The Curious Creations of Christine McConnell

The streaming era of TV, often called “Peak TV,” is an embarrassment of riches with seemingly more so-called “must-see” shows than there are stars in the sky. But some shows fly under the radar, no matter their actual quality or star-power behind them. When it comes to streaming television, what “obscure” shows actually deserve more attention?

Streaming platforms like Netflix, Hulu, Peacock, and countless more spend oodles of money producing exclusive TV shows all in the name of warranting a monthly subscription. While some streaming shows become pop culture touchstones, like Stranger Things, Only Murders in the Building, and The Boys, other shows languish in some level of obscurity. It often doesn’t even matter if a major movie star is involved. Too many options means too many options, and we all only have the same hours in a day to see it all.

Whether you’re looking for something off the beaten path to change up your algorithms, or want to prove to a friend that your obscure television obsession is actually worth checking out, here are 32 of the greatest TV shows on streaming you’ve probably never heard about.

Bloodhounds

The fury of the disadvantaged becomes an iron fist in this simmering crime drama from South Korea. Premiering on Netflix in 2023, Bloodhounds takes place in the thick of the Covid-19 pandemic of 2020 to follow two young semi-professional boxers who use their skills to literally fight back against a ruthless loan shark taking advantage of the poor. Boasting top-notch fight scenes that emphasize grounded realism, Bloodhounds is a propulsive knockout that demands your attention.

Mrs. Davis

Faith and technology collide in this immaculate sci-fi drama with black comedy elements from co-executive producer Damon Lindelof (along with Tara Hernandez). Betty Gilpin stars as a Catholic nun who fights a powerful A.I. named “Mrs. Davis,” staging a quite literal battle between science and religion. Bold, quirky, thought-provoking, and especially timely in its 2023 debut amid the meteoric disruption of generative artificial intelligence, Mrs. Davis leaves anyone who binges all eight episodes praying for more.

Blood of Zeus

Japanese-style anime and Greek mythology clash like titans in this splashy epic from executive producers the Parlapinedes Brothers for Netflix. The series traces the coming-of-age heroism of Heron, a young demigod who must save the world from the destructive Titans who’ve returned to exact vengeance against the Olympians. As epic as a baroque painting and as exhilarating as a heavy metal album, Blood of Zeus proves that anime doesn’t only have to originate from the Far East to dazzle the senses.

23. The Imagineering Story (Disney+)

The Imagineering Story

You might think you know the story ofDisney’s theme parks. But wait until you’veseenit. A launch show that premiered when Disney+ went online in late 2019, The Imagineering Story is a mesmerizing documentary series that traces the history of Disneyland in California and Disney World in Florida. What is especially noteworthy about the show is its pristine footage of Disney’s earliest days, with images captured as far back as 1954 (during the parks' construction) looking like it was filmed yesterday. The Mandalorian took up a lot of people’s attention when Disney+ became a thing, but The Imagineering Story is impressive for different reasons. It’s just about the closest thing to time travel.

Shoresy

You want me to tell you about Shoresy, bud?Huh?This hilarious spin-off from Letterkenny follows Jared Keeso as the title hero, a rude and crude small-town Canadian hockey player who swears to his new owners that his team will never lose a game – ever. But as Shoresy tries to carry his team to immortality, he also tries to win over beautiful Laura Mohr (Camille Sullivan). You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, Shoresy will make you lace your skates for the big one, buddy.

The Curious Case of Christine McConnell

Imagine if The Muppets centered around Elvira, or maybe if Donna Reed were one of The Munsters, and you’re halfway to understanding this woefully overlooked Netflix original. The Curious Creations of Christine McConnell centers around its title heroine, Christine McConnell, a real-life artist and baker who cultivated an online following through viral concoctions that mix horror with traditional Americana. While Curious Creations is partially a baking show, it’s also a sitcom with McConnell starring as a fictionalized version of herself who manages a household of zany puppets with cranked-up personalities. (It might be all the sugar she feeds them.) Come for the spooky Halloween atmosphere, stay for McConnell’s salivating creations.

15. Pen15 (Hulu)

Pen15

Maya Erskine and Anna Konkle, two grown adult actors, play their 13-year-old selves in this hilarious comedy set in the early 2000s. While Pen15’s story about suburban teens is no different than any other coming-of-age show about the messiness of adolescence, its appeal is in the surprisingly never-ending absurdity of seeing 31-year-olds yell about crushes, homework, and other trivial woes. But Pen15 is far more than its sketch idea premise implies. There’s plenty of heart and humor that afford dimension to the show’s definition of nostalgia. (Imagine the “S” in nostalgia drawn in that block-shaped S symbol we all drew in our notebooks.)

14. Zorro (Prime Video)

(Image credit: Sony Pictures Television)

Zorro

Beware his mark of the “Z”! The classic pulp hero of yesteryear, Zorro, returns in this updated Spanish-language reimagining which quietly hit Prime Video in 2024. Miguel Bernardeau stars as the titular Zorro, a 19th-century nobleman who takes on a disguise to fight injustice in colonial-era California. Full of swashbuckling action, romance, and intrigue, Zorro doesn’t reinvent the wheel but instead perfects it for a bold new era. If you’ve rewatched The Mask of Zorro with Antonio Banderas one too many times, now is a good time to binge Zorro.

13. Mr. Throwback (Peacock)

Mr. Throwback

We know Steph Curry has a monster three-point shot. But did you know he couldact?Mr. Throwback, a Peacock original, casts the NBA icon as himself who reunites with childhood friend Danny Grossman (Adam Pally) – someone Curry remembers as a beast on the court when they played middle school basketball. Now an adult, a down-on-his-luck Adam tries to rebound in his life; Curry steps in to help, using his money and influence to make a documentary about Adam’s once-promising career. Aside from a revelatory Curry as a comic actor, Mr. Throwback is a surprisingly moving show about what it means to be a friend and a teammate.

12. Light & Magic (Disney+)

Light & Magic

A long time ago, in a California movie studio far, far away, a group of renegade artists, craftspeople, and technicians came together to make one of the greatest movies of all time: Star Wars. Light & Magic is a riveting documentary series that salutes the countless technical artists behind George Lucas' Star Wars, and how their collaboration created the now-legendary studioLucasfilm. A must-see for anyone who cares about the art and craft of filmmaking, not to mention an absolute treat for anyone obsessed with miniatures and creature effects, Light & Magic is enough to make you believe in the Force.

11. Paper Girls (Prime Video)

Station Eleven

Understandably, Station Eleven’s story about humanity after a crippling pandemic might have sounded unappealing during its December 2021 premiere on Max. But this series adaptation of Emily St. John Mandel’s 2014 novel is gorgeous, epic, and harrowing. The show follows Kirsten, an actress whose life is told in two different threads: As a child stage actress in Chicago when a virus breaks suddenly, and 20 years later as a young woman and member of a traveling Shakespeare troupe performing to survivors. Station Eleven won acclaim from critics and awards bodies like the Emmys for its powerful message that the show must go on, even at the end.

8. Trying (Apple TV+)

(Image credit: BBC Studios)

Trying

Apple’s streaming service has carved an enviable niche of big budget science fiction epics with star-studded casts. But some of its other original programming offers something more real and relatable. Enter: Trying. Starring Ester Smith and Rafe Spall, the series follows a UK couple eager to start a family but soon come to terms that they cannot. As the couple decides on adoption, they find a whole new universe of challenges before them. Thankfully, they have all the love in the world for each other and whoever else enters their lives. This tender comedy is all about the ups and downs of would-be parenthood, and is quietly one of the best shows on Apple TV+.

Trese

Filipino folklore is brimming with bone-chilling creatures of the night. The Netflix animated horror series Trese, based on a Filipino comic book series, is one of few to showcase the supernatural underworld of the Philippines to a wider audience. The series follows Alexandra Trese, an occult detective who helps Manila police solve paranormal cases. Such cases usually involve monsters from Filipino mythology, like the tikbalang (half-man, half-horse demons) or aswangs, a collection of shapeshifting vampires and ghouls. Fans of media like Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Supernatural, or DC’s Hellblazer comic books will be right at home with Trese, which introduces a fresh flavor of horror. Shay Mitchell voices Trese in the English language version, while Liza Soberano and Ryoko Shiraishi lead in the Tagalog and Japanese dubs.

3. Ethos (Netflix)

Ethos

From writer and director Berkun Oya, Ethos is a Turkish prestige drama chiefly about the invisible connections between people. Set in contemporary Istanbul, Ethos chronicles an array of diverse characters from different socio-economic backgrounds who all meet through mysterious and seemingly fateful circumstances. Turkish identity is at the forefront of Ethos, being a show that tries to reconcile conservative tradition and progressive ideas. But it’s also a show the whole world can and should experience, with striking picturesque cinematography (courtesy of series director of photographer Yagiz Yavru) and a universal story about individualism at odds with the surrounding culture.

2. Moving (Disney+/Hulu)

Moving

Despite massive popularity in its native South Korea, Moving didn’t exactly shake the ground in other places like the United States. But this original superhero action-drama, made for Disney+ and Hulu, is still waiting like a radioactive spider prepared to bite. Based on a popular online comic book, Moving follows teenagers with superpowers whose parents try to hide them when a serial killer of powered individuals is on the loose. While the premise isn’tterriblynew – Watchmen says hello – Moving gets major points for its uniquely Korean take on the genre and a relatable story about the extreme lengths you go to protect those you love, no matter if they’re bulletproof.

1. Doom Patrol (Max)

(Image credit: Warner Bros. Television)

Doom Patrol

The Doom Patrol was, and still is, one of the most eccentric groups of superheroes in the vast DC Universe; comparisons to Marvel’s X-Men are not entirely unearned. In 2019, the Doom Patrol found new dimensions in their very own TV series for the short-lived DC Universe streaming service. (It later imported to HBO Max, before it was renamed Max.) Based on the comics, Doom Patrol follows the title outfit of superheroes whose members not only have bizarre powers, but see them as a curse rather than a gift, having earned them through very tragic circumstances. Tonally irreverent, terrifically inventive, and tastefully tasteless, Doom Patrol shows there’s still magic in the superhero space, and that TV can still be lots of sinful fun.
