Eerie, Indiana. It's an older show, but a great Twilight zone type show geared toward kids. A boy moves to a new town- Eerie, Indiana - and only he seems to noticed the weird unsettling things that happen there. kinda silly, kinda creepy.

I had to add another one that is kind of a cheat but Mystery Science Theater 3000 aka MST3K. Our Saturday mornings were spent watching a bunch of puppets make fun of B-Movies, TV Movies, TV Shows, and old commercials. It helps to give you a better perspective on what a bad movie really is.

"The Tribe," a dramatic TV series developed by a New Zealand company, Cloud 9. Sort of a modernized "Lord of the Flies." All the adults were killed by a plague. The kids form into factions. Drama ensues. I watched it with my daughter when she was a tween, and it was really good.

Okay, not sure if it counts as “unknown” but I LOVE LOVE LOVE Doki Doki Literature Club. For anyone who doesn’t know, the game’s a twisted dating simulator, in which you join a literature club with four girls, Natsuki, Yuri, Monika, and Sayori. It starts off cute and fun but ends up… a lot less so.

Utopia, a Brittish scifi drama from 2013/14.
Very dark, disturbing and kind of predicting the Corona vitus.
The music and artwork alone are reasons enough to checking it out, but the story and acting is equally great.
It was way ahead of it's time and unfortunately it was cancelled after 2 seasons. If it was made today, it would get 6 seasons and a movie. You can find it on YouTube, check it out!

Oh god, please don't say from 1900's when talking about something I loved as a kid. I know, technically it was from the 1900's but I'm not 100 years old, and don't want to feel that way. Quantum Leap was great though. I never really the D**k van Dyke show though. Just not my strain of humor.

I got into this show recently called The Legend of Vox Machina.
It's an animated show based on a web show called Critical Role, where a bunch of voice actors play Dungeons and Dragons, and their adventures are made into an adult animated cartoon (full of violence, sexual content, swearing, and everything you would expect to give a show an 18+ rating).
I'll admit to not being a big D&D fan, but I became a fan of this show, and finished both seasons recently.

"Dark".
Hardest series to interpret. It has multiple timeliness, parallel universes, quantum theories, and everything a Sci fi series should have. With its melancholic tone, this is the most serious yet best series I've ever watched. Many people give up on it in first few episodes but I recommend you to continue it. The season 3 will mess up with all of your mind.
Other series which I like that most people don't know are
1) Gotham
2)Marvel's agents of shield
3) Asur

American Gothic, 1995. A TV show about a Southern American sheriff who didn't carry a gun, and devoted his life to keeping his family together, like Andy Griffith.
However, this sheriff has occult powers and is completely evil, the 180 degree opposite of Andy Griffith.
Sheriff Buck is played by “Bill Lundburgh” from Office Space, and most weirdly ‘Gothic was created by Shaun Cassidy: the “Beebs” of the 1970’s

NEWS RADIO!
It's not that nobody knows about it, it's just that the people who do know about it know it's the best sitcom of all time. The first three episodes are amazing and set off a stellar series. And the premise of the pilot episode is so bizarre and witty. It had a good tradjectory from the start. Plus, it had an amazing and star packed cast.

Weird 13 y.o. answering here, but honestly if there is anyone out there under the age of like, 10, you should look at TTS. I know the movie if for little kids but the series is way better and the characters are better written tbh. I mostly watch it for the characters specific the the show tho cuz the ones from the movie are too cliché for me. Even though this is meant for like, 7 year olds its still my fav cuz it has really good music and is perfect fanart material. So if ur that weird human who’s probs too old to be watching cartoons but still does anyways, ur gonna love this series. Also no one knows about it and if you can see past the kinda cheesy storyline it can be rly good

Oh man, so many brilliant jokes and running gags in this show. Absolutely amazingly funny. Even the sound is expertly done, some actors get seperate overdubs, making it even stranger. Also the deliberate editing and continuity errors show how much thought and energy went into making this.

"The Shield" was and still is an amazing TV-series
"Baa Baa Black Sheep" is a great series with an amazing cast (many might be put of by the WWII setting though)

"My Mother the Car". The great Jerry Van Dyke, playing a wimpy lawyer/family man, buys a 1928 Porter (a completely fictional car), then discovers it is the reincarnation of his mother. She speaks to him through the radio (voiced by Anne Southern), giving him sage advice and many stupid wisecracks. Avery Schreiber plays Captain Mancini, a fanatical and very hairy antique auto collector who will do anything to buy the car for his collection. "My Mother the Car" lasted one whole season (1965 - 1966), was spectacularly stupid and very unfunny. It is considered the worse show in TV history. I LOVE IT!!!!

"The Last Ship" (From Wikipedia):
At the helm of the USS Nathan James en route to the Arctic, Capt. Tom Chandler learns that the destroyer will be in the best possible place -- a circumstance his crew must utilize -- to save humanity from extinction. A virus has wiped out more than half the population since the ship embarked, and despite orders from the U.S. government to return, Chandler -- believing home is now a shadow of itself -- decides the safest place to develop a vaccine is at sea. That task falls mainly to virologist Dr. Rachel Scott, a civilian originally assigned to the Nathan James to study birds. "The Last Ship" is based on a novel by William Brinkley and is executive-produced by filmmaker Michael Bay
Used to be available on Crave but it "disappeared"... kinda like they stopped playing "New Orleans is Sinking" on the radio for a while after Katrina

One of the oldest games that I remember playing on PC was Shanghai: A Mahajongg game where you match the tiles to clear the board. From the music to tile types, it was so much fun. It longer works sadly for it was designed for Windows 98 😅 It's not traditional video game but hope my answer fits here!

Grimm for sure and the original Quantum Leap but also two maybe obscure shows nobody mentioned. One called Pushing Daisies I think. The other was a show called The Nine. It was about nine people held hostage during a bank robbery and was pulled off the air midway thru the season. Due to fan outcry the network put the last four episodes online for a limited time. Not available to Canadian viewers. Shoutout to AOL ( not in Canada at that time) so I was able to view them. Never did explain why the one woman came out with her hair chopped off though!

I think I have one that's a bit of a cop out answer for why people don't know it, but Super Robot Wars.
The reason why the series is not really known is because most of the games were not released outside of Asian regions, like Japan, China, or Korea. The only ones I'm aware of that came out in North America were Endless Frontier on the DS (though incredibly rare, and will cost a lot on eBay), and the four most recent games, SRW V, T, X, and 30 (only on Steam). However, these games have been released in English for systems like the PS4, PS Vita, and Switch, though you will have to import a physical copy (and those systems are not region locked, so you can play it on there with no problem).
In gameplay, it's your standard grid based strategy RPG, where knowing where to put your characters is key. Where it stands out is with it's roster of characters, the attack animations, and the music.
Aside from an original protagonist, your teammates consist of a different roster of characters from various mech anime. While the cast is mostly different from game to game, there are characters from Gundam, Getter Robot, Mazinger Z (these first three being considered the "Big 3" franchises to appear in most of the games), Code Geass, Evangelion and Gurren Lagann featured in different games.
The attack animations in the game are references to the moves that these mechs perform in their respective shows, and their battle themes are the opening themes of their respective anime.
If not for a game called Project X Zone, I would not have discovered Super Robot Wars.

I think project zomboid gets overlooked for its general appearance but it honestly is very fun, quite difficult at times and is one of those games, especially when you go in without prior info, that just repeatedly surprises you. It's the sort of game where everything can change in an instant and I like games that encourage new play styles. I like that too gain good characteristics you must take negative ones, I think that's a great mechanic. But anyway, yeah for an indie game, it's incredibly polished and fun.

Change is a video game that will always need more love, more attention. It was made by like 1 dude and is a very well made, heart breaking game that is honestly pretty realistic. It doesn't make fun of our make light of homelessness but instead makes an experience like no other. The main reason why I think it deserves even more love though is the fact that it has been out for like 10yrs and is still being worked on, it still gets updates and you can just tell how much passion the dev has for it. Unlike other games too, it doesn't have a tonne of paid dlcs (I'm looking at you dead cells), the game itself doesn't need the 1 dlc it has but it added a fair amount of content and new challenges that i think it makes it enhances the game.
I also like that they added additional 'stories' if what issues some people would face, it is inspiring and equal parts bleak... kind of This War of Mine misery vibes.
I have played it since like a very early release and it still gets me. Nothing is better than succeeding but this is not a game you usually win.

Hopefully, this last one will be the one I mention, but another franchise I love is the Valkyria Chronicles series.
To give it a comparison to another series for gameplay, it's very much some of the X-Com games, where you have to strategically place your units in certain areas (including behind cover, or concealed) to get the advantage on the enemy units.
Each character has their own quirks that make them unique, both for the better or worse (for example, some soldiers might be allergic to pollen, so having them near flowers will make them perform worse).
The art style is amazing. It mixes 3D models with cell-shading, and an anime aesthetic amazingly. Everything in this game looks amazing.
I think the biggest reasons why this series is not as known is for the following;
1: The series released on inconsistent platforms. Before re-releases, the first game was on PS3, the two following games were PSP exclusives, and the fourth game was released on the last generation of consoles (PS4, Xbox One, Switch, and Windows).
2: The third game was never released outside of Japan due to the low sales of the second game (I think some of that can be blamed for moving the second game from a console to handheld system).
3: The first game released in a busy few months of 2008, November. October had the first Dead Space and Far Cry 2 as notable releases, Left 4 Dead 2 would release two weeks after Valkyria Chronicles, and early December would see GTA 4 come out. And right before Christmas, I think most teens would have asked for one of those aforementioned games instead.
The first game is more accessible with re-releases, so I'd strongly recommend this series.

Yes !! This is on my top 10 RPG list (number 5 or 6) The First VC blew my mind, it's such a refreshing gameplay, and the story is very good too. The Fourth VC has amazing gameplay, The overall story is also great. But the character acting seems... ummm...juvenile ? childish ? more like a shonen (teenager) type character instead of seinen (adult)

Plenty of people know about it, but it came as a surprise to me. I was coming home from work on a Friday and learned that my wife would not be there. So I stopped at a family fun center that I'd been noticing on my commute during the week. They had a Virtual Reality setup and I gave it a whirl. Breaking a sweat with the body movements, I thought the investment might be justified, to purchase a headset for myself. Then I found a game that I and many others play almost exclusively on that format. They say its like a 3-D version of Fortnite, called Population One. I was never a gamer before, so I wouldn't know. But I've played it almost 7,000 times now and really enjoy the comradery created between squad members. Doctors, police, retied professionals and of course plenty of school kids are my "friends " from around the world.

Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice
It's a video game, and the sequel is coming out within the next year (I think). You play as Senua, a Norse woman battling to save the soul of her dead lover from the Norse god Hela. There is a lot of Norse and Celtic mythology throughout the game.
I've been a gamer since I was little (my first console was an Atari), and I've never played anything else like this game. The immersion you get with the main character is mind-blowing. She suffers from psychosis, and you can hear the voices in her head througout the game (they literally have psychologists listed in the opening credits). There is some combat and puzzle solving, but the heart and focal point of the game is the storytelling and the visuals. Play it on Xbox Series S or X, if you can (I think it's free on Gamepass, so you can probably also play it on PC). It's relatively short, I think about 7 to 8 hours for a full playthrough.
The graphics for the sequel look INSANE, and I would urge you to check out the teaser/gameplay trailers on youtube. Whatever your expectations, you will not be disappointed.

If you're like me, and trust IMDB ratings, then I'll let you know it's currently sitting at an 8.3/10 (for reference, there are only 23 TV shows in history that have a score of 9 or higher on IMDB, with the highest score being the nature documentary Planet Earth 2 which scored 9.4)

Fernwood 2 Night with Martin Mull and his sidekick Fred Willard. Their skits and songs were hysterical. A comical Tonight Show spoof.

From Wikipedia: The series stars Inger Stevens as Katy Holstrum, a young Swedish woman who becomes the housekeeper for widowed congressman Glen Morley (played by William Windom). Glen has two sons, age 14 and 8 at the time of the premiere. Steve, the older of the two boys, is played by Mickey Sholdar, and Danny is played by Rory O'Brien. The congressman's mother Agatha Morley is played by Cathleen Nesbitt.

Definitely into some anime which could be considered as... sketchy lol. Aside from that, I like Cobra Kai it's actually a good show even though there's very questionable parts

Not necessarily unknown, but it is definitely considered a show for little kids that hardly anyone even gives a chance. Ninjago is one of my favorite shows, and sure, the 1st and 2nd seasons are for little kids, but get to season 3 and on and it becomes (for the most part) a masterpiece.

"Count Arthur Strong" -- one of the funniest British sitcoms I've ever seen!! Steve Delaney is a genius at word play and hilariously twisting the English language. Every episode is laugh-out-loud funny, but Safari Park may just be my favorite one. "The little boy! The little boy!!! Run!!!!!!!" So funny!

I’ve talked about this movie many times before (yeah I know not tv show or game), but it’s just so underrated.
Little Door Gods is a Chinese animation from Light Chaser Studios released in 2015. Two brothers Shen Tu and Yu Lei are at risk of losing their jobs as Door Gods so Yu Lei sets out to release the Nian, which would hopefully bring humans and gods together to defeat it.
The North American release utterly butchered it. Everything was lost in translation, added a crappy narrator and music, overall just a crappy version.
You can look up the Chinese version with subtitles on Youtube. Just give it a chance :>

Romeo × Juliet. It's an anime series based on Romeo and Juliet but Juliet is a masked sword-wielding avenger for the people and Romeo is a child of a political despot. Gets weird near the end, but the fights are awesome.

Violet Evergarden; Anime on Netflix
It's about a young woman that was a child soldier and after the war writes letters for people to find out what her officer meant with his last words towards her.
There are also 2 good Indie-shows on Youtube: Helluva Boss and Murder Drones, both have quite some time inbetween episodes being released, but it's usually worth the wait. (Helluva Boss is in it's second season currently with a pilot + 10 released episodes overall)

Rain world my account is after this game and it is very underappreciated even with the new dlc that came out recently it's on the switch steam and playstation and its so good due to its design where the enemies react according to the situation making it very unpredictable and fun because it's ai is weird but it is one of the best games that stimulates a natural ecosystem

One of my all time favourite games is What Remains of Edith Finch and to me is a masterclass in storytelling. It's a simple story in which you play as a girl who returns to her old family home and finds out how all her old family members died. What makes it so fantastic is each story is told in a completely different way visually and structurally and it goes from completely not even true to heartbreakingly real. It's only 2-3 hours playthrough and is well worth it

Ever since I was in grade school, my Favorite Animated Show of all time is Star Blazers. The first animated space opera. Half hour episodes, 3 seasons. I hear it's original incarnation, Space Battleship Yamato (that's YOM-a-toe) has a huge cult following in Japan. They finally made a live action, 2012 I think, once CGI could handle it, and it is AWESOME. The only movie I ever *liked* watching with subtitles!

The Planet Crafter, an early access game on the PC (Steam), it's one of those sandbox games that you can dip into whenever you like, racking up hundreds of hours. You are a prisoner that gets dumped on a dead planet and your sentance involves terraforming the planet. First you have to upgrade your own life support systems then build a base by either crafting or salvaging from derelict ships and failed attempts from previous terraformer prisoners. You start on a dead rock that eventually has oxygen, water, plant and trees, insects and fish. The next terraforming stage is amphibians. :)

Hold The Back Page, which was a British light drama from the 1980s about a sports writer who quits writing for the quality press and writes for a tabloid instead, and runs into a totally different mindset towards journalism. Some very clever stories although I think it ran out of puff towards the end

I LOVE RM!! I've spent hours watching this with my mom in front of a desktop, and it gets me up after a bad day. And the only drama is the struggles between every team completing their missions.

Grisu, der kleine Drache (Grisu, the little dragon). Ran on German TV in the 70s. It was a little dragon who wanted to become a fireman, to the great displeasure of his family. Unfortunately, any time he got too excited, he started breathing fire and burned stuff down. I loved the show, but nobody seems to remember it.

Politics and War, it's a nation simulator where you make decisions and make resources for your nation. You can join alliances and go to war with other nations too. Most alliances use discord, so you can get to know people their. I don't think it takes a lot of time, so not really addicting. It's also free. Here is the link to it: https://politicsandwar.com/register/ref=Velikov

SUPERNOVA - sit com about astronomers in the Australian outback. Considering how isolated they were, there was a lot going on around and above them. STAR COPS - interesting questions about living/working in a space station, music by Moody Blues Justin Hayward. PUSHING DAISIES - intricate story lines, sharp writing, quick dialogue. It was crushed by the writer's strike that year and never came back. Oh, yea . . . and just discovered movie HAMLET 2 - a spoof on high school, acting, teaching, life.

Oh my god, my FAVORITE SHOW. It is called “In the Dark”. It is about this blind girl who works at a place where they train dogs to help blind people. She eventually gets caught up in crime against her will. It is such a good show. FYI if you want to watch it, there is drugs, sex, suicide, and murder. It is a great show. I know it is on Netflix but I am not sure where else

Fatum Betula. Fatum Betula is amazing. The game starts off with you face to face with a worm that emerged from the void in front of you, the worm explains that the fate birch ( hence fatum betula) controls the world of this game and then gives you glass bottles. Then you leave and explore a ps1 esque world and find liquid for the tree meeting bizzare characters, like a cat that cant eat, a skeleton trapped in the basement of a house and a socerer hunting for the key to immortality. The games world is creepy, the charcters are interesting and the writing is imaculate. If you want an amazing video game buy it , it's about six dollars on steam so not as expsenvive as other games on the market.

Venture Bros! I think it's becoming more popular now, but I still have a hard time finding people that know what it is. The show is amazing! A spoof on 60's cartoons like Johnny Quest and superhero comics like the Fantastic 4, but it takes the titular kids from those tv shows and shows how messed up they would be as adults if they actually grew up dealing with those dangerous situations on the daily. It turns the superhero genre on its head, and each season is SO well written!

If you're an Undertale fan, love angst, and/or enjoy dynamic friendship stories, I would recommend Omori. It's an RPG in which you play as Sunny, a sixteen year old who is still grappling with the death of his sister Mari, and Omori, Sunny's alter-ego who exists inside a dreamland. There are a fair amount of jumpscares, but the soundtrack is beautiful and it is has some of the most wholesome messages that I've seen in a video game.

The Saturday morning TV show "Shazam!" When I saw Michael Gray in the role of Billy Batson, it was as if my heart started beating for the very first time. Somehow, almost as if by magic, the TV was always set to CBS on Saturday morning. I now have it on DVD, along with The Secrets of Isis.
