90's Trek is my go too comfort food. Especially TNG and Voyager. Less so Enterprise. And I never got into DS9 at all (fight me). When I'm looking for a random episode to watch in the background, it's usually one of those.
-
Comedy-wise, Community, Night Court (the original), The IT Crowd, The Office, Futurama, all fill the same role as Star Trek above.
-
Less often, but still on a pretty regular rotation, 80's shows like Quantum Leap, Simon & Simon, MacGuyver, Knight Rider. Just dumb shows where they have a one hour adventure and then have a new one the next week; where you don't have to stress about watching every damn episode because the entire season is one big plotline.

Red Dwarf.
The Andy Griffith Show. Wholesome, and ALWAYS funny, at least until Don Knotts left the cast. I just watched an Earnest T Bass episode and an Otis the Drunk episode over the weekend.

30 Rock It's Always Sunny... BoJack Horseman Arrested Development Schitts Creek Brooklyn 99
Trailer Park Boys. I can never get enough of the chaos
Community never ceases to cheer me up
Futurama.
I put it on to fall asleep. I'm out before the episode ends. A downside is that I've seen the start of so many episodes, but rarely the end.

Firefly
Yeah I cry a lot, what of it?
Usually, it's Parks and Rec, The Office, Scrubs, and IASIP. But I have gotten sick of those after watching most of them a dozen plus times, so now it's Community, Zoeys Playlist, and Cougar Town until I get sick of them too
Have you seen 30 Rock? And Schitts Creek? Would fit in your lists.
The Wire
Shiiiiiiiiiiit
Lower Decks
SG1, ALL 3 series. some law and order and house. 2000s the golden era of shows. and also TREK shows, not the crappy nutrek(too much kurtzman, jj abrams meddling). ISAIP (S1-12 only), 13+ seasons were just terrible and ionly fan service with cringey skits. the animated nutrek is much better than the 3 live series.
SPN 1-5, by kripke, 6+ and they made to fanfiction and made it homoerotic because the fans are fantasizing about the characthers.
IASIP... The final episode of season 16 is worth a watch.
An Idiot Abroad
It’s always sunny
I watch Friends when I just want to laugh. When I want more serious stuff I watch HIMYM. God I love those shows.
the most accurate depiction of corporate IT support that has ever been put to screen
The Wire and Luther. Can you tell I love Idris Elba?
I’m dating myself:
- Hogans Heroes
- Mission: Impossible (the TV series from the 60’s & 70’s, not the movie franchise that’s just a Tom Cruise adrenaline fantasy)
