here's a few i haven't seen mentioned yet:

oz - uncompromising US prison drama

garth merenghi's darkplace - deadpan british tele-horror parody

the mighty boosh - absurdist musical stage-theatre from the UK

dirk gently's holistic detective agency - fast-paced comedy with an interesting premise that plays out like a douglas adams novel

happy - netflix series which combines a gritty procedural crime-drama with a cartoon mascot. Very violent and dark humour

that plays out like a douglas adams novel

It is a Douglas Adams novel series.

But yes, great show.

Oz was really good. Lotta gay rape/sex, but a really good show.

Tell me, is the name of this hospital Saint Crock of Shit? Is this a crock of shit that I'm holding?
