We can always count on Sandra Oh to rock our world with each new project she shares with the world, and her new Netflix series The Chair is no exception. Unfortunately, you can go through all six episodes in just one sitting, so here are three similar shows you should check out once you’re done.
Dear White People
It’s hard to compare The Chair to any other college-set TV shows because they usually tell the story from students’ point of view, but Dear White People comes pretty close. Both shows tackle the issue of systematic racism at a prestigious university, but they have a different way of approaching this topic.
Community
Community and The Chair have a very different vibe, but they both let you dive into the academic chaos. Both shows feature a wide range of quirky characters and tackle many important topics, but Community is more rooted in popular culture and heavily relies on meta-humor.
Catastrophe
If Ji-Yoon Kim’s relationship with Bill and her adopted daughter Ju Ju happens to be your favorite part of The Chair, make sure to check out Catastrophe. Another connection between the two shows is the small number of episodes per season because The Chair was modeled after British shows such as Catastrophe.
