Remember BITD when you'd just put the TV on and watch something for a bit in the evening because you were knackered and just wanted some down time?
Now you've got to fuck around and search for something. Almost everything in your list of recommendations is either violent, intense, addictive, or some combination of those.
I want something that if on, I'm not going to miss out by cooking dinner or painting the skirting. If for example we watched Mr Inbetween, I would require it to be paused or not be watched if I'm doing something. Whereas, as enjoyable as Community was, I didn't generally miss out by missing an episode.
Does that explain it better?

I do find that almost everything on Netflix is the same. A lot of the movies are just the same story, they just change the actors and locations (even a lot of the foreign language ones are just basically remakes). Everything is made the same way, they all feel the same.

Masterchef. Watercolour challenge. Bake off. Surely that's the primary use-case for these sort of shows?

Bobs Burgers
What We Do in the Shadows (does have a bit of an ongoing plot line but could be drop in drop out I think)
This Country (short)
People Just Do Nothing
The James May Amazon programs are quite fun ('Oh Cook...' and 'Our Man In') -
Buffy.
You know you want to.

Isn't this why all the Seinfeld is on Netflix?

Hmm I suppose. I guess I don't watch TV like this (anymore?). But in terms of a suggestion, I'd always go for the Simpsons (seasons 1-10!)

I'm confused by this half watching TV concept tbh
