Introduction

In this chapter, the hosts discuss sitcoms about work and how they can provide insights into the changing nature of work and representations of work. They mention a spin-off episode they did on comedy and explain that they will be discussing different sitcoms set in the workplace. They also mention the trend of shows featuring talking heads reminiscing about the past and make a reference to an old candy called Spangles. The hosts express their intention to include both nostalgic elements and social analysis in the discussion.
