What obscure tv shows do you remember watching, but no one else really watched or remembers it so you feel alone?

[Soubriquet]

I have a few. I used to love watching certain shows but no one I knew watched it. So it felt like I was the only one at times.

Hex
Dollhouse
Dark Angel
Roswell (the original not the newer one)
Firefly

Lexx, which was shown at something like 3 am in the UK. A marmite cult Sci Fi show, described as Star Trek's evil twin.
Like nothing you've ever seen and had innovative CGI, at the time.

Lars Von Trier's The Kingdom, also shown at around 3 am in the UK (great when I didn't know how to set the video). Set in a haunted hospital, subtitled, filmed in monochrome, weird and wonderful.
Stephen King made a version called Kingdom Hospital, with LVT's permission. It was OK, but didn't strike the strange note of the original.

I loved The Water Margin. Also, another Japanese series from the 70's, Monkey.

Ah, now you’re talking !
Loved Circus Boy (was his name Corky in the series ?) - grew up to be Micky Dolenz of The Monkees fame .
Early memories of adult telly for me :
Wagon Train
Rawhide
Boots and Saddles
And for children’s programmes :
The Woodentops (my favourite), Bill and Ben, Andy Pandy , Picture Book, Tales of the Riverbank.

Paw paw bears, blossom, sqiddly diddly

The Water Margin and Kung Fu seem to have got muddled up in my mind (seriously sleep-deprived with a young family at that stage in my life ).
I remember chatting about the Kung Fu series about ten years ago , insisting that I remembered it perfectly but actually it wasn’t called Kung Fu , and it started with lots of men riding horses in strange hats .
Can still recall the look on my friend’s face as she slowly backed away from me …..

Yes! I had a major crush on Dusty (inexplicably) and could sing you the theme song without faltering, @Saucery!

Banana Splits had the Arabian Knights. Size of an elephant!

The Woodentops (my favourite), Bill and Ben, Andy Pandy , Picture Book, Tales of the Riverbank

Even at four years old I could see the strings on The Woodentops and think 'nah, not real.' Loved Tales of the Riverbank, wasn't that narrated by Johnny Morris?

McHale's Navy
The Flying Nun
Rag Tag and Bobtail - or as DF called them, Slag Bag and Oxtail.

Yes it’s funny how people are saying things that were wildly popular at the time were obscure. I wonder whether they saw them as a very small child.

Hector with Kiki and Zaza, and the Herbs with Dill, Parsley, Rosemary, The Chives…

Yep remember this one! Especially the episode they turned into broccoli 🥦 😂

I haven't read the whole thread 😳 but I used to watch a programme called Radio. Set in a local radio station and I think it was made by Southern/Meridian TV. It was on late afternoons in the early 80s and I swear it had Gary Tibbs in it.

No one else has ever heard of it let alone watched it.

Will Quack Quack, a cartoon show about a little Welsh duck called Will (the clue is in the name).

For years, I thought this was some kind of false memory / fever dream I had come up with, but no, Wikipedia confirms it did exist.

I have never met anybody else who has seen this

The Lakes. I absolutely loved it. Young John Simm. The guy who worked in the kitchen who used to narrate everything that was going on out loud third person.
No one I know even remembers it!

@Zoopet I watched Belle and Sebastian! The dubbing was awful but it was kind of sweet

@behaveasbefitsthesituationwillyas
How we used to live was what got me interested in History (as well as The World at War which we also used to watch in school) and I went on to do a degree in it so I deffo remember that one!

From The Top, starring Bill Oddie as a middle-aged man who goes to stage school.

Also, wasn’t a very young Liz Hurley in Wish Me Luck?

No, scratch that. I’m thinking of Christabel, another obscure WW2 drama.

@Geneticsbunny The Moonstone?

I'm so glad that someone else remembers Dooby Duck's Disco Bus/Duck Truck.

I was trying to remember earlier a cartoon where a character has a yellow horse and then someone mentioned Paw Paw Bears. I'm pretty sure that's it.

Does anyone else remember a cartoon about a cat called Heathcliff?

I loved that show! Me and DH still quote "Betty's maaaaad dash!" at each other

Supergran!! A Scottish granny with super powers. I can still sing the theme tune in my head

Pajo's junkbox on RTE in ROI. Sat morning show. Opening credits was Fiesta by the Pogues. They have a Xmas song 'You better wash your socks for Christmas' and science segment by Prof Know it all. Late 80s / early 90s I'd say

Kum Kum cartoon about a little caveboy.

I remember El Dorado. Wasn't it a soap they made to compete with neighbours or something but set in Spain. It was only 1 season before they canned it?
