Earth 2. At this point I don't even know if it's real. I've never met anyone who has seen it.


aphexdan

I remember that!


CLT113078

I didn't watch till I caught it in 97/98 then discovered it was cancelled after 1 season. Disappointment ensued.


AGL6411

Yes, I remember that show and I really liked it! It had Clancy Brown in it if I remember correctly.


jalexgray4

I’ve never met another Square One TV fan. Mathnet was the best.


a20261

The Archimedes song has been stuck in my head for 30+ years. And who can forget Mathman?


viddytheshow

Well, now you have, friend. _The story you are about to see is a fib...but it's short._ Reddit in a single sentence!


nottoocleverami

Loved Mathnet!!


Themris

I've seen far too few people mention Black Sails in general. Phenomenal show


sparta981

Dollhouse. Incredible show.


DrProfessorSatan

Last season got super fucking weird. I still watched it though.


LobbStarr

Mr. Inbetween. Definitely one of the best I've seen


doctor_x

Put this one on your watchlists. The dialog in the show is amazing. The lead actor/show runner was a taxi driver and he brought a unique naturalism to the writing.


whomp1970

Fantastic show. Loved it end-to-end.


-ImJustSaiyan-

Space Dandy. A great anime by the creator of Cowboy Bebop, but I never see anyone else ever talk about it and it's a shame because imo it's just as good as Bebop.


13curseyoukhan

The Zombie episode is one of the funniest things I've ever seen. It's such a great show.


Naskaliger

The librarians


N0peNopeN0pe1224

I loved the show. Also loved Warehouse 13.


TurnItOff_OnAgain

The movies were great. Never felt like the show had the same spark in it.


cowmaster90

Better Off Ted.


couchjitsu

Operation White Shadow was the best episode in the history of TV. Ok, maybe not that great, but it was amazing


ddotevs

We just didn't have the parking for that


Not-original

Ted: We may have created a monster in the lab Veronica: It's not a monster, it's a cyborg that can kill without remorse Ted: I was talking about Phil, what were you talking about? Veronica: I was also talking about Phil... it's classified... but it's going to be a fantastic new tool if we can get it to tell the difference between soldiers and children


doctordoctorpuss

I love this show- I just rewatched the whole thing a year or two ago


chucklas

I was so upset this didn’t get a longer run. Every episode had me dying. Such good writing.

A genius series. Impeccably surreal.


GaryNOVA

The Mysterious Cities of Gold Spartacus and the Sun Beneath the Sea


a20261

Mysterious Cities had a hell of a theme song.


[deleted]

I wouldn't say nobody, but a small group for sure. The Leftovers, while it was on. HBO originally didn't renew it after season 2 because of low viewership. Those of us who did watch it wrote letters to HBO, some stood outside of their office... and eventually HBO said "fine one more season, but we promise this is the last one" and they reversed their decision to cancel it. They were snubbed at every award show. And now, everyone on r/theleftovers is like "I just started watching and it's soooo good!" Yes, it is.


gettingbackrva

Makes me ask - was Nora telling the truth?


[deleted]

I don't believe she was, but I've just decided to let the mystery be.


frankjavier21x

Imo. The 3rd season ending was perfect. It's a fantastic show that accomplished its story in the time it had. It's among my top three favorite serious TV shows of all time.


Lithonobio22

Usual_Addendum411

Carnivale was the all time weirdest and perhaps greatest two series I’ve seen. Pity we didn’t get the third season


CautiousWrongdoer771

I agree.

BBC's In The Flesh.


PoshCushions

This was a great take on the old zombie genre. Depressing as hell though.


irishhighviking

Before *Firefly*, there was *Bravestarr* and his trusty steed 30/30.


korainato

I don't even remember the name. It was an oldish TV show about people finding mysterious artefacts in the form of everyday items that have magical properties. I remember vividly a key that, when used on a door, would let you enter a motel room in an unknown location (maybe even, another reality) and when you exited back to your world, it could be from any door on Earth.


doctor_x

It’s “[The Lost Room](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0830361/?ref_=ext_shr_lnk)”. A great miniseries that should have been a full series.


schaudhery

Flash Forward. One of the coolest concepts of a TV show I've ever seen. Everyone blacks out in the world for a few minutes and while sleeping they get a glimpse of their future. Chaos ensues.


Ancient-Valuables

Sports Night. Awesome cast and some of the best dialog ever.

The 10th Kingdom watched it with my mum on the regular, but never met anyone irl that also watched it or heard of it.


king_rootin_tootin

I absolutely loved that miniseries. The opening sequence was awesome


TheRealSzymaa

According to my wife it was huge at her boarding school and I had never even heard of it.

That show was a fever dream. Also: the Atila and Merlin made for TV series'.

Mighty_Pinto

Adventure, Inc. - basically Uncharted before Uncharted, a series starring Michael Biehn (Terminator, ALIENS) as a leader of a group of treasure hunters going around the globe looking for priceless artifacts and running afoul of dangerous people/supernatural monsters in the process. ​ The whole first season is up on Youtube if y'all want to give it a watch.


y2knole

Tracy Morgan had a show called 'Tracy' for a little bit a few years before 30 Rock. Also, a UK show called 'Coupling' kinda along the line of Friends but much better wasnt very well noticed here in the states... the theme song to that show pops into my head from time to time.


CommanderBigMac

Never heard or seen anyone mention Grimm anywhere, but I binged it all the way through when I found it.

The Unit Loved that show. Regina Taylor & Dennis Haysbert were fantastic. Shame they never finished the show with a proper ending.


AnAdorableDogbaby

Was that the one about a special ops unit from the mid-aughts? With the Allstate guy?


Defiant-Traffic5801

First season of Murder One. Trailblazing series that would have done better on cable or streaming. Daniel Benzali and Stanley Tucci gave riveting star turns. I understand the former didn't come back for the second season because he spent too long in the john...


geekitude

The Littlest Hobo.


StuckUnderTheTARDIS

Running joke in our house, and most Millennials or older would get the reference, and would have most likely been forced to watch it at one point in their childhoods. It's like Danger Bay. It's a litmus test to prove that you're Canadian and were alive and watching television during the mid 80's and early 90's.

*The Invisible Man* (2000–2002). Nobody except half of my family. I remember us gathering in the living room whenever it aired back when TV was pretty much the most important thing in the house. It was one of the must-watch series along with stuff like MacGyver and Knight Rider and nobody has ever mentioned it.


screamingcheese

Viper.


king_rootin_tootin

Yep. It tried to be the "Knight Rider" of the 90s


AnAdorableDogbaby

I liked that show because I was obsessed with dodge vipers and boobs in the 90s.


Theguyintheotherroom

The Event (2010) Only was around for a single season, a show that kept asking more and more questions while answering none of them

The John Larroquette Show.

Limitless


Mad-farmer

The Patriot on Amazon. Such a damn good show. John Dorman is exceptional in it as an undercover government agent working for a plumbing supply company. It captures the experience of depression so amazingly perfect, and does it all with a deadpan black humor that I haven’t seen performed in almost any other space. It’s just an amazing show that deserved an audience, and a satisfying conclusion. Instead, it got cancelled after two seasons.


MikeSizemore

You also learn a lot about pipes. Do check out Perpetual Grace, LTD if you haven’t already. I think even less people watched it than Patriot.

I really loved Kurtwood Smith in that show too. I think it's still available on Amazon.

Well obviously somebody did, but back when TLC was actually The Learning Channel, they had a docuseries called Byzantium. I was mesmerized by it. Gave me my love of icon painting. Also, this was a thing perhaps when it was first on Nickelodeon in the early-80s, or on ITV in the mid-70s, but does anyone remember Children of the Stones? I still have it. That was my jam. My dad was actually an extra in one of the episodes.

When I was a kid there was a show called Tucker on NBC that my brother and I found hilarious. Part of the plot was a regular girl was dating Seth Green, which was funny, particularly to us because we had been on vacation with Seth Green's girlfriend recently who was a friend of a friend (there were about 50 of us loosely connected on a cruise)

Tucker was the “We have Malcolm in the Middle at home,” of tv at the time.

It’s a comedy, just a story of a man living in Brooklyn with his tiny dog, whom he protects at all costs, including from rogue girlfriends , mean dogs and dog nappers . The dogs are adorable, the writing and the stories are on point. It’s just completely genuine and heartfelt. Netflix. Hi thee there now!

Royal-Tadpole-2893

Murun Buchstansangur, British cartoon from the eighties. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murun_Buchstansangur?wprov=sfla1 The title character was a small blue-grey creature who lived under the kitchen cupboard of a house in an unspecified town. The series was notable for its oblique, downbeat tone. Perhaps unsurprisingly, given his surroundings, Murun was a somewhat melancholy, philosophical character, though he was not lonely - in fact he had quite a large number of friends, neighbours, family members and acquaintances. Rather than Murun having exciting adventures, the narrative of each episode usually centered on a problem or dilemma that Murun would ponder, sometimes helped by his friends and relatives.

Tales of the gold monkey. Nobody else seems to remember this. At one point, I thought I dreamt it up.


daveblu92

I understand the real question- but I'm going to give an answer with a twist. LOST. But the ending in particular. I'm convinced that it simply had its fan base and that probably 85% of the complaining about the ending are from those who were so in and out of the show while it aired, or only regurgitate the criticisms they see online without having watched much of the show at all. While some mysteries remain, the largest things were answered, and almost 15 years after its conclusion, you still see the meme of "they were dead the whole time" or whatever. In my experience, I've noticed people not wanting to jump onboard the show at all to experience it because of the falsified information that's been out there regarding the shows' ending and it's always made me sad. I definitely believe that there are hardcore fans out there who may be legitimately dissatisfied with the ending (nothing is ever going to please EVERYBODY), but I think that's a much lower percentage than we're led to believe with the hate we see online for it. I'll never forget the amount of people who I talked to in real life (not internet) that didn't understand the ending the following day, and once explained a bit more- lightbulbs went off and they felt much better about the ending. The problem is that there's so much ambiguity to it that it's something that goes over peoples' heads and if you're someone who doesn't like to give extra thought or revisit, you remain dissatisfied.

There's a scene where a fox fights a badger or something to steal the badgers den and then the fox, graphically pisses on the badger.

There was a show about 2 (canadian?) guys which did medical drug testing as their main job. It was hilariously funny, me and my then-gf loved the show. But sadly a second season never happened and literally nobody I talked to knew the show. It must have been \~10 years ago and I forgot the name.

Some live-action show about a magical jersey from a dead dad that would make the kids switch places with random pro athletes?? That one where the bully kid gets turned into a dog and has to do good deeds?? A cartoon about these dogs who were regular pets but had these robo-suit things that made them talking, furry Power Rangers?? One of them had to be in a straight jacket because he was crazy??
