I feel like I'm rewatching the same old faithfuls on a loop and would like to give something new a go, and love it.

Do you watch “bargain loving brits in the sun?” Dh and I find it hilarious! John Thompson does tongue-in-cheek commentary so well and seeing the cheerful people enjoying their frugal lives whilst living in caravans in the sun cheers me up.
Also “four in a bed” can be extremely funny and bitchy, especially if there’s a b&b in Blackpool featured.

Oooh, no I don't. What channel is it on? Sounds right up my street!

I'll give 4 in a bed go too. I like watching Netflix cos I have an irrational hatred of adverts. I do have sky though.

“Bargain loving brits” is a channel 5 programme - I have virgin and I think it’s on catch-up. Four in a bed is channel 4, again I watch on catch-up or just put in your search engine. I’ve got Netflix too but I don’t tend to watch much on there for some reason!

Kims Convenience and Superstore for a nice easy, funny watch. Succession for gripping, sweary rich people

Parks and Recreation and the Good Wife would fit in with what you've listed.

I like Man Down, Friday Night Dinner and Cuckoo like you so you might like GameFace. It’s Roisin Conaty’s sitcom and I enjoyed it.

Motherland is really good, quite a black comedy. 1st series is on Netflix but I’m not sure the second is unless it’s on iPlayer? I had to buy it on Amazon when I wanted to watch it again.

I enjoyed This Way Up with Aisling Bea and Sharon Horgan (also Catastrophe if you haven’t seen that is really good).

I need to watch Schitt’s Creek.

If you like the glossy ridiculousness of Suits you might like How To Get Away With Murder. Five of the six seasons are on Netflix at the moment.

Well it seems we like a lot of the same things Grin. Do you like Julia Davis? I loved Nighty Night, Camping and Sally4Ever. They are cringey, watch-through-your-hands tv but so funny.

I also binge watched Back with the 2 main actors from Peep Show and that was really good.

Ghosts on BBC is really good, funny but moving too.

Me & DP watched Camping on Sunday. I've seen it before, it's totally cringe.

Not seen nighty night yet, DP is catching up on series 1 of back so I can watch series 2.

I've seen a few of those mentioned upthread but there are some new ones I've not seen.

Just about to watch bargain brits in the sun. I'll report back.

How about Below Deck? Such entertaining easy watching. Very addictive.
Also I just finished Love Life and it was so good. It was originally brought out on Netflix called Scrotal Recall! What a name 😂
