The Top 10 Underrated TV Shows on Netflix
  1. Dark

Set in a town shrouded in a troubled past, this German series unfolds a gripping narrative that exposes the dark secrets and mysteries that have haunted the community for decades. The story takes an unexpected turn when a child goes missing, sending shockwaves through the town and unraveling a complex web of events that span multiple eras.

With its stunning visuals and haunting soundtrack, Dark masterfully crafts an atmosphere that is both captivating and unsettling. As the series progresses, the tension builds with each new development, keeping viewers on the edge of their seats.

In season two, the narrative becomes even more intricate, jumping between different time periods and introducing even more inexplicable and ominous events as the number of missing persons rises to six


2. Alice in Borderland

Despite gaining popularity, Alice in Borderland remains a hidden gem, undeservedly overlooked by the general public. Based on the acclaimed manga by Haro Aso, this Japanese science fiction thriller drama follows the harrowing journey of two unlikely allies who find themselves trapped in an abandoned Tokyo, forced to navigate a series of perilous survival games. The show's standout cast delivers remarkable performances, making each character incredibly relatable and endearing.

Fortunately, Netflix recognized the show's exceptional quality and critical acclaim, deciding to renew it for a second season. This is a testament to the show's enduring appeal and its potential to captivate audiences.

  1. Sex Education

As a teenager, Otis (Asa Butterfield) is plagued by the feeling that everyone around him is engaging in sexual activities, leaving him feeling awkward and uncomfortable with the very idea of sex, masturbation, and intimacy. To make matters worse, he's growing up in a sex-positive household under the watchful eye of his mother, Jean (Gillian Anderson), a sex therapist. The constant presence of erotic art, oversized dildos, and couples engaging in intimate activities only adds to his unease.

However, Otis finds an unexpected solution to his dilemma by partnering with the rebellious Maeve Wiley (Emma Mackey) to offer sex therapy services to his peers. As you can imagine, this unique business model provides plenty of comedic opportunities. Thanks to the clever writing of playwright Laurie Nunn, this raunchy yet heartwarming teen comedy tackles sensitive topics with humor and sensitivity. Praised by critics for its honesty, this future classic is sure to educate and entertain audiences on the complexities of sexuality.

  1. Imposters

Imposters is a dark comedy that follows the antics of a cunning con artist who effortlessly charms her way into the lives of multiple partners, only to disappear with their wealth. The show's clever writing and comedic timing, which expertly blends slapstick humor and witty dialogue, make it a standout. It's surprising, given its unique blend of humor and intrigue, that Imposters remain relatively unknown.


Unfortunately, Netflix's decision to cancel the series after just two seasons likely contributed to its lack of recognition. Despite this, Imposters remains a hidden gem worth discovering for fans of dark comedies and clever storytelling.

  1. Feel Good

In the semi-autobiographical romantic comedy series "Feel Good", show creator Mae Martin stars as a fictionalized version of themselves, navigating a new romantic relationship with Georgia, a woman who is still in the closet to her family. Meanwhile, Mae grapples with their own personal struggles with past drug addiction, which complicates their relationship.

The show thoughtfully explores themes of queerness, mental health, and gender identity, providing a relatable and authentic portrayal of the challenges and joys of navigating love and relationships.
