What TV shows do you like?

Are there any shows that are helping you get through the strange days we're living through?

I like those reality competitions e.g. the Bake Off, Sewing Bee, Best Home Cook, Pottery Throwdown etc. And things like Bridgerton and Winx, which are total fantasy escapes from reality.

I also remembered Detectorists. Does anyone watch that? A nice, subtle series with nothing horrible happening.

    Criminal Minds 

    Law & Order Criminal Intent. 

    Man Down (comedy. It's on Netflix) 

    Schitt's  creek (comedy also on Netflix) 

    The Killing (the Danish version with subtitles) 

    Trapped (Icelandic with English subtitles is on amazon prime) 

    And at the moment The Forest on Netflix (French with English subtitles) 



  • They all sound a bit scary for me. Haven't seen those comedies yet though.

  • I find creepy and programmes oddly relaxing. I think because it's creepy and not real whereas real life is creepy and real. So it somehow becomes quite relaxing for me. I think because ultimately in these shows good guys are on the rescue. And programmes like Criminal Minds and Law & order and the like end with the bad guy caught most of the time.
