This thread might be a little different than the one on long running shows that are completely forgetton about. After all things like Murphy Brown were HUGE when they originally aired.
I’m particularly curious for about shows most people probably never heard of.
It may not be an ideal choice for this thread, but this thread was inspired by remembering The League (2009-2015) existed. SEVEN SEASONS.

When the Lucas Till MacGyver reboot first started, all I read online were horrible reviews for its early episodes. I figured it would be canceled soon and just kinda forgot it existed. I was shocked when during the pandemic I read it was still on the air and looking to wrap up after season five. And now I'm going through the same thing with the Magnum PI reboot.

How the hell has Big Mouth gone as long as it has?
Like, I have never seen a single person online talk positively about this show. In fact, 99% of the discourse I see is literally just "why is this show still on?"
WHO IS WATCHING BIG MOUTH!?

When I found the syndicated version later thought it was boring. They later brought back the original star to replace his replacement.

Yes Dear lasted 6 seasons. It's probably the most mid sitcom ever, not horrible or unwatchable, but nothing groundbreaking either,,HOW DID THIS GET 6 SEASONS?

Old people watch TV. JAG had higher ratings than Buffy.

I was coming in to say The League. I've seen every season for some reason, even though 7 is painfully unfunny and Taco is one of the worst characters ever.

I’ll bet that not a lot of people know that NCIS is a spinoff of JAG.

I didn't know of that show's existence until 2004 when it came on syndication, whether it's on a local channel or on TBS. I read that it started in 2000, which blew my mind at that time because I never knew about it. Then again, I didn't really watch CBS at that point. I didn't mind the show for what it is, though, but it seemed like Greg Garcia (who was a co-producer for that show) hit his stride when he did "My Name is Earl" and "Raising Hope."
