Looking for heartwarming shows to put you in a good mood? Check out the following series on KrisWorld.
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.
Stick
Beneath the golf jokes and tournaments, Stick is really a heartwarming tale of second chances. Owen Wilson, with his laid-back charm, carries the tale of a washed-up golf champion, Pryce Cahill, who reluctantly mentors teenage prodigy, Santi Wheeler (Peter Dager).
As they travel together for a tournament, they form a strong bond, proving that the right people can pull you out of your lowest slump.
Sweet, funny, and full of heart, Stick is a hole in one for fans of sports dramas and feel-good comedies alike.
Family by Choice
Sometimes family isn’t the one you’re born into, but the one you create. Adapted from the beloved Chinese series Go Ahead, this K-drama follows Yoon Ju-won (Jung Chae-yeon) and her two ‘adopted’ brothers as they grow up sharing meals, dreams, and the struggles of fractured childhoods. Then, circumstances force the makeshift family apart.
Serendipitously, their paths cross again as adults — forcing them to rediscover the ties that once made them whole. Tender and endlessly comforting, Family by Choice is the perfect drama for anyone who believes that love, not blood, makes a family.
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.
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.
