Idk if it's "lesser known" exactly but it's a comfort show that I can have on in the background at all times: Psych.
It's got a specific pacing and humor that tickles my brain just right. They will let some of the funniest jokes you have ever heard just fly right by if you aren't paying attention.
Not super complicated or deep thinking. Just cheesy fun.
It’s a show that gets funnier each time you watch as you get more and more of their references.
I can always rely on someone recommending this show in these threads. Still my favorite show of all time
"I don't lose things. I place things in locations which later elude me." Has become part of my normal vocabulary.
My dad thought it was so funny that it got him to watch the show and now it's one of his favorite shows too.
If you like Psych I'd recommend High Potential. Very similar but stars Kaitlin Olson (from it's alway Sunny) as a single mom with high IQ helping the police.
I used to love Psych but, after binging a season or two, it was too "one note" for me and couldn't keep my interest. Similarly, for High Potential, it couldn't keep my attention once I found out that it's almost another take on Psych's formula.
But, pineapples!
I've heard it both ways
