        I don’t know if Michael is a villain. He is dumb. But I don’t know if his motivation is malice. And Stanley just cheated on his wife. The others I can agree with. However, that doesn’t mean ALL were evil. Meredith and Phyllis weren’t evil.

          Michael wasn’t malicious, just so incompetent and oblivious to it that he was a villain. Stanley was grumpy and lazy which is what made him work against the others to thwart them. That also makes him a villain in my book

            Not a pure villain IMO, the show certainly tries to make him lovable/relatable in some ways. See his UK equivalent for someone who is.
