Underrated Shows That Overdeliver

My hobbies are television, movies, and Netflix.

Many well-known shows are very good. However, there are better shows just lurking in the distance that not many people are aware of or could conceive their incredibleness. These underrated shows and the messages sent from them are literally constantly relevant in the watchers lives, while not being so mainstream that they are diluted with political correctness and constant grievances of making everything a little bit too socially acceptable . These shows are just trying to elevate small talk to medium talk, bringing in the reality of life, love, and friendship.

1. Chuck

This about the average computer-whiz-next door living out everyone's dream of having a computer in their brain, becoming a secret agent, and falling in love with their handler.

2. Scorpion

Scorpion is a group of certified geniuses coming together solving complex crimes for US homeland security, while also being loosely based on the life of Walter O'Brien.

3. Shameless

While both the UK and US version are equally fantastic, it is a comedy-drama about a dysfunctional family which we can all relate to.

4. Lovesick (Scrotal Recall)

"Lovesick" is a British sitcom focused on basically one guy and his ultimate plight, the love he has for his best friend Evie, and the girls he goes through till he gets to her.

5.Love

The most honest representation of modern dating and everything about it that is kinda great and kinda sucks.

6. Sex&Drugs&Rock&Roll

Remember Jade from "Victorious"? Yeah, she's in this and she literally Rocks!

7. Jane the Virgin

Honestly, the title of this show should pull you in enough. Every question that you have ever had is answered in the way of a satirical rom-com.

8. MONK

This is what happens when an OCD recluse solves crimes.

9. Psych

Best friends solving crime and one of them is psychic? This is literally an indescribable paradigm of entertainment!

10. Sons of Anarchy

"Sons of Anarchy" is about an outlaw motorcycle club operating in Charming, with lots and lots of family drama.Once you see these you may never be able to stop watching, because all of these are recommended by 4 out of 5 people that recommend things.

10 Truths About Being In A Sorority

I remember my freshman year oh so well. I remember feeling terrified the night before orientation. The one thing that I dreaded the most was not the new people, the new environment, or even the academic pressure. I was dreading having to talk to sorority girls about Recruitment. I remember cutting off and avoiding any Rho Gamma/Panhellenic Officer that came my way during First Week. I looked at them like they had asked me to cut my arm off whenever they asked me if I wanted to rush. To be honest, I did not even know what rush was, but I knew that I did NOT want to be a part of it. To me, it was dumb. It was a waste of money. It was a waste of my time.

And guess what? I did not rush my freshman year. I spent the first half of my freshman year isolating myself from everyone on campus. I spent all of my time in the library, and then (since I was a commuter) went back home once my work was finished.
