There are a lot of TV shows that are so interesting that almost no one has ever heard of. Here’s a list of underrated TV shows that should be declared binge-worthy.
#5. Eureka (Universal Media Studios, 2006-2011)
(Disclaimer: This show is rated PG-13 due to sexual content and language. Photosensitivity Warning: Eureka contains multiple scenes with flashing lights.)
Eureka is an incredibly funny and entertaining Sci-Fi TV show. The story revolves around a small town full of super geniuses and their street smart sheriff, Jack Carter (Colin Ferguson). The town has a secret government facility called Global Dynamics (G.D.). G.D. creates machines that help the U.S. military and the rest of the world. This TV show is quirky, funny, and full of drama and romance. Its five seasons will always keep you on your toes as Carter and his friends solve mysteries and make scientific advancements that could change the world.
#4. Doctor Who (BBC)
(Photosensitivity Warning: Doctor Who contains multiple scenes with flashing lights.)
Doctor Who is about a Time Lord from the planet Gallifrey named The Doctor (currently played by Ncuti Gatwa) that takes ordinary people on grand adventures across time and space in his time/space ship called the T.A.R.D.I.S. (Time And Relative Dimensions In Space). A lot of fans’ favorite Doctors are Ten (David Tennet) and Eleven (Matt Smith). I think the best seasons to watch would be the series from 2009 (the Ninth Doctor, played by Christopher Eccleston) through 2013 (Tenth and Eleventh Doctors). The Twelfth Doctor (Peter Capldi) isn’t as good as Ten and Eleven. The Thirteenth (Jodie Whittaker) Doctor was the only female Doctor and her storylines just didn’t make much sense and went a bit too long.
#3. Psych (USA)
Psych is a TV show about a man named Shaw Spencer (James Roday Rodriguez) who is very observant because of what his dad taught him. To get out of trouble with the Santa Barbara Police Department, he pretends to be a Psychic and somehow becomes a Psychic detective. With his best friend Burton Guster (Dule Hill), they solve murders and other crimes. It is a dramedy and definitely a TV show that almost everyone in high school should watch. It’s non-gory and has a lot of creative storylines and you will have a lot of fun watching it.
#2. White Collar (USA)
(Disclaimer: White Collar is rated PG-13 due to sexual content.)
If you like TV shows that make you think, this TV show is for you. White Collar i
s about a con-man named Neal Caffrey (Matt Bomer) who makes a deal with FBI agent Peter Burke (Tim DeKay) to become a Criminal Informant in order to stay out of jail. Neal has a hard time staying on the right path. It’s also a dramedy and will always keep you on the edge of your seat. This TV show is one of the best written TV shows that I’ve seen and I think everyone will enjoy it.
#1. Chuck (Josh Schwartz, Chris Fedak, Phil Laudicina, Robert-Duncan McNeill, and McG)
(Disclaimer: This TV show is rated PG-13 due to sexual content, violence, and nudity. Photosensitivity Warning: Chuck contains multiple scenes with flashing lights.)
Last but not least we have another TV show where your parents should watch it first: a TV show called Chuck. It’s about a man named Chuck Bartowski (Zachary Levi), who works at a Buy More (basically a Best Buy). Chuck opens an email from one of his college friends who is a spy. The email contains a boat-load of images that have encrypted information in the images. That information…is government secrets. Chuck assists the CIA and the NSA with his handlers, Sarah
Walker (Yvonne Strahovski) and John Casey (Adam Baldwin) in preventing bad things from happening. Along with being a spy, Chuck struggles with keeping his spy status from his sister, Ellie Bartowski (Sarah Lancaster) and Devon Woodcomb, or as Chuck calls him, “Captain Awesome” (Ryan McPartlin). He also has a hard time keeping it from his best friend Morgan Grimes (Joshua Gomez).
It’s an entertaining show that will keep you wondering what happens next. It has incredible action scenes and wonderful romance. The actors and actresses are amazing and it’s one of the best and unique shows I’ve ever seen.
