Underrated shows and films with less than 1000 watchers
This list is made for shows and films that are underrated and haven't gotten enough viewers. Some people (myself included) only watch shows with a high number of ratings, views, and starring popular actors. Because of that, it can be hard to find shows to watch that don't rank highly or are popular. I’ve stumbled upon some great shows with low ratings and viewer counts that I ended up loving.
Please add shows that you enjoyed, deserve more praise, have under 1,000 watchers*, and if possible have English subtitles. This list's purpose is to encourage people to find and watch shows that are underrated, under appreciated, and under recommended.
*I will be checking and if a show has more than 1000 watchers at the time of being added, I will remove it from this list. On desktop, watchers are shown under ratings.
