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 ?

Not sure about what constitutes a light comedy, but The Righteous Gemstones is a fantastic show I just got turned onto a few months ago. Good news is it just wrapped up season 3, so there's plenty to watch.

Crazy that there's so few comments on this thread and someone already took my suggestion lol. Gotta give a +1 for gemstones. Found out about it a couple of weeks ago and binged all 3 seasons. What's nice about this show too is that each season feels complete with no cliffhangers. Gives a good stopping point if you need a break.

Another show we've been watching is Miracle Workers. Loved the first season but it kinda tampers off in season 3 for me

Agreed on how they end the seasons. Season threes ending however was so perfect I'm almost afraid season 4 will ruin it.

I know this is asking a lot, but if you remember will you come back and tell us what you think?

Hi, I watched about 3 episodes, and the show was okay. Not something I would call light comedy. as I like to have not too much drama in a show. I like to have as little comedy based on sex tropes and scandals as possible. that's why I liked abott elementary more. but I might come back to it another time.

I binge watched "The good place" that others suggested here and it was pretty good and it had a few clever twists in it too.
