If You like The Office, then check out these shows ASAP as possible
If you are still rewatching the Office, take a look at these similar shows.
Are you still rewatching The Office? It's okay, no shame in that. I know I still do, even after watching similar or different shows, at some point I end up back with The Office. I figured there would be a lot of people who still watch The Office, or used to, until Netflix took it down. In this article, I'd like to give some shows that you're sure to love if you love The Office. Without further ado, let's go with the first one.
Parks and Recreation
I think this one is a must watch for all Office fans. It is even written by the same screenwriters as The Office, Michael Schur and Greg Daniels. The show is about the lives of the people working in Pawnee's Parks and Recreation department. It has a similar mockumentary filming style as The Office, talking heads and absurd comedy. I honestly love the show. Leslie is an amazing characted, that is extremely well portrayed by Amy Poehler. Just like The Office, I think it starts off quite slow, and you may lose interest if you stop watching before Season 3. You can honestly just start watching there, and then go back when you get more into the show. The writers themselves even said that this show is meant to fix some of the mistakes they with The Office, so I think it's definitely worth watching.
How I Met Your Mother
Another great show that I am actually currently rewatching. More of a similar style to Friends than The Office, but I can guarantee that you will love this show if you like The Office. It can be a bit goofier, and not that realistic, but still very entertaining. It revolves around 5 friends living in New York, and looking for their soulmates. It is honestly cute, funny and Barney Stinson is awesome. ;)
Modern Family
I really love this show. It is funny, has an interesting storyline, the shots are just great, and it has 11 seasons! It follows three families with different lifestyle, that have to learn to spend time and live together. I don't think there is much to say about the show, since it's about following families while they get themselves into hilarious situations, but the show is really funny. You are bound to have a good time watching Modern Family.
Brooklyn Nine-Nine
Another great show on the list. Brooklyn Nine-Nine is about a police department in Brooklyn. The show is made in a detective style, so you mostly get a case for each episode. If you like something like Sherlock Holmes or Fringe, you would love Brooklyn Nine-Nine. It's just way funnier that those two. Jake Peralta is so funny, and I also really like Captain Holt, honestly one of the most interesting characters on TV.
Community
This show is extremely underrated and in my opinion doesn't have the popularity it deserves. That might not be true of course, but it's just my opinion. Now, Community is a bit of a different shows. It has a different kind of humor, that I really like, the actors are fantastic. It runs for 6 seasons, and the last seasons are a bit of a hit and miss, but nonetheless the whole show is worth watching. The story follows different students at Greendale Community College. Definitely check it out.
Honorable Mentions
Now if you've seen all of these shows, no worries there are more. Or maybe just the above mentioned ones are not your cup of tea. I got you. I will list out some other shows that are not necessarily in the same style, but I have personally enjoyed and recommended to people.
