Since I’ve seen no mention of it, I have to say Leverage.
Leverage follows a five-person team: a thief, a grifter, a hacker, and a retrieval specialist or “hitter”, led by former insurance investigator Nathan Ford, who use their skills to carry out heists to fight corporate and governmental injustices inflicted on ordinary citizens.
I freely admit the structure of the episodes becomes a little stale after a while (the team starts a con against the episode villain(s), things go south, and then either they improvise a solution or it’s revealed they already anticipated the issue), but for me the chemistry between the cast keeps the show entertaining to the end.
It’d without a doubt my most rewatched TV series, a comfort show of sorts.
I can’t say anything about the reboot (Redemption) as I’ve not got around to watch it yet.

Leverage is pure comfort watch. So fun. And might even learn a thing or two.
Btw if you don’t mind British humor, Hustle, is/was also a great watch.
Similar themes and con of the week but the characters and power dynamics make it shine. Would recommend!
