What makes you laugh out loud-Netflix?

I’m just coming out of a really low point in my life and I found really immersing myself in as much laugh out loud (to me) stuff I could find on Netflix really helped!

So far I’ve discovered White Gold and Boarderline and some stand up though I think I must have a niche sense of humor as a lot of the things perceived as being funny left me cold.

Wondering what makes you actually laugh out loud, or even give a little snigger?

Grace and Frankie, The Kominsky Method (sorry if it's not spelled correctly) and we loved Sex Education.

The Letdown is quite funny

The IT Crowd is on there - brilliant if you’ve not already seen it

Brooklyn 99 makes me and DH laugh out loud.

bluetheskyis · 09/02/2019 14:19

Sex Education, The Good Place, Russian Doll

Decemberly · 09/02/2019 14:19

Lovesick is really good

TawnyPippit · 09/02/2019 14:19

I was just going to say The Good Place as well. It’s very good. I have 2 x teenagers and it’s the only thing they will both willingly and happily watch with us, as well. Big thumbs up from me.

BuffaloCauliflower · 09/02/2019 14:19

Brooklyn 99. DP loved it, I didn’t get right away and now I love it too. So clever, silly and well written. Plus it definitely wins the award for ‘most diverse range of characters without making any kind of big deal about the diversity’

FilthyforFirth · 09/02/2019 14:19

Brooklyn 99 and the Good Place make me genuinely laugh out loud, so good!

applecatchers36 · 09/02/2019 14:21

Watched the good place while in labour with DC3 and had plenty of laugh out loud moments despite the pain so would defo recommend it

MeetJoeTurquoise · 09/02/2019 14:21

Yep The GoodPlace, I was snorting at one episode in series 2 so much my dh came in to ask if I was ok 😂

PositiveVibez · 09/02/2019 14:22

Another vote here for Kath and Kim

Oswin · 09/02/2019 14:28

Brooklyn 99 is very funny. Peep show is a classic.
Friday night dinner is very good. Plebs is brilliant, groomio is one the best TV characters ever.
Also agree with Grace and frankie.
