I've really been enjoying Resident Alien. It kept being advertised to me and I finally caved. Alan Tudyk plays an alien trying to be human so well.

I've not heard of that what platform is it on?

[-] Schal330@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

I'm in the UK and it is on Netflix. I believe it's a syfy show. I think there are 4 seasons now but only S1&2 are available on Netflix here.

Ooooh good tip thanks 😊

I like that show but I skip all the parts where Alan Tudyk isn't in the scene, the story arcs without him are like a soap opera.

Recently decided to go back and watch Malcolm in the Middle. I watched it some when it first came out, and I kind of liked it. As a parent, it hits differently, and I like it a lot more.

ETA: as a new show, I really enjoy Hacks.

I'm really into Abbott Elementary atm

[-] Nasan@sopuli.xyz 2 points 2 months ago

AP Bio is a good one that's also set mostly in a school. I tried a few episodes of Abbott Elementary and it didn't reel me in the same way, I need to go back and finish a season to give it a fair shake.

Not heard of that thanks

Ghosts (US). The reason I'm watching the US version and not the original UK version is that I followed Rose McIver there from iZombie. I'd like to check out the UK version but I'm not sure how closely the US version follows it and I don't want spoilers.

Other than that, I think I get most of my comedy from cartoons these days. Like Harley Quinn or Hazbin Hotel or whatever.

[-] d00phy@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

The UK version won’t spoil the US version. The two storylines diverge pretty quickly. I saw the UK version first, and like it better.

[-] Zero22xx 3 points 2 months ago

Ah, thanks for the being the first person ever to let me know after mentioning that I'm unsure how similar the two are, on any platform. Glad to hear it, I'll definitely add the UK to my growing watch list then.

I actually watched the first episode of The Inbetweeners yesterday and I loved it. I saw my teenage self more times than I care to admit in that episode.

[-] slaneesh_is_right@lemmy.org 3 points 2 months ago

I rewatched it the other month, together with peep show. Suddenly i accidentally dowloaded the american version of Inbetweeners and ho-ly shit, that is baaaad

[-] oldfart@lemm.ee 2 points 2 months ago

10/10 looking forward to my 3rd rewatch when i forget the gags

Is there a word for comedy that makes you cry not from laughing?

[-] hypnicjerk@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

remember when they tried an action movie block a few years ago?

PokerFace, Laid, and Krapopolis

[-] baggins@beehaw.org 3 points 2 months ago

Malcolm In The Middle - watching it (yet) again from episode 1.

[-] Shape4985@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 months ago

Kill tony if you are counting stand up comedy.

For sitcoms i will always keep rewatching its always sunny in Philadelphia and the office

[-] ApollosArrow@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

What We Do In The Shadows.

[-] slaneesh_is_right@lemmy.org 2 points 2 months ago

Our flag means death is also great.

[-] fistac0rpse@fedia.io 2 points 2 months ago

I Think You Should Leave, followed by the forever classic Peep Show. Also Gary and his Demons for an animated show

Carmelo said your face looks like a clock

Rick and Morty, it's dark, it's obnoxious, it's VERY intelligent while VERY lowbrow. There's character arcs and growth. It's hands down the best comedy on TV right now.
