3 top Under-rated TV Shows

There are some shows on TV that I love and that are very smart, funny, clever, etc., but do not have the same publicity and following as other shows like CSI for example. But these shows are some of the best out there and if you've never heard of them, now is your chance to TiVo and catch up on what you've been missing.

1. Monk
Monk is such a clever show with a great cast. Tony Shalhoub who plays the main character Adrian Monk is a fantastic actor. He has been nominated for many awards from playing Monk but does not get all the praise he should from the general public. He is an obsessive compulsive brilliant detective who tries to not let his compulsions get in the way of solving crimes. Great show, great writing, great acting, just great everything. Watch it on USA Network on Fridays 9/8 Central. New Episodes start on January 9th.

2. Psych
Psych is on right after Monk. Basically two friends who start a phony agency titled "Psych." One the the main characters Shawn Spencer has photographic memory and is good at solving crimes pretends to be psychic and works for the police department. His best friend Gus is always along for the ride although sometimes not willingly. Very funny show and the two main characters have a wonderful relationship on camera and you will laugh at least once while watching this show, promise. Airs on USA Network Fridays at 10/9 central. New episodes begin January 9th.


3. The Closer
Kyra Sedgwick plays Deputy Chief Brenda Leigh Johnson who is very good at getting confessions from criminals and interrogating. She has a great southern drawl and is a complex character that drives her finance crazy sometimes. Oh and she loves junk food. The show is very well written and keeps you guessing. The cast is amazing and everyone and everything about the show just clicks. You'll know what i mean when you watch it. It airs on TNT Monday nights 9/8 central. New episodes begin January 26th.


These are all I can't think of right now although I am sure there are many more underrated shows. Don't forget to watch the all time best TV Show The Office! :) What are some shows you think are underrated?

I really like Bones. I enjoy the relationship between Bones and Booth because they are basically married but don't know it. They are so committed to each other as human beings without having to say vows or live together or even have sex.

Its also nice to see a portrayal of a male/female relationship where they are truly equals. Neither one is the sidekick of the other. I think that is rare.

I also like the humor and the really gross dead bodies.
