Most recommendation threads are filled with the same shows that premiered in the 2000's.

    I'm also simply curious about the fate of the format. At this point it seems very possible to me that the sitcom didn't survive the switch to streaming. Podcasts are a likely assassin too.

    The premier dates of 2.5 men and the BBT were also about 20 years ago.

      Idk, people still binge watch the office, parks and rec, Seinfeld, etc. because of streaming sites. For a newer example, Ted Lasso is a sitcom which embodies the streaming aesthetic (easy, vanilla, palatable, anesthetizing).
