Before Jesse Armstrong went to HBO and made Succession, he made one of the best dark comedy series ever Peep Show. The Channel 4 series starring David Mitchell and Robert Webb follows two boys in their late twenties Mark Corrigan (Mitchell) and Jeremy Osbourne (Webb). Both meet at a fictional Dartmouth University and live together as roommates. Peep Show also stars Olivia Colman, Sophie Winkleman, and Matt King. The series ran for nine hilarious seasons and ended in 2015 with a banger of a finale. So, if you miss Peep Shows here are some shows you could watch to pass your time.

The IT Crowd (Netflix)

Into their life of ‘users’, pizza, science fiction and firewalls comes middle manager Jen, a spunky can-do career gal who doesn’t know one end of a laptop from the other.

Jeremy Strong, Kieran Culkin, Sarah Snook and Alan Ruck co-star as Logan’s children; also with Hiam Abbass, Nicholas Braun and Matthew Macfadyen.
