Movies or shows with recovery in central theme?

Anyone know of any good movies or shows featuring sobriety or recovery as the main theme or where the main characters are in recovery? I find watching things with sobriety in the main theme really comforting and educational.
I've been watching Love and Maron on Netflix...

I'm really enjoying Love too. Half way through series 2 at the moment. I listen to WTF podcast and enjoy listening to Maron's take on recovery - but I haven't seen his show yet. Is it good?

SSOH,
I think Marin's show on Netflix is good. I really appreciate his storytelling, as I am someone who really gets turned off by sugar coating or stories of purity or religious takes on sobriety. I still don't know how much of these stories are fact, they're pretty hilariously plausible though. I think it's very well written.
