Stanley James Hudson is a fictional character from the US television series The Office. He is played by Leslie David Baker. Stanley has no direct counterpart in the UK series. His closest counterpart is Malcolm, as he is given some of Malcolm's lines in the pilot, and is frequently openly critical of Michael Scott throughout the series (as Malcolm was of David Brent).
Stanley Hudson is a sales representative for the fictional paper distributor Dunder Mifflin. Stanley is a serious, hardworking, but a thoroughly grumpy and disgruntled employee so lacking in interest in his surroundings that in one cold open he fails to notice a series of pranks being played on and around him. Stanley dislikes and disrespects his boss Michael Scott. Stanley only thinly attempts to hide his disgust and disrespect for Scott, who affectionately describes Stanley's remarks as clever and sassy. Stanley, who is black, is constantly subjected to Michael's inadvertently offensive remarks based on racial stereotypes. At times, Stanley plays along with Michael's comments for his own benefit. In "Performance Review", Stanley tells Michael that he learned about women "on the ghetto" in order to secure a raise. Stanley has generally good relations with his other colleagues, especially Phyllis Lapin-Vance, with whom he shares a desk cluster and often has lunch. Stanley is a very laid back person, though when angry he has often been described as frightening. On one occasion, coworker Ryan Howard received a harsh scolding from Stanley after he wrongly suspected Ryan of "sniffing around" his daughter. He confronts Ryan Howard again in a deleted scene "Cocktails" when his daughter Melissa sees Ryan again at Poor Richards Pub. On another occasion, Stanley uses a lug wrench to smash Michael's car when Michael exposes Stanley's affair to the office.
