Underrated/Lesser Known TV Series

[Synonymous]

Every time someone creates an "underrated thread?" it's always full of things that were never underrated, but instead are favorites. I really wish people would try harder to understand the concept of obscurity.

Yeah, this. Everyone knows about Firefly by now, browncoats.

M.A.N.T.I.S. - Show about a brilliant black paraplegic scientist who creates a powered exoskeleton to fight crime. Came on American Television in the early 90's

This too. It was smart and thrilling, and it had a good lead.

Another I forgot: Strangers with Candy. It was a parody of afterschool specials about a 46-year-old junkie who returns to high school. Like The Daily Show at its best, though, it didn't use parody to make fun of morality and the right behavior that the targets of its satire were designed to instill, but rather to throw up its hands in exasperation on how so often we choose to do the wrong or stupid thing. But don't get me wrong: it was utterly hilarious. How good was it? It had Amy Sedaris and Stephen Colbert.

Non of my friends have heard of Invader Zim, which angers me.

Wow, Invader Zim has it's own little cult over here.

Yes, it does. And that is one of my favorite parts of the Escapist.

Lol, I have a friend who has memorized almost everything that Gir has said, she often quotes him at random.

I'd do that, but my friends would just sit there with a dumb look on there face. I even have a shirt with him on it.


"WAFFLES"

We just laugh at her, cause we know what she's talking about, then we start to spout off our own quotes...cause we're cool like that. Oh, she would kill you for that shirt, I bought her a plushie last time I went to Chicago and she knocked my ass over.

I'd kill to have her as a friend.

But she's the one and only Hayley-chan...also you'd have to have a high tolerance for fangirling over Kyouya from Ouran...thankfully I have this tolerance and I also fangirl with her.

I have a friend like this. He is a huge fan of the office and of Halo 3. To hang out with him, you have to have a really high tolerance to bad jokes and arguments. I'm the only one thst has this.

Awesome, I could tolerate him...I have a boyfriend. lol.

Lol. He wins all of the arguments, only because he can put me in a arm lock.

My bf would like to think that wins all the arguments, but he has to admit that I do, cause I threaten to not buy him a PSN card or that new game he wants...works everytime!

You would Also win in a argument everytme against me apparently.

I just got mad skills like that...

It's pretty apparent that you do.

My bf just calls it the evil ways of women...

That is just too funny.

I get's funnier, cause he says that to me whenever our friends are around, and the majority of our friends are girls...many raised eyebrows.

either your bf is oblivious, are a comidic mastermind. It's your call.

I say oblivious, it took almost a whole year to realize that he liked me and it took him 6 years to admit that he had a crush on one of his friends.

Wow, 6 years? Is there a record for something like that?

I really don't know, but there probably is somewhere...lemme check the internet...it has all the answers.

Well, not all the answers. Get to specific, and You can get some weird things.

Yeah, I found that side of the internet before.../shivers/

Some of the stuff I find need more than just a shiver.

Well, I was on 7 chan recently and /b/ scared me. It was flashing bright colors and had falling penises

I'm just glad I've avoided #chan and /b/ in general. I've heard so much bad things about it.

You are one smart man...I only go onto 7chan these days to look for flash games and videos.

Have you noticed how far off-topic we've gotten? It went from Invader Zim, to Arguments, to 7chan. It's pretty weird.

Yeah, I noticed...that tends to happen with me some times.

Yup, same. Whenever I get qouted enough, me and the other person get off-topic somehow.

Maybe it's cause you can only talk about one thing for so long...topics can die pretty damn quickly.

That, and my mind can get off-topic really quickly.

You'd be surprised how fast my mind hits the gutter...it's a creepy insano-speed.

Yea, sometimes I'm speak non-sequitur, and it throws my friends off completly.

Yeah, my friends tell me that I have a 0.6 second turnaround time...I can't help that "over-encumbered" makes me chuckle...

Wait, your friends time you? I always de-reail the conversation when I see the best chance to do so.

They don't time me, they watch and see how long it takes for a dirty comment to find it's way out...and apparently, it doesn't take very long. And I also love to de-rail conversations...I get slapped my friends for it sometimes.

I didn't know we were talking about dirty comments. Those come out of me without knowing it.

I just turn everything into a dirty comment...it's a great talent of mine.

I just turn everything into a dirty comment...it's a great talent of mine.

I just add "That's what she said" at the end of almost everything my friends say. Sometimes it is funny, other times it is makes no sense, which is still funny.

I often add "in the pants" to end of somethings...it gets really weird...

Whenever my friend reads a fortune cookie, I"ll add "In bed" when their done reading.

I've done that...I also enjoy reading dirty fanfiction, then explaining it to my friends in detail.

I just cou;dn't stop laughing at this. The closest thing I've ever done to this is bring a pair of skinny jeans to a friends house for his birthday and told hin "If they fit, happy birthday. If not, then I have some cash." He said they didn't fit, but I think he was lying.

EDIT: YAY! My 500th post!

Lol...I had a friend like that...I told her to prove it, well...she got stuck in the jeans and we had to have someone cut her out of them...I ended up taking her out the next day cause I felt bad...then she turned around and stole my bf from me...
