30 TV Trivia Nuggets from Pop Culture History for Monday, December 8, 2025
Everyone these days has a go-to comfort show to put on for background noise and cozy vibes. The show in question doesn't have to be particularly calming; plenty of people watch unsettling, violent, or dramatic shows on repeat. The comfort comes more from the sense of familiarity, nostalgia, and reliable emotional escape from reality.
