Letterkenny (2016)
Kim’s Convenience tells the story of a Korean Canadian family who owns and operates a convenience shop in Toronto. One of the better comedy movies on this list.
The sitcom is a generally accurate portrayal of first-generation immigrants, and the cultural clashes that they face on the show are brilliant, especially when the daughter’s heights are set higher than taking over the store.
Mr. Kim’s expectations of his children are some of the finest episodes, and there isn’t another TV show that tackles the topic in such a comical yet truthful way. In its first season, the show averaged 933,000 viewers per episode and was praised by Vulture as “both a balm and a riot.”
Monty Python and the Holy Grail (1975)
