Hello

I'm after some recommendations for really good, funny series that you've watched recently on Netflix or Prime? It's been ages since I've seen something which has given me full belly laughs.

I'm not too keen on slapstick comedy or animations, but open to anything else.

Thanks

What we do in the shadows, it's like the Office but with vampires.

MrsPMT · 25/01/2020 20:09

Another one for Derry Girls, also enjoying Schitts Creek, and loved Gameface.

We’re just re watching The Mighty Johnsons.

Norse gods in New Zealand. Laugh out loud funny at times.

Blush didn't realise I'd posted first one

EmmaC78 · 25/01/2020 20:16

This Country and Nighty Night on iPlayer.

buckeejit · 25/01/2020 20:17

@AnyFucker have you seen camping? Amazing. Anything with Julia Davis is fab.

Not much exposure but Getting on with Jo Brand is great.

We're watching Seinfeld. 20+ years later and still love it.

WendyMoiraAngelaDarling · 25/01/2020 20:19

"Better Things" and "Defending The Guilty". Understated, dry humour rather than obvious slapstick stuff.

MargotMoon · 25/01/2020 20:22

Yy to What We Do in the Shadows. Best film of the last 10 years. The tv series was patchy but a few episodes were brilliant

yellowallpaper · 25/01/2020 20:23

The Goes Wrong Show. Laugh out loud and the kids love it too

Lucylivesinamushroomhouse · 25/01/2020 20:29

The Office (US version) on amazon prime
Fleabag and Motherland on iPlayer
The Windsors on all4 (possibly not to everyone’s taste but we find it hilarious)

Ledehe · 25/01/2020 20:41

Brooklyn Nine Nine is on Netflix and is brilliant. Series 6 isn't on there yet but season 7 will be on E4 soon

HaHaVeryBunny · 25/01/2020 21:11

Gameface
This Country
People Just do Nothing
Derry Girls
Drifters
This Time with Alan Partridge

They all are either on the 4Player or BBC iplayer.

losingmymindiam · 25/01/2020 21:31

The Goes Wrong Show is hilarious!

IHadADreamWhichWasNotAllADream · 25/01/2020 21:39

Taskmaster is a guaranteed source of belly laughs.
Goes Wrong Show is worth a try - it’s a bit marmite.

Geekster1963 · 25/01/2020 21:43

Another vote for Derry Girls, very funny. The Middle as someone said upthread is good too.

midsomermurderess · 25/01/2020 22:05

Recently, Living With Yourself on Netflix.

buckeejit · 25/01/2020 22:19

I love the show that goes wrong too-we went to see the play that goes wrong last year (dh, me & pil), & dc were really interested in hearing about it & love this show!

Gogolego · 25/01/2020 22:21

Iplayer instead but "the goes wrong show" had me in stitches
