thanks for being a sarcy lil bitch Joined: 25 September 2007 Posts: 79,277 User: 4,397	Are there any shows you love that were not exactly super popular and therefore people here (or anywhere) are less likely to know about them? SHARE. The main old gem of mine is probably Dead Like Me. INSANELY good. But no one really knows about it

Probably after I'm done with Californication. I remember liking Persons Unknown. It's pretty... unknown but it was a great summer series. So was Harper's Island (starring Katie Cassidy and Christopher Gorham as bride and groom ) The Lost Room was a great limited series and has developed a bit of a cult fanbase, but still not many people know about it. There was supposed to be a comics continuation, but it's been put on hold indefinitely. Peter Krause and Juliana Margulies (who I didn't know at the time) star. both of them!

Don't remember shit from the episodes I watched so would have to restart it then oops. I remember how popular Harper's Island was here actually And when the final two episodes were supposed to be out and we would find out who the killer is... omg I remember that day so well for some reason Just watched The Lost Room earlier this year. Pretty damn good! I love mini series like that!

I used to stay up most of the night watching it. All after catching the last 10 minutes of a random episode on E4 a few years ago!

Downloading was just too much effort, especially after Isohunt shut down and with my slow internet. Importing felt like effort. The movie really kickstarted my interest in the show and motivated the purchase.

Such a brilliant show. I'm currently making my way through 'Veronica Mars' too (mainly for the film also! haha) but I am so bloody glad I watched it! Absolutely brilliant. Season 3 is disappointing and it's not hard to see why it was cancelled, but the kickstarter campaign for a movie was perfect for it!
