What’s the most obscure tv show you like

Due South was class. Ditto Northern Exposure. But both too mainstream for this.

Try Tokyo Stories: Midnight Diner on Netflix. Utterly genius short stories. Best watched as your "nightcap" before bed.
 
Lots of these aren't obscure, they were massive hits.

For me, Funland which was a one series show on BBC Three and Beta's, which was a one season show on Amazon Prime.
 
I remember the dark comedy sketch show in the late 90s called Jam I think, think it might have been Chris Morris thing after Brass Eye???

A more upbeat comedy that I never thought got the recognition it deserved was Pete vs Life, starring Ralph Spaul
 
I love Outlander, on Prime and some on More 4.

Nobody at work has heard of it, but it's popular in Europe and the US. I've been to some of the locations when visiting Scotland and me and my wife are usually the only British people there.
 
I went through a spell of watching "Can't Pay we'll take it Away" I liked the human story behind the debt and the acts people did to avoid owning up or avoid paying and then the deals that were made and if people kept to them. There some good tips on life in those programmes.

For comedy - Mork and Mindy - although it became famous when Robin Williams became a movie star

An obscure animated comedy from USA around 1972 and shown on BBC Children's TV Sat morning was "Wait till your father got Home"
 
The Great British Sewing Bee.....love it so much my Mother in Law (who used to be a seamstress) is going to teach me the basics when I'm finally allowed to go see her in her home.
From the past I loved "Gimme Gimme Gimme" a gay lady sharing a flat with a sex obsessed lass called Linda (played by Kathy Burke
 
'Josh 'and yet another for 'Still Game' i have watched them all and am re watching them now. Favourite character must be be the barman Boabby- Edith is great , Methadone Mick what a name, Navid ,Tan,Winston all great characters.
