What’s the antithesis of Arrested Development, Firefly or The Big Lebowski? Those may never have ‘found their audience’ but over time seemed to recognised by everyone. What are the deep cuts that you liked but it feels like everyone has completely forgotten they even existed.

    I don’t know if this fits the category, but Warehouse 13 was pretty solid in my opinion. It’s cheesy/campy and some of the characters start off pretty much unlikeable, but when it hits its stride the relationships and character growth that are explored are deep on a human level. It has some fun quirky, hand-wavey technobabble to explain things, but the series finale left me emotional and honestly in a state of with wonder and curiosity that I hadn’t felt in a long time. Worth watching through the show at least once.

    Little Miss Sunshine

    Hilarious indie comedy. I’ve never heard of anyone disliking it, but it also almost never gets brought up.

      Yes! I was thinking of this when I wrote the question. I feel like it was great and just totally disappeared.

      I kept thinking about it’s parody ads when all those ‘we’re in this together’ ads kept playing during the start of the pandemic.

    Farscape was an absolutely fantastic show with one of the best villains ever. Characters were well thought out, they had motivations you could understand and showed character growth. Highly recommend for anyone who hasn’t seen it.
