When looking at the weirdest TV shows to ever grace our television screen, some are good, while the majority are just strange overall. Even the greatest shows ever can be seen as weird in a way. After all, when you try to create a new series, you don’t know how the public will react to it. Plenty of weird TV shows are strange due to their mind-twisting plots, uncanny characters, and visuals present in them. So, if we were to determine what makes weird shows strange, the factors get divided into their story and visuals, and sometimes a combination of the two.

For a show to be weird, sometimes the story is enough to make it strange, with characters, plot, and the structure it follows being part of it. When you place mysterious characters in a weirdness-filled plot, you can be sure that you will have quite a bizarre TV show on your hands. For example, Twin Peaks, one of the best horror series and the creation of David Lynch, is so weird that it is brilliant. With its characters and strange story structure, this series solidified itself in television history as a weird show that is quite addictive when you watch it. On the other hand, there’s Don't Hug Me, I'm Scared, a TV show so weird that it crosses into the uncanny valley and drags us into it too. This show can give the heebie jeebies while retaining our attention span.

When labeling TV shows with the word weird, it’s only natural for some controversies to appear. Luckily, many internet groups have decided to share their opinions. For example, users like BillMeeks and S1mon_B3ufont asked questions about weird television shows on AskReddit. We have compiled some of the best answers in the list below. Upvote the series that you think is weird. On the other hand, share your views on the series' weirdness in the comments below.

Pushing Daisies

Monty Python’s Flying Circus

Various making weird face and wearing hat from Monty Python’s Flying Circus

"My only exposure to Monty Python over the years (I'm 30 years old), has been watching and loving the "Holy Grail", and "Life of Brian" films, as well as seeing the Dead Parrot and Spanish Inquisition sketches. I was a little hesitant but I said ok and we started it up. Let me tell you, I laughed so hard at certain segments that I had tears in my eyes. I don't know if I was just in the right frame of mind or just tired enough or what, but I caught myself laughing like a fool a few times. We watched 4 full episodes and I adored what I saw. Some sketches were obviously better than others, but I really enjoyed most of it. The funny thing is, being a guy from the US born in 1989, so many of the British references and slang from the era go over my head but it still struck me as funny due to the delivery."

I started season 2 thinking they didn't have anywhere further to go, but no matter how silly or whimsical season 2 gets as it goes along, I continue to enjoy it."

Eerie, Indiana

Marshall looking at town sign in Eerie, Indiana

"It's a show following the children's horror genre of the early 90's, about a couple kids who live in the strangest place in the world, and yet everyone else seems to think it's normal. Shockingly similar to the show "Gravity Falls" except that Eerie Indiana came first

The show only got one season, only 19 episodes. One of my favorite shows growing up. But it seems horribly underrated, few people I've brought it up with (aside from my family) have so much as even heard of it. Which is a shame, I think a reboot would be highly successful with other similar shows like Gravity Falls, Stranger Things, etc."

Twin Peaks

Audrey looking in Twin Peaks

"Season 1 is paced well and it's weird and campy and I loved it. Season 2 is good at the start and the end, but the middle becomes a mess with pointless storylines to pad out the season to the full season order of episodes it received (among other executive meddling issues). Season 3 is crazy. Lynch is fully let loose upon his audience. It's strange, bizarre, and captivating. It's creepy, endearing, funny, and a complete mind bender. Still, some of the show is too weird even for me, but I really do want a 4th season just to see where Lynch can take things. So here's to hoping we get more from Lynch and Frost."

I remember exactly when I gave up on this show. In the first series there's a character known as the Log Lady who carries around a log that she treats like an infant child, so I guessed that she had some kind of ungestalted trauma around the loss of a child that she had somehow projected onto this log. But then she goes up to the bar to talk to Kyle Maclachlan, and she specifically refers to "my log". So if she doesn't think it's a baby and knows it's just a log, then she isn't delusional; she's sane. And if she's sane, then all the business with the log is just fucki*g about for the sake of fucki*g about. No longer interesting.

The Day Of The Triffids

"It's aged a bit and the Triffids do look a bit like Daffodils ... nevertheless it's one of my all time favourites. The part at the start when everyone goes blind is still harrowing. Even the title music is genuinely unsettling.

Possibly because it came out when I was a kid I still prefer this version to the newer one the BBC did a few years back - even if that did have Eddie Izzard."

Dark Shadows

Jonathan looking in Dark Shadows

"For a while now I've been looking at how movie monsters and horror tropes cross over to dramatic / serialized television. The one thing I've noticed is that so much of this goes back to the 1960s, most specifically to a soap opera called Dark Shadows. This show featured a little bit of everything including vampires, ghosts, witches, and even werewolves (and these are just the tip of the iceberg). Sure, the show could be campy at times, but even modern shows with supernatural drama indulge in camp every once and a while. My interest in the show has grown to the point I'm now collecting the DVD sets featuring the show's 1,225 episodes (I'm now on Collection 11 and in the process of getting the next three)."

I just remember watching it anytime it was on, as a kid, and that it had some wild episodes. A planet where a bunch of heads are watching television, and killing people who don't perform well enough? An episode where they just all have s** constantly? A ton of "solve this problem" stuff like a normal Star Trek, but in their own weird way. It was always so bizarre.

As a kid, it felt like you were getting away with something. The whole show felt like it was always on the verge of breaking out into a late-night Skinemax show, but it never did. It was just weird sci-fi."

The Mighty Boosh

Howard Moon standing and looking in The Mighty Boosh

"I had never heard of this show in my life until about a month ago. Its a British comedy that ran from 2003 - 2007. I found the humor to be universal, not necessarily "British" which I sometime have a hard time understanding as an American.

It is an awesome mix of music, comedy, and genuine absurdity. I also think this show was a huge inspiration for later shows like "Flight of the Conchords".

Having just watched all 3 seasons, I can genuinely say it is one of the funniest, most original, and most creative shows I have ever seen.

It definitely has a very specific type of absurd humor that some people may not get, but I certainly did!!! There has to be other people like me out there so give this show a shot!"

Off The Air

Illustration of head with wings in Off the Air

"The show normally airs at around 3-4am which is known to be “the witching hour”. It is only fitting because some of the “disturbing” s**t they put in there could really give a dude nightmares. Dave firmly believes that TV shows really DO effect how people dream, and mentioned something about it giving people nightmares, especially the kids who fall asleep watching Cartoon Network. It sounds cruel when typing it here on reddit, but it’s all just to be funny, really. Not that kids remember most of their dreams, anyways. It’s also no secret Adult Swim will show bumpers that scare kids from watching late at night... and yes. The show is totally inspired by acid trips. Though I would not recommend watching while tripping...."

Rabbits

rabbits sitting and standing in Rabbits

"My friends and I are quite taken by Rabbits. A lot of the time, I feel that the goal of the fragmented narrative and the static viewpoint is to portray life the way a caged rabbit would see the scene. Completely still and unattached. As the viewer, we are unable to connect with any of the events of the series on a deeper level. Yes, we may chuckle when the laugh track comes on, but do we really know why? I suppose we probably cull some cathartic release from an apparently shared emotion, but the context of the laughing is lost on us, just as it would be to a rabbit hearing it in it's cage. Thematically, I think the film is meaning to say "You will never know all the answers". Of course, David Lynch prides himself on the mystique of his movies, but I feel that Rabbits, in particular, spits at the faces of anyone who tries to find a solid meaning in it."

Richard Ayoade shows some great technical chops as an actor who is, operating on pure instinct, the worst actor in the world. You can tell he's put a lot of thought into exactly how to mistime every gesture. Like Dudley Moore or Les Dawson at the piano, you need a lot of skill before you can get it *that* wrong.

"Mythic Quest is a pretty mediocre sitcom about a video game company. It doesn't take itself too seriously.

This episode is wildly different, and the quality is so much higher than the show it feels like half the season budget was spend on it. It's basically a standalone romantic drama movie about a couple starting a company together, falling in love, and falling out of love.

Its set 20 years in the past and has none of the cast from the series. The only relation is that office building theyre both set in is the same, and it introducing a plot device that the building is cursed. Its pretty fantastic, I recommend anyone to see it regardless of your interest in the show."

Didn't this actually happen several times in the States? I remember a podcast about it for sure

Todd And The Book Of Pure Evil

"This show was just out there. Jason Mewes is a highlight of the show, but he plays a minor character. This show just went all in on the weirdness and out there plots. Basically the entire plot centers around the Book of Pure Evil and the hijinks a group of kids get into involving the book."

Jam

"It's a surreal, psychological horror series from 2000 that plays out like a sketch comedy, but with really unsettling subject matter and sound work."

"Bad timing and the wrong tone (way too serious) killed that show. If it had come out at a time when weird TV was acceptable, like the mid to late 80's or early 60's, it could have been popular."

Terrible. A one-liner joke that should have died out, like cavemen. Didn't even finish watching one episode it was so bad.

Pretty Little Liars

"I'm enjoying it. It's certainly got the scares of the OG but darker still. Still got the strong female friendship bonds, and right now I feel like it's not suuuuuper shippy (though that could change as it goes on.) When it was first announced I was dubious thinking it was going to be just a follow-on from Ali, Spencer and the other girls, like our new core five would be their daughters with the copycat. It isn't. It's very much sins of the mother are coming back to haunt these girls, but we've not dug super deep yet."
