The cast of The Office is what helps to elevate it above other comedy shows, and there really isn’t a bad apple in the bunch when it comes to the original cast. You have Steve Carell balancing cringe and heart with Michael Scott, John Krasinski as the smarmy and charming Jim, Jenna Fischer as the witty receptionist Pam, Rainn Wilson being the only person who could play Dwight Schrute so perfectly, and much more.
Kelly, Creed, Toby, Stanley, Meredith, Ryan, Phyllis, Kevin, Oscar, Darryl, Angela, Erin, Andy, and the rest of the cast are all classic characters with their own moments. The actors brought their comedic A-game and helped to make The Office a classic. Just look at some of the casting tapes of other A-list celebrities auditioning for these roles, and you can see how perfectly suited each actor is.
