Deleted The Office Scene Explains 7 Years Of Offensive Michael Scott Characters

Some of the best comedy in The Office comes from Michael Scott’s offensive and stereotypical alter egos, but a deleted scene gives further context to them. Steve Carell plays many personas as the lead character of The Office cast. These include Prison Mike and Date Mike, both of which are hilarious and cringe-worthy, showcasing Michael unorthodox approach to management. While many of these characters are designed to entertain or provide comedic relief, they also highlight a more profound aspect of Michael’s personality: his penchant for using alter egos as a means of communication. Michael often uses these alter egos to teach his employees lessons, even if they tend to offend.
