Shows that feel likeThe Gentlemen (2024–)
If you loved The Gentlemen, the closest series we have are Santa Clarita Diet (2017), Weeds (2005) and The End of the F***ing World (2017). All three share The Gentlemen's witty and playful feel, which is what we rank on before quality.
Seen the big three already? The under-the-radar pick below is The Office (2001).
If The Gentlemen hit the spot, these will too

Nice, normal people forced to get very good at covering up carnage
The difference: Splattery zombie horror-comedy — sitcom bright, not sleek

A straight-laced type discovering a real talent for the drug trade
The difference: Suburban satire that grows messier over eight seasons

Deadpan British mischief that keeps swerving somewhere darker
The difference: Small and intimate — two runaway teens, no criminal empire

Polite surfaces hiding tremendous violence, told with a smirk
The difference: Midwestern chill and creeping menace instead of London swagger

Whip-smart dialogue and gallows humor with a soul underneath
The difference: A metaphysical puzzle, not a caper — crime barely figures

A fish out of water learning fast among career criminals
The difference: Sprawling ensemble drama with far less caper momentum

A man trying to leave the violence behind while it keeps pulling him back
The difference: The comedy curdles into genuine tragedy as it goes

Common ground: dark comedy
The difference: Trades the stillness of The Gentlemen for an angle of its own

A petty grudge escalating gleefully past every point of reason
The difference: Its dark comedy digs into despair more than style

Off-kilter comic invention with real craft behind the strangeness
The difference: A surreal inward trip — no gangsters, no estate, no deals

Witty where it counts, playful underneath

The same preoccupation in both: dark comedy
The difference: 23 years apart, and the 2000s show
