You forgot sweet. The thing that made the whole show work, the glue, was Steve Carell. The fact that he wanted to be liked and loved more than a boss was what made him endearing. You have funny shows like Seinfeld but they dont have a loyal following like the office because the central character was funny but not endearing.

I lost 50 pounds, went to therapy once every two weeks, and did everything I could to respect her space while also trying to change for us. she never came home, but one day a coworker said “everyday I see the pain you are in, and my heart breaks for you, but I want you to know that I am proud of you! Look at you! Know that you are worth it” And that one genuine hug, and comment really helped me fight alot of inner demons.

Which so many times is dictated to the viewer instead of just letting them experience it themselves, like art is supposed to do (there is the artists intent, and the viewers perception.

The best thing here is that he is REALLY looking at her work. Not just saying “oh these are nice” he is looking at the details and asking questions. He sees things that she has done that he knows he could not, and is honestly impressed by them. You can tell by her posture at first that she is just waiting for him to make a joke or say something mean, and slowly realize that he is not making fun of her, and really means what he is saying. When he tells her how proud he is of her it just overwhelms her. Such a great scene.

Isnt part of all of this that Michael had such a tacky taste? This is why he likes it and noone else does, which stirs contradictory emotions in Pam. She both feels "ah, someone likes it" and "oh no.... he likes it." It's funn because its bad and awkward
@Tessro8342 жыл бұрын
I think Michael’s dynamic change with the rest of the characters was a great part of the show; Pam’s specifically. He started out kind of “romanticizing” her, but by the end he became more of a father figure to her. I think the characters in this show go from being immature to actually understanding one another, it’s very sweet.

Side note. There's a deleted scene where Michael asks everyone if they ever imagined having a different boss and everyone says yes. He goes on to say maybe a different boss wouldn't allow two of his employees, (Jim and Pam), to have a relationship and send one to a different branch. It's another amazing scene revealing just how awesome of a boss Michael really was.

He never set out with ill intent (minus Toby). He was oblivious to his words and actions and its a big reason why he was so great. The complete idiot.

Michael ultimately says its not efficiency that makes a business but the people that work at it. The humanity of it. Michael in turn is the only person to tell Pam she's enough. She's valued without getting anything in return. Michael shows that sometimes the best thing for humanity is to be a human being.

But how Michael praises her art and realizes that her art is made on paper and I think it's their companies paper brought closure to Michael that the company still had a future.

That was always the key to his character. Everything he did was from the heart; he always meant well even if he was a buffoon or insensitive or tone-deaf. This is also how he differed from David Brent of the UK Office, and even the Michael Scott character of the first season, which was much closer to David Brent. The writers heavily retooled the character after the first season because Michael just wasn't likeable enough to carry the series, and they couldn't build a multi-season comedy around a main character that nobody could empathize with.

Regarding a poorly attended gallery show leading to an artist quitting... pretty much only in fiction. For most artists, particularly freehand drawers, rendering in paint, pencil, charcoal, etc. is just a way one manages life, more language than performance. But pop culture's rendering of visual artists has no patience for that reality. Instead every artist is depicted either excessively ego fragile (Pam) or a sociopath who obsesses over others' failure to recognize their genius.

When he points at details like the cars, that hits differently for artists. Sometimes we focus a lot of time on details that usually no one really cares to bother

When I do an illustration for a client I'll make some changes or corrections. I usually don't tell the client. Those changes are usually for me and to make me satisfied with the work. I'm sure nobody will ever notice but sometimes that client will see it...I don't know how...and they'll say "I'm glad you did that. Makes the whole thing work." And I'm just amazed...the rest of my day is made.

@@Farbar1955 Ohhh I love to do that! I always add extra little things in, especially when it's for someone that's grieving. Within 3 years, we had 4 cats dying in our neighbourhood (all because of kidneyproblems and one got run over.) 3 people appreciated a painting (for free.) I made sure that each and every painting was special for the owner. The first owner was a massive fan of Ajax football, so I drew his cat, walking a golden stairs, up to the orange-pink clouds in sunset, where the Greek God Ajax was welcoming him with his hand stretched out towards him, as if to say; "You're one of us now, you can live with the gods, here." The second cat wasn't painted, I did print out some photographs I had of her. The third one, was painted in the space-universe, playing with stars and planets, as if they were knitting-balls of yarn. And the fourth one was a Japanese cat, with the name Yuki Mura. The owner was a very organised man and he loved Japanese culture. Now, if you look up the name Yuki Mura in kanji, youll see that it's similar to a cat-face, on the left. So I painted her fur-pattern, with the kanji on top of that and added two little ears to the 'Yuki"-cat shape. A very abstract painting, he very much appreciated it. :) I'll put the Yuki up here btw, I hope it works. It's one of the spellings you can use, there's several: 雪

Josh Wiseman it’s a very strong representation of who Michael is. He always sees the positive in things even if he lacks self awareness at times. So the fact that he got humiliated at Ryan’s class didn’t stop him from being Michael at Pams art show. It’s actually a really deep scene in context for both characters.

Josh Wiseman ....because alot of people who met setbacks in their personal life don’t often feel to go out of their way to be there for other people? The fact that Michael does it, speaks alot about his character and his relationship with Pam?

Honestly, I broke down crying during this scene. It is the moment when Michael's development as a character completes itself. It is in this scene that we realize how Michael genuinely loves everybody in his office, and is never afraid to show it, whereas all the others, who claim to be better than Michael, actually are afraid to show their emotions to the detriment of their happiness. Sure, Michael is very awkward and childish, but all this comes from the desire to be accepted and from a tough childhood. And, as Ricky Gervais put it, there is a piece of Michael Scott in each of us. We all, sometimes, are silly in the attempt to be liked by others.

There was one time Michael was going to prank Toby, the police got called and when Toby was in serious danger of getting nailed for drug possession when it was not drugs, Michael stepped in and saved him.... begrudgingly. And very unapologetic afterwards. There was, somewhere in there, a shred of human compassion in Michael for Toby.

I love the "Unless you had a Camera" line because it means 2 things. 1. Its just funny, paper is useless if you have a photo. but, more importantly, 2. Her art is so good and accurate that it may as well be a photo, which is a massive compliment that he didn't even mean to make.

Nobody is talking about the context of this scene and how everyone passing by disregarded her work and made fun of her. Oscar and his boyfriend came to see her work only to ridicule it while they thought she wasn’t present to hear them. Michael was the only one who came and the only one who complimented her art.
