2. Brooklyn Nine-Nine

This light-hearted police comedy follows the misadventures of the 99th Precinct in Brooklyn. The show never disappoints when it comes to delivering witty lines and intricate cases but what makes it so brilliant is the fact that with each season, the main characters get better and better, which is priori a rare gem for long-running sitcoms.

And do you remember the "I Want It That Way" scene? A true cinematic masterpiece.

3. The Office

Coming back to the employees of Dunder Mifflin is always like reuniting with old friends. Quirky Michael Scott and his inappropriate jokes, Jim and his pranks on Dwight, Toby and his never-ending stories about the Scranton Strangler — all these moments always give us warmth with a good portion of laughs from cringe gags.

Michael once said that he wanted people to be afraid of how much they loved him. We hope he knows that we are terrified.
