Ok here is the situation,
I received my bachelors degree in April of 2013. My degree is a bachelor of Arts in History. I graduated with a 2.874 GPA. I am now in a position with my grocery store job where I can learn extra skills that I need to survive in an office environment. The book I am reading which has been a big eye opener is called Asperger Syndrome Workplace Survival Guide: A Neurotypical's Secrets for Success by Barbara Bissonnette. I Ordered it out of the Jessica Kingsley Publishers Catalogue.
Anyway, one of the tips it suggests is to turn the television volume all the way down or in my case laptop volume and watch the different facial expressions and try to figure out what is going on in their heads. Anybody have any suggestions for a television show that deals with people working in an office environment that preferably is NOT a comedy? At this point I'm open to effective suggestions.

The only one I could think of, off hand, is "Lou Grant," from the 1970s and 1980s.
Lou Grant used to be a "head honcho" at WJM in Minneapolis. He was played by Edward Asner, and the show was called "Mary Tyler Moore," which was a comedy.
Then, a spinoff called "Lou Grant" was created. The Lou Grand character moved to Los Angeles. The show became a serious drama.
