I'll never begrudge people on shows wanting to continue, since it means the creatives and crew continue to get consistent work, but by the same token The Office was already noticeably declining by the time Carell left, and it never got better. Creatively, it could have ended when Jim proposed, probably should have ended when Jim and Pam got married, and definitely should have ended when Michael left. The rest is just flailing, flanderization and coasting.
But then we would have never gotten Robert California, and that would have been a real shame.
I had to look up who that even was. That's how forgettable everything past season 7 is.
