There have been a veritable ton of amazing shows from Adult Swim that flew under the radar. My three favorite are:

Dream Corp LLC
Your Pretty Face is Going to Hell
The Heart, She Holler

Dream Corp was my favourite, sad it didn't continue. Early Mark Proksch is fucken gold.

Others have already recommended Pushing Daisies, Wonderfalls, and Galavant. All are worth another mention.

I'm surprised only one other person mentioned Final Space. At first glance you might think, "Oh, it's just a Rick and Morty knock off." You'd be wrong. It's much more Futurama in tone than it is Rick and Morty. I'm not afraid to admit Final Space is the only cartoon I've watched as a grown man that made me cry. On multiple occasions. It hits you right in the feels, hard.

No Heroics, only lasted a few seasons in the UK which means only maybe 12 episodes. (You may also see some actors from Ted Lasso if you look carefully.)

Sprung - about a group of small time cons trying to do the right thing and con only bad guys in the community while surviving covid and falling into a found family. Very funny and sincere.

Flash Foward was an interesting series, sadly it end on a major cliffhanger and was never continued.

ZeroZeroZero is a great crime mini series about the drugs trade. Stellar cast.
