As in, what show do you enjoy watching that is the equivalent of eating a bunch of junk food in your underwear?
Lately it’s been the Black Clover anime.
I’m not usually an anime guy, but I loved black clover.
Shrinking on Apple TV.
Love this series.
Miraculous Ladybug. Such a dumb show, but I like it. It’s definitely a villain of the week show with a magic fix everything button.
Anything with James Spader at the moment.
Bluey. I know it’s meant for kids, but some episodes have had me in tatters because the writing is very good, lmao. Their writing team also makes a number of sweet and even poignant episodes. It’s worth a watch.
The one where Bandit yoinks Bluey back from the finish line when they are racing so she wouldn’t beat him had me laughing so hard the wife came to check on me.
I watch bluey every night. We try to limit it two episodes at a time. Poignant is the perfect word to describe it! It feels weird to cry multiple times a week lol.
It’s really funny and sweet! Episodes like the Camp made me cry a bit, though. So sweet and emotional, particularly for a children’s show. The writing can be very tender.
Not really a show, per se, but
Reaction videos.
Specifically, reactions to consumable media like videos, games, or music. And it needs to be real, like, from some nobody with a webcam pointed at them in their bedroom, not that sterile reality TV tier content mill trash.
There is a dirth of really low quality trash in this genre. It has a well-earned abysmal reputation for being low effort, non-transformative, and all too often not even remotely entertaining. I’m never proud to go looking for it. Frankly I’m more embarrassed about my YouTube search history than my Gelbooru search history.
But even so, watching a recording of someone experiencing something I love for the first time… it’s like, the closest thing you can ever get to experiencing it for the first time again yourself. It’s a piss-poor substitute, but it’s a substitute. If I’m lucky, sometimes they might even give me a new perspective on something due to the unique way they perceive it. If, of course, they bother to actually give insightful commentary at all, which is itself fleetingly rare.
Processing all this trash just to chase a phantom of that feeling, I feel like it’s the YouTube version of huffing paint cans for a high or drinking antifreeze for the buzz.
Reaction videos are equivalent to the black stuff under your fingernails
If nothing is on the TV, I’m putting on a random episode of It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia. By far my favorite show. The parody of just the worst people imaginable is my kind of humor.
1000 ways to die.
WestWorld, Supernatural, The Boys.
Bee and Puppycat. It’s just so bat shit insane while also being cozy and hilarious.
I’ve tried to watch it twice and I feel like I just am missing something about it. May be too random for me.
It kinda has a story that you’re dropped in the middle of that’s revealed as the show goes on
Milf manor
Bitch hunter
That does sound like the kind of show one would watch in their underwear.
Why is my underwear full of junk food?
I love how the title to the show makes it sound like you might be watching some low quality porn.
I thought this was going to be spam, but it’s an actual show…

Franklin. I may be an adult who barely remembers ever watching that cartoon, if I ever actually did, but absolutely a guilty pleasure show for me. Especially since I had a Franklin edutainment game (which I’ve found online and played within the past year for nostalgia reasons) and the official Franklin dominoes set growing up.
I just wish, even though I have all the episodes on an external hard drive to ensure I can watch them when I want, that I could watch all the episodes on yt, but Treehouse Direct (Canadian channel) decided that the first couple wouldn’t be region locked and then region locked the rest of the series.
I also wish I could find all the episodes to the 3D animated sequel(?) series Franklin and Friends because I actually really like that one as well. That one feels a lot harder to find all the episodes to, at least last time I checked. Especially when I don’t use the normal streaming services everyone else does here in the States.
Edit:
Found an “officialfranklin” channel, but I guarantee it’s a fake. Especially since they barely have any of the original Franklin show and only have season 1 of Franklin and Friends in the playlist and nothing else. Though, Wikipedia says otherwise about it being fake, I still don’t think it’s official.
Absolutely Fabulous.
