What film, show or game that is not necessarily 'underated' didn't have the level of social impact it deserved.
What's the antithesis of Arrested Development, Firefly or The Big Lebowski? Those may never have 'found their audience' but over time seemed to recognised by everyone. What are the deep cuts that you liked but it feels like everyone has completely forgotten they even existed.

Mr Robot is a damn masterpiece and I don't think I've ever participated in or heard a verbal discussion about it. But whenever it pops up in a thread or comment section there's always tons of people giving it praise.
I know the camera operator that shot Mr Robot. They created a completely new camera framing language. Breaking the norms and conventions. It really deserves more recognition than it got.
Could you discuss a bit more what you mean by new camera framing language?
I thought nothing could top Breaking Bad, but then I watched Mr. Robot.
The creativity, cinematography and unique ideas in that are outstanding. The episode with almost no dialogue is particularly brilliant.
Despite not liking most of the last season, I agree that episode is brilliant. I did not even notice there wasn't any dialogue while watching it, I was that captivated.
I didn't notice until near the end, when I couldn't recall anyone saying anything or the music stopping. đ
My personal favorite episode is "Don't delete me". It just has a certain feel to it that other episodes don't, especially with the "Trying to find a purpose" theme.
I watched the first season and found it cringe.
THANK YOU. I couldn't get past the god-damned teenage angst.
It just feels so Reddit
I think youâre supposed to see that and see that itâs cringe though. I still couldnât get into it though. I watched the first season and half of the second and it didnât do it for me
My partner and I had the same experience. I kept powering through because I had heard from some folks OH IT IS SO GENIUS AND AMAZING but it felt⌠awful.
I don't know the last time I fell off a show so hard. It sets up this amazing conspiracy plot with dramatic cloak-and-dagger stuff, all supported by interesting characters I wanted to see more of, and then it completely went off the rails into addiction and petty crime.
I'm sure that stuff gets relevant later but it felt like I was watching a different show. Completely lost interest.
First season is the best, it actually gets much worse after that. Shows tries extra hard to be edgy, graphic and "weird". It also becomes less and less about hacking, which was the most interesting part of the show.
The first season was âso bad itâs funnyâ for me, I never got the praise.
