Well yeah, you wouldn’t make it exactly the same, but why couldn’t you make a similar show about a modern group of friends? How I Met Your Mother and New Girl are two shows I can think of that did exactly that after Friends ended.
It’s interesting how How I Met Your Mother started one year after Friends, but at least to me it seems like there hasn’t been any show that picked up the legacy of those two shows.
Parks and Rec ended a year after How I Met Your Mother, The Office a year before. It could’ve arguably went on to New Girl (ended in 2018) or Brooklyn Nine-Nine (ended in 2021). At the moment live action sitcom is kind of dead.

The legacy went to The Office and Parks and Rec.
I don’t know who currently holds the Legacy. South park?

Brooklyn99 is a good call.
They are trying to resurrect the genre with The Paper, but I’ve not seen it so can’t comment.
