There’s a newish movie on Netflix that fits the bill for me: Love at First Sight. I can pop it on when I’m having a bad day and just need a feel good, cozy, chemistry filled love story.

That show was very funny. I found it at some point in the last few years on one of those streaming services and watched it again. The entire cast was comedy gold. Not sure why it didn't quite catch on.

I really enjoyed Go On as well.

So agree on this.

I loved that movie! My favorite part was when he punched the airplane seat in front of him, forgetting someone else felt that, and then apologized.

It’s one of my favorite comfort movies (nice concept PP). I have a Latina mom and a WASPy dad so it really resonated when I saw it as a kid, and I love their chemistry. It’s funny, fun, and cute.

It's one of those movies that I would always watch when I found it on TV when I had cable.

I also like 17 Again. Sweet and touching.

Another movie that champions marriage and relationships is Couples Retreat.

I've watched many times, one of my comfort food movies. Makes me sad he never got sober or had the family he apparently wanted.

I remember it being really sweet. Will have to watch.

I love that movie. I also love him in Three to Tango and The Whole Nine Yards.

Rewatched after many years and I'd forgotten how wonderful this movie is. How great the story of signs everywhere and how good Matthew Perry was.

They don't really make movies like this anymore - really down to earth, innocent, easy, simple.
