I've been really loving the British show Taskmaster.
Basically you take a bunch of comedians and have them perform various inane tasks. Some of my favourites are:drive this barge down a canal and spear 5 rubber dinghies with a lance attached to the barge. Fastest wins. Or draw the rainbow with the correct colours. In the dark. There's often some tricks in these tasks and watching the contestants figure out their own way to solve the task is the best part of the show.
Taskmaster and would I lie to you are staples in my playlist. Also 8 out of 10 cats does coutdown is good, but not a lot on youtube.
It's very good. The international versions are good too, as is Junior Taskmaster, surprisingly.
I have been watching Taskmaster New Zealand, and I remember thinking they had one of the funniest Taskmaster moments ever, but I can't recall what it was now!
It's really fun, but a warning I have found it to be more vulgar than the UK version. Very funny still but perhaps less appropriate for all ages.
BRACE! BRACE!
Taskmaster has been my go-to happy show for the last several months. It's so good.

After watching every Taskmaster season so far, I’ve moved onto Would I Lie To You, plenty of compilations on YouTube but full episodes are paced better, can’t recommend it enough. Although it’s a panel show so not as varied as Taskmaster, but some similar comedians & panelist’s & some funny stories to enjoy…
I discovered cats does countdown during the pandemic and holy shit, a show with anagrams, math problems, and comedians? It’s perfect
