It's Always Sunny absolutely takes inspiration from Seinfeld. They're even self aware about it in the episode "The Gang Does a Clip Show" where they mistake a bit from Seinfeld as one of their own memories - https://youtu.be/fCwI3KDGtRk https://youtu.be/fCwI3KDGtRk How did you like Mythic Quest? I'm really glad to see Rob and Charlie involved but it's definitely a bit more tame. I really like Danny Pudi playing a Dennis-esque character and the actress who plays Poppy is hilarious.

  I really enjoyed MQ. It is ridiculous but also quite true to life according to my wife who is a video game producer. A lot of big personalities, egos, etc. I loved F. Murray Abraham's character. Quite the departure from Dar Adal in Homeland. Overall the whole cast on MQ was very good though.

And if you like Veep & Avenue 5 then check out In The Loop & The Thick of It - both by Armando Iannucci (Writer/Creator of them all)

I prefer Other Space to Avenue 5. It's also a comedy set on a spaceship with a hapless/semi-competent crew. Only 1 season ever made, and it's on Yahoo! Entertainment for free: https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/other-space-episode-1-into-the-great-211801697.html https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/other-space-episode-1-in...

  I remember Other Space! I watched it when it came out and really enjoyed it as well. One of the actors from Other Space is on Avenue 5 https://m.imdb.com/name/nm2654481/ https://m.imdb.com/name/nm2654481/

I never watched Seinfeld or Curb Your Enthusiasm however I grabbed season 1 of Curb two weeks ago as I am in lockdown and wanted something different/new (to me) to watch and fell in love with it. I am now on season 8(!) and there hasn't been a single episode I have not thoroughly enjoyed. It is a superb show with some excellently executed jokes. Probably some of the best I have seen on TV. Some of the jokes are so superbly setup as well that you don't realise until the punchline drops that the build up has been several episodes. I also watched Mythic Quest earlier in the year which was a lot of fun. We mostly watched it because my wife is a video game producer so we had a good time laughing at how real some of the craziness can be in the video game production world. Avenue 5 took a while to find its pace but by the end of the season it was quite fun. Different but well done. I am looking forward to season 2. I plan to sit down and watch Always Sunny, Veep and Seinfeld now :)
