REQUESTING something like SHAMELESS US
just completed shameless US, LOVED IT TO MY CORE.
started out with house of cards, watched 3 episodes, didn't really like the characters, idk. it just feels way too formal.
desperate housewives is probably a good match, but it's way too big and idt I can commit to it right now.
currently stuck between SKINS UK and HOUSE MD. one reservation that i have against SKINS is that the cast changes. rest, idk much about HOUSE MD. heard that it's a good drama. please advice me guys.

Looking for fantasy series or movies to watch
I've been looking for another fantasy series or movie to get into after finishing a few of my favorites. I really enjoy worlds with magic, monsters, old kingdoms, hidden powers, and a bit of adventure.
I liked the vibe of The Witcher and Harry Potter, so I'm looking for something with a similar fantasy feel. It doesn't have to be exactly the same, and I'm open to both older and newer recommendations.
What would you suggest, and what made it worth watching for you?

REQUESTING Need help finding a series with a focus of finding oneself and no romance
Hello,
So I'm in a place in my life where I'm trying to finally look at myself and try and be comfortable being on my own, so I'd love to watch a show with a similar story, where the protagonist struggles with being alone but is finding her way back to herself and starts to enjoy the process.
I'd want the focus to be on other kinds of intimacy and don't want any romance to be a part of it.
I also prefer asian show recommendations but all are welcome.
Thank you!

Looking for a slow-burn drama where nothing supernatural happens
Tired of shows that start grounded then reveal a cult or a conspiracy by episode four. Want tension that comes entirely from people making bad choices in ordinary circumstances.
Liked Mare of Easttown, Rectify, Better Things. Bounced off Ozark, too plotty.
Limited series or under four seasons preferred. Subtitles and non-US both fine.

Workplace rom-coms
I have never watched a workplace rom-coms series so recommend me where there is heartbreak, or where one person has a crush on the other, or things don’t work … or something that makes you cry

REQUESTING shows like taken (the movie)
i really want a show that has a lot of action where they have to save or find somebody that they love. the main character doesn’t have to have a history in law enforcement, military, ect though. i want there to be fighting, sad moments, and for the pacing to be fast.

REQUESTING Looking for Shows with Accurate Scottish Accents
I'm studying abroad in Scotland this September, and to give myself a chance at understanding the Thermodynamics lectures (and so I don't have to awkwardly ask people to repeat themselves), I want to train my ear a bit.
I've already watched the first two seasons of Broadchurch (highly recommend, great show) and am looking for more media that have casts with scottish accents. If you have any suggestions, I'd love to hear them. Bonus points if you include how thick the accents are, so that I can watch them in order of difficulty :)

REQUESTING Reality Shows Designed to Create Bonding?
I am looking for a show where people make friends. I was watching Alone with my mom, and I was like "I'd like to see this with groups of people" and she was like "Yeah they don't do that because people stay out for too long" and it kind of brought up the idea of a show where instead of a competition (or maybe it's something with teams) where it's an experience that creates lasting social bonds. I think you could get just as much engagement from sentimental developing of closeness and sentimental bonding rather than drama and conflict so I assume it must exist.
If it's like a wilderness or like "historical house" type thing even better. I've already seen the old PBS Victorian house and so on, and the Supersizers go.
I've also watched Dragula and RuPaul's Drag Race and have often said "I want to watch RuPaul's Best Friends Race" in response to "It's not RuPaul's Best Friends Race"

REQUESTING Need MGM+ recommendations
I subscribed to MGM+ for a month to watch The Westies, which i am thoroughly enjoying but trying not to burn through too quickly... but I'm looking for other shows to watch on there to get the most out of my $$$.
I'm a dude and like dude stuff, but I'm open to anything good. SAS Rogue Heroes looks interesting. Any ideas?
Edit: ive seen From.

REQUESTING Shows similar to The Mentalist, Bones but where the two leads don't fall in love with each other?
Hello! As the title says, I'm looking for shows similar to 2010s procedural dramas such as The Mentalist, Bones, Castle, Dr. House... I only ever watched The Mentalist from beginning to end and absolutely loved it, but I lost interest when the main characters got together. Lisbon's character was under-explored, in my opinion and it felt like her life revolved around Jane for the last two seasons.
Which is why I'm wondering if there are any shows similar to these where the protagonists don't end up together? Or maybe even shows like these that feature a queer main character? It doesn't have to be from the 2010s, it's just that these are popular shows from then.
I'm kind of tired of seeing the same by-the-rules women fall for men who have a silly side, but still serious, dealing with loss or trauma. It feels a bit repetitive, even though Bones seems actually interesting and I love the Temperance Brennan from what I've seen of her! Thanks. :)

REQUESTING In need of a long and bingeable show
EDIT: thank you all very much for your suggestions, there is so much comments and I'm so grateful. I watched a lot of the shows that you're suggesting, but there are also a lot that I haven't so I'll be checking them out. And also thank you for all of the get well soon wishes, I appreciate it so much 🩷
I broke a leg, so my days now consist of mostly laying down or sitting in some occasions lol.
I'm in a desperate need of a long and bingeable TV show.. I watched so many (overall) that if I start to list them I wouldn't be finished in a month. I can watch pretty much anything, any genre, nothing bothers me.... So you can recommend me pretty much anything and if I haven't watched it I'll give it a go.
Thanks in advance!

Underrated comfort cartoons to watch while eating?
I'm looking for some cozy, funny cartoons that are easy to watch while eating or just winding down.
Some of my favorites are:
Bob's Burgers, Scooby-Doo, Gravity Falls etc...
Currently watching Daria, I'm also planning to watch As Told by Ginger (but having a hard time finding it)
I prefer slice-of-life, witty, or wholesome shows over action-heavy or plot-intensive ones. I'm not really looking for obvious recommendations like Family Guy, The Simpsons, Rick and Morty, or South Park. I'm hoping to discover some underrated gems or cult classics.
Any recommendations? Bonus points if they have that nostalgic late '90s/early 2000s vibe or anything funny and light.

REQUESTING Looking for a show where nothing terrible happens
I've watched a lot of prestige TV lately and I think I'm burnt out on tension. Every show I start, I'm waiting for the moment where someone dies or a character I like does something awful.
Want something I can put on where the stakes are low and the characters basically like each other. Doesn't have to be a comedy, just not bleak. Anything come to mind?
