I’m at a stage in my life where waking up is often attached to a sense of existential dread. Naturally, I need a little help putting a smile on my face throughout the day. If the world isn’t literally on fire — and let’s be honest, when isn’t it? — then I’m busy extinguishing smaller fires in my own life. I need levity; I need a few laughs.
That’s why, for the past few months, I’ve been tuning into Pluto’s free More Sitcoms channel. It’s one of hundreds of free streaming options Pluto offers, yet it uniquely succeeds in soothing my tired soul with its smorgasbord of classic television. These are the shows I used to watch with my parents and friends, or the ones that served as the familiar background noise of my youth.
