In the end, Andy made a complete fool of himself by having a mental breakdown during a singing competition show, and his meltdown was turned into an internet meme. While many of the characters got a fitting finale, the one that really stood out was Andy's. In the penultimate episode of The Office, it's revealed that the documentary has been completed, coupled with exactly what happened in the main cast's futures. While Andy Bernard (Ed Helms) was certainly not the most lovable character in The Office, he didn't deserve his season 9 arc that culminated with the Andy The Office bad ending. It's possible the writers didn't know what to do with Helms by the final season, but his unlikable presence tarnished the character's legacy. His poor treatment of others seemed unwarranted for someone rarely present at the workplace. By popping in and out of the narrative, it was harder for viewers to accept Andy's behavior. Rather than write him out of the show, Andy was given off-screen storylines. That resulted in Andy's absence from the sitcom for periods of time.

Due to his rising popularity following The Hangover, Helms split time between The Office and movie projects. While one theory suggested Andy's change of demeanor stemmed from the "alcohorse" incident, the real issues seemed to come from the writing.Īnother question that's often asked is: why did Andy leave The Office? Filming schedules became an issue for Helms, as he continued to get starring movie roles.
It was almost as if Andy lost all of the positive character development during his trip. When he returned, he reverted to his old ways, being tone-deaf, cocky, and self-centered. Interestingly, Andy was sent to Outward Bound for manager training ahead of the final season.
Erin stood by Andy's side during the difficult situations surrounding his career and family matters, but he never appreciated her. Not only was Andy terrible to Nellie and other co-workers, but he was truly awful to Erin in The Office season 9.
