After Pacific Heat apparently I needed to hear more of Rob Sitch's voice. Utopia feels very similar to The Thick of It, and while not as great as TTOI, it manages to smartly mine the absurdness of office life and working as an "independent" entity for the government. Every episode is more or less the same with Tony getting frustrated about not being able to finish projects and Jim coming up with some or the other excuse to shut it down. But the writers add enough variety and keep switching things up in the office (most often literally) that that repetitive nature of the script doesn't get boring.
