There are shows with huge buzz, like True Detective. But there are also a lot of good shows that no one is talking about. What are some of the shows you like but they seem not to get a lot of attention?
Mine is Banshee. This show is simply amazing. It has THE BEST fight scenes on TV, amazing cast, some humor and a lot of gore and nudity. Show won't win "Best Drama" awards, but it's so good at what it does.

 

[Mr_eX]

Fargo

 

[BlindRage]

Crisis.

 

[Squalor]

The best television show "no one" talks about is Rectify, actually.

Everyone talks about Fargo, as they should.

Crisis is a middling affair.

Banshee turned procedural in the second season, and the writing was never more than "good enough to get you to the next plot point or action sequence or sex scene."

 

[Slowdive]

Utopia.

 

[WarrenMax007]

Fargo

Come on, everyone talks about Fargo.

 

[Mr.Awesome]

Shameless is the best show on tv period so it deserves more talking about

 

[figadapaura]

Happy Valley.

[mclem]

Happy Valley.

I haven't got around to watching this yet, but I'm hearing lots of rumblings that I should. Better binge before it falls off iPlayer.

Co-signed. 4 seasons of Emmy worthy television that gets over shadowed by pure bullshit from the rest of TV.

 

[Squalor]

All of this Shameless hyperbole is, well, shameful.

Really? I only know 3 people that watch it.

 

[Munin]

Utopia.

Best looking TV series I have ever seen. Great, unique music. Story itself is a bit meh but whatever.

Last episode is tonight! I'm hoping they leave room for another series. It's been intense as fuck. So good.

 

[Horse]

Aside from Banshee, I haven't herd of any these shows. I'll check them out.

Well by your logic, Banshee is not a valid candidate either

Banshee is my favorite "new" show by far

 

[chris121580]

Friends with Better Lives. CBS must be full of idiots for cancelling that show. It's hilarious with a great cast and has potential to keep getting better. Shame on them. One of the best shows they've introduced in awhile

 

[Zoe]

Hannibal. Maybe not around here, but I've only come across one other person I know who has even seen it.

Ahaha. No, it's not my logic . I just assumed he didn't know we have a thread.

I agree, it's the best looking show I've ever seen too, it's going to be interesting to see where the story goes in series 2.

They get love on GAF, but nobody I know in real life watches them:

Hannibal
Rick and Morty
Broad City

 

[Tucah]

Yep. Hopefully it gets more attention going into the second season.

Runner up is Shameless. It has its problems but it's wildly entertaining and Emmy Rossum is fantastic.

 

[DrEvil]

Zach Stone is Gonna Be Famous.

Spoiler

not current, anymore.. bastards.

 

[Slowdive]

If Hannibal counts then that as well. I think it gets a good amount of discussion, at least on here. I only know one other person irl that watches it.

 

[figadapaura]

I only know one person irl that watches GoT and I don't think that counts so.

They get love on GAF, but nobody I know in real life watches them:

Hannibal
Rick and Morty
Broad City

This is seriously on my must see list. I need to find the time.

 

[SamVimes]

Veep is not praised nearly as much as it deserves.

On the internet, not by critics.

Rick and Morty is fucking awesome.

Those shows get talked about all the time.

You need new friends.

 

[Manu]

I only watched the first season so far, but:

Vikings

 

[Ryce]

I don't know anyone in real life who has even heard of The Americans.

 

[JustAnotherMike]

I saw an ad for Bates Motel a while back. Is that any good? Vera Farmiga looked good.

Also, Suits is my submission.

 

[Squalor]

All of you are naming shows from major networks, yet, somehow, none of you know people in real life who watch or have heard of these shows.

Where the hell do you people live?

 

[Jonm1010]

For me it's The Returned.

The French version that is.

IMO one of the best new shows on television with a brilliantly unique approach to a familiar concept, executed near flawlessly on every level.

Wait, seriously? I'll admit that I never watched it, but it looked awful. At least Brooklyn Decker was some solid eye candy.

 

[lamaroo]

Rectify.

I don't want to link the trailer for the series because I feel like it has some spoiler-y scenes, but here's the beautiful intro: http://youtu.be/XQCM-fg7o3g

It was terrible.

It was so terrible, in fact, not even CBS wants it anymore.

CBS, the network that brings you the worst sitcoms on television, didn't. Want. It. Yeah.

 

[teruterubozu]

I don't know anyone in real life who has even heard of The Americans.

Great show, but yeah the name is horrible for recognition.

Yes, Bates Motel is good. I watched it couple of weeks ago actually.

I couldn't get passed the pilot. It was just awful. I can certainly see why it was cancelled.

Trophy Wife or Surviving Jack on the other hand, I don't quite understand.

 

[FiggyCal]

Rick and Morty is terrific. The best show adult swim has had in a long time -- or ever actually now that I think about it.

 

[abundant]

The Middle. It's just as good as Modern Family, yet there's no OT for it.

 

[Santiako]

Shameless is really underappreciated. One of the best things on tv.

 

[the_firewithin]

The Goldbergs. hilarious
