Season 9: Office Cast

When The Office returned for its ninth and final season in the fall of 2012, it was a show caught between two worlds. The ghost of Steve Carell’s Michael Scott still lingered in the Dunder Mifflin break room, and the previous season had struggled to find its footing without him. Yet, Season 9 is now remembered as a scrappy, heartfelt victory lap—a return to form that honored the documentary crew’s journey and gave the characters the endings they deserved.
