Not on Netflix, but if you have access to HBO, this is a must watch as is Eastbound and Down. 1st season of Eastbound and Down is the funniest thing I've ever seen and the other seasons are good, but are a letdown in comparison.
The above is true. Find a way to watch Always Sunny also.

Veep is a good one, imagine a political thriller like House of Cards if it was a 30 minute sitcom. The first several seasons of Veep are on Amazon Prime. Eastbound and Down is on Prime too.

I mean problem is Netflix is moving away from the streaming other people's licensed shows platform and moving on to random rotating movies and original content.
Hulu is your go to for streaming shows now.

As someone else stated, watch Community. One of my all-time favorites.

Eastbound season 1 is as close to a perfect comedy as you can get. Season 2 it goes off the rails but season 3 is good and had a really satisfying conclusion.
I thought Vice Principals was great as well, it's a dark comedy so not everyone's cup tea but if you're into that kind of comedy I'd look it up,m. And like Eastbound had a pretty perfect series finale.
Of all the movies/shows that have been made about the American politics Veep is the most accurate about how things really work.

Scrubs is amazing
If you've never seen Scrubs, you should take some time off of work and head home and knock that out.
Otherwise, there's nothing wrong with binging The Office, followed by P&R, then repeating.

Get Hilu and watch Brooklyn Nine Nine.

I'll echo Scrubs, Community, and Arrested Development. All three are incredibly good. I'm not sure if Scrubs is on NF anymore though...I know it used to be, but I thought it got pulled shortly after I finished my rewatch last year.
I will also defend Arrested Development S4. I found it to be almost exactly like the first three seasons, at least in terms of effort. Sure, it may not be "as good" as S1 and S2, but few shows in history are. But IMO if you liked the first three seasons then you should also like S4. It's just as overly silly and intertwined as the original run.
I love Superstore; watch it every week. It reminds me of an old TBS sitcom that only aired for a short period, 10 Items or Less. It was basically about shenanigans that go on inside and with the employees of a supermarket. So Superstore is sort of a better version of 10IoL I guess. It's pretty solid.

One of the producers from The Office made a new show called Superstore that's pretty funny. Imagine if The Office was filmed in Target. Currently only streaming on Hulu and Amazon Video I think.

30 Rock would be the closest to those shows in terms of quality and style of show imo.

King of the Hill... Created by Mike judge and Greg Daniels(who also created parks and rec). Even though it's a cartoon, it's my all time favorite show

Season 5 of arrested development is coming this year!

Scrubs was taken off Netflix a few months ago. I was in middle of a rewatch. I started 30 Rock, got into S3, and it also got removed from Netflix.
We usually keep it on Frasier, Parks, and Office at night.

is Modern Family on Netflix?
Another vote for Modern Family. Quit watching when you start to notice Alex's boobs. That's when it becomes a parody of itself. (Still watchable though.)

Awesome! There's always money in the banana stand! Seriously, it's the GOAT comedy and I can't wait.

All these shows are great.
Brooklyn 99 on Hulu is Mike Shur though. Same guy who created Parks and Rec, and really probably the main creative force behind the office even though Greg Daniels was technically the main guy.
Extremely similar in tone and ensemble cast workplace comedy as the office and parks and rec. Not quite as good as either at their peaks, but very enjoyable and very bingeable.
