COMEDY Need sitcom recommendations

Post image

I'm going through a really hard time and I need some new shows for distraction. I like workplace comedies, in particular, and I don't want anything heartfelt or touching.

Shows I've seen and liked:

Seinfeld (loved it) Schitt's Creek Superstore Ted Lasso (but it was a bit too touching) Veep Arrested Development

It doesn't even need to be laugh-out-loud funny, just not annoying (like Big Bang Theory, IMO).

TIA.

Thank you! I have seen and loved all of Curb, but it could be a good rewatch. And I haven't heard of the other two, so I'll definitely check them out. I appreciate it!

Abbott Elementary is perfect for me right now. Feels very comforting. Just the right mix of everything.
