5 Episodes Of Shows From This Decade That Will Make Your Heart Happy

I want you to be happier...

With everything going on in the world, sometimes you need something to help you escape. While there may be a literal dumpster fire going on outside, at least you can watch some quality television. This has been a major decade for television, so let's look back on some our favorite episodes of TV from this past decade that are sure to boost your mood.

1. "Janet(s)" from "The Good Place" 2018

NBC

Mike Schur, the creator of the show, is a master at making people happy. He's created some of the most memorable sitcoms of the past decade. However, something is a bit different about his big hit "The Good Place." Not only does this show handle deep topics of death in a hilarious way, but it also provides us with little philosophy lessons that we can use in our own life. This episode though is a super fun one! Actress D'arcy Carden plays not only her character Janet, but she plays almost every single member of the soul squad. Nothing makes me happier than seeing Carden to a spot on impression of Kristin Bell!

2. "Leslie and Ben" from "Parks and Recreation" 2013

NBC

There are very few things that are better than a wedding...and that thing is a wedding that goes wrong, but mysteriously turns out right. Not only are Leslie and Ben everyone's OTP, but they make each other so happy. In this episode aptly named "Leslie and Ben" the dynamic duo get hitched, but not before literally EVERYTHING goes wrong. In the end these two get married at City Hall with all of their closest friends around them. My heart...

3. "Sticky Hands and a Walk On The Wild Side" from "Mom" 2016

Monty Brinton / CBS

The concept of this show shouldn't make it such a quirky comedy, but Anna Faris and Allison Janney just make this such a sweet and funny show. The episode does not start light. All of the girls are dealing with the aftermath of a recent loss, but Bonnie decides to try to cheer everyone up with a trip to Canada that ends up putting them in a sticky situation that they didn't anticipate.

4. "Flu-ouise" From "Bob's Burgers" 2016

FOX

"Bob's Burgers" always makes me happy. All of the characters are quirky and sincerely love each other. In "Flu-ouise" Louise comes down with the flu and starts to experience hallucinations that include all of her toys in a weird "Wizard of Oz" lucid dream. It's silly, it's nonsense, and it is peak comfort watching content.

5. "Halloween' From "Brooklyn Nine-Nine" 2013

NBC

This was the episode that started it all for the precinct's best tradition, the Halloween heist. All of the heist episodes are hilarious, but the first one holds a special place in all of our hearts. Nothing is more fun than seeing all of the team work together to trick that one unlucky member of the nine-nine.
