The Shield. Not really underated or unknown, but because of its content it has to cop an 11pm late night timeslot in the middle of the week.

A truly outstanding TV show.

Angel: was my favorite show while on tv...everyone thought it was gay..never did quite understand how a show that featured violence, comedy and brilliant story arcs could be treated like it was.

Arrested development: one of the few comedies where you can actually re watch every ep and still find something funny you didnt notice before.

Now and again: i remember thinking to myself "wow what a cliffhanger, i cant wait till it returns"...7 years later nothing.

Scrubs: 10:30pm in australia..how on earth does that happen and Friends gets prime time.

Futurama: IMO funnier then the simpsons, glad its returning, but still its a long wait till 2009.

Firefly: awesome show, everything about this show was class..yet it couldnt even go a full season in america..stupid americans..

Pretender: how great was this show! the idea behind this show would make you think that they couldnt possibly pull more then a season of him running..but they did like 3 lol.

Pretty good show mate.....have only seen it about 6 or 7 times but from what I saw it was relatively realistic...

great show, however the last series sucked major ass.

Again I have only seen about a dozen or so episodes, however thought it was top notch stuff mate. Like the concept of covering all of the triple 0 brothers and sisters in the one show, with a good story line as well, without getting TOO overly involved in the fictional home life crap. great conecept !!!!;-)

:LOL: The Micallef P(r)ogram(m)e was (is) an absolute classic. A definate high-point in the history of Australian comedy. Life Support was good too.
