[Request] Sick with a sick baby next to me. Help this mama survive the night

[u/lsb1027]

Looking for recommendations for light, uplifting entertaining. Movies, series I don’t care.

Think the most light hearted rom com (I’ve seen them all!) or low stakes drama.

Just need to get through the night 🙏

Derry Girls is super fun and hilarious. Always cheers me up.

If you’re able to manage subtitles in your situation, Welcome to Waikiki. The first half of season one is hilarious in a very light way. The second half I found a little less funny, but instead it moved into sweet-hearted rom-com territory. And there’s a baby! (Hope your little one feels better soon.)

[u/stoptheanxiety]

I just finished Leanne. Its an easy watch, i enjoyed it. In real life, that woman probably wouldn't like me because I am a heathen who cuses like a drunken sailor lol

[u/JimDixon]

If you like mysteries, all of the Inspector Maigret books are pretty short. Georges Simenon wrote a ton of them. Be careful, though: they were originally written in French, and the English translations were sometimes reissued with different titles than the originals.

[u/seon_syain]

Business Proposal

and

King The Land

are lighthearted romcom-series

[u/Appropriate-Border-8]

It is long, but warm, funny—Love Actually.

[u/Imaginary-Ebb-9383]

Younger and Gilmore Girls  Help me on bad days.  

[u/Accomplished_Bank103]

You might enjoy Clark. It’s a Swedish limited series starring Bill Skarsgård as Clark Olofsson, the notorious bank robber whose famous 1973 heist gave rise to the term Stockholm Syndrome. It’s tongue in cheek and highly entertaining. Hope your little one feels better soon.

I love the movie "get some rest and hydrate and just focus on your health" (2025).
