Have you watched the new Time Bandits show on Apple TV? It's based on the old movie. There's a whole episode where they fall into a 1700s French socialite party where the Earl of Sandwich--or whatever his name is--has rented a pineapple in order to have a pineapple viewing party. The episode was one of the funniest ones this season, highly recommend it.

I only saw the first episode, it was ok but it felt too childish for my taste.

It definitely improves from there since pilots have to spend time introducing the world, characters, etc. But yeah, if you don't like British/New Zealand style humor, particularly that which pays much homage to Monty Python and Terry Gilliam movies, then it won't be appealing.
