Im always changing what I watch. I have two tvs setup in my living room. I tend to game on one and rewatch series on the other. Most recently rewatched Psych, Chuck, Married With Children, Lucifer and Eastbound and Down. Psych and MWC get regularly rewatched. Likewise That 70s Show and The Office. Also while unpopular The Big Bang Theory has gotten a couple rewatches
Il often pause games when it comes up to parts I love. Or even switch them off completely when that happens. Or if i need to cook or do stuff for the kids. I just put same image on both screens for that.
If it's a new series or one that requires more focus to catch things I might have missed I watch them with no distractions. But i have a lot of simpler shows I enjoy purely due to how little attention they need and I can play games or watch sports at the same time. I feel I have so little free time between work and kids this is the best way to make it up.

I call them background shows because I'm not really paying attention:
- The Floor Is Lava
- Friends
- Seinfeld
Reno 911
RLM's Best of the Worst (yeah its not technically TV but it functions the same way for me)

Me too. Best of the Worst helps me sleep. Suburban Sasquatch is on now, lol.
One and done.
Depending on if there are reruns on also Scrubs and Fresh Prince.
My girlfriend can't fall asleep to it because whenever she has done so by accident, Rich's laugh has startled her awake.
I know it's extremely normie of me but definitely The Office.
Lately I've been watching a lot of Golden Girls though. I was too young to see it when it was first on the air and only caught tiny bits and pieces in syndication, but damn it's extremely funny and a lot of it holds up surprisingly well.

Lupin the 3rd (English dub) - It's just fun & simple. I feel happy every time I hear the theme, and I never get tired of it. Love the English dub.
Impractical Jokers - I recently discovered this show which seems to be on like 24/7. Perfect when I'm looking for some background noise.
Any kind of anime rom/com, I'm currently on SNAFU, Fruits Basket and Rent a Girlfriend. These are my ultimate guilty pleasure that I often need at the end of the day.
Also South Park & The Office.

Honestly, over the pandemic it's become Twitch streams. A lot of variety streamers put out some cozy content (e.g. CohhCarnage).
The Office, Parks and Rec, and Always Sunny are my TV go-to's though.

Same, never thought I'd ever catch myself doing it but a combination of being on layoff then sick leave left me with a lot of time on my hands.
I actually watch the show "Victorious" when I am need of something to put me to sleep. It's kinda funny, but not really laugh out loud funny and the violet and orange hue of the show is a bit comforting.
