What film, show or game that is not necessarily 'underated' didn't have the level of social impact it deserved. (slrpnk.net)

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.

Heroes. The first season was so damn good and then the last writers strike completely killed it.

    If memory serves, it was written as a miniseries, not a show that would span multiple seasons. Then the network saw how popular it was and demanded multiple seasons. But the writers had already written all the source material they had expected to.

    Not a miniseries but more like America Horror Stories, each season would close out and the next one would introduce new heroes with new problems discovering their powers. Like you stated dollar signs, and fear that the public wouldn't get it.
