1. Hacks is really well done and worth checking out.

Three seasons in the can and a fourth on the way.

2. Superstore

Is great. I would add Abbott Elementary, The Goldberg's (if you have any nostalgia for the 80's,) and Modern Family.

Parks and Recreation and Brooklyn 99 are also great shows that are happy shows.

3. I rec...

Kimmy Schmidt
The IT crowd.
And Malcom in the middle from your list.

I like The Office
Also Kevin can go F&$@ himself.

4. Psych was a pretty good show, I liked it.

One Day at a Time... really?

9. It was on a list of "Best comfort shows"

I didn't say I watched it. FPS.

11. Yeah, I understand that

I just don't get how One Day at a Time made the list. It wasn't a bad show, I liked it, but I wouldn't consider it a "comfort show" really, as some of the topics were pretty heavy. But I did like Schneider the Super, he was usually pretty funny.

5. The Good Place, Jane the Virgin

6. Hank (1965-66)

Hank is a 1965 American television sitcom that starred Dick Kallman in the title role. The show is a notable early example of a program with a true series finale,[1][better source needed] in which the underlying premise of the series reaches a natural conclusion with its final episode.[2]
Synopsis

The show, which aired on NBC in 1965, revolves around a pair of orphans. In both the unaired pilot and first episode, Hank Dearborn is explained to be a teenager left to raise his young sister, Tina, after their parents die in a car crash.

Seeing that the best route to success is through higher education, Hank attempts to illegally audit classes at the fictional Western State University, while at the same time taking a variety of odd jobs, including running his own lunch truck on campus, to financially support what remains of his family.
