Ranking Of The 17 Main Characters Of The Office (U.S.)

Guess what? I have flaws. What are they? Oh I donno, I sing in the shower? Sometimes I spend too much time volunteering. Occasionally I'll hit somebody with my car. So sue me-- no, don't sue me. That is opposite the point I'm trying to make. - Michael Scott

Honarable Mention: Gabe Lewis

Despite him not being a main character on the show, I felt the need to mention him. His dressing up as Abe Lincoln was possibly one of the greatest moments on the entire show.

17. Toby Flenderson

Michael would approve of Toby’s ranking.

16. Ryan Howard

As a huge Kelly Kapoor fan, Ryan loses a lot of points for being a jerk to her for a solid 8 out of 9 seasons, until the finale episode basically.

15. Angela Martin

We loved and we hated Angelia. She is a total weirdo, which made her a great character. Her devotion to her cats is unheard and creepy, but her cheating on the beloved Andy Bernard was a downfall in her character.

14. Phyllis Lapin

Being the grandma of the office, she had her moments.

13. Andy Bernard

His passion for his Cornell University a cappella group give him a love/hate relationship with just about everyone.

12. Darryl Philbin

He gets some major credit for maintaining a relationship with Kelly Kapoor for more than five seconds.

11. Oscar Martinez

Oscar’s greatest moments are always related to his hilarious semi-friendship with Kevin Malone, which of course by default makes Oscar a favorite character.

10. Meredith Palmer

She deserves a reasonable ranking out of pity from the notorious Michael Scott car hit she took in season 4.

9. Stanley Hudson

Between Stanley’s affair, constant complaining, and a lack of interest in his work, he makes the ideal crowd favorite.

8. Creed Bratton

A picture is worth one thousand words.

7. Erin Hannon

The clueless and lovable receptionist who we all loved when she dated both Andy and Gabe.

6. Kevin Malone

“I just wanna lie on the beach and eat hot dogs. That's all I've ever wanted.”

5. Kelly Kapoor

Every girl’s anti-role model for relationships, but we love her anyways.

4. Pam Beesly

Pam Beesly, everyone’s favorite office mom/wife. Plus she’s married to Jim, so she gets a lot of bonus points for that.

3. Jim Halpert

His smile says it all (and the fact that he puts everything Jell-o).

2. Dwight schrute

Between his farm, his bizarre relationship with Angela, his glasses, his outfits and his crazy cousin Mose, there isn’t anything to dislike about him.

1. Michael Scott

Michael Scott is not only the best character on the show, but he is also possibly the greatest television character ever.
