I need something not as terrible & dark to watch, and I have no idea where to start. Something uplifting or at least where the body count is under 50%, and on Netflix or 'Zon Prime.

Kimmy Schmidt was briefly funny in S1, but no.

  1. @jack @mdhughes YES YES YES YES YES... for The Detectorists. Get the box set, 3 series (6 eps each) plus the Christmas special that came after series 2. I dare you not to love the theme tune. All of the characters, even the minor ones, are portrayed brilliantly. The ending is perfect. Some of the jokes are British culture specific, but the majority is scenario dependant and will 'translate' to US sensibility easily. I'd love to see more, the characters are great, but I don't want them to make any more. Be like Fawlty Towers - what they've done is perfect.

  2. @mdhughes The Good Place, maybe. I wanted to hate it but couldn't. Otherwise, my favorite series from the past several years has been "The Detectorists". Odd, but I loved it. It's like the opposite of everything else on T.V.
