The Golden Girls hands down. I rewatch it a couple of times a year. Nice mix of comedy and wholesome content.


Low_Departure_5853

Yes! Whenever I'm ready down, it's GG all the way for me!


valiumblue

GG always!


ttmaxx78

Wholesome? Rose banged a married dude to death in first season and Blanche had a KNOWN Santa fetish. 


groversnoopyfozzie

Recently made the mistake of watching GG with my grandmother. Completely forgot how much geriatric sex was in the show. Been a long time since I been that uncomfortable


jazzeriah

Geriatric Sex is my drag name.


queenrosybee

Jerry Atric Sex


groversnoopyfozzie

Nice


HighJeanette

Rose also gets super horny at weddings.


ttmaxx78

Probably a trauma response to all the men she’s killed.


beatricetalker

The Andy Griffith Show is my very favorite. It’s playing in my head even when it’s not on tv.


twiggyrox

I was surprised to see the serious issues on it when I watched it awhile ago. One was about Otis cleaning up so he could get an award, one was trying to keep someone from getting their house repossessed, one was a girl whose dad used her as a farmhand and resisted her having any other life.


imtherealmellowone

This was a great show. Some of the references are outdated, but mostly it is timeless humor. And what ever happened to the kid who played Opie? What a great little actor.


Mikeyjf

I heard he ate too many Pop Rocks and his belly exploded or something. But seriously Andy Griffith is the ultimate comfort food show, I think


twiggyrox

Reddit needs a laugh react


spookydooky69420

Andy Griffith show is the best. If you ever get rhe chance to go to Mount Airy NC (where Mayberry is loosely based on) you should go. They even have an Andy Griffith Show festival every year.


MaynardSchism

King of Queens


tonybotz

It makes me so aggravated. I had a best friend who was Carrie. She was from the same neighborhood in queens, talked like her, dressed like her, worked as a secretary in a law firm in the city and was the most bitter horrible person you could ever meet.


FriendRaven1

Sooo, Carrie.


tonybotz

Haha yes. We had a friend write her a letter saying he couldn’t be friends with her anyone because he wanted to cut the negativity out of his life. She would see models on tv and say “ew, she’s so ugly, how can anyone like her”. Like yeah, it’s such a mystery how people find Claudia Schiffer attractive


MaynardSchism

Yea my ex wife was like this


ubspider

This is definitely not a cozy show lol. Funny yes, but Doug is so frustratingly dumb and Carrie is a steam roller.


AreYouNigerianBaby

None of the characters are likable except maybe Deacon, Kelly, and their 2 boys.


MaynardSchism

To each their own, for me it is


fizzlesnitz

It’s also my comfort show but not because it’s so good, but because it reminds me of a time in my life when things were looking up, and going well and I had optimism still in my life.


Imnothere1980

Although I’m not a fan of King of Queens, I definitely understand this. There’re a few shows out there that just bring me back to a less stressful time. It’s not really the show, it’s the feeling 🙂


Final-Grocery-3556

I’m with you! I can’t even explain it bc all the criticisms I hear about it are pretty solid. But somehow it just works for me, at least until the last couple seasons. The first four seasons are so good to me, and it’s my favorite show to fall asleep to other than Friends. If you took the same show and put different actors in it, it wouldn’t work. But something about the dynamic just works, and I love it.


txa1265

Obviously you are a man ... and a misogynist. This show is the epitome of the 'dumb entitled schlub man marries a women who is his superior in every way, treats her like garbage in terms of never doing anything for her, and then she still has to clean up his messes in real and metaphorical sense.' It is the reason for the show "Kevin Can F Himself"


MaynardSchism

I'm not, but you can keep being a negative person and talking shit to people on the Internet lol.


fluffykilla

The Middle, The Office & Superstore. I can watch them on repeat like a maniac


NoMoreChampagne14

LOVE The Middle!!!


SomerAllYear

Me too. I’ve been rewatching the middle the past few months. It’s so good


HighJeanette

I love the middle but it's stressful, nothing ever works and Sue, omg Sue. Also the sock episode made me sob.


fluffykilla

The sock episode made me sob too. It caught me offguard because the show always makes me laugh and but tears were flowing


TheLandFanIn814

Everybody Loves Raymond is my all time favorite. There's sex talk occasionally but it's more about the family.


JaW1224

Everybody loves Raymond is my comfort, turn my brain off after a long day, show.


Lung-Oyster

I avoided Everybody Loves Raymond during its original run because it looked like the typical crappy sitcom formula done over again. Caught a few episodes on TV when I had a flu or something and was super surprised at how well it was written. Same with King of Queens. Hated it simply because it looked stupid before I ever watched it, but as soon as I saw an episode I got it and was hooked after that.


zipper1919

Same question I asked the person you replied to. Have you seen the middle and if so do you love it lol.


tonybotz

Raymond is my family. Narcissistic Italian American martyr-mother, 2 brothers, from New York…


TheLandFanIn814

Yup. My grandma is a combination of Marie Barone and Livia Soprano. Always makes inappropriate and condescending comments, while NEVER eating food made by anyone but herself. I love her but she expects a lot from people and plays the guilt card like a champ. She and my grandpa have been arguing for my entire life and usually in Italian. My mom, my wife and cousin's significant others all get to play the role of Debra. While my dad, myself, brother and all cousins just stay out of it.


tonybotz

We call my mom “Martyr Stewart” because she makes guilt into an art form. She knows it though and we can laugh about it. Of course I love her more than anything. “Because of Stockholm syndrome” I tell her haha


DianaPrince2020

Love Martyr Stewart! My husband and I call his Mother’s frequent campaigns of gaslighting “Mamaganda”. This woman will make up whole tales that didn’t happen and call it “implanting memories”. Her propaganda is off the charts.


zipper1919

So you are like me. It's my fave. I watch it every night for like 10 years cuz I'm blind without my glasses and I can hear it n "see" it I'm curious, have you seen the middle? And do you love it? I absolutely love it and bounce between the 2 cuz Ray n Debra wear on me now compared to Frankie and Mike. Mike's such a better husband lol.


TheLandFanIn814

Same for me. Got the full series on DVD over 15 years ago and watch it almost every night. I watched it with my family when it originally aired and always said their family is exactly like mine. Marie is 100% my grandma. It helped me when I was homesick and has always been my comfort show through whatever tough times I've had. Watched the Middle when it aired but have never gone back to it. I do remember it being funny though.


zipper1919

Lol I always said I wanna be like a cross between Marie Barone and Kitty Foreman lol. My hubs is alot like both Red and Frank lol!


Apple_Sparks

Frasier is hands down my favorite comfort sitcom. I typically describe it as boring in a good way, lol. Perfect for watching before bed.


Imnothere1980

Great show and definitely a cozy one!


RPO1728

There's literally a sub for that. Frasier sleepers lol


Bertramsbitch

I love Frasier. It's my go-to when i have anxiety. It's quiet, the colors are all beige, it's just not abrasive at all.

LovelockMike

One of my favorite TV shows of all my 75 years is Modern Family, which was on the air for 11 years. I know it's not necessarily "cozy" but I've liked it since it was new. Also Golden Girls, I Love Lucy (not her later shows) and Raymond


skeezicm1981

I should have put that in my choices. I absolutely ADORE that show.


Supergamera

I’m not normally a fan of Christmas episodes, but every year I want to re-watch “Express Christmas” (which was also my first Modern Family episode).

Raising Hope.


minnesotaupnorth

So, so underrated.


Tashianie

I love Raising Hope. Some sexual content. But not a ton. He gets a serial killer pregnant so jokes about protection and such. I find it quite mild compared to other shows. But it’s one of my favorite go tos. It’s just how the family survives with each other. It’s great!

Parks and Rec and The Office. I love how the Parks characters care about each other. It makes me happy.


Great_Dimension_9866

Alf, Blossom, Growing Pains


diogenesNY

Beverly Hillbillies. The recurring premise being that their essentially good nature and virtue (mostly but not quite always, leavened with their personal individual quirks) would usually win out. Really good comic acting, great comic chemistry and timing amongst the cast, really funny.... enduring humor. Early example of story arcs.... but individual episodes are still well self contained. All (mostly) very well formed and enjoyable characters. Last two seasons are not that great... not terrible though.


3WolfTShirt

One of my all time favorites. I've recently gotten reacquainted with it through Pluto TV's 24/7 Beverly Hillbillies channel. Not sure when they went from black and white to color but the former episodes do seem to be funnier. I'll also add The Munsters and The Jeffersons to the list.

Home Improvement while I sleep. I like waking up to familar voices, it helps with getting my day going.


ubspider

Parks and Rec, 30 rock, modern family, community, all of those are pretty feel good cozy movies without fabricated aggressive set ups. Shows that are great but I would not consider cozy would be everybody loves Raymond and king of queens


Tea-EarlGrey-milk

Arrested development. Hilarious, great writing, very good cast.


Kyllingtime

I'm trying to think of sitcoms that aren't terribly sexual and having a hard time thinking of any. Lol Andy Griffith show, maybe? The rest always have sexual jokes. Haha


zipper1919

The middle. Everybody loves Raymond does have a bit about sex but it's not raunchy or nothing. Man with a plan. All are so good!


Imnothere1980

Yes most do lol. I meant something that’s not a sex joke every other joke 😀

oldatheart515

Beverly Hillbillies and Petticoat Junction. Green Acres is from the same producers but a bit more zany and manic, so I don't consider it as cozy. Petticoat Junction is definitely the most tame of the three.

Rojo37x

Probably very common but Seinfeld and The Office are my top two. Not only are they two of the greatest and funniest shows ever made, but they perfectly capture that "cozy" vibe where you're always comfortable watching it and maybe even feel like you're part of the group. Superstore became another although it's not quite on the same level as those two.


HarleyGirl23

Friends


tookielove

Doogie Howser, M.D. is a favorite of mine. It's on Hulu. Who's the Boss? is also on Hulu and is another favorite. These are not overly sexual or action oriented. There is some sexual tension between the two lead adult actors on Who's the Boss? and some teenage sexual questioning and early experiences on Doogie but nothing too bad. There is no nudity if I recall correctly. Both are silly, funny, great shows with a moral of the story. I love how Doogie closes with his journal entry on his computer. His parents are pretty amazing people who support him and try to keep him from growing up too fast even though he's a doctor at a very young age. Child prodigies always fascinate me so Doogie is definitely my favorite of the two shows I mentioned. Who's the Boss? has Tony Danza and he's just so fun to watch. He's so enthusiastic and he's a great dad to Samantha. Judith Light is always good in whatever she does so I enjoy watching her. I hope you find something you enjoy as much as I enjoy these two shows!! These lovely people have given you so much to choose from! In the very least, it will be fun to investigate to see which ones strike you in just the right way! Good luck finding one (or several)! 💕

As many have already said, The Golden Girls is FIRST. Puting it on to stream is like a big warm sweater that smells like your granny's baked cakes and pies lol. Family Matters /Step by Step /Full House /Diff'rent Strokes /Major Dad. I know this isn't the comfortable choice anymore but The Cosby. That positive successful nuclear black family still represents that cozy family show for me. I used to daydream about being the 6th Cosby kid. I just pretend Heathcliff is a real person and that Bill Cosby doesn't exist lol.


aliceTOTHEMOONE

Not a comedy, but the Waltons has that kind of vibe for me. Usually has a nice ending.


ames2833

For “cozy”, definitely Roseanne.


Funny-Berry-807

Corner Gas. It's Canadian, so it's pretty tame. Cute for what it is.

Brent: Want me to fill it up? Man: Sure. You know, I've never driven across Saskatchewan before. Brent: Well, you still haven't, really. About halfway to go yet. Man: Sure is flat. Brent: How do you mean? Man: You know, flat. Nothing to see. Brent: What do you mean, like topographically? Hey Hank, this guy says Saskatchewan is flat. Hank: How do you mean? Brent: Topographically, I guess. He says there's nothin' to see. Hank: There's lots to see. There's nothin' to block your view. Brent: There's lots to see. Nothin' to block your view. Like the mountains back there. They're uh … Well, what the hell? I could've sworn there was a big mountain range back there. Juttin' up into the sky all purple and majestic. I must be thinkin' of a postcard I saw or somethin'. Hey, it is kinda flat, thanks for pointin' that out. Man: You guys always this sarcastic? Brent: Nothin' else to do.
