ScrubsFuturama. I’ve seen it thousands of times. That’s not an exaggeration.
I really should get around to re-watching Futurama. I often say Professor Farnsworth’s ‘Good news, everyone!’ to myself :-)
You won’t regret it!
Futurama is my comfort show. The wet humor gets me everytime
This is my go-to. I have the old DVDs ripped onto my Plex server so that I can hit shuffle on all the old seasons and just watch episodes at random.
The Simpsons. Pick your favourite seasons or watch them all, you can’t go wrong
Band of Brothers
It’s an annual thing for me
Mythbusters
How its made
Haven’t seen these as alternate options
I’m surprised I don’t see Battlestar Galactica or Star Trek Next Generation here yet.
Futurama
Also, Disenchanted
I feel like I’ll get roasted but, maybe Family Guy. I always understand new references and catch new jokes each rewatch
Surprised no one’s brought up Futurama yet.
Unpopular Opinion: The endless reboots killed it for me.
I dont see them as endless reboots i see them as repeated assaination attempts.
This is a good analysis of the shows life cycle where its pretty clear the show was fucked over repeatedly by the networks hosting it and its just refused to die. A case of when fans love something by execs dont.My entire counterargument is the fast fashion episode. That one was brilliant.
Yup. Just the original series for me
I was just about to comment Futurama! Really not sure what to think of the newer episodes though…
To me it’s like seeing an old friend from younger years. You’ve both changed so things are different from the good ol’ days, but it’s still enjoyable to spend time with them.
Still better than most new adult animated shows
I think the last two seasons were very much hit or miss. Some really good eps but also some really awful ones.
I felt the same way about the Hulu episodes until Quids Game, which I just straight-up hated, at first. No real connection to the larger premise, just torture porn in the form of weird aliens playing with/killing off the familiar characters.
Later, it hit me: The episode is a meta-commentary on the Hulu seasons. The “quids” are self-insert characters for the writers, poking fun at themselves. They aren’t doing a coherent storyline with this reboot, they’re just playing with familiar characters in different scenarios, and wringing out a few new jokes in a way that they couldn’t do with the established canon. In a way, it’s Futurama fanfic by Futurama writers.
From that perspective, I’ve found the reboot a lot more enjoyable. The good parts are a bonus, and the duds are forgettable.
The Fox era was great. But the Comedy Central and Hulu seasons are subpar.
Seinfeld for me.
Closely followed by IT Crowd
King of the Hill
Never got into that one
It holds up
Literally from the first episode til like season 11 where it declines somewhat but still strong
I’ll keep that in mind as I occasionally chew through it. I never really watched it at the time.
Arrested Development has such intricate humor that it takes multiple passes to absorb it all. For some jokes, the punchline for the set-up doesn’t come until some episodes—or even seasons—later. Just the first three seasons, though. Season 4 & 5 were made years later and aren’t the same.
+1 for arrested development. Took me until season 3 to realize the next episode previews were fake
Arrested Development, Always Sunny, and Archer for me. Always reliable when you just want half an hour of laughs. Although I do then tend to get drawn into yet another full rewatch.
Oh man, I haven’t rewatched Archer is ages. Now I need to
I watch too much tv:
Ted Lasso
The Good Place
Parks and Rec
The Office
Brooklyn 99
Northern Exposure
Friends
Schitt’s Creek
Sherlock
Monty Python’s Flying Circus
Fawlty Towers
This tells me I need to watch Northern Exposure, Schitt’s Creek, and Fawlty Towers.
And that you need to watch 30 Rock, Community, Scrubs, and Arrested Development.
Aah! I knew I forgot some! Excellent list!
Oh, formatting, no….
