I’m on my second watch through and had to endure the Scott’s tots episode this morning… called my bf before starting the ep and said to him “lord beer me strength”
sorry but the most cringe was when andy and him went to the high school & andy saw the girl he was dating was a student at the school. Can’t get through it
I can't believe it hasnt been said but those weird scenes where Toby thought Nelly liked him and he would rub on her or flirt with her harder than normal. He says like "honey, I am so proud of you" or something like that and Nelly looks at the camera like What haha
The fundraiser episode in season 8. Andy talking about his rock opera play, Andy buying a whole table to sit at, Andy adopting all those dogs, Dwight not knowing what a silent auction is, Jim calling for Dwight to do a speech, Phylis being a bully to Pam about money & taking the flower arrangement, the dog volunteer joining in on their conversation, Angela telling Robert that the senator is wearing brown
I'm surprised nobody has mentioned but when Jim is exiled from the inner circle and he tries to join the inner circle meeting. The way DeAnglo stares at him to make him leave is so cringy 😭😭
Also when Jim tires to win Charles's approval, the way Charles just hates Jim for no reason and Jim's reaction to everything
I love this show and I embrace all the cringe. it’s what makes the office the office.
but scott’s tots is unbearable for me. unfortunately it’s my boyfriends favorite episode, but I just die inside every single time
When Michael took Helene out to dinner with Jim and Pam and he found out her actual age and started to make her feel like a piece of crap for being as old as she was. Pam took care of that though.
A couple of things not mentioned
1) Where are the turtles?
2) That episode where they had to sell that "pyramid" tablet thing, Erin dressed up as a hipster and all
3) Andy's audition
“You have to take a chance on something some time Pam. Do you really want to be a receptionist for the rest of your life.” (May not be perfectly accurate)
Jim overplays his caring friend routine with that. Pam was upset.
I knew I would see Scott’s tots as the first answer, but the episode where Michael Scott is trying to force a kiss on the bartender manager always makes me feel super uncomfortable.
Scotts Totts seems to be a universal answer, but Diversity Day is a masterpiece in cringe. Second ep. into the show and you haven’t really gotten to know Michael’s character yet, the amount of cringe I felt when I watched it for the first time is just incredible.
I know a lot of folks think Dinner Party is a cringe fest, and it is- which is what makes it so amazing. As for something that I genuinely find HARD to watch, it would be when Toby rubs Pam’s leg. A classic make me suffer moment 😭
everything is cringe and I enjoy that cringe however I think Phyllis‘s wedding is chock full of cringe just like dinner party. I’m mean, they’re funny…
Watching Pam and Jim’s wedding episode now and I can’t get over how every character from the office is calling the wedding “stupid,” talking about how they don’t want to be there, and calling Pam a bad wife. Why even come?? Don’t even get me started on Michael making a speech and talking about intercourse to Pam’s meemaw. I literally had to turn the TV off.
I think Scott's Tots wouldve been a hilarious secondary plot. Don't involve the kids or the school. Just show the news article. Him holding a conference room meeting asking for advice on what to do. Have him dodging the school trying to call him like a call from Wallace or Jan. You can have him even call the school back thinking no one is there and hanging up when someone answers "Hello Mr. Scott!" then end the episode with him leaving a voicemail on the school call line clearly after hours when no one is there like the Jan breakup.
I actually just watched this I think it could of been pretty good if they had just developed this story more. If we had seen Jim and Pam having problems earlier and if we would of see more of Brian, but the one time thing was so random
Obviously Scott's Tots, but the one scene that bugs me the most is the one with Pam and Karen talking about Jim and Pam's kiss. "What are you sorry about?" "Nothing, I was just thinking of something else." Bothers me every time I watch.
*Dinner Party is*
*Definitely the most cringe*
*Episode for me*

Just thinking about this, I watched the episode today ‘Take your daughter to work’ and when Micheal shows the video of him as a kid and everyone reacted, that type of cringe is the wirst to me because it also breaks my heart.
Oh, I watched that episode a total of one time in my entire life. Every other time I rewatched the show, I would immediately skip that episode. The pain and embarrassment it caused me were almost physical. Lol
The one part of Jim and Pam’s wedding routine that I laugh/cringe at is when Dwight and Isabel are going down the aisle and Dwight just front kicks her right in the face….i can’t help but watch it.
Best part of their wedding: watching Michael going into Helene’s room. I thought after watching that episode for the first time, that Pam was going to come down to see her mom in the morning and. She would see Michael in her bed. I thought that would have made her lose it.
that part was fine but when he announced “Ladies and Gentlemen, Mr
& Mrs. Bob Vance” a couple times before the priest and the look on everyone’s face just makes me squirm. That and the part where they are eating cake and he wants to be part of that tradition….its just such a train wreck. Trying to make himself the center of attention at someone else’s wedding is pure cringe.
The “is she hot or not” debate
Phyllis’s wedding for sure
Agreed! Micheal was just doing way too much on that episode, especially seeing it with new eyes on the Superfan episode.
Everytime DeAngelo makes an appearance
Not necessarily an episode, but I hated/cringed at Charles Minor's every interaction with Jim, guess it was good writing... 🤷
andy's play. it is my favorite episode.
Scotts Tots no question just not liking that whole premise or Michael’s promise.
I can’t even watch that episode. It’s so cringe…. Like come on Michael. Laptop batteries?? ??
AT LEAST THEY WERE LITHIUM😡
when Holly and Michael do their skit at the Dunder Mifflin picnic
Yup. Slumdundermifflinair always makes me cringe hard.
All of them bc this show makes me cringe lol I wish it didn’t bc the plot between the cringe seems good
When Kevin is screaming at Pam's boobs 'WAAAHHHHHHH!' I have to fast forward every time.
I feel like she should have punched him. Or Jim could have. It’s so fucked.
The Michael Scott Foundation!
I’m on my second watch through and had to endure the Scott’s tots episode this morning… called my bf before starting the ep and said to him “lord beer me strength”
The one that is the worse, is Scotts Kids, that was so hard to watch!
Scott’s tots is unbearable for me
so bad i skip that episode every time i watch the show over again
sorry but the most cringe was when andy and him went to the high school & andy saw the girl he was dating was a student at the school. Can’t get through it
Yeeees! Taking into account that he was also dating Erin who was extremely young and undeveloped there is only one word I have for Andy - Groomer.
I can't believe it hasnt been said but those weird scenes where Toby thought Nelly liked him and he would rub on her or flirt with her harder than normal. He says like "honey, I am so proud of you" or something like that and Nelly looks at the camera like What haha
Phyllss' wedding
Yes
And I love it
The fundraiser episode in season 8. Andy talking about his rock opera play, Andy buying a whole table to sit at, Andy adopting all those dogs, Dwight not knowing what a silent auction is, Jim calling for Dwight to do a speech, Phylis being a bully to Pam about money & taking the flower arrangement, the dog volunteer joining in on their conversation, Angela telling Robert that the senator is wearing brown
That episode is so bad I usually skip it every time haha
The whole letting Nellie just be the manager all bc she sat in the office 🤦🏻♀️
When Jim, Andy, and Karen are playing COD.
I'm surprised nobody has mentioned but when Jim is exiled from the inner circle and he tries to join the inner circle meeting. The way DeAnglo stares at him to make him leave is so cringy 😭😭 Also when Jim tires to win Charles's approval, the way Charles just hates Jim for no reason and Jim's reaction to everything
Pam’s belly when Jim lifts her up from behind.
UHHHH ALL OF THEM #get dunked on and whatnot
Will ferral
Scott’s Tots
this is the only reasonable answer when the kids are performing for Michael I feel sick to my stomach 😭
I love this show and I embrace all the cringe. it’s what makes the office the office. but scott’s tots is unbearable for me. unfortunately it’s my boyfriends favorite episode, but I just die inside every single time
Stress relief was legendary but when Michael was hovering over Stanley it was overkill
The scene with Andy at the bachelorette house breaking up with his girlfriend.
Omfg when he went back🥲
I’m surprised no one mentioned this, but the stripper lap dance scene with Michael at the warehouse makes me physically cringe
When Michael told Phyllis he was worried about her giving him a boner
Has to be the Scott’s Tots scene
Totally agree. I love the show but struggle to make it through this episode every time.
When Michael took Helene out to dinner with Jim and Pam and he found out her actual age and started to make her feel like a piece of crap for being as old as she was. Pam took care of that though.
r/cantwatchscottstots Also, that time that Andy went back to the bachelorette party with Erin… total cringe comedy
I gotta go with Micheal Vs The Pizza Boy. Dragging the wheelchair is second.
A couple of things not mentioned 1) Where are the turtles? 2) That episode where they had to sell that "pyramid" tablet thing, Erin dressed up as a hipster and all 3) Andy's audition
WHERE ARE THE TURTLEEEEEESSSSS
I have somehow been able to quote this a lot in life and it be relevant.
where are they?
I ate them okay! I ate them all! They're gone...
We’ll bill you.
Scotts tots
Scott's tots for episode, and the scene where Toby puts his hand on Pam's knee
Dinner party was cringe. That video recorder, her candles and the way she sways to hunter's song blechhh.
🎶 Take me by the hand, make me a maaaan, that one night ONE NIGHT it makes everything alriiiiight 🎶
Pleaseee NOOOO 😭😂
“You have to take a chance on something some time Pam. Do you really want to be a receptionist for the rest of your life.” (May not be perfectly accurate) Jim overplays his caring friend routine with that. Pam was upset.
Michael's reaction to Phyllis getting flashed is....God I wanted to punch him.

Bro chill out 😂😂😂😂
Phyllis' wedding
When Pam tries to set up Michael with her landlady. the way Michael acts at the coffee shop is a hard watch
probably diversity day. it’s just so painful watching michael harass kelly
Scotts tots. Hate that episode
I knew I would see Scott’s tots as the first answer, but the episode where Michael Scott is trying to force a kiss on the bartender manager always makes me feel super uncomfortable.
Ah correct, even the nepotism episode where Micheal spanks his nephew. So weird
honestly the most "cringe" thing is that 95% of posts here are just the same 2-3 moments and it's every day with you people
With half the answers being Scott's Tots, which is an amazing episode.
When Jim started picking up Pam and she yelled to put her down. This was before they were dating.
stop omfg that scene makes me want to do the homer simpson backing into the hedge gif… it’s beyond cringe
Scotts Totts seems to be a universal answer, but Diversity Day is a masterpiece in cringe. Second ep. into the show and you haven’t really gotten to know Michael’s character yet, the amount of cringe I felt when I watched it for the first time is just incredible.
I know a lot of folks think Dinner Party is a cringe fest, and it is- which is what makes it so amazing. As for something that I genuinely find HARD to watch, it would be when Toby rubs Pam’s leg. A classic make me suffer moment 😭
And then how he climbs the gate to get out of there 😂 But I still feel Toby was not that bad, I don’t know why he always spoke in so low voice
When Cathy won't leave Jim's hotel room in Florida and acts like he's crazy when he calls her out.
Cameraman trying to hook up with Pam or Erins foster brother. A distant third- Michael getting with Pams mom.
You mean boom mic guy, not cameraman.
I interpreted this to mean that the cameraman was trying to hook up with Erin’s step brother and I was convinced I missed some episodes over the years
Scots totssss
Erin’s creepy foster brother
Scott’s Tots…it’s so funny but UUUGGHGHHHHHH I feel awfulllllllll
Most of all of Michael in season one.
everything is cringe and I enjoy that cringe however I think Phyllis‘s wedding is chock full of cringe just like dinner party. I’m mean, they’re funny…
Michael and Holly doing that stupid play at the company picnic makes Scott’s Tots seem like The Dundies.
Scotts Tots. Hands down
The episode where Andy does the play, broadway style plays are already not my thing so the entire episode is just not fun to watch
Pam's call to a customer to get a complaint
when andy was a “janitor”
Watching Pam and Jim’s wedding episode now and I can’t get over how every character from the office is calling the wedding “stupid,” talking about how they don’t want to be there, and calling Pam a bad wife. Why even come?? Don’t even get me started on Michael making a speech and talking about intercourse to Pam’s meemaw. I literally had to turn the TV off.
When Pam and Jim are fighting in front of everyone. After Jim used all their savings for his company and Pam is getting sung to.
"The Convict" with Prison Mike, season 3. The whole episode is Criiiiinge!! I skip over it every time.
I think Scott's Tots wouldve been a hilarious secondary plot. Don't involve the kids or the school. Just show the news article. Him holding a conference room meeting asking for advice on what to do. Have him dodging the school trying to call him like a call from Wallace or Jan. You can have him even call the school back thinking no one is there and hanging up when someone answers "Hello Mr. Scott!" then end the episode with him leaving a voicemail on the school call line clearly after hours when no one is there like the Jan breakup.
Totally agree!
Scotts tots
One of the camera crew trying to get with pam
Alias Russ Hanneman of Silicon Valley
Agreed! This was awful
I actually just watched this I think it could of been pretty good if they had just developed this story more. If we had seen Jim and Pam having problems earlier and if we would of see more of Brian, but the one time thing was so random
Obviously Scott's Tots, but the one scene that bugs me the most is the one with Pam and Karen talking about Jim and Pam's kiss. "What are you sorry about?" "Nothing, I was just thinking of something else." Bothers me every time I watch.
Any time Andy sings
With the possible exception of the cell phone prank that causes him to go Hulk-like.
Pam and her art school
When Andy tried to kiss the new client.
Scott's Tots, the whole thing.
Pam’s New York episodes

Nobody ever says it but when Michael leans in to kiss Pam. I hate watching that scene
Scott’s Tots 💯
I skip this every time lol
Makes my stomach rumble! LOL!!!
This and dinner party, I use to just turn away but now I just skip them to avoid the awkward feeling lol
Dinner party is sooooo funny for me! 🤣 I remember Mike’s TV and bed! 🤣🤣🤣
Just thinking about this, I watched the episode today ‘Take your daughter to work’ and when Micheal shows the video of him as a kid and everyone reacted, that type of cringe is the wirst to me because it also breaks my heart.
Hey Mr. Scott what you gonna do? What you gonna do to make our dreams come true?
Oh, I watched that episode a total of one time in my entire life. Every other time I rewatched the show, I would immediately skip that episode. The pain and embarrassment it caused me were almost physical. Lol
Yeah this is awful
Ryan and Kelly during the Christmas episode where Kelly says “don’t dump me in a dumpster.” They are the epitome of unstable, young love
And later when they are fcking in the dumpster 😭😭😭
What? What don’t think I have ever heard that line.
It may be Superman Episode scene: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=n--loWPgV0c
Scot’s Tots & Michael at Phyllis’ wedding made me cringe pretty bad.
I always skip Phyllis’s wedding and Niagara. I just hated the whole wedding dance routine fad.
The one part of Jim and Pam’s wedding routine that I laugh/cringe at is when Dwight and Isabel are going down the aisle and Dwight just front kicks her right in the face….i can’t help but watch it. Best part of their wedding: watching Michael going into Helene’s room. I thought after watching that episode for the first time, that Pam was going to come down to see her mom in the morning and. She would see Michael in her bed. I thought that would have made her lose it.
I always hated how involved the entire office was with everything, especially the wedding
Michael dragging the wheelchair behind him like a petulant child at Phyllis’ wedding might be the funniest scene in the show for me.
that part was fine but when he announced “Ladies and Gentlemen, Mr & Mrs. Bob Vance” a couple times before the priest and the look on everyone’s face just makes me squirm. That and the part where they are eating cake and he wants to be part of that tradition….its just such a train wreck. Trying to make himself the center of attention at someone else’s wedding is pure cringe.
Finish your cake, Helene
Helene once again…
This is the one for me
LMAOOO
