Recently I binge watched Abbot Elementary, and I couldn't get enough of it, watched the British version of ghosts and it was quite good too.

I have tried "what we do in the shadows" and it wasn't to my liking.

What are your suggestions about a light comedy series of the same genre ?

If you've not watched Mork and Mindy, that's worth it. It was Robin William's breakout role in television, so if you know Robin, you know what you're getting. It's delightful.

I've been really getting into Korean tv on Netflix lately, too. Best watched with subtitles and no dubbing. My gf and I have been watching Good Manager, which is about a tacky mob accountant trying to run away from his problems by skimming flagrantly from all of the dodgy businesses he manages. He gets hired at a large corporation and thinks he's onto his biggest scam yet, but the accounting team are sincere, the managers are psychos, and he's still got a glimmer of heart beneath his red hair dye and 1980's Sears catalogue suits that makes stealing from big business really, really hard when they take it out on the little guy. It's had me absolutely rolling; people's facial expressions, their theatrics, and vigorous use of the leitmotif really brought it together. 10/10, for me.

Didn’t they kill comedy completely a couple years ago?
