The Office US is the ultimate example of how to successfully remake an already brilliant TV series. While the American show's first episode (and most of its first season) was literally copy and pasted from the original British version, the show's second season managed to establish the distinctive comedic tone and style of the beloved sitcom.

After the shaky start the show managed to retain the elements that people loved from the original while adding something new for an American audience and in the process creating some stellar TV. However, like even the best shows it managed to outstay its welcome after Steve Carell - who brought Michael Scott to life - left at the end of season 7.

Alongside Carell deciding to leave after seven seasons there were several other reasons that led to the fall of the once great American sitcom. From the overreliance on guest stars like Will Ferrell, Idris Elba and James Spader to the increasingly ridiculous cliffhangers (will Jim have an affair?), here are the many ways The Office went from great to terrible...

• 10. Dragging Out Jim And Pam's Relationship
  
• 9. The Characters Becoming Friends
  
• 8. Reliance On Nostalgia

• 4. Andy Bernard's Inconsistent Character

Nellie and Robert California were HORRIBLE characters.

I liked Jo Bennett. She came on during the Michael Scott episodes. Any new characters post Scott were awful IMO.

Yes Robert came off as normal but eventually turned out to be a weirdo
