Looking for some slop I can binge watch.

Any suggestions? Currently on the final season of Schitt's Creek. Just rewatched The Expanse, Better Off Ted and Letterkenny before I started Schitt's Creek.

Nothing serious. I don't want to learn anything. No true crime or docuseries whatevers. No an*me. Nothing political (I know I know everything's political). I'm fine w it being something you have to pay attention to from ep to ep. I'm fine with something you don't have to pay attention to. Doesn't have to be modern, or new. Doesn't have to be in English as long as there's some subtitles.

Just need some slop. Please and thanks n stuff.

The Wire

Chernobyl (there's a lot of anti-communist lies and half-truths, but if you can ignore that it's well worth it). It's more of a drama than a docuseries, but it might be a bit much however.

    I've actually been meaning to give it a watch. I'm usually fashionably late by a few years or more when I finally get around to watching something.

    Both are lib but at their best. Wire does drill in the concept of systemic problems with how every season resets in the end. Chernobyl is deeply critical of the soviet union's internal censorship (afaik this is a fair criticism of the late soviet union), but it also shows the USSR moving heaven and earth to literally save the world. The US would be utterly incapable of cleaning up that sort of mess.
