    Early Doors is another one I recommend to people who like Detectorists. Another slow burn, slice of life show. Definitely worth checking out 🙂

      Midnight Diner: Tokyo Stories and Extraordinary Attorney Woo are the greatest tv shows ever created. There will be no discussion.

        It's based on a art book that's very good. Electric State was based on a another book also by Simon Stålenhag.

            Wait, help me understand. I see it on cartoon hangover on YouTube still. But it does seem like something is missing from what I remember. did they remove the original episodes?

            This is a link to the original pilot on the cartoonhangover channel from 11 years ago.

            This isn't the song that made me cry btw, that one was the jellyfish hair song.

            Edit: found the original season 1! not watched it yet but it's from 10 years ago, so it should be it.

              Original Lazy In Space Season 2 here and original season 1 is in the list too.

              I really should have just linked you here in the first place, youtube is horrible these days.

                  If you're not opposed to anime: Frieren.

                  Totally chill, nothing complicated, hardly any plot arcs, pure bliss.

                    The Wire is one of the best tv shows ever made and it’s a slow burn especially in season one

                      Man how has no one said Friends? That's basically a white noise machine on loop for our house.

                      Friends is a really funny show if you skip over all the Ross and Rachael garbage. Chandler and Monica was a better love story.

                          Burn Notice, Royal Pains

                          Basically anything made during the heyday of USANetwork. “Dramas” without intensity.

                            Nichijou and High Maintenance are two that come to mind. Sort of opposite ends of the spectrum, but both are slice of life shows that are much more about vibes than plot.

                            Also if you like Home Movies then Dr Katz is a must

                              Cosmos by Carl Sagan. It a science miniseries that I love dearly, but it’s like video Quaaludes.

                              The sequel with Neil deGrasse Tyson is also really good.

                                  The Red Green Show

                                  Easy-going comedy with minimal plot, mostly there to tie together an episode of shorter skits. Some Boomer humor, but not too cringe, I think.

                                    I gotta throw Scrubs in the ring here. Skip season 9.

                                        The Simpsons comes to mind. There's usually a plot, but it's not too complicated and each episode is self contained for the most part. Seinfeld is similar with possibly less plot (it is a show about nothing after all).

                                          Yup, I don't know what I was thinking. Must have been thinking of some other show with 9 seasons. 🥸
