What's your 'comfort telly'?

[ButchersGirl]

So for me it's Gavin and Stacey and Friends. Whenever I need some comfort, they go on.

What's yours and what do you think it is that makes something 'comfort telly'?

Although detectorists works quite well too

Agatha Christie
Death in Paradise
Colombo
Any True Crime documentary

I find comfort in real life emotions. I love fiction as well, but I need to watch people's real reactions to become truly invested in what I'm watching.

Classic Corrie.

At the moment it's Derry girls, not going out and come dine with me. In the past it has been Big Bang theory, friends, sex and the city, inbetweeners and Friday night dinner.

Golden girls is really comfy, used to watch it on a Friday night when I was a kid.

The Simpson, buffy, gimme gimme gimme, father Ted, 2 pints of lager and a packet of crisps.

I used to like teen mom and 90 day fiance, but grew too bored of how they stretch things out ridiculously. Same with catfish, much drama, then every time they just phone the person

Friends
Gavin and Stacey

Oh yes, Golden Girls. I adore it.
