A CONTINUED RECOMMENDED POST

Well, as a unique prompt, I will be giving some recommendations for the small screen. I am very much into comedy, but I can take some drama if I want to.

RULES: Shows must be scripted. That is all.

TIE: The Office, 30 Rock and Grey's Anatomy

Workplace sitcoms are always fun. I wouldn't call Grey's a sitcom, but it does have its funny moments. It's about a hospital in Seattle and its whereabouts. Mainly, the show revolves around its interns, who have an intertwined love life with each other and the staff. The patients also vary, which gives it a nice touch of anticipation. As for the true sitcoms, I prefer older seasons of the office simply because of Steve Carell. It's about the average day in an ordinary office--and all the shenanigans that go on within. It's sad the show's over now. I'm also depressed about the discontinuation of 30 Rock. It's about an ordinary day in and out of work at NBCUniversal. Specifically, the staff of a sketch comedy show, similar to Saturday Night Live.

Arrested Development

This show is hilarious. At least the first three seasons were. The Netflix version sucked. The series is about the wealthy Bluth dynasty, whose patriarch gets arrested for fraud. The family copes with the misfortune with a series of misadventures. For example; Michael's failing love life, Gob's failing magic life, Lindsay's failing sex life, Tobias' failing acting/coming out life, George Sr.'s failing prison life, Lucille's failing rich life and Buster's failing school/losing his left hand life. The show is filled with tropes and references that will come back to you as life goes on. It is sure to make your sides split into two.

Okay, so that's it. Stay classy.
