Saturday discussion post: recommendations again (65/365)

Because it's been a while since the last one, and I'm actually looking for recommendations for entertaining, undemanding TV I can watch by myself when T is quizzing. The most recent thing I watched was Bridgerton, which I found myself really enjoying; it was pretty to look at (though this Twitter thread is very illuminating on the subject of bosoms in the show, several of which did look very odd) and entirely unchallenging to watch (though I did keep thinking how much better it would be if it was a big-budget adaptation of [personal profile] the_comfortable_courtesan's memoirs), and I'd really like to find something in the same vein, though not necessarily the same genre. (Given that I also very much enjoyed The Untamed it could be that c-drama or k-drama is the way to go, though I don't really know where to start with that.)

So, what's your current cosy media to relax to?

I am enjoying Vera but I'm not sure it's comfort TV. It's like Morse because it's set in the area I grew up. Also The Architecture the Railways Built on Yesterday, though Tim Dunn can be quite annoying in a BBC-Talent kind of way.
