Even The Biggest Office Fan Can't Name All Of These Characters

For 9 seasons The Office made us feel better about the mundane lives with live day to day. With activities such as beach day, office Olympics, women's appreciation, and more parties than we could ever list, the show gave us hope that the 9-5 life style could be boring and amusing all at the same time (and could potentially come with a lot of cake). Sadly most of us don't report back to a joke telling, costume wearing, silly-man boss, but we still find joy in watching our Scranton branch employees live their best life with boss Michael Scott.

If you were one of the millions who tuned in every week to watch the madness that is Dunder Mifflin's Scranton branch unfold then this quiz might just be for you! Do not get us wrong, if you half heatedly watched this series there is no way you can pass it. This quiz was designed for the true Dunder Mifflinites out there. In the quiz that follow's we will show you pictures of not only regular office members, but some so obscure even the biggest fans will have a hard time placing them with their correct names. Time to see if you are as big a fan as you think...we're thinking you're not ;)

Question 1

Name this character

The man in the picture you see here, is a bad to the bone, thieving, criminal. He has spent a lot of time in and out of prison, getting locked up for all kinds of things. He is accustomed to eating gruel and nothing but gruel. He is painfully afraid of the dementors which guard the prison's hes been kept in. Don't stare at his photo too long he doesn't like it, and he is not someone you want to piss off.

Question 2

Name this character

We are shooting you an easy one here to help you warm up. This man is in every season, and is probably the most hated of the series...well most hated by boss Michael Scott anyways. He has a low, boring voice, and a plain face. He is the head of our branches HR department, and is a divorced father of 1. If you get this wrong you should probably just stop here. What is the name of this easy to hate man?

Question 3

Name this character

This guy is a season 9 addition to the show, hired as a replacement for our O.G customer service rep, Kelly Kapoor. We saw him most frequently in the annex along side his companion Clark. This character also has a brief love story with one of our receptionists. He is one of the few to ever join the team past season 1 and remain, he is still currently working for Dunder Mifflin as far as we know. Hint: His nickname was "Plop"

Question 4

Name this character

This lady appears in only 3 episodes. Even though she was originally hired to help prove that the office's current management was not sexist, she seems to do the opposite. With no experience in an "executive assistant" position, she seems unqualified from the very beginning. It soon becomes clear that the reason she was brought on was less about the office being inclusive to women, and more about them being misogynists who hired her only for her looks. I would like it noted that this did NOT happen while Michael was in charge.

Question 5

Name this character

We all know one of these guys. He plays the long time fiance to our receptionist, turned sales women, turned office administrator. He is very selfish, and offers no support to his fiance, realizing only after he gets dumped that maybe he was the problem. UGH! Hate this kind of guy. We saw him first in season 1, and actually see him throughout the series all the way up to season 9. Can you remember the name of this warehouse dude?

Question 6

Name this character

This gentleman was not actually affiliated with Dunder Mifflin at all originally, but he worked in the same industrial park, leading him to meet the love of his life, which is when he married into our paper family. The name if this character's game is: refrigeration. He is the owner and operator of the local fridge company, and he takes great pride in this fact. He is something of a celebrity in Scranton Pennsylvanian. Can you remember what this mans name is?

Question 7

Name this character

Shown and talked about in only 1 episode, this character is the husband of one of our all time favorite ladies. Even though it is true that he is mistreated by her and probably deserves better, we still end up on her side of things when the marriage doesn't work out. Sorry bro, but she's family. To find this character we don't have to go looking through too many seasons since he is only featured in the last. What was his name?

Question 8

Name this character

Catherine Tate is the actress who plays this women. Her character, who at first is irksome, and unpleasant to watch, eventually becomes a tad bit more lovable, and gets a few good laughs out of us. By no means does she ever become a beloved character, but still she edges her self away from being very much hated by everyone, to slightly enjoyable and only hated by a few. Can you look back and remember the name of the English accented character?

Question 9

Name this character

This women has a small yet sad role in our series. She is the wife of a regular office member, who is seen tagging along to events with her husband as his plus one. Later in the series we find out she has been cheated on quite a bit by her husband, and we actually end up feeling pretty bad for her. While her husband remains a loved and respected character (even after the cheating scandal) she unfortunately gets lost and forgotten.

Question 10

Name this character

Here we go, another easy one for the cheap seats in the back. This garbage bag of a women is seen in almost every episode. We have probably seen more of this character than any other (speaking about body parts, and not actual screen time here). She is a mother of 2, and works in the companies supplier relations department. We learn at some point in the series that her "supplier relations" may not all be strictly business. What is her name?

Question 11

Name this character

The brilliant Rashida Jones portrays this character. She is first seen in season 3, and last seen during a cameo appearance in season 8. This character was an original Stamford branch employee who got absorbed by Scranton during the merger of the 2 branches. She was also a love interest for one of our leading men. She had less patience for the management style of Michael than the others, and eventually became manager of her own branch. Can you remember her name?

Question 12

Name this character

"HOW DARE YOU STAND WHERE HE STOOD?" are the first words that come to mind when looking at a picture of this man. He was the original replacement for Michael, but was so obviously not up for the task of filling those ginormous shoes. While he gets some credit for his basketball skills, and of course his ability to juggle without balls, he is largely disliked due to the fact that he couldn't live up to his predecessor. What was his name?

Question 13

Name this character

This guy has to be the character with the most development throughout the entire series. He is first introduced as a temp, he is then quickly promoted to a corporate position, but then falls from grace after being arrested for fraud. All was not lost for this character thanks to Michael Scoot, who finds him working at a local bowling alley and decides to give him another chance. He then again begins to mess things up for himself and others in the office. Some people just never learn...

Question 14

Name this character

How are you feeling so far? Not bad right? Well things are starting to heat up a bit, so stay with us. Here you see a women who appeared only in season 8, and does not even have a full name. She is rich and beautiful, so already she should stand out from the rest at least a bit. She is an avid runner, and became very close to being engaged to one of our leading men. Can you remember her name?

Question 15

Name this character

Okay that last one was tough, so here's an easy one while you breathe a bit...Here we are looking at 1 of 3 of our branches accountants. While he is not the brightest of the bunch, he does hold the record for the amount of M&M's one can fit in their mouth. He is self classified as a: charm type person, and believes that with the right toupee he looks like Ashton Kutcher. Can you remember the name if this numbers guy?

Question 16

Name this character

This man is a foul speaking, weirdo. He is the best friend of one of our leading men. While we do not get to see the encounter where our leading man meets this strange character, we are told that they met in a shoe store while the character in question was asking the sales women for shoe's that would allow him to run fast without leaving tracks, so he could not be followed. CREEPY! Careful here, can you remember what his name was?

Question 17

Name this character

Here we see the assistant of the horrible Jan Levinson. He appears only in season 3, but we hear his name passed around several times throughout the series. His work as an assistant is only really to pay his bills, his true passion is music. A very talented guy he is. Here are the lyrics to one of his hit songs to help you : "You took me by the hand, you made me a man. That one night, you made everything all right. That one night, you made everything all right."

Question 18

Name this character

Another Stamford branch employee who came on to the team during the merger. He did not last as long as some of the others. During his first and only episode as part of the Scranton branch, we witness a very cringe worthy event where he becomes extremely offended and quits on the spot. This event proving once again that the management styles of Michael Scott are not for everyone. Thinking hard can you remember the name of this thin skinned character?

Question 19

Name this character

This character is featured in only 1 episode. We see him Captaining the boat in which the "booze cruise" takes place on. An unforgettable episode, not only because Roy finally decides (after 5 years being engaged) that he WOULD actually like to marry his fiance pam, but also because we get to watch Michael demonstrate what it means the be the boss of dance. Looking back at this season 2 episode, can you remember the name of the man who captained the boat?

Question 20

Name this character

Another ex-girl friend of one of our regular cast members, she was played by the super famous Amy Adams. Amy's character is seen briefly in both season 1 and 2. Due to the fact that season 1 was very short, and only had 6 episodes, any real fan should be able to easily spot and name her. Going all the way back to season 1, can you remember the name of this once high school cheerleader, now purse sales lady's name?

Question 21

Name this character

Say what you will about Michael Scott, but he was without a doubt 10 times the manager this man ever was. The character in question here was the manager of the Stamford branch. He used his high standing position with Dunder Mifflin to secure him a better job offer with a competing company. THE NERVE! This inevitably leads to the closing of Stamford, and the merger of their branch to the Scranton branch. What was this jerk's name?

Question 22

Name this character

You would think since the first time we see this man he is at Hay Place, that he would be a fun, lovable guy... this is not the case. A cheating no good scoundrel would be a more appropriate description. He not only marries one of our O.G character's, but also cheats on her with another one of them! As disgusting as you and I may find him, it seems that the people of Scranton have a soft spot for this guy.

Question 23

Name this character

This little lady was not always a member of the office crew, but she was one of the few who joins in half way through and becomes an instant favorite. She was impossible not to love even if some tried at first. Innocent, caring, and a little bit lost this character holds a warm spot in all of our hearts. She did not only take on the role as receptionist when we needed one, but she also becomes something of a first child to Michael.

Question 24

Name this character

She is crabby, and miserable. She is in every episode of the 9 seasons, and I think you could probably count the time's she smiled on 1 hand. The only things we know for sure that she enjoys are cats, posters of babies dressed up as adults, and Dwight. Somehow even though she does some truly unkind things to other members of the office, she remains family. Squinting very hard, since she is the tiniest of them all, can you recall her name?

Question 25

Name this character

This man is the Professor Umbridge of the office. If you don't get the reference i'm sorry, but honestly that's your fault for living under a rock. He is part of the corporate team of Dunder Mifflin, and takes a way too hands on approach when dealing with the Scranton branch. "Who does this guy think he is?" is something we found ourselves asking almost every time he was on the screen. Can you remember the name of this character, who was portrayed by the handsome Idris Elba?

Question 26

Name this character

Here we have the first ever love interest of Michael Scott. She was the real estate agent who sold him his condo, and stole his heart. Sadly in the end she was not women enough for our man Michael...o.k that is not strictly true, Michael actually Photo shopped himself over her ex-husband in a family photo with their children, but still she was never going to be the one for him. Fun fact: The actress who play's this character is actually Michael Scott's wife in real life!

Question 27

Name this character

Another unlikable character who comes on after the departure of Michael Scott in season 7. This character is seen during seasons 7 and 8, and was not well received at all by fans during either. I don't know if we just love Michael that much, or if they intentionally replaced him with a**holes, but either way chalk this guy up on the list of people id never want as a boss. Can you remember what this smooth nonsense talking guy's name was?

Question 28

Name this character

Now here is a unique example of someone who worked for Dunder Mifflin's corporate division, and remained a loved character throughout his time on the show. Not only does he have a kind, handsome face, but his personality was relate-able, and he always showed a level of respect for Michael most other didn't. On the occasion that he would become frustrated with Michael and his unorthodox ways, he would always redeem himself by apologizing. What was this gorgeous man's name?

Question 29

Name this character

O.k you made it this far, so here is a sort of reward in the sense that this is hands down the easiest question out of the bunch. It seems wrong to create this type of quiz and not have him featured in it. So here we have it, the regional manager of Dunder Mifflin's Scranton branch. A 15+ year employee who show's us what dedication really is. A husband, a father, a friend, and a boss. What is the name of this legend?

Question 30

Name this character

This business women is the manager of a fun looking bar/arcade named Sid & Dexter. We first see her as some what of a hard-ass as she tells off Michael for his unruly behavior at her bar, but then later realize she may actually have feelings for our beloved branch manager. If you are like me than you are extremely protective of Michael and felt almost immediately after meeting her that he could, and should do better. What was the name of this character?

Question 31

Name this character

Originally known as "the new Dwight" this characters nickname was changed to "fart" by Andy Bernard, regional manager at the time. This 22 year old was hired to work for the branch's customer service department, and remains an employee there to this day. He only appears in season 9, but once introduced he stays with us until the finale. Can you remember what this characters name was? Hint: This character states in season 9 that he has "huge inner ears"

Question 32

Name this character

Here she is, our shining little angel. This beauty is prof that not everyone who works in HR is doomed to be a fun sucking annoyance. This women is introduced to us in season 4 and she remained a recurring character through season 5. She then heart-breakingly leaves us for another branch after corporate learns of her romance with Michael. She however is brought back in season 7 and we could not have been happier. What is the name of this blond bomb shell?

Question 33

Name this character

Another easy one for you guys. In this picture we have another one of the office's accountants. He is extremely brught, and very pompous. He by far has the lowest opinion of Michael out of the entire staff. This character is put through some of the cringiest moments in the series history, and that is really saying something. Being the office's only Hispanic, and outwardly gay employee, he never really stood a chance. Can you remember what his name is?

Question 34

Name this character

As gross to listen to as he would be to touch. This creepy ghost like character joined the ranks in season 6. He was not an employee of Dunder Mifflin, but actually a member of the Sabre company who bought out Dunder Mifflin. He is extremely pale, and skinny, 2 facts which his co-workers never let him forget. It is not all hate for this character however since we do see him get a lengthy love interest. What was his name?

Question 35

Name this character

A mystery to us all, even if you are sure of his name. The final installment of today's quiz is focused around this bearded outcast. We first meet him in season 2 and get to see him sporadically throughout the series up until the final season. It seems every time he makes it to the screen, or even when is he merely mentioned, he gets a laugh out of fans. Going through the cast list one final time, can you remember this characters name?
