Sitcoms based on workplaces are a dime-a-dozen. Hell, this is the second entry in a row that does it. However, just because they are commonplace doesn't mean there's nothing special in them, and, boy howdy, this sure is a unique one.

Stath Lets Flats tells the story of the titular Stath, a British Greek-Cypriot who works at his father's letting agency. He's incompetent at his job and everyday life, leading to hilarious hijinks as he seeks to inherit the business from his father.

Do you like cringe-humour, absurdity, an eclectic collection of characters, and a not-so-often seen cultural standpoint? Well then, you will love Stath Lets Flats!

There's plenty to adore about this show, with its unique sense of humour coming first and foremost. The comedy is quick-paced and quirky, with awkward interactions, unexpected dialogue, and shocking moments galore. Plus, it has compelling cultural hooks thanks to the focus on Greek culture; something often underrepresented in media.

Not many people are familiar with this show, but there are three excellent seasons to enjoy if you want something fresh to laugh at.
