I like seeing a group evolve and form good friendships. I also like sci fi and weirdness. For these reasons, two of my favorite shows are The Expanse and Severance. In both, by the end, I felt like I was “part of the team” in some way.

What are a couple of your favorites? What kind of itch do they scratch?

It's Always Sunny and Bob's Burgers are standouts for me, along with a lot of this thread.

I guess I'd categorize them both as shows where every character, however minor, contributes perfectly to the hilarity and overall vibe of the show. Really, any show with great chemistry/cohesion and ownership of the characters, where you couldn't change a single thing to make it better. Psych and Futurama are a couple mentioned that fit the bill. Others are on the tip of my tongue but not coming to me. Oh, King of the Hill!

The best thing about IASIP and Bob's Burgers is there isn't a single off/bad episode in the first like 12 and 5 seasons, respectively. I stopped keeping up with both at some point when I was up to date and waiting. There's not really a bad episode in any of those shows.

What I really like about Bob's Burgers is how they record all together and have a lot of fast quipping and reactive energy.

Oh, and Archer! At least until things really switched up.

Upon repeated viewings I’m enjoying the Archer coma seasons more and more!

Bob’s Burgers’ biggest appeal is it’s a family that all love each other and don’t treat one-another badly. I know it sounds corny but it really does have a much bigger appeal than on animated shows where they do the opposite.

I was recently watching Archer again, so I'll have to see how the later seasons hit this time around. It's one of those shows I've watched multiple times over (all the shows I mentioned are, honestly) and it seemed to fall off, but I might have just been finally burnt out lol.

And that's a good point about Bob's Burgers. It's always pretty wholesome. I almost forgot about all the songs, too. They're so good!

Awesome songs! So many great ones.
