So many great things. Even the later episodes even if it's no longer IT much

Sort of relaxed, slow-paced, not a ton of plot.
Home Movies (cartoon)
Schitt's Creek
Corner Gas
Painting/Fishing with John
Father Ted
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).

It ends at season 8, there's no season 9
Yup, I don't know what I was thinking. Must have been thinking of some other show with 9 seasons. 🥸

I'd argue anything is a slow show if you watch it in a slower cadence. Our current lunch run rotates between the following shows on different weekdays:
- I Love Lucy
- Parks & rec
- Mary Tyler Moore
- Only Fools & Horses
- Corner Gas
- All in the family
- Big Train
I didn't grow up in North America and have never seen some of these older "classics", so its been fun. Cheers was in there for awhile, but we noped out in S6 when the stories got too silly.
Corner Gas is a favorite of mine

Rewatching Malcolm in the middle, has a lot of the same comedy style, I'm willing to bet same writers. Good shit all around.
Sometimes I don't understand downcotes.
Malcolm in the middle is one of the best series ever.

I saw someone else mentioned Kim's Convenience which is also on my list.

Burn Notice, Royal Pains
Basically anything made during the heyday of USANetwork. “Dramas” without intensity.

RP was interesting take on a doctor-esque show, too bad i lost interest when they did a wierd hiatus between the final season.
