Are there any other shows out there of this sort of lighthearted nature, yet made with quality writing, out there?

It feels like a lot of recent things we’ve watched has been a bit grim and/or relies on spectacle rather than telling a good story and working a few jokes in along the way … the world is on fire, I’d like to stop it and get off, if only for a few minutes at a time.

    If you’re just looking for something wholesome and entertaining, Schitt’s Creek is probably a good one.

    I’ve heard Ted Lasso and Kim’s Convenience have similar wholesome vibes, but haven’t watched either.

      Ted lasso is great after the first, very raunchy, episode. Kim’s convenience ranges from curb your enthusiasm awkward to modern family wholesome.

      Schitts Creek and the good place tower above everything.

      Op you may want to try Firefly, or for a much lesser known show check out “galavant” it’s one of my favorites
