  1. Platonic poster

    Closest match

    AppleTV+ · Aug 6, 2025

    Platonic

    IMDb 7.2

    Why this fits: Platonic keeps the warm, awkward friendship pressure that Everyone Is Doing Great nails, with two people trying to rebuild closeness while adult life keeps getting in the way. The jokes land in uncomfortable social moments, marriages, and competing loyalties, but it stays more conversational and steadier than the celebrity-stagnation cringe.

    • adult friendship
    • old grudges
  2. Evig singel poster

    Direct match

    TV 2 Play · Jun 12, 2026

    Evig singel

    Why this fits: Evig singel delivers the same cringe-adjacent honesty as Everyone Is Doing Great, using a mockumentary format to squeeze laughs out of lonely romantic misfires. Watching earnest failures play out across multiple storylines gives you that familiar mix of secondhand embarrassment and quiet ache, with a darker, more solitary dating focus than the buddy-comedy core.

    • mockumentary
    • cringe humor
  3. Crap Happens poster

    Direct match

    Netflix · Feb 26, 2026

    Crap Happens

    IMDb 6.5

    Why this fits: Crap Happens shares Everyone Is Doing Great’s humor under real emotional strain, centering a man juggling grief and surprise parenthood while trying to keep his life together. The comedy comes from overwhelmed homecoming logistics and family obligation, so the warmth is there, but the stakes feel more immediate and messier than the slow deflation of past success.

    • grief comedy
    • surprise parenthood
  4. I Love LA poster

    Deeper cut

    MAX · Nov 2, 2025

    I Love LA

    IMDb 5.9

    Why this fits: I Love LA keeps the friend-group reunion energy going, with overlapping couples and workplace rivalry pulling everyone into messy relationship math. It’s more big-city nostalgia and romantic entanglement than Everyone Is Doing Great’s awkward self-delusion and mutual dependency.

    • friend-group reunion
    • relationship comedy
    • lgbtq+ romance
  5. Diary of a Ditched Girl poster

    Deeper cut

    Netflix · Sep 11, 2025

    Diary of a Ditched Girl

    IMDb 6.2

    Why this fits: Diary of a Ditched Girl leans into first-date comedy and dating app chaos, so the laughs come from romantic dead ends and modern love ambiguity. Compared to Everyone Is Doing Great’s male friendship and coming-of-age awkwardness, this one feels more sister-warm and explicitly dating-focused.

    • romantic dead ends
    • first-date comedy
    • friend-group energy
  6. Survival of the Thickest poster

    Deeper cut

    Netflix · Jul 2, 2026

    Survival of the Thickest

    IMDb 7.5

    Why this fits: Survival of the Thickest turns workplace reinvention and identity-forward humor into chosen-family comedy with New York nightlife as the backdrop. Where Everyone Is Doing Great centers on awkward self-delusion and mutual dependency, this pick adds roommate rivalry and betrayal-to-healing momentum.

    • chosen family comedy
    • identity-forward humor
    • new york nightlife
