The Patriot on prime is the best show nobody's watched. It doesn't have a single bad episode, the plot, dialogue, acting and production values are outstanding. It was cancelled after 2 seasons but is still really satisfying. Absolutely love it!

An annual rewatch for me. Absolutely love that show. It’s so funny, poignant. Just A+ work from the team.
Me too! It's pretty much perfect
Lodge 49, Lodge 49, Lodge 49! Probably one of my top 5 shows in the last decade. Every single review I have ever seen both professional and rando cannot stop raving about it, but still nobody watched it. I think mostly because it's kind of hard to describe and doesn't fit cleanly into any particular box.
Only downside is that it suffered a pretty sudden cancellation after season 2 was shot, so there is no satisfying resolution. Although Wyatt Russell has said repeatedly that he'd drop absolutely any project for a chance to revive it
A shame it was cancelled. A rare show where I was more interested in hanging with the characters then the main plot.
Terriers.
Turn was a good series. It’s about spies during the American Revolution
Better off Ted. Funny stuff.
Remember WENN. A performance driven comedy that takes place almost completely at a radio station in the 40s. Has a very theater play feel.
Clever dialog and great acting.
Younger people should watch Taxi. It didn't fly under the radar but it's old enough to be fresh even if you've seen it. My favorite new discovery for sure
Off the top of my head, Oz and The Americans are under-appreciated.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/N%C3%A6turvaktin and its sequel series are really good, if we want to go proper-obscure.
I quite liked Continuum, but it never seemed to enter the zeitgeist. It is still one of my favorite time travel series'.
Best show I’ve seen in the past couple years is a single season mini series called “The Investigation” a Danish series about a true murder that occcurre and the investigation into it following. Really well done.
Star Trek Prodigy!
Shatter Belt. It's like Black Mirror used to be. I absolutely loved it.
BBC’s “Survivors”. The 1970s original, not the later remake. About the people left over after a pandemic.
1971 “The Guardians” also from BBC. About fascism in a near future UK.
“Thriller” another British show from 1974. It’s an anthology series centered around a mystery/suspense/horror story each week. The Helen Mirren and Bob Hoskins episodes are particularly good.
Ooh check out The Colony
Slings and Arrows
Wise Guy and Crime Story.
Just Shoot Me.
