I like tv programs that involve a somewhat stable family dynamic so I always go for Judging Amy or Brothers & Sisters. If I want eye candy I watch Greys Anatomy. Those are my three that I come to my mind first.

There is really nothing that I'm very involved with in terms of regular television programing right now except Once Upon A Time and I'm somewhat disenchanted compared to last season so I will likely buy the DVD's for my collection of things that I like to revisit when the mood strikes...

Mapp & Lucia
Murder She Wrote
Charlie's Angels
Charmed (Seasons One & Two) and the Finale.
That Girl
Cybill
Hill Street Blues
Murphy Brown
Kate And Allie

I have about 100 DVD's that I have either bought or have been given as gifts and the ones I always go back to are

The Margaret Rutherford Agatha Christie movies from the early 60's
Murder Most Foul
Murder At The Gallop
Murder Ahoy
Murder She Said

I also like the AC movies from the 70's!
Murder On The Orient Express
Death On The Nile
Evil Under The Sun
The Mirror Crack'd

In a different flavor
Who Is Killing The Great Chefs Of Europe?
Julia
The Last Of Sheila
The Last Metro
Day For Night
Somebody Killed Her Husband
Sunburn
Kill Bill 1 & 2
The Young Girls Of Rochefort
Throughly Modern Millie
The Great Race
It's A Mad Mad Mad Mad World
Charade
Two For The Road

Right now I'm watching Garbo Talks and later I'm thinking of watching If It's Tuesday, This Must Be Belgium.

Once in a blue moon I can re-watch...
Madame Rosa
Central Station
Ship Of Fools
Separate Tables
Mississippi Mermaid
Rich And Famous
Holocaust
And if I have a couple of drinks and a sedative I can watch...
Grease
Xanadu
Can't Stop The Music

Eddie Murphy's "Coming to America" is one of those things I can flip to and watch a couple minutes of any time it shows up for some reason. It seems to cover a pretty broad audience and I don't think I've run into anybody that "disapproved" of it so to speak.

This is going to sound super corny, but The Holiday, with Jude Law, Jack Black, Kate Winslet, and Cameron Diaz. I don't know what it is about this movie, but I can watch it over and over again. I love movies in general although, I was a theatre major, and got my BA, now I'm onto the sciences haha

Just by coincidence I had made a blog entry very similar. Though not considered comfort movies.

Though many who replied have stated things that go beyond comfort to my understanding.

My top comfort movies are:

Pieces of April
A Death At A Funeral (UK version)
Forest Gump
Finding Never Never Land
Fear and Loathing Las Vegas
Raising Arizona

I keep watching Seinfeld

I never really watched it, as I was too busy and for some reason I don't like too many peeps in the kitchen with the goings on.

Though the few episodes I sat through were fun... the memorable was soup and test drive. Though nothing beats Taxi and MASH for yank comedy.

As for hearing the work Feck being said proper. The Irish sitcom Mrs Brown's Boys is like Mrs Doubtfire and All In The Family gone wrong. MWHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

^^I so agree with this statement. I love that movie as well. It's not corny. Kate Winslet in that movie was just too adorable.
