Underrated T.V. Shows

[Iono]

Supernaturals actual story is pretty interesting, the fillers kinda annoying tho.

I'm gonna miss John from Cincinnati. The world just isn't ready for a show of that quality Was fucking hilarious, imo. Just because of the clueless factor tho.

Drive pissed me off, FOX canceled it after, like , 3 episodes. . .

And The Black Donelly's was actually pretty good I thought

[BRP]

Uh... does the 4400 count?

EDIT: Or psycked? (spelling is probably off).

[finitek]

Surprised no one has mentioned "the 4400".

The series really started off with a lot of promise. Now in it's 4th season and it feels like the original writers went on hiatus and some amateurs x-file geeks took over. However all of the original characters are still compelling, and with "4400" potential individuals to use as story fodder you think they could stretch the show out for a long time.

Other than that I enjoy "Mad Men" on AMC; its a throughly compelling period peace that perfect captures the transition of American culture from the rigid wartime 50's to the 60's ideal of free and easy.

I'm older, and I don't have as much luxury time as I used to so these shows fill in the gaps nicely.

just my 2 cents.

Lost/South park/Family Guys/Robot chicken is the only thing I watch, but I wouldnt say any of those are underated

[Silviya]

Burn Notice

[Rainbowsax]

I really liked the Brak show.

[-Omni]

The Brak show was tight.

But I think, bar none, the show I wanted to see more of was Mission Hill.

That show was the best thing on Adult Swim and then one day it just disappeared. I was a very sad panda.

I saw an episode of "How I Met Your Mother" once, and enjoyed it, but haven't kept up with it. Dunno if it's underrated or not.

And, holy shit, I'm With Busey was motherfucking hilarious. I miss that show...

[Ace-o-fire]

Mission Hill.

I miss it too.

Samurai Jack, call me 5, but I loved that show.

[genjizero]

Strangers with Candy
Upright Citizen's Brigade

[Tyr]

Burn Notice

The promos for it were compelling, but I just couldn't bring myself to watch it. The only drama I watch is Damages.


And yes to I'm With Busey.

The O.C.. Mischa <3

...The OC is neither underrated nor underappreciated -- quite the opposite. Teen drama with no talent assclowns doing the acting. No thanks.

It's basically my high school <3

[Kriz]

I <3 Home Movies. It was so neat, and I was sad when it ended. Then sadder when the rumor popped up last year they'd restart, but no one ever heard of it.

Then I was a little happier when this weird show O'Grady came and had most of the HM cast, but then it died too.

Maybe I'm just a big H. Jon Benjamin and Melissa fan...

[Slapper]

The tick

[evilbau]

i'll throw in '6 feet under'

[Tyche]

I watched Blade: The series, and was also pretty upset over the axe of second season. Also really enjoyed "The Kill Point", although the ending sucked. Tilt was also a good series on ESPN.

[Vandole]

mission hill was so underrated.. if they showed it now it would be very popular.

[guartz]

Nobody mentioned Star Gate SG1?

Best.Show.Eva.Period

edit: o wait, would star gate qualify for an underrated show? If not, I'm changing my answer to Muha, ("Fly" in Russian, gooooood t.v show, sadly they don't make it no more)

[untouchable]

burn notice and always sunny at the same time this thur.. AAAHHH!!!

[Kaliden]

1) Arrested Development
2) Home Movies
3) Toss-up between Andy Richter CTU and Futurama. I like the latter much, much more, but a lot of people like it. I just think it's on par, if not better, than the Simpsons (barring the few critical seasons)

That was my exact list right there. Me and a friend watch Home Movies re-runs on DVD constantly and we're still finding hilarious stuff we never noticed before.

[aru]

i'll second home movies, mission hill and rome.
three shows that i really liked watching was the old sci-fi friday lineup of farscape, the invisible man and lexx. i wasnt able to get any of my friends into it though =/
