What film, show or game that is not necessarily 'underated' didn't have the level of social impact it deserved. (slrpnk.net)

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.

The Mick! I'm not good at explaining why shows are great, why people should watch them, or why they should have been more popular, unfortunately..but I had to link this anyway since I didn't see it mentioned. It ended with a seriously heavy cliffhanger that comes out of nowhere and then...Fox cancelled the next season that the writers were told they would have. So it just kind of...ended. They did a shit job at properly advertising it and totally dicked it around. This show was way better than I thought it would be and I even tried to watch it and ended up abandoning it because it didn't grab me, but I gave it another chance and stuck it out and I'm so glad I did. It deserved so much better.
