Goodbye Michael Scott


            Last Thursday The Office crew said farewell to their boss Michael Scott.  He left the show by moving to Colorado with his fiance Holly.  It was an emotional episode for everyone and also for viewers.  Steve Carell has played the part of Michael Scott for six seasons so what will happen to the show without him?
            Viewers will miss his funny jokes, ignorace to what is going on around him and also his catch phrases.  He was the center of the show and now everyone wonders who that new center will be.  Another character in The Office can take over as the new ‘center’ of the show or they can find someone new.  No one is sure about what will happen but they are sure that The Office will continue to go on without the fun-loving boss Michael Scott.
            Michael Scott’s successor will be revealed May 19 in the season finale, packed with guest stars including Ricky Gervais (creator of "The Office" and star of the British version), Will Arnett ("Arrested Development"), James Spader ("Boston Legal") and Ray Romano ("Men of a Certain Age"), plus Will Ferrell, introduced last week, and British comic actress Catherine Tate.
            Although Michael Scott will be missed, fans of The Office can look forward to new and exciting stars as well as someone new to fill in Michael Scott’s place.  This show is far from over and will be enjoyed for many more seasons.  Maybe Steve Carrell will pop in for some appearances later on in other seasons as well.
