What are your favorite shows and why? (lemmy.ml)

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?

I like your thinking about being part of the team.

I personally like The Office, Parks & Rec, and South Park. I’ve watched them all over and over again, they never get old to me. So I guess my favorite shows are in the comedy genre because I can rewatch them an endless amount of times.

I’ve tried a few episodes of each The Expanse and Severance but I didn’t get too far before I started losing interest. I don’t recall why I lost interest. I should probably give them another go because I do often hear good stuff about them.

Other than comedy, I like Industry, I absolutely loved Midnight Mass (watched it twice), Ozark, Insecure (partly comedy), Black Mirror, and I’m sure there’s quite a few I’m missing.

You might like Superstore as well. Similar to Office & Parks. Give it a couple of episodes to warm up to the characters, because the main guy is a little annoying at first.
