Brooklyn Nine-Nine
In a bustling precinct, a team of detectives led by the ever-childish Jake Peralta finds humor in the most unlikely places. Their investigations are often derailed by absurd antics, while their deadpan captain keeps things (sort of) on track.
The show’s rapid-fire jokes and genuine camaraderie make it a favorite for fans of workplace comedies. With a perfect mix of heart and hilarity, it is a celebration of friendship and the ridiculousness of bureaucracy, all wrapped up in police work.
BoJack Horseman
An animated number that delves into the life of BoJack, a washed-up but once-famous horse struggling with fame, self-worth, and addiction in Hollywood. With a mix of biting satire and deep emotional resonance, the show explores mental health, relationships, and the quest for meaning. Despite its animal cast, BoJack Horseman delivers sharp, existential humor and poignant moments that resonate with adults seeking comedy with depth and a touch of melancholy. Definitely on the must watch list if you prefer satirical, adult reprises.
Derry Girls
The swishing 1990s but against a backdrop not much publicized, Northern Ireland. The coming-of-age show follows a group of Catholic schoolgirls as they navigate adolescence amid political unrest. Armed with fast-paced, dark humor, thick Irish accents all collide to create a unique atmosphere, blending nostalgia with wit. A hilarious look at friendship and growing up in turbulent times, perfect for fans of character-driven stories and sharp, situational comedy.
That 90s Show
True to the essence of its predecessor, That 70s Show, this sequel series follows Leia Forman, granddaughter of Red and Kitty, as she spends a summer in Point Place, Wisconsin, in 1995. Alongside a new group of friends, Leia experiences the ups and downs of teenage life, while familiar faces from the past make guest appearances.
The show captures the carefree energy, nostalgic humor, and heartfelt moments of growing up in the ‘90s, making it a perfect pick for fans of throwback comedy.
Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt
After escaping a doomsday cult, Kimmy Schmidt embraces New York City with unshakable optimism. Alongside a cast of eccentric characters, she faces the absurdities of city life with relentless cheerfulness. Created by Tina Fey, the show is packed with surreal jokes, quirky personalities, and nonstop positivity.
