Have you ever loved something, only to realize it’s a commercial flop or just obscure? What’s something that deserves more light than it got?

So far I’ve loved every tv show Taika Waititi has been involved with, and many of them I’ve only found out when checking “ok, what else has he done” on wikipedia. Most recently, Reservation Dogs and Our Flag Means Death.
Also, I think there are many canadian tv shows that are really good and deserve a wider global audience: like Heated Rivalry, 19-2 (the original one in French) and Happily Married (C’est comme ça que je t’aime).
I got a recommendation for the Canadian show North of North here on Lemmy, and while not the best show ever, it was quite enjoyable, and IMO a great example of the importance of DEI (sounds like a lot of support went into making the show happen at all, but precisely because it wasn’t the typical concept/setting to get greenlit it felt really fresh).
I’ve watched the first episode, yeah doesn’t look like it’s gonna be the Inuit version of Reservation Dogs as I would’ve hoped, but still probably a show I’ll enjoy watching.
Have you seen Wellington Paranormal? That’s a fun one. Hunt for the wilder people is a good movie too.
Wellington Paranormal is hilarious. Didn’t know about this movie though, will add to my watchlist, thank you!
Our Flag means Death was so good! It is a tragedy that it was canceled. Taika had one more season planned and it was very popular. Seems like the higher ups didn’t like that it was too woke.
