Not sure how much of a thing this is but I like to have shows playing softly while I sleep, what are your shows you like to help you sleep?

Screen off of course

Futurama or Star Trek TNG.

I hate sleeping with a TV on, and don't have a TV in my bedroom. But if I can't sleep I move to the couch and I can't sleep on the couch if the TV isn't on. I always put on RedLetterMedia. Specifically I shuffle all of the episodes of Best of the Worst.

Used to be Futurama for years and years. Started putting Family Guy, American Dad, Bob’s Burgers, Sponge Bob, and King of the Hill into the mix. Basically anything animated.

Star Trek Voyager. I was never a fan, but it has soft sounds and the volume never gets too loud unlike a lot of other shows. That said, I’m hoping to find new suggestions here :)

As long as the Clown episode doesn't come on 😨

Trailer Park Boys has a very relaxing theme song. I've had many nights watching it where the theme just puts me to sleep and I have to go back multiple episodes to pick the thread back up the next day. It's not always a calm show but the theme song could open for Bob Ross.

Mystery diagnosis.

For years it was 30 Rock. Them Bob's Burgers (good, but the songs are always louder than the show) and now back to 30 Rock

The Mommy, matrix, scorpion king, Firefly ....

We have a raspberry Pi I rigged up to play just the audio. We control it by our phones or a button attached to the headboard to choose a random one.

I really love watching Insym and Drawfee on YouTube to sleep :)

MST3K or RiffTrax. Takes me back to high school.

WW2 war documentaries. For some reason, all the narrators have voices that put me right to sleep.

[-] BevsDad@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 month ago

Yesssss But just about any history subject works for me.

[-] egrets@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

I can imagine Laurence Olivier in The World At War would be good for this!

[-] PoopSpiderman@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Almost any space, or nature documentary. Narration has that soporific element.

[-] BevsDad@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 month ago

DnD podcasts. The Naddpod short rests after each episode specifically. Keeps my brain focused enough to fall asleep and I don't miss any of the actual storylines!

Stuff like the Willow or Wheel of Time tv series, I just can't get into them, they seem sooo dull that I pop off to sleep in under ten minutes.

Usually space videos on the astrum YouTube channel

I wish South Park would do a Plane'arium ambience video
