Great TV shows need to strike a balance between being modern and relevant to the time in which they’re airing or being released, and having a certain timeless quality. The best TV shows have strong characters, resonant themes, and compelling storylines that can make them stand the test of time. Series like The Sopranos, Golden Girls, and Cheers still make for a fantastic watch and rewatch decades later, because viewers can still connect with the characters and their journeys.

While there are so many popular shows that have aged well, a lot of the shows that continue to get better with time remain underrated years after they’ve ended. Some of these shows have devoted fan bases but never gained widespread viewership, while others had more attention while they were airing, but are now only primarily remembered by their most devoted fans. These are the forgotten TV shows that have aged like fine wine.

‘Red Band Society’ (2014–2015)

Red Band Society is a teen drama that takes place entirely in the pediatric ward of a hospital. High school cheerleader and mean girl Kara’s (Zoe Levin) life is turned upside down by her heart condition, and she is suddenly admitted to Ocean Park Hospital for a residential stay. There, she meets and starts to bond with the other patients: longtime patients Leo (Charlie Rowe), Dash (Stro), and Emma (Ciara Bravo), brand-new patient Jordi (Nolan Sotillo), and her comatose roommate, Charlie (Griffin Gluck).

Unlike other teen dramas, Red Band Society is confined to one place, heightening the physical and emotional stakes. Every teen in the series is very sick, but they are also each other’s entire social lives at the moment, creating quite a bit of conflict between the group of them. Red Band Society sadly only got one season, but it is a strong one, with 13 episodes that show Kara and Jordi becoming essential members of the group while completely changing as people through their time at Ocean Park.

‘Kevin From Work’ (2015)

Kevin From Work follows Kevin Daly (Noah Reid), a normal and generally not-quite-happy guy who works in a dissatisfying office job. The only bright spot of his job is his work crush, Audrey Piatigorsky (Paige Spara). Kevin’s life is about to change, because he’s leaving for his dream job as a truffle and sea salt manager in Italy. On the night before his flight, Kevin drunkenly writes a letter to Audrey, confessing his love for her. The next day, though, the job falls through. Now, Kevin has to keep working beside Audrey, who has a boyfriend and now knows how Kevin feels about her.

Kevin From Work is a hilarious workplace comedy that pokes fun at rom-coms, carefully deconstructing Kevin’s ideas of the ideal romance over the course of its single season. The show plays around with Kevin’s frequent daydreaming, showing elaborate sequences like a fairy tale daydream with cartoon birds, and a spoof of an old black-and-white movie. Kevin From Work is a fun and silly show that really goes over-the-top with its humor, and it makes for an excellent watch and rewatch.

Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist follows Zoey Clarke (Jane Levy), a coder who’s very serious about her job and close to her family. Zoey’s father, Mitch (Peter Gallagher), has a neurodegenerative disease and is unable to speak. When Zoey gets an MRI to see if she might have his condition, there is an earthquake while she’s in the machine. Zoey leaves the doctor’s office with an unusual superpower: she can now hear the inner thoughts and feelings of the people around her through musical numbers that only she can see and hear.

Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist is a heartfelt dramedy with two seasons and a movie. Zoey starts the series focused on work, her family, and her best friend, Max (Skylar Astin). Through what she calls “heart songs,” though, Zoey’s world opens up. Framed like a procedural, each episode of Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist shows Zoey hearing the thoughts of a different person and trying to help them with their emotional conflicts.

‘Totally Completely Fine’ (2023)

Totally Completely Fine is an Australian dark comedy series that follows a depressed and self-sabotaging woman in her early 20s named Vivian Cunningham (Thomasin McKenzie). Vivian and her brothers were raised by their grandfather after the death of their parents in a car accident. When their grandfather dies, all three siblings are surprised to learn that he’s left his beautiful waterfront home to Vivian. The catch is that the home overlooks a cliff that is a popular local suicide location, and Vivian’s grandfather has entrusted her with the responsibility of saving those who come there.

Totally Completely Fine kicks off when Vivian saves the life of Amy Matthews (Contessa Treffone), a runaway bride who goes to the cliff in a panic. She then moves in with Vivian, and she encourages a reluctant Vivian to keep saving lives like her grandfather knew she could. All the while, Vivian struggles with her own self-destructive tendencies, her fraught relationship with her oldest brother (Rowan Witt), and her lingering grief and guilt over her parents’ accident.

Amongst Mike Flanagan‘s more popular horror series on Netflix is The Midnight Club, an emotional and severely underrated teen drama with a horror twist. The Midnight Club follows Ilonka (Iman Benson), a teenage girl with terminal cancer. After having found stories of a girl with her illness decades before who seemed to have been magically cured, Ilonka goes to spend the rest of her days at Brightcliffe, a hospice center for dying teenagers.

Ilonka is there looking for a cure, but the rest of her new friends are at Brightcliffe because they’ve accepted their fates. She learns that they have a club where they meet every night to tell scary stories, but these stories are far from the only unsettling thing about Brightcliffe. In her search for answers, Ilonka starts seeing horrifying visions and hearing about intricate rituals, forcing her to determine how far she’s willing to go to fight death.

‘Faking It’ (2014–2016)

Faking It is a hilarious satirical teen comedy series that follows two extremely close best friends named Karma (Katie Stevens) and Amy (Rita Volk). They are practically invisible at their very progressive high school, but when they are mistaken for a couple, they are made instantly popular. Karma is thrilled at her newfound popularity, but Amy struggles to maintain their fake relationship as she begins to realize that she has real feelings for Karma.

Faking It is such a fun and silly show with wildly over-the-top humor, sharply funny and strange dialogue, and complex and nuanced characters. The show’s goofy comedy and wild premise are grounded in the very real story of Amy slowly coming to terms with her identity, and Karma being forced to examine her own insecurities and her desperate quest for popularity.

‘She-Ra and the Princesses of Power’ (2018–2020)

She-Ra and the Princesses of Power still has a devoted fanbase now, nearly six years after its conclusion, but it’s sadly been removed from Netflix and is currently unavailable to stream anywhere. The series follows Adora (Aimee Carrero), a young woman who’s been trained as a soldier for an evil army called the Horde for the entirety of her life. Adora is soon pulled to find a magic sword that transforms her into a Princess of Power called She-Ra. This leads Adora to realize that the Horde is evil, and to leave behind everything – including her best friend, Catra (AJ Michalka) – to join the rebellion and fight against the Horde.

She-Ra and the Princesses of Power is a clever series with thoughtful storytelling that slowly unravels over the course of its five seasons. These five seasons are full of nuanced and intentional character development, thoughtful explorations of themes of colonialism and imperialism, and a number of brilliant plot twists that are built up from the very beginning of the series. The show also has one of the best slow-burn romances ever, and a phenomenal ensemble of unique and lovable characters.

Jeremiah Duggar shared his first social media post amid his brother Joseph’s arrest over child molestation charges.

Posting via Instagram on Thursday, March 26, Jeremiah, 27, shared a tribute to his wife Hannah in honor of their fourth wedding anniversary.

“It’s officially been 4 years since we tied the knot. My love for you is deeper now than ever before,” Jeremiah captioned the post, which featured a carousel of couple selfies.

He added, “You are the most incredible wife, and I am so grateful our girls can look up to you as the ultimate role model in their life. Happy 4 year anniversary Hannah!”

Jeremiah had limited comments on the post.

Jeremiah’s post comes after Joseph, 31, was arrested on March 18 for allegedly molesting a girl during a Florida vacation.

The alleged victim, now 14, claimed in a police statement that Joseph “eventually apologized for his actions and the incidents stopped after the apology.”

Joseph, however, remains in jail and is facing multiple charges including two counts of unlawful sexual activity with a minor.

Us Weekly confirmed days later that Joseph’s wife, Kendra, was arrested on Friday, March 20. She was released that same day on a $1,470 bond.

In addition to his solo charges, Joseph and Kendra, 27, are both facing charges of endangering the welfare of a minor and four counts of second-degree false imprisonment.

“He’s currently waiting to be transferred from Arkansas to Florida and he’ll be facing trial on child molestation charges in Florida,” Rachael Bennett, a certified family law specialist and senior attorney at Sullivan Law & Associates, told Us on Thursday after looking into Joseph’s case. “He’s also been charged with the same child endangerment crimes as Kendra [Duggar] related to the home inspection, but those are, I would say, considered secondary.”

Bennett explained, “If he’s convicted in Florida, these specific charges could result in a life in prison sentence and if a life sentence isn’t given, Florida law requires what’s called a ‘split sentence,’ which requires a minimum of 25 years in prison followed by lifetime probation.”

Heather Graham‘s relationship with intimacy coordinators in Hollywood has not been smooth sailing.

The actress opens up, sharing her view based on her personal experience in the industry. Working on sets and projects with a number of explicit scenes since the early 2000s, she has seen both sides of the coin in the industry.

Sex has been a big topic of discussion for Heather Graham, especially because her big break in the entertainment industry came from having steamy roles. Other huge aspects of her life revolve around health and wellness.

Heather Graham Says Intimacy Coordinators Make Her Uneasy On Set

Graham, who rose to stardom with her outstanding role as Rollergirl in “Boogie Nights,” shares how different acting sets were back in her early days. The Paul Anderson film features the actress as the naive porn star in the adult entertainment industry, showing her in various nude scenes. Looking back, the star notes the changes in the ways such scenes are filmed, especially with the presence of intimacy coordinators.

Graham admits that she sees the vision in their presence on set and understands that having them as part of the crew comes with good intentions. Nevertheless, having been in the entertainment industry for so long without having intimacy coordinators, their presence feels odd to her. “There’s this random person in the room just staring at you when you’re, like, pretending you have sex. It’s kind of awkward,” the star explains.

In recent years, intimacy coordinators have become the norm on projects with steamy scenes; they help to choreograph the scenes while making sure the actors feel comfortable. Graham tells US Weekly that she acknowledges their purpose, saying, “I know that they have a beautiful intention, and they really want to help and protect actors.” However, it often feels like there are too many eyes watching her as she tries to get into character fully.

The ‘Boogie Nights’ Star Recalled Other Encounters With Intimacy Coordinators

The actress shared a recent incident that occurred while filming her upcoming horror comedy “They Will Kill You.” The coordinator on set was an adorable lady in her 20s, according to Graham. During the scary scenes, the star felt less worried about the job and more about the person meant to oversee it. “We were doing this scary scene, and I felt like I had to take care of her. The movie star recalled, “She’s like, ‘This is really disturbing.’ And I’m like, ‘I know, I’m sorry, it’s kind of awkward,” Graham added.

On another project, the intimacy coordinator seemingly switched roles into creative direction and started directing “The Hangover” star on how to have sex in a scene, which made her have to use her voice. Graham reportedly told the coordinator that she was not asking for notes, and if she had any inputs, she could share them with the director.

Graham felt having two different people telling her what to do on set was confusing, and so she had to draw a line. Despite her personal notion about it, she sees that younger actors could benefit more from the help of intimacy coordinators. “It might be better if you’re younger and don’t know how to stand for yourself and speak up for yourself. At this point, I feel like I’m strong enough,” the actress stated.

The Entertainer’s Reason For Getting Into Roles With Sexual Contents

The on-screen star previously shared that accepting her role on “Boogie Nights” was a huge step out of her comfort zone. She had initially turned down projects involving explicit content due to her upbringing. “I grew up in a religious family, and they were like, ‘Don’t do anything with any sexual content,’” Graham shared on a podcast two years ago.

“But try to be a woman in Hollywood in your early 20s, mid-20s, and then to try to get no roles with any sexual content, it’s like impossible,” she added, noting that she had to go against her family’s wishes. Accepting the role of Rollergirl was a major turnaround for her career. Although the 56-year-old star found her debut nude scenes terrifying, she rose to the occasion.

The Hollywood Reporter reported that Graham had some concerns as a woman in the industry. Nude scenes create a space for vulnerability and for viewers to see certain flaws. Ultimately, she had to get it all out of her head and channel her character’s inner mindset. With this, the actress found the courage to perform her best in the film.

The Hollywood Icon Admitted That Sex Is Part Of Her Personality

Over a decade ago, the “At Any Price” star got candid about her real-life relationship with love-making. Despite being a pro at intimacy on screens, she reportedly struggled to come to terms with the actual process. Metro reported that Graham previously admitted that it took her a while to admit that she feels good about sex, as she constantly questioned her motives behind the feelings.

“Sex is a part of who I am, and it took me a long time to feel good about it,” she disclosed before saying, “I wasn’t sure if it was good or bad to be a person who really enjoys sex. Sex is an aspect of my personality.” She addressed the bias women face for being vocal about their sexuality. The entertainer voiced that the ultimate form of freedom is for a woman to be able to express her sexuality.

She also stated that the American culture at the time did not provide a safe space for women to express themselves sexually. To prove her point further, Graham cited that there are so many movies about men’s fantasies, but little to no attention is given to those of women.

Heather Graham Is Focused More On Her Health These Days

Graham believes that her health takes the number one spot in her life, even above her career. She insists that health is everything; hence, she pays closer attention to what she eats, exercises, and meditates. While she admittedly had unhealthy habits in the past, she has made conscious efforts to put that life behind her.

Graham previously revealed that she tries to stay away from white flour and sugar completely. In the same vein, she does not see the use of GLP-1s like Ozempic as something to include in her regimen. Instead of turning to pharmaceuticals for weight loss, the actress says working out, doing yoga, and dieting do the trick for her.

She also has never gone under the knife for any cosmetic procedures, although she has tried Botox, fillers, and microneedling. The Blast notes that Graham stressed her desire to be as natural as possible and enjoy her life to the fullest.

Taylor Frankie Paul has returned to social media after ABC canceled her season of The Bachelorette amid domestic violence allegations.

Posting via her Instagram Stories on Thursday, March 26, Taylor, 31, thanked her supporters amid the scandal.

“Thank you to every check in, call, prayer sent,” she wrote. “Your unconditional kindness and check in can be someone’s lifeline.”

Taylor, best known as a star on Hulu’s The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, was set to lead the 22nd season of Bachelorette. Us Weekly confirmed on March 19 that ABC no longer planned to air the episodes after resurfaced 2023 footage of Taylor assaulting ex-boyfriend Dakota Mortensen.

“We have made the decision to not move forward with the new season of The Bachelorette at this time,” a spokesperson for Disney Entertainment Television told Us in a statement. “Our focus is on supporting the family.”

Taylor also issued a statement about the programming change.

“Taylor is very grateful for ABC’s support as she prioritizes her family’s safety and security,” a rep for the social media star said in a statement shared with Us. “After years of silently suffering extensive mental and physical abuse as well as threats of retaliation, Taylor is finally gaining the strength to face her accuser and taking steps to ensure that she and her children are protected from any further harm.”

Taylor’s rep continued, “There are too many women who are suffering in silence as they survive aggressive, jealous ex-partners who refuse to let them move on with their lives. Taylor has remained silent out of fear of further abuse, retaliation and public shaming. She is currently exploring all of her options, seeking support, and preparing to own and share her story.”

Taylor started dating Dakota, 33, after her 2022 divorce from ex-husband Tate Paul, with whom she shares two children — Indy, 8, and Ocean, 5. Taylor and Dakota later welcomed son Ever in March 2024, continuing to see one another on and off.

Taylor claimed to Us in September 2025 that she and Dakota separated for good earlier that year before she was named the next Bachelorette. The MomTok influencer left to film The Bachelorette shortly after hooking up with Dakota, and the show wrapped in December 2025.

Nearly two months later in February, Utah police opened a domestic violence investigation after Taylor and Dakota got into an altercation.

“There’s more to the context to everything and it’s unfortunate,” Taylor exclusively told Us on March 17. “It’s been hard, and it sucks to be in this position. The mother that I am, that is something I will always stand my ground on. I believe that I am a good mother and I have always treated my kids very well.”

Dakota, for his part, released his own statement and stated that Ever’s well-being is “No. 1 priority.”

“He knew there was a possibility it could come out, but he was not going to be the one to proactively do that because he has always wanted a decent relationship with Taylor,” a rep for the DadTok star said at the time. “It’s been really hard to achieve that, but he wants to coparent well.”

Dakota also filed a restraining order against Taylor, requesting sole custody of Ever.
