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

    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!

    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*

    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

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

    @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

    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!
