Try some European stuff? These are all excellent and non-violent: - Normal People - Call my agent (Dix pour cent) - Fleabag

Funny, Normal People comes out of Ireland, historically a very sexually repressed nation under the thumb of the Catholic Church. Times are changing rapidly in Ireland though.

Fleabag was fantastic, highly recommended.

Fleabag was brilliant but the first season was a very difficult watch towards the end.

I would recommend it to anyone but don't think it's just a laugh.

My favorite Netflix show set in Paris is "The Eddy".
