The good place?
Yes! Go in cold - no spoilers
This is really the best answer. Similar vibes, a little less terf islander twee, a little more american twee, and other than that;
Good omens:the good place as the Simpsons:futurama
Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell by Susanna Clarke: Stunningly gorgeous, dense fantasy novel. The BBC miniseries was also well done.
The Gray House by Mariam Petrosyan: Immersive, beautiful, novel that feels like a strange dream you don’t necessarily want to wake up from.
Warhammer has more lore than a single person can absorb but somehow I don’t think that’s your style lol
Have you read any of Terry Pratchett’s other books? They’re fantastic.
The Emperor protects.
Sliders?
Did that ever finish? All I remember as kid was cliff hanger.
Can’t remember how the last couple seasons went but it got strange
You should consider Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy
Just try Star Trek.
Did you just recommend Star Trek to someone named Stamets?
it was fairly on the nose and I thought everyone will have a laugh about it. I was wrong
I think we on Lemmy are just bad at sarcasm lol
We are.
meanwhile on reddit the very same premise leads to Epstein files or something.
Oh you poor sweet innocent summer child… Star Trek is 90% of my personality
But have you tried looking into the sci fi or fantasy genres?
I just found out recently about the real Paul Stamets. Cool work dude did. Had no idea he was a real person when I started watching Discovery

Also since I’ve seen many of your posts around here, I’ve been hoping you are the real Paul Stamets since I learned of him/you
Alas no. Not that sexy at all
tough shit, me too. i guess we’re friends now.
Book series:
Ender’s Game (the movie for the first book sucked, don’t watch lol, or if you do, plz don’t judge the book by it at all)
Eragon
The Wheel of Time
Hey thanks for mentioning ender’s game! I rewatched the movie a while ago, and yeah still a bit doo doo, but left me curious about the books.
Mrs. Davis -show about a nun who fights an AI with lots of fun twists!
Stuff You Should You Know - podcast absolutely love those guys
Pushing up daisies - a great show that as especially unique flair to it that I’ve been trying to find since
Halt and Catch Fire -a great show about the rise of computers and hacking all sort of fictional but based in reality very fun first season kinda got serious later on but throughly enjoyed it
And now it’s bedtime as I can’t remember anything atm my adderall has run out 🫡
Sandman
Now you get to read the book and then get into Terry Pratchett’s Discworld series.
Start with Reaper Man
Lol I just gave Good Omens to a friend for their bday and they just told me they finished it and really loved it wait are you my friend??!!??!!??!
Just realized I was doing the thing in the meme. Yikes! Well now I got to think about that.
Fullmetal Alchemist
The Vorkosigan Series
Swordheart by Ursula Vernon
A perfect opportunity to plug my favorite show of all time: The Expanse. Six seasons, too!
