Need something to fill the Modern Family void!

Hi all,

Modern Family has been perfect for us. Don't always have time to watch a lot of TV so have loved having those cheery, 25min episodes for a long time - we're very nearly finished, argh!

Hoping someone has some recommendations for something light-hearted with short episodes that will fill the void?!

We've got Amazon Prime and Netflix

Snap @VictoriaClaire28 so following!! We did find Black-ish a good watch but I believe Amazon are now charging for it! Single Parents was also a good one but there have only been 2 seasons. The hunt goes on ..... Grin

Just have a little break and watch it again Wink

Only series besides friends I can rewatch again and again

RudeAF · 10/10/2020 16:51

Schitts Creek or Kim’s Convenience?

BrieAndChilli · 10/10/2020 16:56

Life in pieces on Amazon is very similar.

Where can you watch Single Parents @mommybear1
I fancied watching it.
I'm currently rewatching Modern Family, haven't seen the later seasons though, are they free anywhere?

I would say The Middle, but it was removed from Prime recently :( I was only halfway through - gutted.

Try The Goldbergs, its on E4 but is an american show. Series 7 is starting this week.... i miss modern family !

SimonJT · 10/10/2020 17:01

Schitts Creek

Its only a short series but special is very good

Our Modern Family void was filled by The US Office. I wanted to hate it because I’m a big fan of the original, but it’s great. Laugh out loud funny and great after a stressful day.

Recently watched “Offspring” on Netflix. Australian comedy quite funny and easy to watch/binge.

JosieB68 · 10/10/2020 17:08

Malcom in the middle, every episode on 4OD.

MisiSam · 10/10/2020 17:13

Workin' mom's on Netflix is good

Ulysses · 10/10/2020 17:28

Schitt’s Creek, The Office US and currently Parks and Rec are in the same vein id say. Offspring is a good one too.

UpToonGirl · 10/10/2020 17:32

Schitts creek and parks and recreation, both took me about a season to get into but then were brilliant. Schitts creek especially.

Also currently rewatching frasier on Amazon, still hilarious!

thebear1 · 10/10/2020 17:35

Brooklyn 99 is funny and short episodes and there are lots of them.

kerosene20 · 10/10/2020 17:39

Seconding life in pieces on amazon prime and schitts creek on Netflix. Both hilarious!!

mommybear1 · 10/10/2020 17:56

@mamapants we watched it on Sky - I think it was Comedy Central and they recently repeated it. I see it's currently on Amazon prime if you have it?

gerbo · 10/10/2020 18:00

Snap! Since the latter part of lockdown, we've sat as a family and really laughed ;almost completely!) through the seven series.....

It's such a brilliant series. I'll be sad to see it go.

As a family we'll watch All Creatures Great and Small and Ghosts next I think.

QueenOfToast · 10/10/2020 18:10

Life in Pieces on Amazon Prime is very similar and easy to watch.

Butterchunks · 10/10/2020 18:20

Bob's burgers on amazon. When we get to the last episode we just go back to the start and watch it all again.
