BillsPride12 Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 What's your one go to show that no matter how many times you've seen every episode if you're feeling bored or down you can still watch it and it brings you some comfort? It's definitely Seinfeld for me. Growing up my parents used to always watch it, I found it funny as a kid but after going through adulthood it became so much more relatable and even more funny to me. Doesn't matter how many times I've seen an episode if I'm scrolling through the tv channels and it's on 75% of the time I am stopping to watch. At one point my answer probably would have been The Simpsons(classic years only) but I just don't watch it that often these days 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bad Things Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 Seinfeld for me too. Community and Parks & Rec are also easy watching comedies, but if we're strictly talking "comfort", I'd have to say The Andy Griffith Show, or even "Matlock". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PastaJoe Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 For comedy it’s The Office and Parks & Rec. For feel good it’s Little House on the Prairie and The Waltons. For drama it’s Breaking Bad when they run it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miyagi-Do Karate Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 I used to watch Highway to Heaven as a kid. Started watching re-runs of it again, and feel like that is now my go-to when nothing is on. the other recent mindless show I will watch is Family Feud (steve Harvey edition)!

The Honeymooners Beavis and Butthead We took our grandson to NYC last summer and took him to a cool indoor amusement park/museum place. He loved the Disney style rides, as we all did, but I don’t think he appreciated the set of the Honeymooners as much as I did. 😂 He knew the sofa from the coffee shop in Friends, however. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logic Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 (edited) If we're using the word "comfort", then... The Office Parks and Rec Brooklyn Nine Nine Abbot Elementary All four have an easy-going, predictable, pleasant rhythm to them. All four have a host of lovable characters. Now if we're just talking "shows I re-watch often and never get sick of", then I'd list Seinfeld, Curb Your Enthusiasm, and Its Always Sunny in Philadelphia. But...none of the three is bringing anyone any real "comfort" any time soon. Edited April 24 by Logic 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ned Flanders Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 M*A*S*H, but only up to when Frank Burns left. After that, the show was unwatchable. Even Klinger became annoying when he dropped women's clothing and started wearing a Toledo Mud Hens jersey and cap. Some other comfort shows: Barney Miller, Cheers (the first several seasons), Taxi, The Honeymooners (the original 39), Combat!, Twelve O'clock High, Homicide, Life on the Street (why isn't this great show streaming anywhere???), Streets of San Francisco. Seinfeld had a great run but the last few seasons were painful. George becomes more annoying in each rerun...the only saving grace during those years was Jerry Stiller.
