He's usually so cringe and annoying, but even the moments where they do try to redeem him does nothing for me.

He's supposed to be kind and have good intentions, but has zero self awareness and no maturity. If you're watching the first season, his character's different.

I think you are supposed to have your own emotions and feelings towards a character

I never had a problem with Michael. He was always nice, always kept his job, and had enough sense not to bother me." A few days later, the day before Mike was scheduled to testify in Scranton, Jerry sent the young assistant an invoice.

Mike Scott was sitting in a car with one of his detectives when the telephone rang. It was Dwight, calling to say that he was sorry to bother him at work and would he mind if the detective took the call in the car? The detective was fine with that. He told Mike to take the call at the end of the month. Mike gave him an address, and when he hung up the detective shook his head.

"This guy's gonna be a pain in the ass," he said. "Doesn't sound like he's gonna be a problem, but let's get him up there anyway." Scranton police detective Michael Scott had been working under corporate management for nearly five years. They'd first met at an industry conference where he had sold them some paper.

I don't find him likeable. I just find him sad at best.

No one is actually super likable in The Office. At least not in a "I'd hang out with them in real life" sort of way. They're all basically caricatures.

Michael's a great character, though.

The idea of Michael Scott is that he is someone who lives his life based on mass cultural trends. At the time, mass culture was kind of a jackass.

Could you imagine Michael Scott now? Woke Mike.

The difference between The Office and Parks 'n Rec is that the latter has likeable characters

Parks and Rec is The Office for people who needed the crusts cut off their sandwiches as kids
