TV Show Recommendations
I like watching good comedies, any suggestions down in the comments would be wonderful.
I have loved watching IT Crowd, Big Bang Theory, Seinfeld, It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia, Curb Your Enthusiasm, The King of Queens, Cunk of Earth, Cunk of Britain, pretty much all of Ricky Gervais, and more shows that I'm not recalling at the moment.
Edit: I've also watched Psych, The Good Place, B99, Black Books, Third Rock From The Sun, Parks and Rec, Superstore, and Silicon Valley

I’m absolutely loving “What We Do In The Shadows”
Older shows I still rewatch include Community and Psych. Both are absolutely extraordinary.
7 0 ReplyPsych is my all time favorite show. I don't think Community stands a chance but that's just my opinion.
1 0 ReplyI think they’re still in the middle of making the fourth Psych movie.

My warm, comfy, tried-and-true go-to is Scrubs. Funny, heartfelt, an in the upper echelon of quick biting wit.
5 0 ReplyThanks for being so amazing guys. Last time I made a recommendation post on Reddit, nobody gave me any comments.
5 0 Reply- Workaholics
- The Righteous Gemstones
- Platonic
- Arrested Development
- 30 Rock
- Fired on Mars
- Shrinking
5 0 ReplyOh how did I forget about Arrested Development? Amazing show, at least for the first 3 seasons.
Season 4 was kind of a dud for me, and I didn't finish season 5.

I feel like you'd like Ted Lasso, also second the users who've said Ghosts (both US and UK).
5 0 ReplyTed Lasso is amazing. The recent episodes are a bit different, I'm interested in the development of the show with the direction their heading on.
3 0 ReplyI think the tone is really reminiscent of stuff like Four Weddings and a Funeral, Notting Hill or Love Actually. Even though it got a bit more sad this season, it's very wholesome and easy to watch.

I'm going to suggest some older shows, they may be hard to find on streaming, but they are on physical media:
NewsRadio:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Titus_(TV_series)Better Off Ted:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Better_Off_Ted4 0 Reply- Ghosts (the US version)
- Righteous Gemstones
- Miracle Workers
- Based on a true story
- Blockbuster
- The Great
- The Goldbergs
- Fresh Off the Boat
- Killing It
- Upload
Those are the ones that fall in and around the comedy genre that i recall enjoying in the last year...
If you're looking for some older UK centric ones
- This Country
- Inbetweeners
- Two pints of lager
- Fresh Meat
- The Fast Show
- Harry Enfield and Pals
- My Family
If you liked IT Crowd and have a general interest in IT then check out Silicon Valley and it you like Chris O'Dowd in particular then check out "The Big Door Prize"
3 0 ReplyGhosts (the US version)
How can you say this, when that version doesn't have Charlotte Richie in it. Not even once!
2 0 ReplyBut it's got Rose McIver in it and she's great (sidenote iZombie also let her show she's got a LOT of range)
3 0 ReplyCharlotte Richie i know.. i know.. but we do get Rose Mciver and i'm a big fan :)

Another vote for Silicon Valley. Based on the list above, my guess is that this would be right up your alley!
2 0 ReplyI've already watched Silicon Valley, wonderful show. I will check out all your other suggestions
1 0 ReplyTook up your suggestion for The Goldbergs and it seems like a pretty good show. Thanks for the recommendation.

If you like IT Crowd, then Black Books is for you. One of the best comedies of that era. Start with the Grapes of Wrath Episode.
Peep Show is also great.
3 0 ReplyBlack Books is fucking amazing. I will check out Peep Show as well.

The Good Place, Brooklyn Nine-Nine
Maybe give James Acaster's Repertoire a go if you like British standup!
3 0 ReplyThe Good Place - fantastic all the way through (except i hate the last episode)
Brooklyn Nine-Nine - hilarious for the first few seasons, but when the show switched networks it became just good not great
1 0 ReplyI've watched Good Place and B99 already. Wonderful shows. I will check out James Acaster
1 0 ReplyWell I'm glad you have seen them but we need to find you more!

One of my favorite people is Andy Daly. Check out his show called "Review" that was on Comedy Central a few years ago. There's 3 seasons of some really funny shit.
2 0 ReplyIf you like British stuff my vote is for Peep Show and Red Dwarf
2 0 ReplyI disagree, if you're going that route then the first show absolutely must be That Mitchell And Webb Look.
