    @charlieboyz I think that's a really good coping strategy to be honest, I love seeing what everyone loves and what makes them happy :)

    @charlieboyz That's really great, I'm really proud of you for doing things that benefit you! It can be really hard to take charge when you're feeling down so this is really amazing to read!

    Hi @charlieboyz Thanks so much for thinking about me. Sorry I don't normally watch TV or films. My brain is not working:(

    New Girl - if you like Friends you'll love it, similar sitcom-style based on a group of friends and equally as entertaining. I've rewatched it multiple times and it never gets old! :)

    Hi all,

    What a great thread. Thanks for initiating this thread @Brookee. Thanks also to everyone else who has taken the time to provide us with their favourites. I would still have to go with The Simpsons! or Good Luck Charlie (or anything else Disney related) <3

    @GreenTea I've actually never seen Gilmore Girls, but it's on my to watch list!! I'm pleased it brings you so much joy! Thank you so much for sharing with us!

    @Laura_tigger82 The Simpsons is such a good distraction tv show! I love Disney shows too! Sometimes when I'm feeling a bit down, I always tend to gravitate towards Hannah Montana :) I do hope Disney plus add some cartoon shows like Cow and Chicken and Rugrats because they bring me so much joy :) Thank you so much for sharing with us!

    Ooh, Hannah Montana is great! I might be showing my age but I grew up with Hannah Montana. I.e. Hannah Montana/Miley Cyrus was in my friendship group's karaoke, games on the Nintendo Wii and Nintendo DS and on the TV at sleepovers =)

    @Laura_tigger82 I did as well!! Loved Hannah Montana and Wizards of Waverly Place! That sounds like such a wonderful time, particularly at sleepovers, I think my sleepovers often consisted of binge watching Tracy Beaker haha!
  • Laura_tigger82Laura_tigger82 Moderator Posts: 2,860 Boards Guru
    Ooh and Tracy Beaker! Thanks @Brookee, now you are bringing me back to my childhood days :)
  • BrookeeBrookee East Midlands Posts: 1,331 Wise Owl
    @Laura_tigger82 Good ol Tracy Beaker helping us through :) I also really loved that jungle programme with the golden monkeys?
  • Laura_tigger82Laura_tigger82 Moderator Posts: 2,860 Boards Guru
    Oh yes! All very good tv programmes @Brookee. And that one where someone did challenges in people's houses and had to not be found =) I can't remember what they are called though *puzzled face emoji*

    What are your favourites @GreenTea? :)
  • AislingDMAislingDM Moderator Posts: 832 Part of The Mix Family
    Omg are you talking about Jungle Run? Such a banging show wow I loved all the challenges, they seemed so scary to me as a kid, like I thought they'd actually be trapped in a cave, but even now I feel so warm and nostalgic watching it <3

    @AislingDM YES!! Thank you so much for bringing me that nostalgia back!! I know that and Raven, genuinely thought those children disappeared into thin air!

    The steps you take don’t need to be big, they just need to take you in the right direction.

    EastEnders- a great tv programme. I always watch it as a distraction.

    I really enjoy Encanto and Eastenders too @Dandelion and @Zay :3
  • BrookeeBrookee East Midlands Posts: 1,331 Wise Owl
    @Dandelion I've heard so many great things about Encanto! I'm so glad you and @Laura_tigger82 enjoyed it!

    @Zay Eastenders is a great piece of distraction TV! Do you watch the older ones too or just the new ones?

    Thanks @Brookee. Do you have Disney+? If so, I'd recommend it! :3

    @Zay I bet it's so fun seeing the older ones as well!

    @Laura_tigger82 I do have Disney +, thank you!! I will definitely give that a go!

    I love watching 'Fleabag' when I'm down, it is just hilarious! I don't really know why but I also like watching 'The Grand Budapest Hotel' when I'm down too. It may just be the positive memories associated with the first time I watched it but it is heartwarming!

    Yay, I hope you enjoy watching Encanto @Brookee :3

    Thanks for sharing your recommendations too @maryam852. Always great that you have things you can turn to when you want to feel better! :3
