Felix Unger

Felix Arvid-Schelburg, played by Thomas Lennon, is a professional chef, baker and recent divorcee. He moves in with his old college friend Oscar Madison after his wife Ashley kicks him out of the house. Felix is a bit of a neat-freak and is extremely neurotic and fussy, especially when compared to Oscar. In his free time, he does yoga. He also fancies cooking and baking. Felix has an extensive background in the Navy SEALs and has extreme PTSD which is commonly referenced throughout the show. Throughout the series, he often gets mistaken to be gay by several characters. Him and Ashley were good friends with Micheal Scott and Holly when both couples were still together.
