Characters that rarely interact


I noticed that despite Jim and Angela being major characters who have rivalries with the other’s love interest, they rarely speak to each other throughout the entire series. They mention each other a lot but don’t interact much. Jim asks her to begin the Deserted Island game in The Fire and he prompts her to choose a book to bring on the deserted island. That is their only conversation and it was a fairly early episode.

Any others that you’ve noticed?

How about Meredith and just about anybody . I really can’t stand her.

She talked to Jim and Michael quite a bit. Otherwise, yeah, you have Meredith snapping at people or people snapping at Meredith with few one-on-one conversations.

Creed and Stanley.

That's a good one. Creed had at least one weird/creepy interaction with almost every major character otherwise.

Ryan and Andy. Which is weird because they are both main characters. Also, they both interacted with the same people. They both interacted with Michael, Dwight, Jim, Pam, Kevin, Kelly, and Erin, yet they rarely interacted with each other. Also, in the Season 3 episode The Return, Andy calls Ryan "Big Turkey" but we don't know why and never hear it again. I wish the writers did more with that.

That’s a good one. They also ended up on David Wallace’s badside in some way.
