To ask what I should watch?

[Sleepersausage]

I'm terrible at watching TV, especially finding something new. I have a poor attention span and always double screen. DH out tonight and I want to watch something with my dinner, something lighthearted, funny and feel good with half hour long each episodes.

For example I like this country, Ghosts, fleabag, what we do in the shadows, motherland. I have seen most of the classics like father ted, ab fab, peep show etc. I keep seeing colin from accounts pop up, is it any good? I don't like cringe comedy, for example that not going out show which often seems get prime time on a Friday night, or Mrs brown's boys.

Would love some ideas!

Try workin Moms or friend from college on Netflix

I love the programmes you listed, and really enjoyed Colin From Accounts, so give it a go! Have you seen Flight of the Conchords? I think you might like that.

The IT Crowd? ‘People Just do nothing’ is v funny too (filmed mockumentary style)

If you like American then highly recommend ‘modern family’ and the American office. Both hilarious and easy to watch half an hour episodes

Kaos on Netflix, it's a retelling of greek myths/gods. Jeff Goldblum is Zeus, Billie Piper is Cassandra, it's so chaotic. I'm three episodes in and really enjoying it.

Colin from Accounts is good. Its standard Aussie humour, same as Fisk on itvx.

Or watch Toast.

Thanks, see those and I would prefer British to American. I haven't watched modern family but I do hear a lot about it

Have you heard of Mum? Lesley Mannville stars & the writing is funny but also moving.
Others we like are Two Doors Down, W1A, TwentyTwelve & Rev. All BBC so should be on iPlayer. We haven't seen Colin from Accounts series 2 yet but enjoyed the 1st series.
I don't think you can get The Kennedys (Katharine Parkinson) but have a look - one of our favourites.
Hope you find something you like!

Hullraisers - Channel 4 on demand, it’s brilliant, also two seasons to chew through!

Another vote for Hullraisers - made us laugh out loud!

Motherland? Or that new thing on sky from the makers of brassic they’re only 30mins.

American is indeed absolute toss, but Aussie is similar to ours. Deadpan, natural, sweary.

I reckon you'd love Colin, or Fisk.

Motherland is brilliant.

We’ve just started Kaos on Netflix.

If you like Ghosts maybe try Yonderland from the same team, though I don’t know where it is available.

If you want “real life” and funny rather than sit-com try Mortimer & Whitehouse Gone Fishing or even old series of Taskmaster.

Our Flag Means Death

www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p0dk8t20

Taskmaster is a bit of a ritual in our house 😂 though we missed it last night but Dh might be peeved if i watch it without him

Have you watched Derry Girls?

Derry girls is always worth a rewatch

Ooh yes I watched some of that on a plane recently!

The Cleaner it's on BBC iPlayer

I haven't watched Derry girls start to finish but seen bits here and there, I could watch that

Friday Night Dinner
Breeders
Workin Moms

Loudermilk on Netflix

OP, just thought of Murder in Successville - its so random and is brilliant. Try the Jamie Laing one first. Vicky Pattison is good too.

Peep Show

Toast of London

I would like to recommend Daddy Issues on BBC iplayer.
It's really funny.

Hmm haven't heard of that one

Colin from Accounts is great, and it’s on IPlayer
Ted Lasso - Apple TV I think
Only Murders in the Building (Disney plus)
Modern Family
New Girl
Gavin and Stacey

Totally Completely Fine on ITVX - quite a dark comedy but very funny
