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

I remember the littlest hobo and gentle Ben being on at the same time... uk watcher.
I also have the dvd box set of dogtanian and the three muskahounds.

The Red Hand Gang
Animal Quackers (people dressed up as animals who were in a band, one was a blue lion)

A kid's show Dizzy Heights about a hotel. There was a talking boar and bear head on the wall.

Yes! I can still hear the theme tune 💈

I loved the dreamstone

The Littlest Hobo was Canadian - I didn't think it played over here!

It did and now I'm remembering the theme tune and feeling sad.

The Dreamstone was amazing.

10/10 👍

Does anyone remember the 'trouble' tv channel? I absolutely loved this in the late nineties. I remember coming home from school and watching hang time, California dreams and a few others I can't remember the name of!

Ade Edmonson one was Doctors and Nurses but he also played a Dr in Ho;by

This is a really obscure one. Does anyone remember Dooby Duck's Disco Bus?

I loved this show! It had Darren from Neighbours in one of the lead roles IIRC. My housemates at the time (early 2000s) and I were obsessed with it and used to gather round the TV religiously to watch it. A few years later I went on holiday to Australia and was so excited that I’d finally have the chance to buy the DVDs of it. Couldn’t find them anywhere. Eventually asked in a shop and they actually laughed in my face!

I did eventually find them on eBay like 10 years later and tried watching it again but couldn’t stand all the silly 20-something angst and the dated Sex and the City style voiceover musings but that’s just me being a grumpy old woman now.

Oh we adored it in our house. My mum and dad have religiously watched it again and again each summer. He died last year, I’m not sure mum will watch it again :(

The littlest Hobo.was shown during every schoo! Holiday (or at least it felt like it)/during the 80,s in the UK I .still remember the words to the theme tune!

@FlamingoQueen so pleased to see a couple of people mentioning Maelstrom. Only one person I've ever talked to about remembers it. I had to get it on DVD to prove to myself I hadn't imagined it.
A remake would be amazing

Nice!

I remember Mad Death, scared the shit out of me as a 12 year old.
Other shows I remember areThe Ghosts of Motley Hall, Dick Turpin and Robin of Sherwood

Astercote - a time-slip/ghost story children’s series based on a Penelope Lively book. Scared the bejaysus out of me, as did the book.

Topogigio

Calamero

the White Horses (best theme tune ever)

Junior Showtime

Why Don’t You…

(the last two were dire)

the BBC showed a Robinson Crusoe Tv series every summer (it started with a shot of the sea lapping at shore). Only they timed it for the English School Holidays, so we in Scotland never saw the end. For all I know, he’s still on that bloody island. Ironic, given the inspiration was Alexander Selkirk, who was Scottish.

The intro to Peppermint Pig had a little clockwork toy of a butcher with two knives chopping on a block and the piggie jigging about beside him.

I can still do the theme tune in my head

Ooh I loved TV101. I'm mostly reading this thread thinking i watched a lot of obscure tv because I remember loads of these shows 😂

Gideon is another one from the 80s, it was about a duck. I don't remember much about it except that it was sad.

Z for Zachariah- watched at school and was very weird

A program about stolen peregrine falcon eggs and little kids trying to solve it

A program about a man from space but no idea of the title

Chocky - loved it but was terrified

The Phoenix from the flames, magic carpet and maybe Victorian children

Littlest Hobo - cried every episode

The Enchanted Castle, one episode an audience of clothes called the fugly wuglies that came to life

So many more 😊 always was a tv addict

Nanny with Wendy Craig ,me and my friend were obsessed with it .

Try CEX. They usually have them

Anyone remember Kingdom Hospital?

“Call the doctor
call the nurse
this guys goofy
and getting worse
NURSE”

Oh and one about a bedroom that was bricked up and the family could see there was an extra room from the street , they knocked it through, there was a skeleton in a four poster bed!
