Check Out 10 Workplace Comedies to Watch
1. The Office
The Office literally peaks in the genre of Workplace Comedies and easily tops the list without any doubt. The influential mockumentary revolves around a failing paper company in Scranton, led by self-proclaimed “World’s Best Boss” Michael Scott (played by Steve Carell), who reinvents new ways of decreasing the overall productivity, and incrementing the fun of working (or at least the attempt to do so).
Created by Greg Daniels, you can stream all nine seasons of The Office on Amazon Prime Video.
2. Parks and Recreation
Parks and Recreation is another top-notch Workplace Comedy Created by Michael Schur (also part of The Office writing team) and Greg Daniels.

4. Blockbuster
Unfortunately, this humourous series starring Randall Park and Melissa Fumero was cancelled after a fun-filled first season.
