For me if I had to pick a good contender it would be the UK version of The Office.
I know many tend to debate how Ricky Gervais really fell off and how he repugnantly acts like a whiny centrist edgelord but me personally IMO I actually don’t think he was ever funny not even a little.
His big break through television was just so painful to sit through it’s so charismatically boring the characters are completely generic at best (notably Tim) or straight up insufferably unlikable at worst (especially the protagonist David FUCKING Brent) and most importantly the humour is just embarrassing.
Always seemed like The Thick Of It but without the nuisance tongue in cheek and charming satire.
Johnny Cash for sure but a modern example is Sera Cahoone. Give her Couch Song a listen.
Another great is Lucero. Fucking amazing country rock! The album Nobody’s Darlings is one of my absolute favorites.
Neko Case is always amazing.
Ben Nichols, the lead singer of Lucero, has an album based on Blood Meridian call The Last Pale Light in the West that is absolutely phenomenal as well.
Hell yeah, its always in my playlists. Really captures each of the characters in Blood Meridian very well
