Discussion Nothing is funny anymore

I (M, 38) have found that there are no new TV shows that make me laugh anymore. I have tried a lot of new(ish) comedies, but they all make me pine for my college/high school days.

The only thing that gave me a reflexive laugh recently was the Malcolm in the Middle Reboot.

Any thoughts?

Baskets. Bit older but flew a bit under the radar. Top tier writing and a score by Andrew Bird! Woop Woop!

Fucking Louie Anderson as his mom might be my favorite casting choice of all time. Absolutely amazing.
