No way. Michael made you feel something. Love and hate him at the same time. This guy didn’t make sense. He just spoke down to everyone in a weird voice. Very strange
What I love about this is we now know everybody about Robert California. This is like the charactors back story, like when Erin did the impression it showed that California had a sense of humor about himself while everyone was always scared of him. This is amazing, I wish they would do something like this for every minor charactor in a hit show.

Let's be honest everyone, USA is not the only American country. Not even the only ones who are a bunch of States United in North America (Mexico is another great example). We are just arrogant self centered douches who wanna think we're the only Americans in the world even tho we stole cultural staples from Latin America, Africans, Carribeans and Europeans.

Though Michael Scott IS missed, Robert California is my favorite character, besides Stanley on the show. Spader really brought a different flavor to a show that was in some ways suffering post- Carell
I really liked his character too. Also, my favourite scene of the whole series was at California's party and Gabe and Ryan dancing to the bitter end for Robert to notice their commitment.
tbh i think if some of those scenes were left in the final cut people might like this character a bit more. there is some very good stuff in there, a couple of scenes that make robert look almost like a human being instead of a lizard
You know, if someone doesn’t want to click the bell icon, adding an annoying “DING!” sound effect won’t change their mind. Adding _multiple_ annoying ding sounds _definitely_ won’t.
I always thought it would be cool if they combined Robert California and Ray Reddington into the same character. James Spader is practically the same in both lol
Apparently spader made the cast uncomfortable with his character taking it in a cringe tense dorection. I absolutely loved robert California. It made the show 3x funnier w him in it w his overly sexualized character lmao
His character made for hilarious body language among Pam and Jim. Pam cringing away and Jim looking alert, concerned, and ready to move Pam away from California. 😹😹
True, for me it was how he set everyone up (esp driving Erin Home knowing he will be followed?) and then his Epic House episode lol his wife’s job was funny in a human way. 2nd best character next to Michael, HAIL THE LIZARD KING!!!
He was def one of those characters that wasn’t appreciated during the shows original run, office fans usually re watch these episodes religiously so it’s very easy to start to appreciate Robert on the 4th or 5th watch.

Kids don't understand the genius of Robert California.... including him in the series was a great move
That's real laughter from James Spader at Erin's impression.
Robert California was one of my favorite. Pure comedy genius. 😂
Same
Erin's impersonation of Robert was fantastic. Should of left that in.
Felt to out of character for Erin, she wasn't smart enough to pull that off.
@@cameron2325 She's not a one-dimensional character though, just because she's ditzy doesn't mean she can't imitate someone else.

Loved them equally! Roberts short run was perfect tho.
He was an elitist. You haven't worked with the grownups until you've worked for one.
Cuz it was a dumb revolving door character.
Michael is the shows greatest character. Robert barely makes the top 20.
He couldn't keep a straight face at Erin's impression
"There's something about an underdog, that really inspires... the unexceptional" - Robert California.
I feel like the deleted scenes give Robert more of a character and personality than the actual scenes on the show
I liked how he looked so genuinely sad, like people get at Christmas time, when he was looking at the tree.
i actually loved him and he’s the reason why i started to watch the blacklist
Same & i have zero regrets
I need to watch Blacklist.

These are some of the funniest Office scenes I've ever seen! And I've watched The Office like three times all the way through!
I feel like the more I watch the deleted scenes, the more I want a super cut with them ALL back in (unless they break the story due to changes etc)
They’ve done this for the first four seasons on peacock premium - office super fan episodes they are called - add a decent bit to the story
You know, if someone doesn’t want to click the bell icon, adding an annoying “DING!” sound effect won’t change their mind. Adding _multiple_ annoying ding sounds _definitely_ won’t.

A great character who brought something completely different to the show.
Raymond Reddington when he was hiding from the FBI
He had his hand in the paper business too! 😅

He's basically Alan Shore compressed into an Office character. I need to rewatch his seasons.
