You say the 'watch parties' are too much, but these are actually the events that are the best. They are at 8p, people come over when their kids are in bed, we have 4-10 people show up, everyone's in their sweat pants, and we watch a TV episode. We discuss it for 10-15m afterwards, and we generally part ways.
It's such a low-effort and small event, and it allows people to get into other people's homes in a low-judgement way. It's been one of the more successful events at getting neighbors to become friends with each other.

- mrweasel 1y ago> We discuss it for 10-15m afterwards Yeah, that sounds awful. That's the great part though, everyone can participate on their own terms. Do the stoop coffee, do the watch parties, whatever they feel energizes them and brings joy. It's such a great initiative.
