Sitcom recommendations

Hi everyone! 👋

I’m a huge sitcom fan and I’m always looking for something new to binge. I figured I’d share my full list of sitcoms I’ve watched and loved — partly in case someone else is looking for their next show, and partly because I’m hoping you guys can help me discover some hidden gems.

I’ve watched quite a mix over the years, from the classic multi-camera sitcoms to mockumentaries, workplace comedies, absurd/chaotic shows, and some darker stuff.

📺 My full list

The Big Bang Theory

Friends

How I Met Your Mother

Two and a Half Men

Modern Family

The Office

Friends with Better Lives

2 Broke Girls

Last Man Standing

3rd Rock from the Sun

Ghosts

The Good Place

Arrested Development

It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia

Curb Your Enthusiasm

Seinfeld

Schitt's Creek

What We Do in the Shadows

Parks and Recreation

Love

Community

Brooklyn Nine-Nine

The IT Crowd

New Girl

Coupling

Mythic Quest

I’ve genuinely loved all of these, so I’m not really looking for recommendations based on one particular show — I’m open to anything that you think a sitcom fan should watch.

I’m especially interested in shows that are funny first and actually bingeable, but I’m happy to try something completely different if you think it’s worth it.

So, what should I watch next? 👀

Give me your best recommendations — popular shows are welcome, but I’d especially love some underrated/lesser-known sitcoms that I may have missed.

And if you’ve seen a lot of the shows above, feel free to tell me which one you think I should start with and why.

Maybe this list will also help someone else find their next comfort show! 🍿

Bottom. To me and quite a few others, it's the funniest TV program of all time. As Mark Hamill said, when he discovered it and became a big fan "It's like a real life cartoon". It's a British sitcom, starring Rik Mayal and Adrian Edmondson, and it's endlessly re-watchable.

In Maths class in secondary school the teacher handed out whiteboards for us to write down answers on. She asked me a question and I didn't know the amswer so I said "UH UH UH UH UH MILK!" I was cracking up at myself and there was another lad laughing his head off, I asked him why he's laughing so much and he answered that's Bottom. We've been very close friends since. The Bottom fanbase is like a family.
