To want to know your favourite go to comedy comfort/therapy?

[BobcatDreams]

Well I was going to originally post about something horrific that my narcissist ex had done today to try and completely destroy me forever but fuck them, it worked for a few hours, I nearly slid back down that pit again but nope no thank you, nice try.
Instead I'm going to watch some comedy, last couple of years I've been watching non Brit stand ups Kathleen Madigan and Steve Hughes being two of them.
Love to know yours Thank you

Modern Family
The Office (American)
First dates
Sex Education

I fucking love Bogies, I'd say it's my guilty pleasure but I don't feel guilty at all

All box sets for me, too!

New Tricks (series 1-7)
MAS*H (series 4 on)
Auf Wiedersehen, Pet (series 3)
The Barchester Chronicles

Billy Connolly - Was it something I said?

Has me howling

Derry Girls almost always has something to make me laugh. Especially the funeral episode!

Modern Family

The thick of it

And for on-line therapy, recipe books

I started on Taskmaster back in 2020 when I was having a hard time and ended up going on to watch / listen to / read Alex Horne's other stuff when I'd finished it. If there's anyone whose output has helped me not lose my marbles completely, it's him.

I second.Sarah Millican and add Ricky Gervaise to the mix

Motherland

Oh, forgot to mention Oliver's Travels - a short series but so funny.

Motherland, Taskmaster and Schitt’s Creek

Miranda is my go to when I'm unhappy.

Then The IT Crowd, Father Ted and FridayNight Dinner.

I need to watch more Taskmaster. It's hilarious but I haven't seen the last few series, nor the last series of Ghosts.

Miranda is my go-to for lifting the blues

@WotNoUserName that was a coincidence, I hadn't read yours before posting mine! :)

That Mitchell And Webb Look
Armstrong And Miller Show
Spaced
I loved Extraordinary, more recently.

Old faves already mentioned many times. Father Ted, Black Books, Frasier….all have impeccable timing and a soothing comedy rhythm to them. Strangely, I’m not keen on The IT Crowd any more, it irritates me for some reason.

If I'm feeling down, Jimmy Carr is my go to comic to raise a smile

Miranda. Love it.

Schitts Creek
Parks and Recreation
Black Books

Yes, can’t believe it took so long for Miranda to come up! Such fun!

My faves:

Ted Lasso - just perfect for when you need a good cry and a laugh

But I always return to - Friday Night Dinner, The IT Crowd, The Thick Of It, Nighty Night, Peep Show and Motherland - could watch them for an eternity on repeat

I also love Father Ted but my kids don't get it which makes me sad!

Cabin Pressure
Radio 4

The lemon is in play (and many, many other ideas). I know it all pretty much off by heart and still enjoy listening esp for comfort.

Loved The Middle!
Missed it when it finished but found 'Atypical' quite a good replacement
