The genre is not dead yet!
While sitcoms from the 1990s and early 2000s mostly follow the same genre rules no matter the setting, the modern sitcom is much more diverse and tends to borrow from other sources for inspiration.
But the idea of putting a bunch of interesting characters in one place and watching their relationships grow is still very much alive — and here are just seven of the best modern sitcoms to prove it.
7. Night Court (RT score – 73%)
Rebooting a beloved show is never easy, but rebooting Night Court, one of the defining sitcoms of the 80s, was an almost impossible task for the folks at NBC. Surprisingly, they managed to refresh the formula quite well, producing a compelling first season, and things can only go up from here!
6. Dave (RT score – 90%)
If you think that following the daily life of a rapper with the nickname Lil Dicky sounds like a daunting task, you are sorely mistaken because Dave is surprisingly great at writing, acting, and celebrity cameos.
5. Ghosts (RT score – 96%)
The American version of the hit British sitcom has managed to do what The Office did back in the day, successfully adapting the show without losing any of its original appeal. The idea of having normal people interact with ghosts is real comedy gold, making Ghosts a must-see for any fan of sitcoms.
4. Mythic Quest (RT score – 97%)
This Apple TV+ show starring Rob McElhenney is all about video games and geeks — but don't worry, even if you know nothing about World of Warcraft and StarCraft, you'll feel right at home with the wonderfully written characters of Mythic Quest.
3. The Other Two (RT score – 97%)
HBO Max's series about two adult sibling actors trying to match their younger brother's popularity is just the right setup for a sitcom about celebrity culture and influencers, making The Other Two the most relevant of the other shows on this list.
2. What We Do in the Shadows (RT score – 98%)
Series based on movies rarely reach the heights of the originals, but this sitcom is a different beast altogether. The story of vampire friends living under the same roof is so well written and acted that not loving it is simply not an option.
1. Abbot Elementary (RT score – 99%)
This school-centered sitcom was branded as The Office wannabe from the start, but the show immediately proved itself to be far more unique and original than anyone thought, quickly becoming the most popular comedy on television.
