Comments on: Why James Spader is a Better Boss than Steve Carell http://unrealitymag.com/index.php/2011/10/11/why-james-spader-is-a-better-boss-than-steve-carell/ Sat, 25 May 2013 00:17:59 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.5.1 By: Adam http://unrealitymag.com/index.php/2011/10/11/why-james-spader-is-a-better-boss-than-steve-carell/#comment-426019 Adam Tue, 11 Oct 2011 19:17:50 +0000 http://unrealitymag.com/?p=46948#comment-426019 I don’t think that Robert California is better than Michael Scott, he’s just different and I think The Office needs that now. R.C. is a very interesting character and James Spader is awesome (Allen Shore!!). Both J. S. as an actor and the character can help to bring depth and life to both the humor and personality of the show, so here’s to hoping the writers don’t waste this great opportunity.

I don’t know if it’s James Spader doing this on his own or the character but he looks right into the camera at the oddest times and I find it hilarious (I can’t think of one example at the moment) I don’t know if it’s the way he stares or what…just funny to me.

That works on a cartoon to be that idiotic, but no one acts like he did at times.

Also, totally agree. I'm not a big fan of Carell's humor either.

Is Spader’s character awesome, yes, but he’s not in any way meant to be a comedic replacement for “Michael Scott”.
