Watching Shrinking - US comedy-drama (does US TV make anything else any more?) with Jason Segel and Harrison Ford.
As wrong and stupid about therapy as one might expect from a TV show, but sometimes resonant about trauma and mental illness in a way you don't often see.
Life’s been so weird this decade, I’ve been catching up on some seriously good sci-fi and dystopian series. Here’s what I’ve been binging lately:
Silo (Apple TV+) – Secrets, lies, and life underground
Andor (Disney+) – The Rebellion begins with a spark
For All Mankind (Apple TV+) – What if the space race never ended?
The Last of Us (Max) – Fungi, fear, and fierce survival
Severance (Apple TV+) – Work-life balance, but terrifying
Got recs in the same vein? Drop them below 
NEW EPISODE: A bit delayed, perhaps, but good things come to those who wait. Here's Jim's review (SPOILERS!) of The Boys, Season 4. #TheBoys #Superheroes #TVRecommendations #SFF https://youtu.be/8hpYkanNJcA
Help me find some more TV shows to watch! I like shows with women as main characters; shows with found family; shows with LGBT characters; shows with characters of colour; shows with very competent characters. Murders are okay but I prefer to avoid shows with sexual assaults. I don't like a lot of God/Religion if I can avoid it. I am open to all fictional TV genres.
Watching Silo, and I can't tell if it's good or not. Good performances and interesting setting, lots of interesting questions so far. Hope there are interesting answers. A bit like 'Lost' in that way, but more cohesive.
Our recuperating household needs a new bingeable show.
We loved Ted Lasso, Good Omens, Severance, Beforeigners, Lucifer and The Good Place, and the first season of Altered Carbon, but couldn't stand the second.
So all genres are on the table, but a general upbeatness or a mystery where the good/bad is clear is preferred.
Not keen on being asked to like terrible characters.
Any recommendations?

Edit to add: Thanks to everyone who replied! I have a lovely set of new things to watch.
Most of the comedian self-insert sitcoms - This Way Up, Game Face, Starstruck - are fine, definitely watchable.
Juice by Mawan Rizwan on the BBC is really good. Really good. I love its magical realism and silliness and honesty and its heart. Finding out that Jamma's mum and bro are played by Mawan's IRL mum and bro gave me a happy.
I really hope they make more, I miss it already.
If you have Disney+ and are wondering what to watch after The Bear, check out Mr Inbetween. It's a few years old and I'm not even sure how we discovered it, but it's so bloody good. Trailer doesn't really do it justice, but here it is, anyway.
I have somehow fallen into a series called Bee and Puppycat on Netflix. Half the time I have no idea what’s happening but it’s so weird I love it. The way Puppycat speaks is just…

Anyone have any recommendations for any outstanding (not just 'good) TV series to watch? My 'already seen' ones are: Years and Years, Upright (S1 & S2), all the series' based on Harlan Coben books, plus I think I would just about add Apple TV's 'Severence' into the outstanding category too 
Thank you #TVrecommendations
@Aaidanbird thanks for this tip! Thinking #food (#FoodJournalism), #ContemporaryArt, #TVRecommendations, etc!
@lynbw I ran out of steam with #TheHandmaidsTale but I might give it another go. Very much enjoying the current series of #TheGoodFight. Highly topical.
