Two unique shows cancelled after two seasons. Both have qualities I've not seen in other shows. The Knick has a unique atmosphere that makes it really appealing along with a brilliant soundtrack that you would never expect from a period drama. Tokyo Vice's story telling is uniquely a mix of English and Japanese and blends the two so naturally. The acting in both shows is superb and I wish we had more.

The 7 Lives of Léa
Interesting French Netflix mini-series. Way better than it has any right to be considering its scale and I don't think it's gotten the attention it deserves.
I recommend watching in French with subtitles.
Life on Mars (2008, the US version.)
The UK one was fantastic. Did you see both and then pick the US one specifically, or is it the only one you saw? I haven't seen the US one, but I'm interested now!

The Dead Zone
I’m not sure if it is obscure, but I had never heard of it. Husband and I have been watching SyFy’s Channel Zero and love it.
The first season freaked me out so much I never got around to watching the following seasons. I hear they are even better though. Maybe someday I'll get around to it.

There have been a veritable ton of amazing shows from Adult Swim that flew under the radar. My three favorite are:
- Dream Corp LLC
- Your Pretty Face is Going to Hell
- The Heart, She Holler

Others have already recommended Pushing Daisies, Wonderfalls, and Galavant. All are worth another mention.
I'm surprised only one other person mentioned Final Space. At first glance you might think, "Oh, it's just a Rick and Morty knock off." You'd be wrong. It's much more Futurama in tone than it is Rick and Morty. I'm not afraid to admit Final Space is the only cartoon I've watched as a grown man that made me cry. On multiple occasions. It hits you right in the feels, hard.
