What’s the best way to prove to the many Will Ferrell detractors that this legendary funnyman is, in fact, funny?
Well, casting him in on The Office and making sure he’s the least funniest thing that has ever happened on the series isn’t one of them - and, yes, I’m including Ryan’s (B. J. Novak) stint at corporate.
If one good thing came out of the appropriately titled “Ferrel Debacle,” it was that producers realized they didn’t need to bring in outside talent to continue the series after Steve Carell left the series.
Sure, they did cast James Spader, but that’s just so they have an ace in their back pocket. Plus, Spader’s Robert California did hilariously nail what the Black Eyed Peas represent in last year’s Christmas episode.
