"Peep Show" and now also "The Mitchell and Webb Look" because of the former. Both of them are damn good comedies

Have you seen David and Robb's latest sketch show?

Michell and Webb are not helping

The UK version of Utopia

Fuck Amazon's version in the face

How old does it need to be in order to be considered niche by virtue of its age rather than by its original success or lack thereof?

I don’t know, but nobody in my life wants to talk about DS9

Lemme do two shows:

Kings just had a premise too esoteric for this world. It was like a retelling of the story of king David set in modern times in a constructed world that's like ours though the Bible doesn't exist within that world. There's all sorts of remixed biblical strangeness in it.

Jericho was like if one of those "mystery box" shows actually had a thought out plot that moved forward. Nuclear explosions go off around the country, not-Blackwater PMC guys work for not-Dick Cheney, and the main characters just keep getting sucked in to a ramp up for a post apocalyptic civil war.

Jericho actually got better in the second season which I found surprising. But I haven't seen kings, I'll check it out.

Constantine starring Matt Ryan (2014-2015). TV show, one season cliffhanger. Pissed me off when they Firefly'ed it.

Can I do three? Reaper, Dark Matter (2015) and The Lost Room.

The quintessential example of this category: the pointless, yet hilarious improv comedy podcast recapping all 431 episodes of the 1960s series Bonanza: Bonanas for Bonanza ← YouTube explanation on Conan O'Brien Feeds a Friend (sic).

I was hesitant to jump in despite loving Daly and Gourley, since I couldn't give two sh¡ts about the show. But the show is not at all the point. It's merely the premise that keeps the train on its tracks. So maybe it's just the most ironic example of this category.

Ive been watching the brazilian version of The Office. Its pretty good. Very short though. Its called "Os Aspones", and takes place in a forgotten governemntal department.

Wonder just how many decades until Lost can be considered "niche"

I am well into Avatar obsession. It’s lived rent free in my brain too long.
