Dakota Johnson did not like starring on 'The Office.'

"That was honestly the worst time of my life," Johnson admitted. "I love that show so much. And they were like, ‘Do you want to be in the series finale?’ and I was like, ‘Of course,’ thinking that I’d show up for, like, half a day. I was there for two weeks, and I’m barely in the f------- show."

"I don't know in what world that would've worked for me creatively. I have found that when something is successful, even when there's nothing left, they just keep trying to wring out the towel of story. Sometimes, things need to end when they're supposed to end," she explained.
