Can you recommend me a lighthearted TV series?

[JamieNotJames]

I love my crime dramas, but occasionally I like to wind down with something a bit more light hearted - usually half an hour per episode to finish the evening.

I've done the whole FRIENDS episodes and have loved Ghosts on BBC. I've tried The Cleaner but can't get away with it.

Can you make any suggestions please?

I have Netflix and Amazon Prime

Gilmore Girls
Schitt's Creek
Never Have I Ever
Sweet Magnolias

• all on Netflix

Motherland

Motherland

Alma’s not normal

Both on iPlayer

Parks & Rec!!

Two doors down

Superstore! I discovered it last year and now it’s my comfort TV. All 6 seasons are on Netflix.

I absolutely adored Pushing Daisies if you can still watch it anywhere.

Broad City a million times over, funniest comedy ever

I loved “What we do in the shadows” but everyone else I’ve recommended it to hated it so who knows? Also loved Detectorists and I really enjoyed The Cleaner - maybe try again?

Have you watched Bones? It's crime/murder but I find it very light, easy watching. I can often dip in and out of episodes if I'm not quite in the mood.

Wow plenty of suggestions -thanks

Have done Motherland too which was brilliant!

Good Place
Schitts Creek
Derry Girls
Bridgerton
Durrells

Parks and Recreation for the win. But also Schitt's Creek. And we've recently been enjoying Awkwafina is Norah from Queen's and Alma's Not Normal (not entirely light hearted) on iPlayer. Oh, also Crashing and Catastrophe on 4

Schitt's creek. I found it a bit of a slow burn but was obsessed by series 3 😍

agree catastrophe was hilarious too

Schitts Creek is lovely. Sweet and funny.

It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia, humour in it is a bit near the knuckle sometimes.

Superstore is my comfort watch, too! @Tiredforfive45

Schitts Creak takes a while to get into, but it’s a really lovely gentle comedy. They don’t go for the obvious jokes.
Brooklyn 99 is on Prime
I also love US Office, Parks and Rec and Modern Family. There are a lot of seasons and like all US shows and the quality tails off quite a bit. Goldberg’s and Young Sheldon on E4

Emily in Paris
I'm enjoying Atypical at the moment too

Both Netflix

Seconding Jane the Virgin & Emily in Paris & Motherland.

Working Moms

Back To Life
This Country
The Outlaws
(all on BBC iPlayer)
Kath & Kim (Netflix)

Schitts Creek is the funniest, sweetest series ever
Outlaws
Derry Girls
