Shows that feel likeThe IT Crowd (2006–2010)

The comedic misadventures of Roy, Moss, and their grifting supervisor Jen, a 'motley crew' of IT support workers at a large corporation headed by a hotheaded yuppie.

If you loved The IT Crowd, the closest series we have are Silicon Valley (2014), Superstore (2015) and The Big Bang Theory (2007). All three share The IT Crowd's witty and playful feel, which is what we rank on before quality.

Seen the big three already? The under-the-radar pick below is The King of Queens (1998).

Two things both keep coming back to: nerd and computer

In the high-tech gold rush of modern Silicon Valley, the people most qualified to succeed are the least capable of handling success. Partially inspired by Mike Judge’s own experiences as a Silicon Valley engineer in the late ‘80s, Silicon Valley is an American sitcom that centers around six programmers who are living together and trying to make it big in the Silicon Valley.

Comedy with a pulse of play, in both cases

More prone to friendships with women, she's not used to hanging with the boys—especially at home.
