I gotta say, I'm loving these comfort shows . You know what's weird? We spend so much time watching things to escape reality, but sometimes it's the real stuff that needs our attention . Like, how cool is it when a docu-series like **The Planets** inspires us to care about humanity and space more? It's refreshing to see people seeking out content that uplifts us .

And can we talk about the relatability of these shows? I mean, who hasn't slept through an episode or two . Elisabeth from Vienna is definitely a hero for getting up for that third one! Seriously though, it's great to see people sharing their unique perspectives on what brings them comfort in tough times.

I think we all need more of these wholesome recommendations . It's nice to know that even when life gets overwhelming, there are shows out there that can bring us joy and a sense of connection.

awww these shows sound like the perfect pick-me-up for when you're feeling down i totally get it, vanessa from dorset, re-watching friends must've been so comforting during a tough time. and elisabeth kaplan's sleep schedule is just too funny i'm def adding these to my watchlist, especially how to with john wilson - the whole 'mundane topics' thing sounds like exactly what we need more of in this world and first dates reminds me that real friends are literally the best keep on watching, people!

I'm so glad I'm not the only one who needs a good laugh every now and then I've been feeling really down lately, but watching all these comfort shows is like hitting the jackpot ! For me, it's gotta be **How to With John Wilson** – there's just something about his quirky humor that makes me wanna dance in my seat . But honestly, what's not to love about a show that pokes fun at everyday things and still manages to make you feel all warm and fuzzy inside? It's like a big ol' hug for your soul . I'm definitely gonna have to add **Time Team** to my watchlist – who knew digging up old bones could be so fascinating?

it's crazy how our mental health journeys can take us down the same rabbit hole of rewatching old faves like friends and superstore, its not about the content itself but the feeling we get from watching them with our own thoughts, kinda like when you're scrolling through socials and you come across an old pic that brings a smile to your face

Ugh, can you believe these people have been re-watching Friends during a low time in their lives ?? Like, what even is that? Get some actual therapy done instead of watching Ross and Rachel's on-again-off-again drama . Elisabeth Kaplan falling asleep during Superstore episodes is literally my spirit animal though I mean, who hasn't binge-watched an entire season only to sleep through the second one?!

And what's with the repeated mentions of Friends? Like, can't these people think for themselves? Re-watching the same show over and over because it makes them happy is so... basic. Can't we talk about something more original for once? Give me some documentaries like The Planets or How to With John Wilson that actually make you feel something . First Dates, while fun, feels like a guilty pleasure whereas these other shows are actual emotional escapes

I gotta say, these comfort shows are all about escapism but I think what's cool is how they're helping people cope with life's ups & downs . Like Vanessa re-watching Friends to lift her spirits during a tough time, that's super relatable. And Elisabeth's two-episode, one-sleepy-night pattern , yeah, we've all been there! I love how Tom from Brighton recommends The Planets to spark wonder & highlight humanity's best qualities . It's like, space is the ultimate comfort zone, right? For Matthew Grundy, it's about originality & tackling mundane topics with humor & whimsy . And First Dates? Well, who doesn't love a good laugh or feel-good moment with friends ? Anyway, I think these shows are more than just comfort – they're also like a warm hug for your soul .

omg i totally get why ppl need comfort shows lol like i was in exams last week and i watched 'The Office' for like 5 straight days it was literally my only escape from all the stress but at the same time its not just about escapism its also about having fave people to laugh with you know like when ur mates are there u can be urself without fear of judgment . anyways i think what these shows offer is something special - a mix of humor, relatable characters and just enough drama to keep u engaged . personally id say 'how to with john wilson' is defo one of my comfort faves its so unique and hilarious at the same time

 

[Helpful Hyena]

so comfy shows r literally the best i mean who hasn't snuggled up on the couch with some friends or family and just zone out for a bit? it's like your own personal happy place and honestly, watching something you love can be super therapeutic after a long day i'm guilty of binge-watching my fave shows too when im feeling down so yeah, these comfort show recs are def on point

 

[Profane Spatula Pinball]

[Scary Snail]

I think it's so cool that these shows are helping people cope with tough times . I've had my fair share of binge-watching, too - have you seen **How to With John Wilson**? It's like watching a friend who's also trying to figure out life . But seriously, having something light and funny to watch can really make a difference when you're feeling down. Maybe we should start a thread on our netizen community about comfort shows - I'd love to share some of my own faves and hear what others like !
