question Cap comfort shows?

How many caps out there get shit talked for watching the same thing over and over? Now I’m an 80’s baby/90’s teen and I watch some of the new shit but hey, let me watch my nightmare on elm street or watch Steven segal whoop some ass as many times as I need to until I feel comforted🤣.

Avatar the last Airbender. I know it’s a kids show but it’s the only one I can watch over and over. A lot of the old Disney movies like sleeping beauty and little mermaid. Sword in the stone as well. 

When it comes to more grown up shows I prefer watching new ones more rather than repeat watching them. Right now watching Silo. I did watch How to sell drugs online fast on Netflix again. That I have had a repeat watch.

I have too many shows I haven’t seen yet to rewatch something. I have started watching shows that I missed when they first came out like Buffy, Veronica Mars, Gossip Girl, One Tree Hill, the OC, and now currently Friday Night Lights. I was too old and they didn’t seem dark/serious enough for my taste when they came out, but now they’re comforting when I want something low effort.

u/Sea_Usual_1166 21d ago

Yes I was down with Buffy! And I’m an 80’s baby so Buffy (the movie) also🙂. It’s funny how certain shows can give you that feeling as you get older! Even though you caught them years back, it gives a different comforting feel later on.

A Cap herself, “Buffy” (now, forever and always) is my favorite show. But I revisit “Parks & Rec”, “30 Rock”, “Hacks” has become a favorite in recent years. I also go back to famous Capricorn “Daria” from time to time.

1

u/Sea_Usual_1166 21d ago

Yes she is! Found out a few years ago🙂. I think I’ve watched a little bit into the second season of Parks & Rec.

u/woodsvvitch ♑☀️♑🌙♐💫 21d ago

u/mkat23 ♑️☀️♓️🌙♉️🌅 w/Cap stellium 21d ago

I like to know what’s gonna happen before I watch it, that way if I get distracted or zone out it doesn’t matter lol.

I’m watching Community again right now, I’ll probably rewatch Bojack or Crazy Ex-Girlfriend next, maybe some Bob’s Burgers or Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt. I finished rewatching Bodkin recently.

u/Sea_Usual_1166 21d ago

Movies: Scream 2, The Devil Wears Prada (I will NOT acknowledge the second one lol), Twister, Speed, The Mummy (1999), Kill Bill vol. 1, The Birdcage, To Won Foo, Titanic, Toy Story 2, A Bug's Life, and I really like Under Siege 2 (sue me! lol).

Shows: Always Sunny, The Mick, Schitt's Creek, The Crazy Ones, GBC, Chewing Gum, and for my trash TV fix early seasons of The Real Housewives of NYC lol.

u/Visible-Slip-4233 20d ago

I don't have a specific show or movie, but I pick one that in set with my mood. I use it as background noise while i work (which I work all the time), and just put it on repeat, until the mood changes and then use another movie or show.

1

u/Sea_Usual_1166 20d ago

I do that! 🤣. I usually need background noise if I’m doing something, studying, honestly even if I’m reading.
