I am someone who always enjoys having something on in the background, helping me focus.

I love me some Andor, GoT, a lot of newer stuff that is made with really high production quality - but I sit down to watch those.

What shows do you watch that just sit running in the background, ones that aren't going to win any Emmys but you just enjoy?

For me my last two are Home Improvement and Everybody Loves Raymond. Both were fine in their heyday, but now they are noise filler. Not terrible, not great. So what are yours?

Trailer Park Boys. Especially as it has a soothing intro so it's peak night watching.

30 Rock has the opposite of that for an intro, but its writing is so good that you don't need to be tuned in long to catch a punchline.

Cheers is a throwback but it holds up well. Also checks the box for a intro that's comfort food.

All three are go-tos for me! Have never finished Cheers, on Season 9 I believe, but I should probably finish
