What is your comfort TV show or film?

[Nomoreafterthisone]

Just that really! Mine is Schitts Creek - easy to watch and always makes me laugh.

Keeping up appearances

I tend to put on Gentleman Jack or Downton. If it’s a film I like Always and Hope Floats.

Film: While you were sleeping with Sandra Bullock

Friends or The Good Wife as first choices.

Big Bang, Greys, Criminal Minds, Modern Family or Graham Norton as alternatives.

Scrolled all this way to find this.

Ted Lasso is an absolute masterpiece and I have done many rewatches. I did a binge at Christmas and I'm already twitching to start it again.

Such a wonderful comforting show with so so many layers. Also have a good blub throughout.

A Place to Call Home

Shtisel
Old coronation street. From the late seventies, eighties. Jean Alexander is worth the watch alone , loved the dialogue back then. Corrie is complete and utter shite now, watched an episode the other night for the first time in years, bloody awful.
Big bang

Dinner ladies
Marvelous Mrs maisel

The Goldbergs always makes me laugh.
