Not sure how much of a thing this is but I like to have shows playing softly while I sleep, what are your shows you like to help you sleep?
Screen off of course
Almost any space, or nature documentary. Narration has that soporific element.
serial experiments lain
bbbzzrrrrrzrrzrrrrrrrrzrrrrr
I really love watching Insym and Drawfee on YouTube to sleep :)
Futurama or Star Trek TNG.
For years it was 30 Rock. Them Bob’s Burgers (good, but the songs are always louder than the show) and now back to 30 Rock
The Mommy, matrix, scorpion king, Firefly …
We have a raspberry Pi I rigged up to play just the audio. We control it by our phones or a button attached to the headboard to choose a random one.
Used to be Futurama for years and years. Started putting Family Guy, American Dad, Bob’s Burgers, Sponge Bob, and King of the Hill into the mix. Basically anything animated.
I hate sleeping with a TV on, and don’t have a TV in my bedroom. But if I can’t sleep I move to the couch and I can’t sleep on the couch if the TV isn’t on. I always put on RedLetterMedia. Specifically I shuffle all of the episodes of Best of the Worst.
Star Trek Voyager. I was never a fan, but it has soft sounds and the volume never gets too loud unlike a lot of other shows. That said, I’m hoping to find new suggestions here :)
As long as the Clown episode doesn’t come on 😨
I just looked it up. Thanks for warning me!
I listen to a bunch of movies critics riffing on movies. It’s called adum and pals.
it has a lot of volume changes but it’s been my main sleeping background for so long the screaming that occasionally comes up doesn’t wake me anymore.
WW2 war documentaries. For some reason, all the narrators have voices that put me right to sleep.
I can imagine Laurence Olivier in The World At War would be good for this!
Yesssss But just about any history subject works for me.
Shortish science shows without bullshit with one presenter with a pleasing voice.
Like Dr Becky, PBS Space Time or anything with Harald Lesch.
Game Gumps has been my background noise/sleep noise for a decade now. I started watching them right before Jon left and after rediscovering them a year later and loving Danny, I just started falling asleep with them on.
And now 10 years later they are almost always on my TV if I’m not actively watching something. I’ve just been watching them for so long that their voices are very comfortable and soothing (even when they’re both screaming their asses off lol)
- robot chicken
- tales from the bus tour
- friends
- archer
I have three go to genres. Old westerns, old martial arts movies, and the old Godzillas. Run them at low volume and off I go…
