Perhaps the best thing since The Office

Net ix viewers have revealed they have found their next must-watch comedy which is being compared to Ricky Gervais’ e O ce.

Fisk, starring Kitty Flanagan, describes itself as ‘not another glamorous legal show’ and viewers have admitted they are already hooked.

e comedy’s rst season, which rst aired in 2021, was launched on Net ix on August 1 and has enjoyed a renaissance as a result.

One especially impressed user of the streaming giant wrote: ‘Watching ‘Fisk’, an Australian comedy that has me literally busting out laughing.

Fisk evokes Ricky Gervais’ e O ce with its fastpaced style and workplace setting - as well as comedy value e ABC comedy likely draws comparison to e O ce because of its workplace setting and relatable interactions.

It is a fast-paced sitcom about high-end contracts lawyer Helen Tudor-Fisk (Flanagan) forced to take a job at a low-grade suburban law rm after a failed marriage and professional downfall.

Many others also commented on Twitter about how they ‘loved’ the ‘hysterical’ series as they recommended it to others.

Another viewer said: “Fisk was honestly really funny. If you love the o ce, you’ll like this show. It was a delicious treat.”

But these are all late comers to an already successful domestic debut for the show, which has already had a second season – although this is not yet on Net ix.

Fisk series 2 aired in 2022, and Flanagan won Most Popular Actress at July’s 2023’s Logie Awards on the back of it.
