Your entire post, seems to be describing Nathan Barley (British TV Series). It is evergreen content and a hidden gem, with a then unknown, all-star cast and co-written by Charlie Brooker of Black Mirror fame. I will not link anything, in case you decide to seek it out; you will laugh and/or cringe, at least once!
The vast majority of them are written by one guy, the shows creator, Charlie Brooker[1]. He's a UK comedian who has written a number of great shows such as "Screenwipe"[3] (a comedy documentary about the TV industry), "A Touch of Cloth"[4] (crime drama satire) and "Nathan Barley"[5] (which pokes fun at the London hipster scene and was co-written by Chris Morris[2] who is another UK TV legend)
