People Like Us background

People Like Us

People Like Us was a groundbreaking mockumentary that drew inspiration from British reality TV, featuring ordinary people in their daily routines, predating the popular sitcom The Office.

The mockumentary series People Like Us predates The Office, offering a "docusoap" format that showcases ordinary people's daily lives. Actors play regular citizens, often with an incompetent interviewer who gets sidetracked or involved in their stories. The show is notable for its dry wit and British charm, featuring a talented cast of deadpan actors.
