Steve Carell and Michael Scott will be missed on The Office. The show might make it past this hurdle but…it’s just so sad! Steve just filmed his last episode last week and it was an emotional time!
Frequent director Paul Feig dishes on Steve’s last episode,
It’s exactly what you would want it to be,” Feig told MTV News at the PaleyFest reunion event for his cult-favorite TV show, “Freaks and Geeks.” “It’s emotional, but it’s funny. It’s just a really nice mix and it sends Michael off in a good way. I’m thrilled with it,” he added. “I think fans of the show will be really happy with it.”
Speaking to that emotional aspect, Feig went on to say that there were plenty of tears shed on set.
“Half the time we were bawling and half the time we were trying not to laugh and ruin takes,” he admitted, adding that the presence of Will Ferrell helped keep things from getting too weepy. “The hilarity index is up even higher,” he said.
And judging from the reports we’ve received from castmembers, Ferrell is up to his old comedic tricks for his four-episode guest spot on “The Office.”
“He’s the nicest guy: just a sweetheart and so much fun,” Rainn Wilson told MTV News recently. “He is the new manager that Michael Scott has brought in to replace him, but we kind of swiftly realize that that’s a terrible idea. Terrible,” Wilson said.
I think Michael Scott goes off to follow his dream as an actor/director. I hope Holly follows him, what do you think the ending will be like?
