    It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia is pretty funny, on Netflix. The Office is decent too, also on Netflix (US version)

    One of the very best comedy series ever made in my opinion. It's a delight.

    The Detectorists is brilliant.

    The US version of The Office eventually surpassed the Ricky Gervais version.

    Ted Lasso is nearest my wife will get to watching football.

    I assume Mrs Brown’s Boys must be brilliant given it’s popularity. But then the people of this country make many decisions that truly baffle me.

    Mrs Browns boys is utter garbage, painfully unfunny, don't waste your time. But then again, this is all about opinions isn't it lol.
    I think the IT crowd is hilarious, but others might think its rubbish and childish etc. ;)

    I would concur re: Still Game. Underrated but now on bbs iplayer. Also on iplayer is Early Doors, really underrated I suspect because its about northern folk. Also on iplayer at the moment

    Early Doors was a classic series of about the same number of episodes as Fawlty Towers.

    It was rumoured, earlier this year, that Craig Cash was considering writing a new series which would be great but maybe not as good second time round?
    It’d be good to find out though

    Now Fawlty Towers. That was pure genius and still has not lost its entertainment.

    Good shout on Schitt's Creek.

    The Good Place on Netflix is also well worth a watch.

    What We Do in the Shadows - iPlayer
    Magnum PI - Original version - ITV 4 and ITV X Premium
    Joe Pera Talks with You - Channel 4 player
    Mortimer and Whitehouse Go Fishing - iPlayer

    These are some of the most relaxing shows in my opinion.
