Parks and Recreation 

Now, this show takes its style like that of The Office. Parks and Recreation is a mockumentary-styled workplace comedy created by Greg Daniels and Michael Schur.

Jones. The series tells the story of the promiscuous and hedonistic jingle writer, Charlie Harper (Charlie Sheen), his opposite and a rather uptight brother, Alan Harper (Jon Cryer), and Alan’s troublesome son, Jake Haper (Angus T. Jones).

Charlie’s free-wheeling life comes to an abrupt halt when Alan and Jake move into his beachfront Malibu house. Two and Half Men was a solid one for straight eight seasons (some people believe that the last four seasons isn’t as solid due to change of the cast; apparently Charlie left). 

Modern Family 

Another mockumentary-style show, created by Christopher Lloyd and Steven Levitan for ABC. It ran for eleven seasons with 250 episodes.  The show follows the lives of Jay Pritchett and his family, all of whom live in suburban Los Angeles.

The family can be seen as three different families, all of whom are related, each different in composition and personality than the other. The comedy show shows how these related families face trials and tribulations in their daily lives. The show also addressed the changing social norms and culture throughout the 2010s, thanks to its excellent and ensemble casts.  

Brooklyn Nine-Nine

Brooklyn Nine-Nine tells the story of a young but talented N.Y.P.D detective in Brooklyn’s 99th Precinct, Jake Peralta, who often gets into conflict with his new boss Captain Raymond Holt, a serious and no-nonsense officer, and other detectives. 

The show is an American police comedy series, my Dan Goor and Micheal Schur. It started airing in 2013 and has since run for six seasons with the seventh season currently on. Since it’s a police-themed comedy show, viewers get the chance to see some actions, which isn’t the case with The Office.  

New Girl 

A sitcom you could watch to take your mind off all the heavy TV viewing, thanks to its simpleness. New Girl tells the story of an offbeat teacher, Jess (Zooey Deschanel), who just had her heart broken by her ex.

After the breakup, she moves into an apartment in Los Angeles with three men, Nick (Jake Johnson), Winston (Lamorne Morris), and Schmidt (Max Greenfield). All of whom are in their early thirties. How they don’t have anything in common at first, and hoe they soon become a tight crew, as they help. Each other figure out life, relationships, and careers together. 

When The Office ended in 2013, it was hard on some die-hard fans. Certainly, they’d miss their favorite show and the Dunder Mifflin crew. However, there are other great shows in its category that could live up to expectations; these shows can even hook you up instantly. Hence, we took our time to give you the best of them, above.
