Oh man, this is my jam right here:

• Scrubs
• That '70s Show
• Futurama
• Simpsons (Early seasons of course)
• Bob's Burgers recently was added to the list
• Everybody Loves Raymond
  • Sometimes you just want a stupid go-nowhere show you can tune out
• King of the Hill
• Malcolm in the Middle
• Trailer Park Boys
  • Sometimes you have to just sit back and wish you were with the boys smokin' dope
• How I Met Your Mother
  • was a comfort show, but ever since S9 I can't bring myself to rewatch

Parks and recreation is my main one, or stargate for when im feeling nerdier

Parks and recreation

Star Trek TNG and DS9. Brings back a lot of fond feelings and is my TV hug.

Ted Lasso and Supernatural

Movies: the entire LoTR trilogy, followed by The Hobbit trilogy because at that point I'm committed to the theme and I manage to still find it entertaining

Shows: the Office

When I'm feeling sick, nothing makes me feel better than watching Arthur. Yes the Aardvark.

Whose line is it anyway, Friends, Ouran High School Host Club

Gilmore Girls or Taskmaster in terms of TV shows, but Buffy, Stargate SG-1 and QI are in the mix as well.

Filmwise I would say Clueless.

Avatar: Last Air Bender

Shows: Arrested Development, Home Improvement, Seinfeld

Movies: Mrs. Doubtfire, Wayne's World, Clueless

Robinhood: Men in Tights! Any time I'm sick with a cold or flu I go and get some food and chill out in front of the TV to watch it. No matter how bad I'm feeling it always makes me laugh.

Bobs Burgers, The Great North, Arrested Development….huh do I just like various types of weird families?

Oh i have a really good one, and if you have watched it, definetly tell me because i cant find any discussion about it online. Its called Wood Job, It takes place in a fictional remote forested village and its woodworking industry. its a wholesome story really wholesome and rewatch it yearly.

Joe Pera Talks With You

MASH and Star Trek

Psych and early seasons of Castle

I know this will sound strange, but Battlebots got me through some dark moments during the pandemic. Something about watching robots rip each other to shreds really takes me away from my problems.

Bob's Burgers, Star Trek TNG and DS9, MST3K, The Great North. Studio Ghibli stuff. King of the Hill. Probably more.

Ted Lasso
Parks and Rec
Brooklyn 99
New Girl

So many people saying TNG haha. Is that show really that universally appealing or are y'all just my age?

Archer
Letterkenny
Shoresy

I like having background noise, and find that I focus better when something is running that I can follow without paying full attention to it. I’ve seen these 3 all the way through over 20 times, at least so they’re useful for that. I also just plain love the shows… Shoresy S2 can’t land soon enough.

Closest thing for me is probably Clannad

My wife watches New Girl, the Office, and Scrubs basically on constant repeat.

Apparently, going back to a "comfort show" is a sign that you might have anxiety

Elementary - modern take on Sherlock Holmes with Johnny Lee Miller and Lucy Liu as Holmes and Watson.

Always Firefly

Red Green. Supernatural. SG1. And forgive me, but for those particularly shitty days, Beavis and Butthead.

Yep. Frasier and Seinfeld. Two greats but very different shows

New Girl Parks and Rec

They're just both so upbeat and light. Although during lockdowns seeing happy people having close relationships with friends just made me more sad! Still, it was probably good to have those feelings bubble up so I couldn't keep ignoring them.

21 and/or 22 Jump Street always make me smile

Psych all the way! Shawn and Gus moments are always fun!

As a series to sit down and watch, it's gotta be Mad Men, which I've seen all the way through three or four times.

As a series to watch in bed before sleep, it's the BBC's Richard Osman's House Of Games. It's cerebral yet fun and tension-free, as the four contestants are British celebrities vying for little prizes like fondue sets, bathrobes, pet feeding bowls and the like. All episodes are uploaded to YouTube.

As a series to drift of to sleep to, also from the BBC - Gardener's World. If you decide to pay attention, it's actually fascinating and entertaining, yet the tone is always soothing. Many full episodes are on YouTube.

Star Wars ESB, Jurassic Park, Star Trek TNG, Parks & Rec.

OG Top Gear. Star Trek TNG.

Similar to this, I am always looking for good shows to fall asleep to. Typically like something that has a dark color palette, no super loud dialogue or anything, etc. Right now, I've been falling asleep to The Clone Wars animated series. Lots of space backdrops, dark colors, and I think the Star Wars sounds are naturally cozy for me.

Aside from others I see mentioned elsewhere here: MASH

Still just an amazing show. Alan Alda is wonderful.

The 1986 animated film Transformers the Movie. I can almost quote the script along with the voice actors at this point. It's like a big fluffy blanket when I've had a truly awful day.

Fun fact: It was Orson Welles's last performance before his death.

Stargate sg1 anytime

My neighbour totoro. It's my go to when I'm really down

Tng and documentaries.

I know everyone likes to shit on it, but Friends.

• What We Do In the Shadows
• IASIP
  -Ted Lasso
  -New Girl
  -Schitt’s Creek
  -Psych

Futurama gives me more comfort than any of my other comfort shows.

Usually child friendly stuff like Molang, Karate Sheep, Classic Tom and Jerry.

Other stuff like The Dark Knight Trilogy, V for Vendetta, Death Note, Agatha Christie's Poirot, Doctor Who (mainly 10th doctor)

TV Shows : Gravity Falls, Stargate SG1 and Atlantis Movies : Planes, trains & automobile’s, Naked Gun series, fifth element

Nathan for you for me.

OG Twilight Zone and DS9

One Foot in the Grave. I just wish they'd made more of them.

Amélie, for sure.

Even with an element of loneliness/isolation being central to its plot, the storytelling, visual presentation, and performances make this an interminably uplifting movie for me that soothes even on the worst of days.

New Girl. Lost track of how many times I’ve watched it at this point.

Hackers
Almost all Star Trek
The Bikini Beach movies
Holgan's Heroes

Movies: Ghostbusters, Amelie, Sing Street, Back to the Future

TV: Whose Line Is It Anyway?, Antiques Road Trip, The Joy of Painting, Rick Steves' Europe

Airplane! and/or Monty Python and the Holy Grail for movies.

For TV, I will watch Futurama, KotH, early episodes of the Simpsons and early eps of Family Guy. Not too much else comes to mind

Illusionist, Michael.
