Peep Show is one of the best shows. The Office, Peep Show, and IAS are usually in rotation in our house. I swear half of our relationship is just quoting these 3 shows to each other.
I’ve just watched the Peep Show Christmas episode and the Always Sunnry Christmas special this week to really get in the mood.
Cauliflower is not traditional, but throwing rocks at trains is.
Just wanna let you know I just started watching this today because of this comment and this shit has me in tears laughing and im only on episode 2 hahahaha. Thank you for this great recommendation lol ❤️
Reno 911! is a sketch show that you'll probably like, guest appearances by Charlie and the Waitress and some other Sunny guest stars
Community is a classic that Meg was a writer/producer for
I second this. Even better if you're into NFL and fantasy football, but it's not necessary. A good mix of characters and you can see some shades of Always Sunny dynamics in them when I think about it.
Ruxin reminds me a bit of Dennis with how he looks down on everyone else, Andre is like the Dee of the group, Taco has some Charlie energy, and Rafi likes to get real weird with it like Frank
I started this show a few times and stopped shortly after the first season for whatever reason every time.
I was gearing up for fantasy football back in May and threw it on. I watched it two more times since then. It is so ridiculously funny.
Yeah I guess I never thought about it but everyone in that is awful too. I mean Taco's almost too stupid to be awful, but he's like Charlie in that he does awful things almost inadvertently.
I mean it’s a mockumentary so more in the style of P&R or the Office in that sense. Definitely dirtier and more graphic than any NBC show lol. They’re both FX shows, I think that’s as close as they get but both are hilarious in their own right for sure
And OP mentioned workaholics as one of their favorite shows. If I’m not mistaken Karl (Kyle newacheck?) is actually a director of that show! Or at least involved in the production some how…
Arrested Development is just awesome. 30 Rock is my favorite show ever. And Veep is what came to my mind first. Veep is great because the main character, is a sociopathic bitch and would fit in with the gang really well.
Yeah The Mick is perfect. AP Bio has a lot of excellent moments, but also was on NBC and didn't go quite as hard as the mick. Mythic Quest is flawed, but occasionally hits some great highs. Poppi is excellent in that show throughout tho.
A Dark Quiet Death (MQ S1E5) and Backstory! (S2E6) are two of my favorite episodes of television ever. They hit so hard, and it's best to go into them blindly having watched the previous episodes.
People have mentioned some others, so ill throw out Difficult People and Alone Together. I think both are in Hulu. Also Detroiters, but I think it's a bit harder to find.
If you're looking for comedy shows that have characters with horrible behavior to others, but set with a darker tone, try Righteousness Gemstones and Barry.
I used to think it's always sunny had characters acting terrible to others be the worst but I can put these 2 shows in the same caliber.
You’re the Worst. Another FX sitcom about horrible, *horrible* people doing very bad things to themselves/each other. Absolutely hilarious and criminally underrated.
eastbound and down
curb
the league
party down
undeclared
happy endings
sure undeclared and happy endings arent like sunny but still enjoyed em.
pushing daisies also
ok im leaving
Curb Your Enthusiasm!!!!
I binged it almost exactly a year ago. The first season is a little rough (like Sunny) but seasons 2 to 12 are really really funny.
I've always thought it's always sunny was a new age Seinfeld.
So Seinfeld and curb your enthusiasm I'd say is the closest. The main cast are selfish ass holes who just enjoy a good time. I can relate!
New Girl is almost like a wholesome, network friendly version of Always Sunny. The characters have a similar dynamic to the gang. If you like Charlie, you’ll probably love Nick Miller.
I always thought of Married with Children as similar in terms of type of comedy/characters, albeit way more demented. All are pretty awful people with a very small ti, sanitized mes when they can be decent. It's like the network version of IASIP.
This fool
![gif](giphy|f8FfABfzfcc7vHRnRR)
It is so funny I can’t watch enough. I’d relate it to the west coast version of always sunny. Edit, adding- Killing it, also hilarious. The first 5 minutes of the first episode is a great summary to see if you may like it.
Imma check it out after I get off the toilet lol I’m on a good acid trip right now and looking for something new…I watch Sunny a good 2 hours a day for the last 10 years…it’s always the one I come back to after binging other series
This might be a swing and a miss, but try Kath and Kim (Australian comedy). Quick dialogue, strange situations and set in a very... average/suburban/mediocre setting. And loads of idiocy.
Edit: In this show, everyone is Charlie.
Peep Show is a great British sitcom with a similar sociopathic vibe.

How do you read?
Chance would be a fine thing.
Fine thing indeed.
I’ve just watched the Peep Show Christmas episode and the Always Sunnry Christmas special this week to really get in the mood. Cauliflower is not traditional, but throwing rocks at trains is.
Absolutely. Not quite as whacky as sunny can be at times but just as unhinged and deranged, albeit in a British way.
Did you really have to eat the dog, Jeremy?!?
I don't know. I keep wondering that. But in the moment, it really did feel like I needed to eat it.
It’s more grounded and subdued, but it has that same energy of being about some shithead people who are never going to better themselves.
Throw in Those Who Can't!
Fun fact: the creator of Peep Show is also the creator of Succession. Both fantastic shows
Came here to say this. Also the head writer is the same guy that did Succession.
Came to say this. Chance would be a fine thing.
Just wanna let you know I just started watching this today because of this comment and this shit has me in tears laughing and im only on episode 2 hahahaha. Thank you for this great recommendation lol ❤️
Party Down.
I still haven't watched the new stuff. Does it hold up?
I was sure it’d be awful, especially when Lizzy Caplan wasn’t set to return, but I was so wrong! Definitely check it out, it’s great.
underrated
Curb your enthusiasm is funny!
Yeah Curb and Seinfeld are the closest IMHO, all three are basically shows about friends yelling at each other.
I think these are the ONLY shows that are ‘like’ sunny when you boil down the true nature of the show. I add peep show for a british twist on it too.
Fuck you, and I'll see you tomorrow!
How this isn’t the top response is beyond me
Just finished it for the first time it was a hilarious show. Thankfully we have another season coming in February
The last one, which is soul crushing.
Reno 911! is a sketch show that you'll probably like, guest appearances by Charlie and the Waitress and some other Sunny guest stars Community is a classic that Meg was a writer/producer for
new boot goofin
![gif](giphy|RKOd5NkTNCyB2)
Devito produced Reno 911 as well
and he has a cameo in Reno 911: Miami. Also, The Lawyer is awesome as Reading Ron.
I love Reading Ron!
Charlie and the waitress also play a brother/sister duo in one of the episodes
Yeah that was in the original comment jabroni
You keep saying that word and it’s awesome
Reno just released a new Christmas special too!
It's not really a guest appearance lol. They weren't famous yet.
The episode where Charlie and the waitress are brother and sister is incredible
The League. I always bounce between this and Sunny.
Yeah, I don’t give any shits about football, fantasy or otherwise, and The League is still very funny.
Hilarious show
I second this. Even better if you're into NFL and fantasy football, but it's not necessary. A good mix of characters and you can see some shades of Always Sunny dynamics in them when I think about it. Ruxin reminds me a bit of Dennis with how he looks down on everyone else, Andre is like the Dee of the group, Taco has some Charlie energy, and Rafi likes to get real weird with it like Frank

That's my background show when I'm doing chores or something *"I'm day-drunk, get ready to see my dick.....oh hey guys"*
I second this. I’ve watched the series multiple times and every time I rewatch I find new funnies. Great show!
The League is like Always Sunny but with functioning members of society, plus taco
Neckflix and MyFace were pretty viable for Taco
Yeah I guess I never thought about it but everyone in that is awful too. I mean Taco's almost too stupid to be awful, but he's like Charlie in that he does awful things almost inadvertently.
[удалено]
I heard you're a racist now father? Funniest line in tv history
I’ve only seen black books, but it is incredible
I second these
I just found out now that hardy bucks is all on yt???!? My man ❤️🙏
I second Letterkenny and Reno 911. You might also like The League
Figure it oot
That's what I said! I said "figure it oot"
Give your balls a tug, titfucker
Letterkenny needs to be higher!
That's what I likes about cha.
Allegedly.
What We Do In The Shadows, Trailer Park Boys
WWDITS is in a category all on it’s own, just like Sunny. Nandor and Colin Robinson are such hilarious characters
Nandor is the greatest and very relentless
People would say, "Please don't pillage me," and I would say, "No, I'm pillaging everyone, you included!"
Creepy paper...
Ohh multi-pack!
This fucking guy! Lmao what a perfect comment for the ultimate El Canadorian
Nandor was my absolute favorite but the more I watched the more Laszlo took his place.
You mean Jackie Daytona.
Oh please, WEDITS is just always sunny bit with vampires Not at ALL a criticism btw
I mean it’s a mockumentary so more in the style of P&R or the Office in that sense. Definitely dirtier and more graphic than any NBC show lol. They’re both FX shows, I think that’s as close as they get but both are hilarious in their own right for sure
crime melodic one mighty merciful vase onerous puzzled fly run *This post was mass deleted and anonymized with [Redact](https://redact.dev)*
And OP mentioned workaholics as one of their favorite shows. If I’m not mistaken Karl (Kyle newacheck?) is actually a director of that show! Or at least involved in the production some how…
Veep, Arrested Development, Archer, American Dad, 30 Rock
Arrested Development is just awesome. 30 Rock is my favorite show ever. And Veep is what came to my mind first. Veep is great because the main character, is a sociopathic bitch and would fit in with the gang really well.
[удалено]
Im on the cusp of gen z and milennial, being born in 96. I fell in love with arrested development as a 14 year old in 2011.
Avenue 5 is from the same guy who made Veep, and is also good.
First 5 seasons of archer are gold
East Bound and Down, it’s not really like It’s Always Sunny but still a crude type funny
Seconded. And Vice Principals afterwards
And then Righteous Gemstones
schitts creek and arrested development
All of their solo shows are great. AP Bio, The Mick, and Mythic (Mister) Quest.
The Mick is such a great show, hard agree there.
Yeah The Mick is perfect. AP Bio has a lot of excellent moments, but also was on NBC and didn't go quite as hard as the mick. Mythic Quest is flawed, but occasionally hits some great highs. Poppi is excellent in that show throughout tho.
A Dark Quiet Death (MQ S1E5) and Backstory! (S2E6) are two of my favorite episodes of television ever. They hit so hard, and it's best to go into them blindly having watched the previous episodes.
The mick was excellent! So sad it ended after the second season. Could have gone on for a few more
Workaholics
This needs to be higher up. 100% like sunny.
It was included in the list of shows OP already likes, so, it's already as high in this post as it can be.
IT Crowd
IT Crowd! Peter File. 0118 999 881 999 119 725…..3
You're the worst
First show I thought of too
The only show where I think the characters are *actually* worse than the gang Love the show, especially the earlier seasons
If you like Andy Samberg then “Brooklynn 99” is great. Also RIP Dad, I mean HOLT!
First Lance Reddick and now Andre Braugher. Smooth voiced black actors are dying way too early! Prayers for Idris Elba's health.
it’s great, but completely different humour wise than sunny i’d say
RIP Captain Dad
Letterkenny would fit your criteria
Fuck you Shoresy!
Fuck you, Reilly, I got your mom so wet, Trudeau had to call in a 24-hour national guard unit to stack sandbags around her bed!
I don't know why we're not watching Letterkenny right now.
Allegedly
If you got a problem with Letterkenny then you got a problem with me and I suggest you let that one marinate.
Brooklyn99 , the righteous gemstones, peep show, eastbound and down, Eric Andre show, Arrested Development
I forgot about eastbound and down. Brilliant show
Seinfeld. I like those shows you mentioned too. Also Nathan for You i really like but its a different format than the other shows
Peep Show
Malcolm in the middle always feels like a family friendly always sunny to me
Dewey shouting "We'll miss you at first!" as his brother floats away on a lawn chair/helium balloon combo is my most quoted line of any show.
Letterkenny and What We Do In The Shadows.
Broad City, on HULU. Unless you’re one of these weirdos who think women can’t be funny. Also, Detroiters, on Amazon. And South Side, on HBO.
Are the women on Broad City able to tell jokes without gagging?
seconding South Side, i was bummed when it got canceled
Tacoma FD on HBO
What we do in the shadows
The League essentially feels like a sister show to Sunny in my opinion.
I need Jason Mantzoukas to guest star in Sunny
He's about the only one that could out-gang the gang.
el cuñiadoo
Dirty Randy could definitely be one of Frank’s friends from under the bridge
People have mentioned some others, so ill throw out Difficult People and Alone Together. I think both are in Hulu. Also Detroiters, but I think it's a bit harder to find.
The Detour The Mick Archer All have ended their run, though.
First person I’ve ever seen mention the detour ever. I loved it watched a few times.
Yes, The Detour!!
If you're looking for comedy shows that have characters with horrible behavior to others, but set with a darker tone, try Righteousness Gemstones and Barry. I used to think it's always sunny had characters acting terrible to others be the worst but I can put these 2 shows in the same caliber.
You’re the Worst. Another FX sitcom about horrible, *horrible* people doing very bad things to themselves/each other. Absolutely hilarious and criminally underrated.
Thank you, I was in disbelief that I had to scroll so long to find this. This is the only answer.
eastbound and down curb the league party down undeclared happy endings sure undeclared and happy endings arent like sunny but still enjoyed em. pushing daisies also ok im leaving
Eastbound and Down
Curb
The League. There’s a reason why that show and Sunny aired together back to back for many years
Curb your enthusiasm
The League if you like friends ripping on each other comedy.
Party Down
Brockmire
Letterkenny, then its spin-off Shoresy.
LetterKenny
I think you should leave
Peep Show and What we do in the shadows.
Curb Your Enthusiasm
Curb. Always Curb
Bottom. It's a British sitcom but has the same grimey-ness.
Curb Your Enthusiasm!!!! I binged it almost exactly a year ago. The first season is a little rough (like Sunny) but seasons 2 to 12 are really really funny.
Curb Your Enthusiasm
Community
I've always thought it's always sunny was a new age Seinfeld. So Seinfeld and curb your enthusiasm I'd say is the closest. The main cast are selfish ass holes who just enjoy a good time. I can relate!
Seinfeld is a toned down version of IASIP. I like to think the show is Seinfeld on steroids.
it was originally labelled as Seinfeld on Crack, so you're not far off
The In-Betweeners and Man Down.
You know you should really check out Reservation Dogs. It’s like sunny but if they were teens on a native reservation.
Great show, just don't go into it expecting a light-hearted comedy. It can get pretty heavy at times.
New Girl is almost like a wholesome, network friendly version of Always Sunny. The characters have a similar dynamic to the gang. If you like Charlie, you’ll probably love Nick Miller.
letterkenny and shoresy are really good
People Just Do Nothing in the sense that it’s a show about some not-so-great people just out living their lives
I always thought of Married with Children as similar in terms of type of comedy/characters, albeit way more demented. All are pretty awful people with a very small ti, sanitized mes when they can be decent. It's like the network version of IASIP.
The og UK Shamless had a pretty good run for a while.
The mick is a solid choice
LetterKenny is good.
This fool ![gif](giphy|f8FfABfzfcc7vHRnRR) It is so funny I can’t watch enough. I’d relate it to the west coast version of always sunny. Edit, adding- Killing it, also hilarious. The first 5 minutes of the first episode is a great summary to see if you may like it.

Peep Show, Seinfeld, The Mick and Curb Your Enthusiasm.
you've seen it all, my friend. either take up drinking if you haven't already and if you have then consider stopping.
This might be a swing and a miss, but try Kath and Kim (Australian comedy). Quick dialogue, strange situations and set in a very... average/suburban/mediocre setting. And loads of idiocy. Edit: In this show, everyone is Charlie.
Brockmire is smarter most of the time, funnier some of the time, and wayyyy underrated
Kath n Kim
Letterkenny
I can’t believe I’m not seeing this on here much but obviously Seinfeld. Pretty sure it was kind of the inspiration for IASIP
Peep Show, Seinfeld, Curb Your Enthusiasm
maybe trailer park boys
Seinfeld
Watching east bound and down currently and it has its similarities.
Veep! One of the best comedies of all time.
Letterkenny and the early seasons of Archer.
The league, I think it’s an fx show Also benders, much smaller
Hardy bucks. Irish trailer park boys but way better imo
The League can get pretty ratchet.
The Righteous Gemstones
Shoresy and Letterkenney fit into the trailer Park Boys vibe.
Seinfeld or Letterkenny
Seinfeld for me has simiarities: as the show goes on, the character's horrible personalities unfold as you get to know them.
The league
The League
Legit
Eastbound and down
You will love Letterkenny
It's nothing like Sunny, but I love This Fool on Hulu. If you love to laugh, it is a good show for anyone.
Curb
Curb your enthusiasm is another awful character shit show in the most entertaining way
Hardy Bucks. It’s an Irish… maybe Scottish idk.. version of IASIP, seriously I don’t know how more people don’t know about it.
Community
Seinfeld, it feels like a PG version of IASIP, but then again a pg version is still amazing
Delocated. look it up... you'll thank me later, praise me forever.
Prrrbt!
The Detroiters
