I've been watching PLURIBUS, which has been an entertaining, darkly comic alien invasion/end of the world story. I won't spoil anything, but I'm definitely enjoying it.
Same with SUGAR, which qualifies as a comfort watch as far as I'm concerned. This neo-noir is lovely and I've enjoyed it greatly (big Colin Farrell fan). People have whined about the bit twist/reveal in Season 1, but I'm okay with it.
WIDOW'S BAY was entertaining, too, being a horror-comedy fusion that's quirky and enjoyable (think NORTHERN EXPOSURE meets 'SALEM'S LOT). As someone who almost never loses sight of the humorous in my own work, I appreciate the effort.
Also rewatching BETTER CALL SAUL as well as HANNIBAL and THE PERIPHERAL, so I suppose all of those qualify as comfort watches on some level.
Still as fucked as ever, still need more readers and fans, but there it is.
