As one of the most hilarious mockumentary sitcoms that ever aired, “The Office” will forever have our hearts. From season one where we were introduced to some of our favorite characters like Michael Scott (Steve Carell) and Dwight Shrute (Rainn Wilson), to the ninth and final season where we have to say goodbye to the employees of Dunder Mifflin. However, you can only watch this series on repeat so many times. So, if you like “The Office” continue reading to find a show that you will love just as much!

2. “Abbott Elementary“

After winning several awards at this year’s Golden Globes, the hilarious sitcom “Abbott Elementary” confirmed that it will be returning for a third season. Rather than taking place in an office in Washington, Abbott Elementary is set in Philadelphia and documents the lives of passionate teachers as they try their best to help their students succeed in life.

Scott in “The Office,” Principal Ava Coleman (Janelle James) is a slightly out-of-touch boss who successfully contributes to the witty comedy of “Abbott Elementary.” More main characters including Jenine (Quinta Brunson), Barbara (Sheryl Lee Ralph), Jacob (Chris Perfetti) and Melissa (Lisa Ann Walter) all contribute their comedic skills to the show and are sure to give you a good laugh.

Full of loving yet flawed characters and awkward situations, “Modern Family” and “The Office” go hand in hand as some of the best sitcom-style shows to date.
