Looking for a cozy tv show

DH and I generally alternate what we watch. One show more or less for him and one more or less for me.

My shows were Ask the Midwife, Downton Abby, The Crown. (But they don’t have to be British!) I’m thinking about possibly suggesting The Americans.

His shows are the endless Marvel shows (I loved Jessica Jones, but mostly just put up with the rest.). Currently watching Bosch a noirish show about an LAPD detective. It’s very good BTW.

We both loved Humans (the British version). And I wouldn’t mind a good sci fi show. We watched a few episodes of The Expanse, but it got very complicated and just not much fun.

The Americans is a terrific show- although not “cozy”. Highly recommend.

Yeah, “cozy” is not the term for The Americans! (By the way, if you have young kids in the house, this is a watch-after-they-go-to-bed show!) It’s one of my faves, although this last season wasn’t as good.

“The Clinic”, set in Dublin. You can get it on Acorn TV (paid subscription, but I think it’s only $5 a month). Also, “Foyle’s War” is wonderful. Not sure that one is exactly cozy, but it has great characters.

We’ve enjoyed bingeing on “Zelda.” It’s a nice period piece told from the perspective of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s wife and is historically interesting, too.

Not cozy (it’s actually a little scary) but I got into this sci-fi show called “Helix”.

Have you seen Parenthood or Doc Martin?

Rosemary And Thyme. Midsommer Murders.

Poldark may fit the bill. Set in late 1700, very dreamy leading man.

Grantchester. The 3rd (?) season in on pbs right now.

I love anything from masterpiece theater

I second Doc Martin. Fabulous show.

“The Zoo”, back of the scenes look at the Bronx Zoo.

An oldie but a goodie that’s “American cozy” would be Gilmore Girls.

Another is Friday Night Lights if you’ve never seen it.

The Wonder Years.

Parenthood and Friday night lights (even if you hate football).

“This is Us” and “Poldark.”

I have heard that This is Us is good.

I second Gilmore Girls, Parenthood, and Friday Night Lights.

Friday Night Lights is our family favorite to watch over and over.

I agree with those recommending The Americans. For sci fi, I would suggest Battlestar Galactica.
