  1. Platonic poster

    Closest match

    AppleTV+ · Aug 6, 2025

    Platonic

    IMDb 7.2

    Why this fits: Platonic keeps the same warm, awkward friendship pressure as Everyone Is Doing Great, where two people try to restart their closeness while adult life keeps interrupting. Expect conversational jokes, messy honesty, and the kind of social friction that lands hardest when old grievances and new routines collide.

    • old grudges
    • urban life
  2. The Four Seasons poster

    Netflix · May 28, 2026

    The Four Seasons

    IMDb 7.2

    Why this fits: The Four Seasons delivers the same comfort of long-term friends dealing with change, like Everyone Is Doing Great, but it spreads the discomfort across a whole group. You get ensemble banter, vacation settings that trap everyone in the same awkward circle, and humor that grows from small social missteps and mounting tension.

    • outsider awkwardness
    • generational jokes
  3. Evig singel poster

    Direct match

    TV 2 Play · Jun 12, 2026

    Evig singel

    Why this fits: Evig singel shares Everyone Is Doing Great’s cringe-adjacent humor, built from people trying too hard and paying for it in real time. The mockumentary style turns romantic misfires into awkward confession moments, with loneliness and secondhand embarrassment driving the pacing, darker and stranger than the buddy comedy warmth.

    • mockumentary
    • cringe humor

    Son of a Donkey

    IMDb 5.8
    Why this fits

    Everyone Is Doing Great leans on male friendship and awkward self-delusion, where small choices snowball into big, embarrassing growth. Son of a Donkey keeps the warm family comedy and father-son mishap-to-mishap momentum, but pushes harder toward feel-good reconciliation and adulting fails.

    • warm family comedy
    • father son comedy
    • mishap to mishap
  5. Survival of the Thickest poster

    Deeper cut

    Netflix · Jul 2, 2026

    Survival of the Thickest

    IMDb 7.5
    Why this fits

    Everyone Is Doing Great turns life-and-love awkwardness into mutual dependency, so every plan gets derailed by the people you rely on. Survival of the Thickest adds warm breakup comedy and workplace faux pas, with body-positive fashion and ageism pressure shaping the dating highs and lows.

    • warm breakup comedy
    • workplace faux pas
    • dating highs lows
  6. I Love LA poster

    Deeper cut

    MAX · Nov 2, 2025

    I Love LA

    IMDb 5.9
    Why this fits

    Everyone Is Doing Great is built around coming-of-age humor and life-and-love awkwardness that keeps friendships tangled in everyday mess. I Love LA trades that for friend-group reunion comedy and overlapping couples, using workplace rivalry and LGBTQ+ romance to keep the relationship friction front and center.

    • friend-group reunion
    • relationship comedy
    • lgbtq+ romance
