If you like Modern Family then check out Life In Pieces.
Thanks.
I'd also recommend parks and recreation if you haven't seen it yet, its really good.

Unsure if its on prime or netflix in UK just now though.

It was on Prime, not sure if it still is because it's also on newly-launched Sky Comedy

Love all these. Shame life in pieces has been cancelled now, obviously parks and recreation finished a while ago and modern family is on its final season.

There’s a bit of a big gap in this genre imho.

Still on Prime, and on NowTV (and Sky Box Sets?).

Mentioned before, but Parks & Recreation gets a lot better after season 1.

"Thud Pilots" is pretty good.

Pilots' stories and experiences flying the F105 Thunderchief "Thud" in the Vietnam war.

But the bullet and paid for the last ship season 5.

More of the same, which is a good thing.

I watched it last month, it’s pretty good. There’s a couple decent military docs on there. Also loads of really good ones on YouTube if your into that stuff

The 20 minute, smart comedy is a great thing. Very handy if you've had a busy evening, and just want to switch off with a cuppa for 20 mins before bed...

Just watching the new Ted Bundy family documentary.

Frightening. Especially the family footage.

Watching the last of James May in Japan. Excellent stuff.

I think his sidekick Yujiro put together with Gino D'Acampo would be a hoot.

Found a film today that starred Mel Gibson and Vince Vaughan called Dragged Across Concrete It’s about two cops who get suspended without pay and decide to find a way to supplement their income. Very gritty and a rather novel plot. Not for the faint hearted.

Highly recommend "When Thunder Rolled" if you like reading and Thuds!
