Been watching a ton of "The Adventures Of Pete & Pete" lately. Wasn't a show that I particularly cared for as a child (actually found it kind of boring, same with King Of The Hill, which I also now love/adore), but it was very important to me that I watch the season 3 episode "Splashdown" every summer. Just got done with "New Year's Pete" and it might be one of the best kid's shows episodes I've seen
House MD,
It's fun to joke around with my fiancee and invent alternate universes where House is Normal/right the first diagnosis/ been replaced with his cast with a team of eastern European spies that are some how better and more professional doctors. (Eastern European Spy Camren diagnoses everything as lupis.)
Ikebukuro West Gate Park: An amazingly weird Japanese crime-comedy that also serves as a time capsule for 2000s pop culture and fashion. Huge recommend.
Marginal: An Argentinian prison thriller where each season is a different story taking place in the same cell block. Kind of feels like exploitation cinema. Dark and over-the-top.
Pushing Daisies: This is my comfort watch, I go back to it every few years. A whimsical rom-com/detective show with fantastical elements and colorful set design.
The Kingdom (Riget): A Lars Von Trier miniseries from the 90s set in a creepy hospital. A bit Twin Peaks-y but gets way darker and offputting. Recommended if you're a fan of his.
Eerie, Indiana: A 90s kids show that's sort of in-between Goosebumps and The Adventures of Pete & Pete. Weird fiction for children, not very well-acted but nostalgic for 90s kids.
So Weird: A 2000s kids show about a teenage girl traveling in an RV and encountering all sorts of paranormal creatures. This is a show I remembered watching as a kid and came back to out of curiosity. It's okay. It has an overarching mythology which was never fully resolved before the show was cancelled.
