'Obscure" US TV choices - recommendations please

[Tom Bombadil]

I'm looking for a new comedy series to watch with my partner, preferably with a lot of episodes to get through. I've almost exhausted the ones I watched about ten years ago

So far we've done The Office, 30 Rock, Parks and Rec, Arrested Development and Brooklyn 99. Community and IASIP she wasn't keen on, neither of us like BBT. I may retry Modern Family.

Any other suggestions welcome. My knowledge of new US sitcoms ends in about 2012, so advice would be great!

My Name is Earle and Malcolm in the Middle,

Defending Jacob on Apple + is brilliant...The bloke who usually plays a superhero can really act...

Available on the usual shiver me timbers site for the criminally minded...

My Name is Earle

Drop the e at the end and you have a winner...He's not the ex Wimbledon midfielder...

SNAP !

No I actually meant the little known remake starring Robbie Earle and set in New Malden

For those of us missing/lamenting Mindhunter, "Manhunt: Unabomber" is a lite tilt at the Profiling genre. Paul Bettany, Chris Noth, Jeremy Robb are excellent, Sam Worthington continues to baffle me, but it's a very solid offering and doesn't go down the well-trodden 'good v evil' route and is all the better for it.

Last 2 Better Call Sauls. I've been nipped up all episode.

I was under the impression there were only going to be the five seasons. Imagine my surprise* (*UTTER delight) that there's a sixth...

Pleasantly and typically quirky Finnish post-war, 1950s spy 10 parter. Finns/Russians and Yanks all tailing each other, planting mics and digging up the past.

Nicely enjoyable.

From JJ Abrams (Cloverfield, Super 8) and Jordan Peele (Get Out, Us)

It's HBO so will probably be on Sky Atlantic

Kim Wexler for President? She'd get my vote.

Really good fun, if clichéd, Kiwi/Dane thriller. Worth it.

Mostly (but not all) on Netflix:

Archer
The Good Place
GLOW
Rake
Master of None
Norsemen
Veep
Vice Principals
How I Met Your Mother
Bojack Horseman (I don't like it, but others do...)

I can't imagine what Ricky, Craig & Ralph must be feeling listening to that.

2 inspired choices especially Earl.

Veep

Bojack Horseman (I don't like it, but others do...)

Veep is must watch TV for fans of comedy, foul language, The Thick Of It, politics.

My knowledge of US sitcoms/comedy series end in 2003 or something so as for new stuff, cant help you...

I've started rewatching Moonlighting though. Its so weird and the first two seasons are great. And Cybill Shepherd is hot.

First episode:

No, it's due August on HBO, might be the same or a little while behind on Sky. I was more sharing the teaser to give everyone a heads up because I thought it looked interesting.

I’m nearing the end now of Justified on Amazon Prime with the brilliant Timothy Olyphant, Walter Goggins and Nick Searcy.

Absolutely love it, 9/10 (Breaking Bad, The Americans and The House Of Cards are 10/10 benchmarks in my book).

Season 5 is darker and more brutal, people blasted to oblivion at the slightest wrong thing said.

Thank you to all NSC’ers who recommended it.

Catching up on series 2 of What we do in the Shadows. Really like this show, probably the funniest thing on TV out here at the minute. Reminds me a bit of The Office with lots of awkward moments.
