Doc Martin and Detectorists come to mind. There are a whole slew of great

British comedy shows, although I'm guessing you are looking for more "modern" shows based on your list. Doc Martin and Detectorists are fairly modern, which is why I recommended them, but there are a ton of other greats if you are OK with older/dated stuff.

What We Do in the Shadows

Hoid

10/20/20 10:59pm

Well, maybe not, I guess it's technically TV-MA.

Hoid

10/20/20 11:01pm

I gave that a shot. Couldn't finish the first episode. Does it get better?

This is going off horrible memory, but IIRC, yes. I mean, I think I liked it

Hoid

I loved it, but it's definitely TV-MA.

Its rating wasn't an issue for me. I was struggling to find it funny.

Jacare

Then I recommend giving it another shot.

Life in Pieces is the most underrated and overlooked series from the past few

This is a funny series. Mr Kim makes the show.

I'm surprised Psych and Monk aren't on there. Someone mentioned Monk above.

Psych is great

I don't know where it's available, but NewsRadio was a good one from the 90's.

BYUHawk

10/20/20 11:25pm

It was good, but tapered off after Phil Hartman’s death.

10/20/20 11:29pm

That's for sure. I think that was only one season, if I recall. Probably because

BYUHawk

10/20/20 11:34pm

You can watch the first couple seasons in IMDb TV. The rest are available on Pluto, I believe. Both are free.

Yeah, that was a pity, but at least they got the opportunity and wrapped it up.

If you’ve never seen Life in Pieces, it was one of our favorites. So funny.
