For me it's Wolf children. I watch it when I'm not feeling the best physically or mentally. What's your comfort watch?

Nathan for you for me.

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.

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.

Tng and documentaries.

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)

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.

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

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.

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

[–] CoderKat@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Half an hour, light, adult comedies in general for me. Animated ones are some of the most common in that theme.

Simpsons, Futurama, Family Guy, American Dad, etc.
