    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.

    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’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.

    Grimm.

    It’s not technically a comedy show, but the various attempts of people in it to speak German convincingly have me rolling on the floor.

    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.

    It’s been a good while since I watched a comedy show, but I love The IT Crowd.

    Edit: Silicon Valley was fun too :D

      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.

    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.

      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.

        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.

    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.

Share a story, ask a question, or start a conversation about (almost) anything you desire. Maybe you’ll make some friends in the process.


RULES (updated 01/22/25)

  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling. To be concise, disrespect is defined by escalation.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible. You won’t be punished for trying.
  3. Avoid controversial topics (politics or societal debates come to mind, though we are not saying not to talk about anything that resembles these). There’s a guide in the protocol book offered as a mod model that can be used for that; it’s vague until you realize it was made for things like the rule in question. At least four purple answers must apply to a “controversial” message for it to be allowed.
  4. Keep it clean and SFW: No illegal content or anything gross and inappropriate. A rule of thumb is if a recording of a conversation put on another platform would get someone a COPPA violation response, that exact exchange should be avoided when possible.
  5. No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc. The chart redirected to above applies to spam material as well, which is one of the reasons its wording is vague, as it applies to a few things. Again, a “spammy” message must be applicable to four purple answers before it’s allowed.
  6. Respect privacy as well as truth: Don’t ask for or share any personal information or slander anyone. A rule of thumb is if something is enough info to go by that it “would be a copyright violation if the info was art” as another group put it, or that it alone can be used to narrow someone down to 150 physical humans (Dunbar’s Number) or less, it’s considered an excess breach of privacy. Slander is defined by intentional utilitarian misguidance at the expense (positive or negative) of a sentient entity. This often links back to or mixes with rule one, which implies, for example, that even something that is true can still amount to what slander is trying to achieve, and that will be looked down upon.
