It turns out that Deangelo went brain dead after the accident. Ferrell's stint on The Office was short but it was certainly memorable. He introduced a new chapter of the sitcom. Although nobody was able to replace Carell, it was amusing to see special guest stars try at their chance to become the next manager on the series.
Spader went on to become the next branch manager, at least for a short time. Kara Hedash is a features editor and writer for Screen Rant. From time to time, she dives into the world's most popular franchises but Kara primarily focuses on evergreen topics.
The fact that she gets to write about The Office regularly is like a dream come true. After graduating college, writing began as a part-time hobby for Kara but it quickly turned into a career. He belittled Andy in front of the client and spoke utter nonsense. The client declined to make a deal and the men left empty-handed.
Andy had to call the client afterward and smooth things over, but it wasn't with the help of Deangelo. Jo is a solid businesswoman who knows how to command a room. When it comes to business and money, she doesn't waste time or mess around.
With Michael leaving, Jo presumably did her research to find the right fit for the Scranton branch. Seeing as Deangelo and Michael were so similar, she made a good choice in choosing the former as the new regional manager. It later came out that she chose Deangelo because he saved her dogs from being stolen but that's beside the point When Deangelo first met Jim and Pam, they tried getting on his good side by talking about their daughter, CeCe.
As the father of four kids, Deangelo was interested in Jim and Pam's home life but that soon faded. It got to a point where Deangelo didn't care about their baby and was quite rude to them. Being so aggressive over an employee's family life is a low blow. To keep it professional, he could have held a meeting about keeping home life at home while in the office setting.
To be a regional manager or a person of power, one must know how to command a room. That person needs to be organized, well-rehearsed, and charming. Deangelo was all of these things when he started at Dunder Mifflin. He was instantly respected by those under him and he made favorable promises to the group.
Having this kind of personality could make anyone a solid manager as long as they put in the hard work. When it came to inclusivity, Deangelo didn't know the meaning of the word. He made his favorite employees known by creating secret meetings in his office that were by text invitation only.
This became known as the inner circle. Darryl, Kevin, Jim, and Gabe were the first members of the group but as soon as someone disagreed or step out of line, Deangelo kicked them out by not inviting them to the next "inner circle" meeting.
In "The Inner Circle", Deangelo picks favorites among the staff, revealing his true management style. Angela however, views his style as sexist. When the women urge Jim to bring this to Deangelo's attention, he cuts Jim out of his inner circle.
After several failed attempts, he finally earns Dwight's respect by yelling at him, as the latter is impressed by his strong leadership. When Deangelo brags about his ability to dunk in basketball, Jim calls him out on the matter, so Deangelo nervously agrees to show his skills. During his lackluster attempt, the entire basketball stand collapses on Deangelo, causing an injury that results in his hospitalization. At the episode's conclusion, Deangelo stumbles into the office still in his hospital gown, his head bandaged, and with an IV hanging out his arm.
He tries to tell a joke that comes out as random gibberish, implying he has suffered brain damage. The staff immediately calls the hospital with Jim and Gabe helping escort Deangelo out. As a result, the Scranton branch needs a new manager.
In "", it's revealed Deangelo is in a coma and part of the staff wonder what to get for him. Later, Jo comments that it is unfortunate what happened to Deangelo, commenting that he was a great man. Although, in "Lotto", an unhappy Darryl gets into an argument with Andy over who was supposed to replace Deangelo, with Andy mentioning that Deangelo was helping fund Darryl's college education, which Darryl quit.
The two make reference to Deangelo being dead, but only his brain, revealing that he is either still in a coma or is in a persistent vegetative state. Behind the scenes Ferrell and Carell have previously worked together in Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy, as well as the movie version of Bewitched, and both actors are members of the "Frat Pack", a generation of leading Hollywood comic actors who emerged in the late s and the s, including Jack Black, Ben Stiller, Vince Vaughn, and brothers Owen and Luke Wilson.
Ferrell has worked with other Office cast members as well. Ferrell's appearance makes him the third main Anchorman cast member to appear on the show. Carell being the first, David Koechner, who plays the vulgar traveling salesman Todd Packer being the second, and Ferrell. Reception The Deangelo Vickers character has been met with mixed reviews by critics.
And even though his time is limited, or it at least appears that way, time with Will Ferrell is always time well spent". In Alan Sepinwall's review of "Michael's Last Dundies", he partly blamed the episode's quality on Deangelo, writing that "Some of can be blamed on having to spend so much time giving Will Ferrell stuff to do, as two episodes into his arc, nobody has come up with a good reason for him being here other than that he's Will Ferrell.
I enjoy Ferrell unnecessarily raising his voice as much as the next guy or pulling a Ron Burgundy and reading everything on the cue card , but he's adding very little and taking away from what should be the focus of Carell's final episode". I enjoy his goofy, improvisational style and I admire the way he absolutely commits to his roles, often sacrificing his own dignity for the sake of a joke.
And his chemistry with Carell is undeniable. But I still don't feel like I have a handle on Deangelo Vickers. Compared to the rest of the staff of Dunder Mifflin and I realize this is probably an unfair comparison , he seems downright normal, practically boring. I get that uncomfortable comedy is the hallmark of The Office, but there was a dual level of discomfort between Deangelo being forced into the hosting role and the audience having to witness his spectacular flame-out".
