Recommendations for shows similar to Our Flag Means Death or The Orville? (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

Are there any other shows out there of this sort of lighthearted nature, yet made with quality writing, out there?

It feels like a lot of recent things we've watched has been a bit grim and/or relies on spectacle rather than telling a good story and working a few jokes in along the way ... the world is on fire, I'd like to stop it and get off, if only for a few minutes at a time.

The Completely Made-Up Adventures of Dick Turpin has a similar vibe to Our Flag Means Death, maybe a little goofier. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt19516036/?ref_=ext_shr
