Series
How I Met Your Mother (S1-9)
Learn all about Ted and how he fell in love, intertwined with the stories of his best friends Robin, Marshall, Lily, and Barney. This multi Emmy award-winner gave us nine seasons of laughs and outrageous Barney moments.
A comedy series about a guy in his twenties and the romance between him and the woman who will be his wife and the mother of his children. It all started when Ted’s best friend, Marshall, drops the bombshell that he’s going to propose to his long-time girlfriend, Lily, a kindergarten teacher. At that moment, Ted realises that he had better get a move on if he hopes to find true love, too.

Bob's Burgers (S1-10 and S11 episodes available weekly)
For comedy well done with a dash of absurdity, a sprinkle of awkwardness, and a heap of affection for unusual characters, indulge in Bob's Burgers. Season 11 is streaming on Disney+ with new episodes available weekly.
Bob Belcher is a third-generation restaurateur who runs Bob's Burgers with his loving wife and their three children. Bob believes his burgers speak for themselves and isn't afraid to offer a variety of off-beat creations. Bob's wife, Linda, supports his dream but is becoming sick of the slow times, as the restaurant is constantly in danger of going out of business. Despite the challenges, which includes consistent harassment from Linda's ex -- a health inspector -- Bob tries to keep the grill sizzling.
Fresh Off the Boat (S1-6)
Starring Marvel Cinematic Universe’s Randall Park, who you can also see in WandaVision on Disney+, as Louis and Constance Wu as Jessica. They're the parents of three boys and owners of a cowboy restaurant who left friends and comfort behind to go to a place where they know nothing and, more importantly, the humidity is very bad for hair.
It's the 90s and 11-year old, hip-hop loving Eddie just moved to suburban Orlando from DC's Chinatown with his parents. It's a culture shock for his immigrant family in this comedy about pursuing the American Dream. "Fresh Off the Boat" is based on Chef Eddie Huang's memoir Fresh Off the Boat.

Dollface (S1)
Fellow WandaVision actor Kat Dennings leads the cast in this Star on Disney+ exclusive for Australia. Things get a little weird unless you’ve actually caught a bus driven by a cat before, but the series is a wonderfully fun ride. Margot Robbie is also one of the executive producers.
Dennings stars as a young woman who, after being dumped by her longtime boyfriend, must deal with her own imagination when she literally and metaphorically re-enters the world of women, in order to rekindle the female friendships she left behind. Also starring Brenda Song, Shay Mitchell, and Esther Povitsky.
Glee (S1-6)
Can Mr. Schu make Glee Club great again? He’s going to try with a bunch of outcasts who twirl, jump, harmonise, and belt out ballads. Glee is something special, that’s how we “C” it.
A musical comedy about a group of ambitious and talented young adults who dream of stardom, but struggle with life in the real world.

Deadpool (2016) and Deadpool 2 (2018)
Deadpool, starring Ryan Reynolds, is a love story; that has kebab-style murder, slow death by Zamboni, Wolverine digs and a hero coolly named Negasonic Teenage Warhead. Time to make the chimichangas.
Based upon Marvel Comics’ most unconventional anti-hero, Deadpool tells the origin story of mercenary Wade Wilson, who hunts down the man who nearly destroyed his life.
Deadpool 2 is the sequel to the first one. Foul-mouthed mutant mercenary Wade Wilson (AKA. Deadpool), brings together a team of fellow mutant rogues to protect a young boy with supernatural abilities from the brutal, time-travelling cyborg, Cable.
The Heat (2013)
The perfect movie to watch with a buddy, especially if you want plenty of laughs thanks to an angry, trash-talking, cursing Bostoner and an uptight FBI agent that nobody, other than us, can stand.
Sandra Bullock and Melissa McCarthy play incompatible cops who team up to bring down a drug lord in this outrageously funny comedy from the director of Bridesmaids, Paul Feig.
Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story (2004)
This movie's never picked last when it comes to great comedies. Watch Vince Vaughn, Rip Torn, Alan Tudyk, Justin Long, and Christine Taylor as the ultimate underdog team duck, dip, dive and dodge the balls and insults of mulleted egomaniac and Globo Gym owner, White Goodman, played by Ben Stiller.
A group of misfits enter a Las Vegas dodgeball tournament in order to save their cherished local gym from the onslaught of a corporate health fitness chain.
Borat: Cultural Learnings Of America For Make Benefit Glorious Nation ... (2006)
Thankfully for us, Borat puts his VCR viewing, ping pong, disco dancing and sunbathing on hold to come to the aid of his nation's Ministry of Information. He meets some wonderful, welcoming people, discovers many cheese varieties, and nice hotel rooms surprisingly larger than an elevator. Wa wa wee wa!
Roving journalist and the sixth-most famous person from his native Kazakhstan, Borat Sagdiyev travels to the United States to learn about American culture with hilarious results.
Juno (2007)
Throw on a hoodie or a flannie, a gold headband if you have one, and grab a mailbox-sized supply of your favourite tiny delectable for this award-winning and critically acclaimed gem. Elliott Page leads an outstanding cast featuring Michael Cera and Jason Bateman, both in Arrested Development also on Disney+, Allison Janney, J.K. Simmons, and Jennifer Garner.
When she becomes unexpectedly pregnant by a guy pal, a 16-year-old girl in small-town Minnesota decides to give her baby to the "perfect" couple she locates from the classified ads, only to discover that the impending adoption is pushing them towards divorce and causing her to fall in love with the biological father of the child.
The Darjeeling Limited (2007)
Wes Anderson brings his rich visual style, offbeat humour, and inventive exploration of life and relationships to this tale of estranged, bickering brothers and all their baggage. Starring Jason Schwartzman, who also co-wrote the script, Adrien Brody and Owen Wilson, with Bill Murray, Natalie Portman and Anjelica Huston also appearing.
Things don't always go as expected when three American brothers mourning the loss of their father embark on a spiritual bonding trip across India to visit their mother who's entered a convent in the Himalayas.
