13 Hilarious TV Shows That Are Worth Watching If You Just Need A Break From Reality Right Now

1.Ghosts

2.What We Do in the Shadows

3.Shrinking

Jason Segel stars as Jimmy Laird, a therapist dealing with the grief after his wife's sudden death. Suddenly finding himself at a loss, he decides to break all ethics and tell his clients how he really feels about their problems and what they should do to fix them. Naturally, chaos ensues. This show had me hooked immediately — it's that good. I also just relish the way Harrison Ford plays a grumpy therapist who says, hands down, some of the funniest lines in the entire series. Starring: Jason Segel, Jessica Williams, Luke Tennie, Michael Urie, Lukita Maxwell, Christa Miller, Harrison Ford, Ted McGinley, and more

4.Girls5Eva

Four women stand together, looking surprised. They wear casual and bold print outfits, including a plaid jacket, patterned pajamas, leopard print, and sequins

5.The Sex Lives of College Girls

Whenever I hear about a show produced by Mindy Kaling, I immediately know I'm going to love it, and TSLOCG is no different. The series follows four freshmen roommates who attend the fictional Essex College in Vermont, and if you couldn't tell from the title, it's all about how they navigate their new lives, relationships, and sex (obvi). And you heard it hear, folks. This one is such a winner. I absolutely wish I could watch it again for the first time. Starring: Pauline Chalamet, Amrit Kaur, Reneé Rapp, Alyah Chanelle Scott, Gavin Leatherwood, Christopher Meyer, Ilia Isorelýs Paulino, Renika Williams, Lauren

6.Loot

Two women smiling at a camera, one in a dark outfit, the other in a floral dress, standing outside with trees in the background

7.Our Flag Means Death

Created by David Jenkins and Taika Waititi comes this series about Stede Bonnet, an aristocrat who abandons his life to become a pirate. Understandably, it's not so easy for him to earn the respect of his crew. After coming face to face with the infamous Blackbeard and a gaggle of real pirates, Stede realizes he might be a little in over his head. In classic Taika Waititi fashion, this show is absolutely hysterical with jokes flying so fast you'll be laughing so hard you're crying. It's a delightful show about pirates who learn from their toxic masculinity, with a poignant queer love story at its center. What's better than a gay pirate show, amiright? Starring: Rhys Darby, Ewen Bremner, Joel Fry, Samson Kayo, Con O'Neill, Nathan Foad, Vico Ortiz, Kristian Nairn, Matthew Maher, Guz Khan, David Fane, Samba Schutte, Rory Kinnear, Nat Faxon, Taika Waititi, and more

10.Pen15

11.The Other Two

12.Nathan for You

13.Finally, Jury Duty

This series had such a chokehold on the world last year, and I think it's about time we revisit it. Jury Duty follows a fake trial in which every single person involved is an actor, except for one man who thinks he's actually serving as a real juror in a real trial. It's basically a master class in improv done by some of the most hysterical actors, who deserve to be a gazillion times more famous than they are. This show is a masterpiece, and I don't think the magic of it could ever be replicated. It's a must-see.  Starring: James Marsden, Alan Barinholtz, Susan Berger, Cassandra Blair, David Brown, Kirk Fox, Ross Kimball, Pramode Kumar, Trisha LaFache, Mekki Leeper, Edy Modica, Kerry O'Neill, Rashida Olayiwola, Whitney Rice, Maria Russell, Ishmel Sahid, Ben Seaward, Ron Song, Evan Williams, and more
