If you’re up in the air and in the mood for something cosy, these TV picks are perfect for warming you up from the inside out. From life-affirming dramedies to fan-favourite sitcoms, here are five shows that bring all the comfort to your seat — no blanket required.
Friends
Spacious New York apartments, endless coffee at Central Perk, and a friend group so iconic they basically defined a generation — Friends wasn’t just a sitcom, it was the cultural blueprint of the ’90s and early 2000s. Airing from 1994 to 2004, the show gave us unforgettable moments: Ross and Rachel’s rollercoaster romance, Monica and Chandler’s surprise — and totally perfect — love story, Joey’s legendary “How you doin’?”, and Phoebe’s offbeat brilliance (hello, “Smelly Cat”).
The chemistry between Courteney Cox, Jennifer Aniston, David Schwimmer, Matthew Perry, Matt LeBlanc, and Lisa Kudrow turned six actors into global superstars — by the final season, each was earning US$1 million per episode. The finale? Watched by over 52 million people. And decades on, Friends still lives rent-free in the hearts (and watchlists) of fans old and new, proving some friendships really are forever.

Abbott Elementary
Set in a school that’s constantly underfunded but never short on grit, Abbott Elementary is a love letter to teachers doing their best with too little. Created by Quinta Brunson, who honed her comedic voice at BuzzFeed and drew inspiration from her mother’s 40-year kindergarten-teacher career, the show mines humour from the challenges of educators, which include navigating bureaucracy, coming up with engaging lessons, and, of course, managing their own social lives.
Abbott Elementary is shot mockumentary-style (think The Office), bringing you into the daily chaos of a public school, where every small win is hard-earned, and every laugh comes with a pinch of realism. What sets Abbott Elementary apart from other sitcoms is its sincerity: the show is sharp without being cynical and heartwarming without being saccharine. Now in its fourth season, its characters have truly grown into their own.

Ted Lasso
At its heart, Ted Lasso is about how relentless optimism can shape lives for the better. Jason Sudeikis stars as the endlessly positive American football coach who is hired to manage a struggling UK football (or, as the Americans call it, soccer) club despite knowing next to nothing about the sport. What could have been a fish-out-of-water comedy evolves into something much deeper: a show about kindness, vulnerability, and leading with heart. Even though he’s going through a failing marriage, Ted has an unwavering belief in people that uplifts and transforms them. With sharp writing, lovable characters, and a whole lot of soul, Ted Lasso is a feel-good watch that will restore your faith in humanity.

Camp Snoopy
Camp Snoopy brings the Peanuts gang to the great outdoors! Snoopy and the Beagle Scouts try to save their troop from being dissolved, while Charlie Brown and friends spend the summer at Camp Spring Lake. Packed with campfire stories, canoe trips, and plenty of chaos, this miniseries blends old-school charm with summer-holiday exuberance. But it’s not just frivolous fun — there’s heart here, too, with stories about crushes, homesickness, and growing up. Ultimately, Camp Snoopy celebrates friendship, teamwork, and finding joy in the little moments — it’s less a boot camp and more a pleasant get-together.

Shrinking
From the producers of Ted Lasso, Shrinking stars Jason Segel as Jimmy, a therapist who’s lost his wife, is tired of his job, and decides he’s done following the rules. He starts telling his clients exactly what is on his mind — to unexpectedly positive results. With Harrison Ford in one of his most brilliantly quiet roles as Paul, who’s part mentor to Jimmy and part reluctant grandfather figure to Jimmy’s daughter, Shrinking dives deep into the psychiatric profession and the intricacies of human relationships. It’s messy, tender, and unexpectedly uplifting — a story about life falling apart and the strange, beautiful ways we piece it back together again with the support of those who love us.
