My vote for the absolute worst character in the office, and a product of Hollywood nepotism (lemmy.world)

Cody Horn is the daughter of Alan Horn, who was the CEO of Disney at the time of her appearance in the office. Daddy's connections got her a starring role on magic Mike, along with a spot on her favorite show the office. She has no acting ability or charisma and was luckily forgotten and vanished from the show after a few episodes. It makes me irrationally mad that nepotism got her a job in a show she had no business being in

She's so talentless, I don't even remember her in the show or what role she played.

Sounds like she fit in pretty good on the office then.

I have just one question: how dare you?

Her father was actually President and CEO of Warner in 2011. He then went on to be Chairman of Disney Studios. He was never CEO of Disney, that was Bob Iger.

there were cups and staplers that had more memorable story arcs

The pens that got delivered while Erin was in charge got a good arc

I've watched The Office two times and I have absolutely no memory of this character. I had to check twice that this wasn't posted in shittymoviedetails

Was she one of the interns?

The writers made her awkwardness work. Just like Cody, her character didn’t fit in or belong there. She was meant to be forgettable, and looked at that way, she “succeeded”.
