Hi, I like to watch something sinister like handmaiden tale and then something lighter after to wind down. Please can you suggest something like schitts creek, this is us and virgin river??

Shtisel.

savethewales · 29/09/2022 21:27

Oh I’m having total this is us withdrawals. Maybe scandal or how to get away with murder?

waterlego · 29/09/2022 21:30

I haven’t seen This is Us but I enjoyed Schitt’s Creek.

Have you seen The Good Place? That is wonderful (overlooking the fact the irksome Jameela Jamil is in it).

Shtisel.

I absolutely love this show, but I can’t always be bothered to read the subtitles. It’s more of a soap opera, so there are some downs as well as ups. (It’s about a Jewish family, set in Israel)

but until now I’ve never known of anyone else to watch it 😂

feckingknackered · 29/09/2022 21:33

I've seen and loved scandal, that's a favourite of mine, I really enjoyed how to get away with murder too @savethewales

Not seen that either @waterlego thank you

If you like motherland then you’d probably like the letdown on Netflix. It’s an Oz sitcom - about a new mum finding her feet. Kind of like the prequel to motherland

feckingknackered · 29/09/2022 21:36

Some great suggestions thank you
I've seen Emily in Paris too, looking forward to the new series. That's exactly the mindless kind of thing I need

Chesapeake shores, its hallmark cheese but a nice easy watch

babasaclover · 29/09/2022 21:37

feckingknackered · 29/09/2022 21:53

Gilmore Girls on Netflix. There are lots of seasons of it too. Someone told me about it, very addictive.

Also if you watch and like Emily in Paris, the Bold Type has a similar kind of feel and is also really good.

SynchOrSwim · 29/09/2022 22:06

Gilmore Girls. Cosy and low stakes but funny and witty too.

You beat me to it 😁

Offspring on Netflix, an Australian series which is an absolute grower

Pumpkintopf · 29/09/2022 22:12

Was also going to suggest Gilmore Girls Grin

I've just started Ted Lasso this evening and it has the schitts creek comedy, warmth combo. I am already won over.

Maggie (romance comedy about a psychic)
Abbot Elementary
Both on Disney+

Mogginsthemog · 30/09/2022 12:23

Only Murders in the Building is brilliant. It involves murder but is v funny. Steve Martin, Martin Short and Selena Gomez are in it.

On Disney +

ThisWormHasTurned · 30/09/2022 12:24

Second Superstore, I’m just rewatching it. Witty humour, similar feel to Schitt’s Creek.
also Crazy ex girlfriend (on Netflix). I adore this show! It’s funny, quirky, very well written. About a woman who uproots her life to live near a bloke she met at summer camp. She randomly bursts into songs (all original). It’s just brilliant and I watch it over and over again. Also IMO the perfect ending which is so hard with shows.

Second this. It’s got a real old school crime vibe too it- Murder She Wrote elements but they play with tongue in cheek.

Another Gilmore Girls vote from me too. All this chat makes me want to rewatch it- really enjoyed the reboot too.
