After six seasons playing the lovable but clueless Michael Scott on The Office, Steve Carell leaves the popular NBC series April 28. To celebrate Carell’s “Best of” performances, cable channel TBS will air six of the most memorable Michael Scott episodes.

The special “going away party” airs Tuesday, April 26. The featured episodes include:

8pm – “The Injury” – Michael survives a grilling accident.

8:30pm – “Gay Witch Hunt” – Michael deals with a gay employee in his own hilariously cringe-worthy way.

9pm – “Survivor Man” – Michael proves his manliness.

9:30pm – “Dinner Party” – Another hilariously uncomfortable episode when Michael throws a couples-only dinner party.

10pm – “Café Disco” – Michael solves low morale among staff members by creating a special place to escape.

10:30pm – “Double Date” – Michael breaks up with Pam’s mother to make himself available for younger women.
