58. Nine-Nine!!

Sun Oct 5, 2025, 06:32 PM

Sunday

That show is the perfect blend of absurdity dialed up to 8 at minimum, (11 during heist episodes) and straight-to-the-heart sincerity.

Scrubs was also brilliant at striking that balance.

Others shows I have enjoyed include 3rd Rock From the Sun, 30 Rock, and Community. Enjoying Ghosts these past few years, but when Colbert goes away, I will be giving up that ghost. (Sorry for the pun.)
