Parks and Rec, and Letterkenny, for me. Two of my absolutely most favorite shows. Both are ridiculous in the own way, but overall uplifting and positive.

Blackadder (Not series 1)

I watch too much tv:

Ted Lasso

The Good Place

Parks and Rec

The Office

Brooklyn 99

Northern Exposure

Friends

Schitt’s Creek

Sherlock

Monty Python’s Flying Circus

Fawlty Towers

[–] [email protected] 7 points 4 days ago (1 children)

This tells me I need to watch Northern Exposure, Schitt’s Creek, and Fawlty Towers.

And that you need to watch 30 Rock, Community, Scrubs, and Arrested Development.

Oh, formatting, no….

Monkey Magic

Any of the first 39 of the 52 episodes, any time, any year.

All time classic!

Babylon 5.

Every time I watch it I’m stunned at how relevant it still is.

Lost track of how many times I've looped Seinfeld.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago

I've rewatched Haven several times. I love everything about it, the characters, the acting, the writing, the music, and the overall vibe. It somehow manages to be tragic, terrifying, and wholesome, all at once.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 days ago

Spaced from Simon Pegg and Friends is probably the series i have rewatched the most, was just going to watch it again this week with a friend, it's been a couple years, but it always is good

Seinfeld is a more "family friendly" option.

But Curb Your Enthusiasm can be put on an endless loop, and I'd still laugh my ass off at every episode.

Regular Show has been one of my go-to rewatches to put on at night.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Deadwood, Californication, MASH, Carole Burnette

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

I just watched Deadwood and I was so mad that the story just ended leaving everything open after season 3. (Travoltapulpfiction.gif). Season 4 never happend thanks to HBO being HBO. The tv movie (2019) wrapped the story but just wanted to inform about this to other first time watchers.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

Early 20 century comedy. Laurel and Hardy, Harold Lloyd, Marx Brothers, and all the rest. Not technically a series; sue me.

King of the Hill

  • Friends
  • Golden Simpsons Era
  • Futurama
  • Star Trek TNG/Voyager
  • X-files
[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 days ago

I have a hard time watching any sitcoms. I can do one watch through but then I feel like I know all the joeks already, which is weird, because that is not an issue with me for futurama for example. Have to agree about TNG

"Gravity Falls"! Great to watch with the kids, too. (:

[–] [email protected] 15 points 5 days ago

Many good series mentioned, I want to add: Community

[–] [email protected] 26 points 5 days ago

Bob’s Burgers

I like how every single character is incredibly weird in at least one way, but their weirdness is usually a source of joy and hardly ever used as the butt of a joke.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 5 days ago (2 children)

Venture Bros

Seinfeld

Ken Burns' Baseball

Firefly

M.A.S.H.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 4 days ago (1 children)

It’s a gorram shame how few Firefly episodes there are.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Agree, but also think it might kind of be a part of what makes it great. Didn't go so long to get ruined. Gave us just enough to love it and imagine what could have been. Everyone gets to have their own fantasies of where it might have gone next.

I love to turn on the 24-hr adult swim of venture bros and just drop into an episode.
