Shows with a sci fi touch, but not sci fi (bonus if lighthearted)

Another post here reminded me how fricking good Interior Chinatown was. It has a lot of unexpected meta or magical realism aspects, but it all served the characters and story, not to be in a genre, if that makes sense.

Severance and Westworld (seasons 1-2) give me that feeling too. But Interior Chinatown is lighter, so it’s easier to relax and have fun.

What else should I watch?

TV Shows that Have This sort of Feel or Vibe:

If you're not catching my drift, something mixing office/work with crime or corruption in some way via hyperstylised or surrealist lens. Or anything like it.

TV Show Rec: Rom Com or Drama about a couple from different worlds navigating life together

I’m looking for like a Dharma and Greg type show but more modern. Couple from different backgrounds have to meld their lives together. Could be either a rom com or romance drama, but I don’t want whether they make it as a couple to be the point of the show. I’d like something where they are a strong couple and just have to navigate these new circumstances together and adapt to each other’s lives. Any recommendations?

I like “good place” as I mentioned, “Malcolm in the Middle”, “Ugly Betty”, “ginny and Georgia”, “disparate housewives” and “Emily in Paris”.
If you have any recommendations please share with me!!!

I really want to find a comfort show

I've never had a comfort show. I generally just love ensemble casts with very different people who have learn to like each other. I have really random tastes, but at the moment I'm not looking for a superhero show just something more real life like (preferably targeting that 20s-30s age range as I'm 22) but with a consistent plot.

Shows I enjoyed and why in no particular order:

  • Young Justice - as a kid I used to love this and it really shaped the type of books/movies/shows I like. It is also quite well rounded in the sense that it has so much more to offer despite being a superhero show.
  • The Boys - Good show. Loved the political messaging and a different take on superheroes.
  • Money Heist - Good show. I didn't find it to be great, but it's definitely one that has that ensemble thing I mentioned.
  • Friends - I like how close-knit everyone is and how messy their lives are shown as. I didn't like how there isn't a very consistent story at times.
  • Invincible - Similar thoughts as with The Boys.
  • Dear White People - There were parts which felt forced and I stopped watching at season 2, but I think there was merit to the idea and characters. I also really crave casual shows with slight political messaging which this show definitely fulfilled.
  • The Good Place - I enjoyed the thought experiment, but it stretched on too long for me.
  • Limitless - A show I really enjoyed when I was younger, but I can see myself liking a similar theme if it's done in a more polished way.
  • How to get away with murder - Again, a show I really liked when I was younger. I feel some of the plot would fall flat for me now but I still appreciate the characters and how different they are despite working towards a common interest.
  • Rick and Morty - Something I enjoyed when I was young. If something similar that is more nuanced and real releases I think I'd like it more.
  • Ted Lasso - I feel the cast was a bit too widespread for me to care about everyone, but I did enjoy the show as a whole. Wish it was a bit more weird though idk how else to explain it.
  • Psych - Funny and a great amount of "weird" humor without overdoing it.
  • Arrested Development - Really funny. I wish there was a more consistent plot, but I understand why that wouldn't work the same.
  • Community - Honestly I don't remember much from the show, but I remember it being funny.
  • Moon Knight - Good.
  • Supacell - Good.
  • Not Suitable For Work - enjoyed this outside of >!the boss sleeping with one of the main characters subplot.!<
  • The Society - I actually really enjoyed this. It was a bit more dramatic than I wished but I, again, like the casual thought experiment vibe.
  • The Queen's Gambit - I enjoyed it as someone who plays chess.
  • Midnight Mass - Good.
  • Recalé - Good show.
  • Loudermilk - great main character.
  • New Girl - I really liked Nick's character and specifically the rough and sad side of him. I do also love how weird and unique all the characters are. You really grow to like them.
  • Honorable Mention - I Love LA - I watched it with a friend and it was really a guilty watch for me because it's so far from what I like. However, I really enjoyed the sort of in your face satire it has.

Shows I did not like:

  • You - Idk I found the whole concept too creepy.
  • Pluribis - Stopped watching within minutes.
  • Normal People - Felt very dramatic.
  • The Office - Tried to like it but hated every part of the first episode. Sorry.
  • Summer I Turned Pretty - friend turned it on and I just think I'm too old for that type of thing.
  • Big Bang Theory - The odd episode is fine, but I don't have any desire to watch the whole thing and follow along the lives of those characters. I'm in STEM so maybe it's just that I'm not really impressed by it all idk.

Shows I'm not willing to give a chance with no explanation:

  • Breaking Bad
  • Game of Thrones
  • Any medical show ever
  • Severance
  • Bojack Horseman
  • Almost anything animated
  • Most british shows released before the extraordinary/sex education/supacell era
  • Tv shows with a considerable fanbase of guys who enjoyed the wolf of wall street
  • Tv shows with a considerable fanbase of women who read colleen hoover

Edit: I also really like when a show hits the ground running and is engaging from the start!

Basically, if you watched White Collar for Neal/Peter, Suits for Harvey/Mike, or The Rookie for the ensemble + Chenford, please tell me what I should watch next. I'm VERY open to anything cop shows, crime, legal, FBI, whatever. I just want characters I can get ridiculously attached to.

I'm looking for recommendations because I feel like l've reached the point where I need a new comfort show fe
Some of my absolute favourites are White Collar, Suits, The Rookie, and Lucifer. I think the common thread for me is that I LOVE character dynamics more than the actual premise of the show. In White Collar, I absolutely adored Neal and Peter's relationship, and Neal specifically is one of my favourite characters. In Suits, I loved Harvey and Mike's bond. And The Rookie has basically everything I want in a comfort show . the friendships, the found-family feeling, the humour/lightheartedness, the cop element, and especially Chenford.

I love relationships where there's a really strong platonic bond like Neal and Peter or really fun romance, rather than the romance being the only interesting relationship in the show. I also recently watched Lucifer and LOVED it, so clearly I have a weakness for charismatic, slightly chaotic characters and fun ensemble dynamics. Chloe and Lucifer were amazing!!! I recently finished Castle tooo! Loved it but not as much as these!

I'm ideally looking for something with good chemistry between the characters, banter, friendships/platonic relationships, humour, and an engaging plot. A slow-burn romance or enemies-to-lovers situation is definitely a bonus, but it doesn't necessarily have to be the main focus. Anything like chenford maybe? or just like amazing chemistry!

Tlike shows that can get serious when they need to but still have that lighthearted, fun feeling where you actually enjoy spending time with the characters.

For reference, l've tried The Mentalist, but it just didn't grab me. I also tried Bones and found it pretty flat/boring, and I tried Lincoln Lawyer, Burn Notice, Leverage, and Blacklist but couldn't really get into it either. So I'm probably looking for something with a bit more personality and stronger character chemistry than a straightforward procedural.

Brain fried from reality tv what to watch now?

I finished Paradise in two days and the new season of Tires in a day (hated it), and now I'm onto I Kissed a Girl, but reality tv really just is so boring nowadays. What do I watch now? Something not too scary I get frightened easily. Also been into true crime but sometimes they just be milking a 30 minute story into a multi-season show. Pretty open to most genres, I have netflix, disney, paramount, and max
