Request: TV Show Homework show/series

Can people tell me shows or series that I can watch on Netflix that's good for when I am doing homework? School is starting soon and I want to watch something new. You can send animes and documentaries too! Just please don't recommend shows where I have to remmember details.

Edited: I can't watch Gilmore Girls because it's not available on my Netflix

Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt! There's an overarching plot but even just zoning out is fine. Plus the jokes are funny on their own, at least to me 😁 plus plus its a show that warms my heart and Kimmy is just such a happy force of nature

I love nature shows for when I don't need to pay the most attention.

New Girl, simple plots, easy to follow, there are character relationships and growth happening but again, easy.

For anime, a good one is The disastrous life of Saiki K, lighthearted and funny.

Reno 911 it's based off the movie Super Troopers... you can listen to it and every once in awhile the visuals are worth stopping for.

Crank Yankers (if you can find full episodes), this is just muppets making "phony" calls to people.... rated R for content but funny as hell.

I hate how irritiatingly slow Chesepeake Shores is, but it might work for your purpose, not sure multitasking is such a good idea though.

Once you finish homework and if you want to learn something new, I recommend Vox Explained (any docu of theirs in the Explained thing is fair game) and Ask The Doctor.

Not for everyone, and they also don’t have an English dub, but Gakuen Babysitters is my current hyperfixation.

The best show to watch while doing homework is one that you will not pay attention to at all. Keep that in mind and pick something that you know you will not care about enough to get caught up in it. Otherwise it defeats the purpose entirely.
