TNG is my go to show when I'm sick. So soothing!
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
I very much like your taste 🤤👍
Ctrl+F "scrubs" updoot
Haha that seems to be a very common thread with How I Met Your Mother fans. I cannot stand the ending it just makes me so mad. I have the dvd release though so it has the alternate ending

Parks and recreation
Ted Lasso and Supernatural
Parks and recreation is my main one, or stargate for when im feeling nerdier
I absolutely love parks and rec. I have it on as background noise all the time. Don't forget to treat yo self!
- Shaolin Soccer
- Back to the Future
- Jim Carrey: Ace Ventura, Dumb and Dumber, the Mask
- Aladdin (1992)
- Gargoyles
Whose line is it anyway, Friends, Ouran High School Host Club
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
Yep. Frasier and Seinfeld. Two greats but very different shows
Oh! and How I Met Your Mother. I love that show. I don't ever watch s9 though. It made me so made when it aired
Stargate sg1 anytime
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.
That sounds decidedly not strange. Battlebots is awesome.
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.
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.
Amelie is the definition of charming. I love the soundtrack
Definitely the same. I don't even like all the parts or characters of the film, but the whole makes the sum of its parts shine bright.
Red Green. Supernatural. SG1. And forgive me, but for those particularly shitty days, Beavis and Butthead.

Always Firefly
Hackers
Almost all Star Trek
The Bikini Beach movies
Holgan's Heroes
Closest thing for me is probably Clannad
Bobs Burgers, The Great North, Arrested Development….huh do I just like various types of weird families?
So many people saying TNG haha. Is that show really that universally appealing or are y'all just my age?
There's not really many - if any (I can't think of any off hand) - shows like it. It's got a bit of adventure and/or intrigue, but also drama, decent acting (most of the time), and most importantly a hopeful, non-violent message. Not even the newer ST shows (or the horrible JJ Abrams movies) can make that final boast. It's definitely in my top three go-to shows.

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.
For TV Shows
- Parks andRecc
- Workaholics
- It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia
- Breaking Bad
- The Last Man on Earth
Movies
- Anchorman
- Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade
- Original Star Wars trilogy
- MacGruber (very underrated comedy)
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.
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.
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
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.
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
- The 1960’s Avengers
- Stallone’s Oscar
- Clue
- 1995 Pride and Prejudice
- We’re No Angels (the 1955 film)
- Old MST3K
- The Bride and the Beast on Rifftraxx (“Doesn’t everyone have a basement gorilla?”)
- The Wild Wild West (the TV series, not the film)
- The Columbo series
- Pretty much any made for TV movie, especially in the 1970s (Rehearsal for Murder is one of my favorites)
