. I think Horn and Tremayne stick around and unfortunately Legette. I wouldn’t be surprised to see Tremble released and a real TE in brought in, there is a good FA group this year. 3. Do you give X more feature time? Or cut bait now? I wouldn’t be surprised if they traded him but I’m willing to bet he gets one more year. Maybe Canales can find a role like Shenault had with McAdoo.  4. Planning the long term/short term on OL Like I said I think Christensen and Nijman are brought back for T with a Day 2 rookie and prayer something sticks. Moton, Hunt, Lewis return ofcourse. Probably resign Corbett as a safeguard at Center but I think they go C in the 1st or 2nd. Wouldn’t be shocked to see Morgan trade to the back end of the 1st to get a solid C and add picks. 5. How do you address LB? I think Rozeboom leaves. Hoping CJ Allen or Sonny Styles is still there is too big of a risk. They probably go get Kaden Elliss or Leo Chenal and pay good money for them. Maybe a guy on Day 3 for depth with Cherelus and Martin-Scott. Also think he takes a swing at Edge, wouldn’t be shocked to see Hendrickson or Oweh here.  6. Do you bank of Chuba bouncing back?    I think Chuba remains Chuba. There are some decent change of pace backs out there this year that will be cheap. Still developing Etienne and Brooks may be healthy. I think it’s Chuba and that crew maybe a veteran that’s not Dowdle. More like Deejay Dallas who was here already once.    I also think Dalton calls it and they get an upgrade at back up. Nobody that wouldn’t endanger Bryce’s job but somebody that isn’t 55 years old either.   
    • This is my answer. If I got board I would just do guest drop ins to obscure podcasts but would definitely collect the cash from Tepper.
