The Office: Why Andy Was Made So Unlikable In Season 9

Andy Bernard became extremely unlikable in The Office season 9, and there could be a few factors explaining the much-asked question: why did The Office ruin Andy? Ed Helms played the role since the character’s introduction in the sitcom’s third season. Originally an employee at Dunder Mifflin’s Stamford branch, Andy relocated to Scranton when the two offices merged. Though he tried to make a great first impression on manager Michael Scott (Steve Carrell), Andy turned out to be a terrible salesperson. Still, Helms’ character was made manager for two seasons before the show came to an end. His increased role at the company coincided with Andy’s drastically different personality.
