12 Monkeys the TV show. I’ve never met anyone that has even heard of it, and I really enjoyed it! Same main characters as the movie, more or less, but a more involved story. Very satisfying, tidy ending.
I forgot to add on my first post:
Dare to Believe - Weird UK sketch show
Better Off Ted
I forget the name of it, but you might enjoy the show rob lowe is currently doing on Netflix can’t remember the name
Edit Unstable is the name of the show
Danger 5. Greatest Australian comedy of all time. https://youtu.be/0Z09bNgSeMI
This was hilarious. Every episode final ending somewhat the same way 👌
The trailer sold me on it, downloading now
It’s so good. I watch it once a year
Haven’t seen these mentioned yet:
Fringe
Killjoys
The Leftovers - 2% of the worlds population just vanishes. Enough to freak people out but not cause the complete collapse of civilization.
The Endgame - High class criminal commits crimes by way of getting herself arrested. There’s only 1 season. Ignore the last ~10 minutes of the last episode and the story wraps up fine.
Counterpart - Mid-level bureaucrat finds out there’s a doorway to a parallel dimension with whom the world’s been in a secret cold war
Being Erica
Forever Knight
La femme Nikita (Peta Wilson version)
Space above and Beyond
Sliders
Doraleus and Associates (web series)
Dr Horribles Singalong Blog (is this okay for this list?)
Due South
Celebrity Deathmatch
Ask a Ninja (early YouTube channel)
Oh man, Ask a Ninja just unlocked a core memory that I had buried. What a perfect example of early Internet comedy.
Space above and beyond died too young. It was such an awesome scifi show with some really mind blowing good episodes
I would disagree with due south and being Erica but to each own.
Gosh I was gonna say “perfect”. Though to be fair I haven’t rewatched Being Erica and it did happen at exactly that time on my life, so was very relatable.
Due South is a treasure. No notes.
Disagree for them flirting under the radar or you wouldn’t recommend them or both?
Due south was pretty big and so was being Erica but I wouldn’t put it up there with corner gas or trailer park boys. Those changed lives.
They were big, but 20+years later they are pretty under the radar now
These don’t seem obscure to me but most folks I know have never heard of them:
What We Do in the Shadows
Sealab 2021
Parks and Rec
Party Down
Freaks and Geeks
Venture Bros
If you liked what we do in the shadows…
Wellington Paranormal - it’s about the police tasked with investigating all the dumb shit that goes on in what we do in the shadows. Gold.
Sealab 2021 is classic Adult Swim. Same with Venture Bros. Love them both!
Do you live in Serbia or something?
Party Down is great. I also realized I’ve been sleeping on the 3rd season revival.

Are we having fun yet.
I know like 3 people that have seen party down and 2 of them watched it with me.
-
Odyssey 5 (Only lasted a season, but damn…)
-
Boardwalk Empire (for some reason the least talked about and most forgotten HBO show)
-
Into the Badlands (Deserved a longer life. Great martial arts action in a post-apocalypse)
-
First Wave (Nostrodamus, Conspiracy theories and the first wave of an secret Alien invasion)
-
Seven Days (The younger lapaglia brother jumps back in time 7 days to prevent various threats)
-
Sense8 (strangers from all over the world find themselves linked mentally for some reason)
-
Kim’s Convenience
Seconded
Patriot. On Amazon prime. Dark comedy. CIA and government ineptitude.
Honestly, great show. I don’t know what I expected, but it was so much better.
Hell yeah
Corner Gas, brilliant comedy about a tiny Saskatchewan town set around a gas station that is connected to a diner and the oddball people that live there.
You’ll come for the quaint setting, stay for the Jackass screaming Oscar.
The Patriot on amazon is one of my favourite tv shows of all time. Tragically cancelled but each episode is outstanding. Nobody’s seen it!
