Andy is worse than you think
NBC/Peacock
In the episode titled "Product Recall," airing in 2007, Dunder-Mifflin scrambles after an obscene image is seen watermarked on papers sent out all over the county. Jim and Andy are tasked with quelling an angry principal at a local high school. Andy soon discovers that his girlfriend Jamie (Shira Scott Astrof) is a student, causing him to spiral. Though Jamie is obviously underage, Andy is disturbingly oblivious. By the end of the episode, Andy is pouting in front of the principal, deriding the girl for deceiving him.
On the streaming platform Peacock, audiences can watch longer episodes featuring unseen footage called Superfan episodes. The Superfan episode for "Product Recall" expands upon Andy's relationship. Upon discovering Jamie was a high school student, Andy recalls that she was well-versed in topics taught in high school, a clear sign of her age. While waiting to meet the principal, Andy reveals how he met Jamie, further incriminating himself, revealing that he purchased alcohol for her. By the end, he confronts Jamie while Jim awkwardly strikes up a conversation with Jamie's friend. Because audiences never saw these additional scenes, fans never got to see just how deplorable Andy can be.
Even without these scenes, it seems the Reddit community has pretty strong feelings (https://www.reddit.com/r/DunderMifflin/comments/9ff9k9/why_do_so_many_people_hate_andy_bernard/) about him, some believing he got worse every season (https://www.looper.com/946479/the-office-character-that-got-worse-every-season/). In a Reddit thread posted on "The Office" subreddit, user u/SarcasticGamer (https://www.reddit.com/r/DunderMifflin/comments/p1st1q/opinion_i_absolutely_cant_stand_andy_at_any_point/) posted a diatribe expressing their hatred for Andy, so much so that they feel like the character ruins the show, questioning any development at all explaining, "...I think it's partly why I can't rewatch the show without getting annoying at some point... Did he even have any character growth at all? I feel like he's exactly the same from beginning to end except less angry..."
