There is just far far less community now and sitcoms tend to reflect situations that are relatable to people.
The sad fact is since the 80s the copper wire has been stripped out of the walls with regular people having to do more to keep the dysfunctional economy going. More people will be able to relate to workplace situations than having a group of friends at this point.
Hell look at the front page of reddit where there normally is a thread on how to make friends as an adult. We're just a desocialised society

Reply to I just noticed when thinking of the popular modern sitcoms vs the popular sitcoms of the early/pre 2000s, many of the older ones used to be more centered around friends just hanging while modern are workplace set. Why do you think this is? by 3kool5you
