What are your comfort shows?
 
Shows that you always watch before bed or just to have something on in the background?

My go-to’s are

The Office (of course :roll:)
Friends
King of the Hill
King of Queens (hasn’t aged that well but I love Jerry Stiller)
Simpsons (1-10)

Also, I find old episodes of the original Law & Order very comforting for some reason.

it was the office for years and years and years but more recently has been dawson's creek. more often than not, though, i go with old eps of last podcast on the left when i sleep.

ron the dial 09-10-2021 12:45 AM

maybe a bit of recency bias here but schitt's creek also comes to mind. and since i already broke the rules, i want to include all godzilla movies especially godzilla against mechagodzilla (2002).

also freaks and geeks.

Yes! Schitt's Creek quickly became one of my top shows ever

Lock Jaw 09-10-2021 01:05 AM

Simpsons
Seinfeld

Put these on in the background extremely often.

I will say that more often than not I will just watch "YouTube" clips of shows instead of the actual shows.... watch a lot of clips from Simpsons, The Office, Whose Line is it Anyways... Community...

Seinfeld a is good one too. It's usually on TV when I'm doing some cleaning or cooking and it's on in the background for sure

Lock Jaw 09-10-2021 01:13 AM

Oh yeah, add Arrested Development to the YouTube clips list....

The Twilight Zone is the most intelligent, diverse science fiction ever written.
Nothing could ever hope to equal it given how thoroughly it moralised and categorised it’s themes.

Honestly, yeah. Sometimes I watch horror movies for comfort too. Stuff that’s worse than reality can be comforting in contrast.

Seanny One Ball 09-14-2021 08:22 PM

You sound like a skinhead lol.

Sorry, this is where you sound like a skinhead.

Good News Gertie 09-14-2021 08:26 PM

I don’t get it.

Seanny One Ball 09-14-2021 08:38 PM

You should look into the history of the term before you use it.

Seanny One Ball 09-14-2021 08:40 PM

Rhiannon shave all your hair off you poser.

You might as well now you are using the terminology.

I’m not sure you’re sure which skinhead subculture you’re referring to.

Seanny One Ball 09-14-2021 08:48 PM

It is racist terminology lol

Seanny One Ball 09-14-2021 08:49 PM

This is the first time I’ve realised quite how stupid you actually are.

It is unbelievable.

You’re literally Scottish. :rofl:

Seanny One Ball 09-14-2021 08:54 PM

I am, and I didn’t say lefties never used the term.

Just more scumbags innit.

Seanny One Ball 09-14-2021 08:54 PM

Why even mention my race there btw?

Racism.

Good News Gertie 09-14-2021 08:55 PM

Ethnicity is not the same as race. :lol:

Seanny One Ball 09-14-2021 08:57 PM

Good News Gertie 09-14-2021 08:59 PM

Lock Jaw 09-14-2021 09:01 PM

Seanny One Ball 09-14-2021 09:02 PM

If you read Mein Kampf it would just be the thank you’s.

That’s your level of understanding on any topic. Page 1.

Good News Gertie 09-14-2021 09:09 PM

What’re your comfort shows, Seanny? Or did you just cyber stalk me into this thread? :$

Seanny One Ball 09-14-2021 09:12 PM
