The I.T Crowd



The I.T crowd is a sitcom that documents the day to day life of the I.T department in a large company so they are usually ignored and looked down upon.
The show falls under the sitcom category for three main reasons-Limited Setting, Character stereotypes and Running time (30 minutes).
The setting in the show is limited and usually confined to the location of the basement where the three characters work, only taking occasional ventures into the Boss' office. The male characters are both stereotypes of Nerds or geeks which is shown through their lack of social skills and love of computers. Also, the show has quite a short running time so it is easy to digest and memorable because it doesn't get boring and outstay its welcome.
