20. It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia

It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia
Source: IMDb
  • Creator: Rob McElhenney, Glenn Howerton
  • Cast: Charlie Day, Glenn Howerton, Rob McElhenney, Kaitlin Olson
  • IMDb Rating: 8.8
  • Rotten Tomatoes: 94%
  • Streaming Platforms: Netflix, Prime Videos, and Hulu

It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia follows a bunch of humorous buddies who serve at Paddy’s, a neighborhood bar in Philadelphia. Charlie, Dennis, Frank, as well as Dee, are indeed a wacky gang of pals that stick together despite their differences (for the most part). They’re nicknamed “The Gang,” but in each chapter, they concoct a new method to realize their own poisonous fantasies.

This gang of twisted misfits is constantly up to something criminal, defrauding people for money and entertainment. The show doesn’t steer away from controversial topics like abortion or discrimination, and it even tells tales about them. It takes chances with an offense yet manages to pull off scathing humor time and time afresh.

19. Playing House

Playing House
Source: USA Network
  • Creator: Lennon Parham, Jessica St. Clair
  • Cast: Lennon Parham, Jessica St. Clair, Keegan-Michael Key, Brad Morris
  • IMDb Rating: 7.7
  • Rotten Tomatoes: 90%
  • Streaming Platform: Prime Videos and Vudu

This series, which stars Jessica St. Clair, Keegan-Michael Key, as well as Lennon Parham, is all about a lady who returns to her tiny town and immediately moves in along with her former best friend, who not only is just divorced but also expecting a baby.

They plan to raise the child together now and, of usual, have several accidents while attempting to live as regular a life as possible — despite the fact that adopting non-normalcy is their specialty.

18. Superstore

Superstore

  • Creator: Justin Spitzer
  • Cast: Ben Feldman, Lauren Ash, Colton Dunn, Nico Santos
  • IMDb Rating: 7.8
  • Rotten Tomatoes: 93%
  • Streaming Platforms: Netflix, Prime Videos, and Hulu

Superstore, a drama about a group of folks who work at a Walmart-style megastore, is not to be missed. This excellent cast of hilarious and then sometimes just plain odd characters, directed by America Ferrera, will crawl its way inside your emotions. You’ll cheer for almost every one of these characters, much the same as the New Girl cast, whether they’re swooning on each other or banding together to save the business (again and over).

Superstore is among the most underappreciated sitcoms on television. Wait till you indulge in Jonah and Amy, the romance stars of work comedy Superstore, if you really like New Girl’s ability to drag out a will-they-won’t-they romance for years. Superstore is also inhabited by an unending stream of masterfully crafted, almost usually well-intentioned goofs, adding to the New Girl feel.

This show felt forced to cover relevant contemporary themes, including maternity leave, immigration, and unionization, as a sitcom that ran nearly exclusively under the Trump regime. Superstore might just be what you require if you’ve been rethinking New Girl’s many police-based stories in previous years.

17. Brooklyn Nine-Nine

Brooklyn Nine-Nine
Source: TV Insider
  • Creator: Dan Goor, Michael Schur
  • Cast: Andy Samberg, Stephanie Beatriz, Terry Crews, Melissa Fumero
  • IMDb Rating: 8.4
  • Rotten Tomatoes: 95%
  • Streaming Platforms: Netflix, Prime Videos, and Hulu

“Brooklyn Nine-Nine,” an NBC cop drama, follows Officer Jake Peralta (Andy Samberg) alongside his colleagues at the NYPD’s 99th department. Jake’s arrest record is the greatest in the precinct. Inside a “Brooklyn Nine-Nine” with “New Girl” crossover, he’s so skilled at his profession that he pulls over Jess’ vehicle for high-speed pursuit. We were able to see this humorous award-winning sitcom on Fox for five seasons.

Following Fox’s cancellation of the show, NBC took it up for the final three seasons. This film has received critical accolades for its representation of LGBTQ+ individuals, such as openly homosexual police chief Raymond Holt (Andre Braugher).

According to Braugher, who spoke to The Advocate, “Trust it or not, this is really a ground-breaking sitcom. Also, I’m not sure it was supposed to be a ground-breaking comic — it’s polite and sympathetic, which is unexpected.” Homophobic depictions have long been a problem in the cop drama genre, and this program is no exception.

Rather, the humor comes from the characters who make up the Nine-day-to-day Nine’s routines. Who’d have guessed a police process could be so amusing?

16. Friends From College

Friends From College

  • Creator: Francesca Delbanco, Nicholas Stoller
  • Cast: Keegan-Michael Key, Cobie Smulders, Annie Parisse, Nat Faxon
  • IMDb Rating: 6.9
  • Rotten Tomatoes: 26%
  • Streaming Platform: Netflix

It’s the only program on this list for which fans may wait anxiously for fresh seasons. This new sitcom centers on a group of adult pals who have drifted apart since graduation. Nevertheless, their lives cross again 20 years later, and situations get nasty, ridiculous, and amusing.

All watchers will undoubtedly chuckle and cringe as a result of this. This sitcom is perfect for fans of New Girl’s crazy and quirky attitude, and there are two seasons available to watch right now.

15. The Big Bang Theory

The Big Bang Theory (2007)
Source: IMDb
  • Creator: Chuck Lorre, Bill Prady
  • Cast: Johnny Galecki, Jim Parsons, Kaley Cuoco, Simon Helberg
  • IMDb Rating: 8.2
  • Rotten Tomatoes: 81%
  • Streaming Platforms: Netflix, Prime Videos, and Vudu

This is perhaps the most watched show on the list within recent memory. The Big Bang Theory took the events of Leonard Hofstadter as well as Sheldon Cooper, housemates and masterminds who serve at Caltech, as well as a waitress but rather attempting actress named Penny who dwells out across the hall from them, and about their socially inept mates. It is developed by Chuck Lorre, the “Lord of Sitcoms.”

It’s a strange world out there, and the notion of “genius” is constantly questioned. The sitcom received multiple Emmy nominations, having Jim Parsons’ Sheldon Cooper obtaining the Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Role in something like a Comedy Series 4 times, as well as a Golden Globe.

14. Two Broke Girls

Two Broke Girls

  • Creator: Whitney Cummings, Michael Patrick King
  • Cast: Kat Dennings, Beth Behrs, Garrett Morris, Jonathan Kite
  • IMDb Rating: 6.6
  • Rotten Tomatoes: no scores yet
  • Streaming Platform: Prime Video, VUDU, Vudu Movie & TV Store, and Apple TV

While the cast is a little less than The New Girl, this program has a similar sense of humor, as it depicts two women that couldn’t be more unlike staying together within New York City while attempting to make a livelihood as waiters in a diner. They ultimately devise a plot to free them, but not before they realize that aside their differences, they are indeed great friends.

This 3-camera sitcom was out of the ordinary, particularly for CBS. It was more than a drama concerning two 20-somethings desperately trying to make it all in up-and-coming Brooklyn because it was strongly laced with drugs and sex implications.

The comedy features Kat Dennings as well as Beth Behrs as antagonists who find up as housemates in a combination of Odd Couple & Alice. Two Broke Girls eventually expanded to include stories about the other quirky characters, despite the fact that the show’s primary focus was on the duo.

13. Shrill

Shrill

  • Creator: Aidy Bryant, Alexandra Rushfield, Lindy West
  • Cast: Aidy Bryant, Lolly Adefope, John Cameron Mitchell, Ian Owens
  • IMDb Rating: 7.3
  • Rotten Tomatoes: 88%
  • Streaming Platform: Prime Videos and Hulu

Aidy Bryant has become a staple on Saturday Night Live for a long time. She grabbed her cheerful radiance from that show and applied it to Hulu’s Shrill.

Annie, Aidy’s protagonist in this sitcom, is prepared for a significant shift. She does not, however, wish to change her figure. All through the program, she has to cope with a slew of bad boyfriends and bosses, as well as sick parents.

12. Young & Hungry

Young & Hungry

  • Creator: David Holden
  • Cast: Emily Osment, Jonathan Sadowski, Aimee Carrero, Kym Whitley
  • IMDb Rating: 7.3
  • Rotten Tomatoes: 43%
  • Streaming Platform: Netflix, Prime Videos and Disney+

Miley Cyrus may not be the only Hannah Montana star who ditched her adolescent image when the Disney show finished. Emily Osment, who plays her closest friend on the program, took the same path on Freeform’s Young & Hungry.

Gabi, a Florida immigrant living in San Francisco and serving as the personal chef to software whiz Josh Kaminski, is the leader of the typical comedy. Once Gabi has a one-night fling with Josh, her life becomes complex. Their on-and-off relationship becomes a recurring story thread throughout the show’s run.

11. Love life

  • Creator: Sam Boyd
  • Cast: Anna Kendrick, Zoe Chao, Peter Vack, Sasha Compère
  • IMDb Rating: 7.5
  • Rotten Tomatoes: 79%
  • Streaming Platform: Netflix and Prime Videos

Love Life debuted in May 2020 as a portion of HBO Max’s premiere. The program is anthology-based rather than a traditional sitcom. Darby Carter, who Anna Kendrick plays, is the central character of the show.

The romantic drama focuses on a different aspect of Darby’s life as well as relationships in each episode. Everybody in the show, including recurring characters and visitors, goes through the process of figuring out the ideal date and future relations.

10. Friends

  • Creator: David Crane, Marta Kauffman
  • Cast: Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, Matt LeBlanc
  • IMDb Rating: 8.9
  • Rotten Tomatoes: 79%
  • Streaming Platform: Netflix and Prime Videos

NBC debuted a straightforward sitcom featuring six 20-somethings navigating their lifestyles in New York City around 1994. Certain viewers may remember the show. Friends is the name of the famous series.

This now-legendary sitcom, which ran for ten seasons, impacted a large number of the series featured. Notwithstanding the sitcom’s regular structure, all of the protagonists grew from the first to the last episode. Friends and its cast have had a lasting impact on subsequent shows, despite the fact that it first aired almost a quarter-century ago.

9. Jane the Virgin

  • Creator: Jennie Snyder Urman
  • Cast: Gina Rodriguez, Andrea Navedo, Yael Grobglas, Justin Baldoni
  • IMDb Rating: 7.9
  • Rotten Tomatoes: 100%

This comedy sitcom ran for five seasons and received a 7.8/10 rating on IMDb. This program is perfect for anyone who likes a quirky female lead. This episode stars Gina Rodriguez as a youthful Catholic lady who realizes she has been artificially inseminated by mistake.

This program is pure, harmonious, and entertaining. With the same funny and endearing female protagonist as Jessica Day, this program is sure to please Jessica Day’s admirers, and there are plenty of episodes to enjoy and re-watch.

8. Chewing Gum

  • Creator: Michaela Coel
  • Cast: Michaela Coel, Danielle Walters, Robert Lonsdale, Shola Adewusi
  • IMDb Rating: 7.7
  • Rotten Tomatoes: 100%
  • Streaming Platform: Netflix and Prime Videos

This underrated comedy series only lasted two seasons, so enthusiasts can binge it in no time and enjoy all of the laughs. This series follows Tracy as she deals with friends, family, and relationships within the confines of her neighborhood.

Tracey is a sex-obsessed, Beyoncé-obsessed virgin who is about as uncomfortable as she is arrogant inside this British comedy. As life throws her curveballs, she manages to adapt while dealing with her devout mother and sister.

This program will have you binge-watching it from beginning to end because of its distinct and endearing characters. It’s also British, which will give viewers a different spin on their favorite sitcoms while remaining completely enjoyable and original.

7. Community

  • Creator: Dan Harmon
  • Cast: Joel McHale, Danny Pudi, Danny Pudi, Chevy Chase
  • IMDb Rating: 8.5
  • Rotten Tomatoes: 88%
  • Streaming Platforms: Netflix, Prime Videos, and Hulu

This underappreciated comedic series has a cult following, and anyone who hasn’t watched it should do so immediately. If you enjoyed 4D’s loft, you’d enjoy this gang as well. This comedy follows a group of young people at a Colorado community college.

This humorous program, featuring Joel McHale, Alison Brie, plus Donald Glover, is full of energy, romance, friendships, and all sorts of turmoil. With an IMDb rating of 8.5/10, viewers should binge-watch all six seasons right away.

6. Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt

  • Creator: Robert Carlock, Tina Fey
  • Cast: Ellie Kemper, Jane Krakowski, Tituss Burgess, Carol Kane
  • IMDb Rating: 7.6
  • Rotten Tomatoes: 96%
  • Streaming Platform: Netflix

Ellie Kemper portrays the youthful and ambitious Kimmy Schmidt in this critically acclaimed comedy-drama. She travels to New York City to restart her life after already being saved from a doomsday cult. It’s difficult to find a regular life, and it’s also humorous and healthy.

This is the quintessential “self-discovery” sitcom, starring an outstanding ensemble and including hilarious and relatable themes. This program will make everyone giggle, and Kimmy Schmidt would more than makeup for Jessica Day’s absence.

5. Undateable

  • Creator: Adam Sztykiel
  • Cast: Chris D’Elia, Brent Morin, Bianca Kajlich, Ron Funches
  • IMDb Rating: 7.2
  • Rotten Tomatoes: 60%
  • Streaming Platform: Prime Videos and Vudu

It is yet another program that deserves a lot more attention than it got. In maturity, a womanizer, his sister, his bartending roommate, and three other buddies are all battling with the dating environment.

This sitcom features all of the uncomfortable and realistic dating scenes that we all liked regarding New Girl, which has three seasons to devour. This unusual and amusing show has been overlooked by many of us, but it is well worth seeing.

4. Don’t Trust The B—- In Apartment 23

Don't Trust The B---- In Apartment 23

  • Creator: Nahnatchka Khan
  • Cast: Krysten Ritter, Dreama Walker, Michael Blaiklock, Eric André
  • IMDb Rating: 7.3
  • Rotten Tomatoes: 85%
  • Streaming Platform: Hulu, Prime Videos and Disney+

During 2012 and 2013, fans couldn’t get enough of our odd couple for two seasons. June is the protagonist of the program. June obtains employment at a coffee shop as well as a new roommate named Chloe when her aspirations for a perfect existence go up in flames due to the company she’s with crumpling.

The attractive and brilliant Krysten Ritter portrays Chloe, a New York party girl, in this drama. She has to manage her new, innocent small-town companion and her male best friend, both of whom have minimal morals and a fixation with causing problems.

Whenever it concerns sitcoms, this program is rather distinctive and features an incredible cast of characters. It features two strong female leads and retains all of the fun of adolescence and friendship. There are two seasons for this program, both of which are wonderfully entertaining.

3. Happy endings

Happy endings

  • Creator: David Caspe
  • Cast: Eliza Coupe, Elisha Cuthbert, Zachary Knighton, Adam Pally
  • IMDb Rating: 7.8
  • Rotten Tomatoes: 76%
  • Streaming Platform: Prime Videos and Hulu

This romantic comedy series is set in Chicago and chronicles six friends as they attempt to navigate adulthood. To be truthful, this sounds remarkably like our New Girl bunch, and this program also stars Damon Wayans Jr., the attractive man who brought Coach to the television.

This program is unique, relevant, and another entertaining story of young people attempting to make it through maturity, romances, connections, and daily life. This program gives us the same sense as witnessing the group from the attic sort out life.

Although they may not always make the best judgments, they constantly pull together to aid one another, whether it’s with a job, love, or petty group conflicts. All of they’ll smite you.

2. The Mindy Project

  • Creator: Mindy Kaling
  • Cast: Mindy Kaling, Ike Barinholtz, Ed Weeks, Chris Messina
  • IMDb Rating: 7.4
  • Rotten Tomatoes: 86%
  • Streaming Platforms: Netflix, Prime Videos, and Hulu

This program is also for fans of quirky female leads who can relate to them. Mindy Kaling stars as a young OB/GYN doctor who should strike a balance between her private and professional life in this comedy written by and featuring her.

This sitcom will undoubtedly have friends, lovers, and amusing mistakes, just like Jessica Day attempting to sort out her lifestyle. Mindy Kaling is also an angel, and her performing and producing talent and ingenuity will undoubtedly amuse audiences.

1. Broad city

Broad city

  • Creator: Ilana Glazer, Abbi Jacobson
  • Cast: Ilana Glazer, Abbi Jacobson, Hannibal Buress, Arturo Castro
  • IMDb Rating: 8.4
  • Rotten Tomatoes: 99%
  • Streaming Platform: Prime Videos and Hulu

This sitcom is underappreciated, with an IMDb rating of 8.4/1o. This program, which follows the daily experiences of two ladies in New York City, has always been about the banal aspects of life, as well as how these two have seemed to make things ludicrous and humorous.

Yes, this sounds eerily similar to the disasters perpetrated by others in the attic, and supporters of our New Girl crew will enjoy following these two ladies’ frenetic lives. Obviously, some more eccentric and daring female power is always welcome.
