I'm just slowly going trough OG Star Trek. I would not exactly call that niche tho.
Dark angel from James Cameron, I wish I had a good version of those to watch
Our Flag Means Death
Recently?
Lucifer
Grimm
Leverage
Timeless
Lost in Space (2018)
Series that my family rewatch about every 3 years or so:
Stargate SG-1
Farscape
Let me talk to you about the wire and how it is the perfect series. (Even when it got squirely in season 5)
The deconstruction of the failure of every institution in the city of Baltimore.
How good people can get lost in systems. How they can attempt to fight. How the systems inevitably prevail.
Band of Brothers. I'm not obsessed with per se, but it is a show etched into my brain forever.
I thoroughly recommend Masters of the Air. Not as good as BoB obviously but I fucking loved it
The Grim adventures of Billy and Mandy
Have not seen anyone mention "Dead like me"
It's highly worth it.
I finally got around to watching Dark. The show is insane. Im not sure if its niche but I have never heard any of my friends talk about it before.
Yeah I'd consider it pretty niche. Most people I gushed to about it didn't want to give it a chance because it was dubbed, weirdly enough. Their loss. This reminds me I need to do a rewatch...
Just quickly learn German if you mind the dubbing. It's easy, I did it as a toddler.
🤔
I have heaps of my own classics, that I regularly rewatch. More recently, though, has anyone seen Kevin can fk himself, holy crap that was perfect. Short but written to be short, and ties up perfectly. There was just a harmony to it. I was yelling at the telly, I know they're good when I start yelling at the telly.
Currently rewatching Mr. Robot
Night Court
Firefly, of course.
On the plus side, what Joss Whedon did to Wash in Serenity made me hate him long before the revelations of what an asshole he is came to light.
Hey, how do reavers clean their harpoons?
They run 'em through the Wash... 😢
Top 3 hated deaths for me. Not even sure anything else quite takes the number 1 spot.
Wise Guy with Ken Wahl.
Recently binged The Prisoner, which is an absolute delight
Reddit and Firefly ca. 2013
Ah old reddit...it used to be so good...
Twin Peaks
Farscape. I never heard much, if anything about it in Denmark, but it's amazing. Good sci-fi great humor.
I'm currently through Season 1 and starting Season 2. Last time I saw it was in high school and the show holds up amazingly well. I've enjoyed it as much if not more.
surprisingly dark too, especially in the latter seasons. they just keep making the main characters fail and suffer and betray each other and get tortured and have their friends and family die in front of them after failing to escape the body horror mad scientist that wants to steal your organs and trap you in the matrix...
i actually had to stop watching it towards the end over the continuous concentrated negativity. it's not a very happy show very often. still good, i just can't deal with shows that never turn on the lights. like bojack horseman and mr. robot. two other shows that are just too depressing for me to watch. i resonate too hard the consistent downward spiral with no positive moments, then the feeling sticks with me. all three are really good shows that i had to turn off for my own wellbeing.

Loved it as a kid and just started watching the whole series this week. Tried to get my wife to watch the Turkey Drop last night and she didn't look up from her phone once.
Keen Eddie, Better Off Dead, and of course Firefly.
Better Off Ted is just so good. Only 2 seasons but tbh I doubt they could have kept the pace past maybe a third season anyway. As much as I want more it's kinda nice it burned brightly and shortly
My favorite part is when the octochicken comes down from its web.
