As the finale of The Office<\/em><\/a> approaches, speculation is growing on where the show’s characters will end up and what the ending will be for what was once the most popular comedy on network TV<\/a>.<\/p>\n

As a major part of the show’s success before leaving in 2011, it seemed like a given that Steve Carell would return to reprise his role as ineffectual manager Michael Scott. However, last week The Office Executive Producer Greg Daniels stated that Carell will not be a part of the show<\/a>, saying that Carell felt it wouldn’t fit the character.<\/p>\n

Now, however, the rumor of Carell’s return is back, despite the denial. TVLine is reporting<\/a> that Daniels’ statement was a ruse, and that Michael Scott will, in fact, be making a cameo in the final episode of The Office<\/em>. The publication’s unnamed sources have stated that his appearance in the episode will be very brief.<\/p>\n

It seems only fitting that Carell should be seen in the series’ finale. His character was one of the most important on the show, a linchpin that held The Office<\/em> together. Despite Will Ferrell coming on as the big-name replacement for Carell in the show’s seventh season, ratings for The Office<\/em> have fallen since the departure of Michael Scott.<\/p>\n
