Started watching it with my girlfriend last week, & god it’s so sweet. Over the last few years, I’ve had a hidden fantasy that I could settle up in some small remote town away from everything & relearn how to live from the ground up. Northern Exposure is great because it lets me have that fantasy without doing any of the hard parts.
Ed is the best character, obviously

my boyfriend got me to watch this show with him, (shout out to my friends for their peacock account) and it’s definitely become a needed source of comfort for me

My friend and I watch SATC and High Fidelity (2020) whenever we want to feel better about our romantic (and just general life choices).
If you like the world of Gilmore Girls, Freaks and Geeks is so comfortable to sit in. The characters feel like how real high schoolers (I dated a guy in high school a lot like Nick from this show and we all have, I think). The costuming and soundtrack is great, the midwestern vibes are comforting, and the acting is surprisingly raw and realistic for being a comedy series. Martin Starr has genius comedic timing.
Dollface is kind of a hidden gem! Kat Dennings is a gemini queen and she creates a really lush and intricate imaginary world in this show.
Community is perfect for pop culture nerds- the first season is like a lot of sitcom shows in that it takes a bit for them to hit their stride and find their audience. It does not use the mockumentary style like Parks & Rec and The Office, which gives the show more permission to be weird and far-away from reality.

I’m a musician who is totally burned out on self-promotion culture & so far, this website has felt like a reprieve from that. I would like for this to remain a place for sincere appreciation, not promotion

Someone else rec'd Jon Brion's music. That reminded me of this unaired pilot to his potential music TV show, starring Elliott Smith. Beautiful, stripped down versions of songs from Figure 8, XO, & some great covers.
