There's simply no way to put together a list of bizarre television shows without Mark Frost and David Lynch’s early nineties brainchild, Twin Peaks. This slow-burning serial drama was the perfect combination of '90s aesthetics, campy melodrama, subtly weird dialogue, and oddly inspiring themes. In Twin Peaks, a FBI Special Agent named Dale Cooper, ...
This science fiction anthology series is the stuff of legend, and even now, 55 years after its release, just about everyone knows what it did for the television industry. It’s not often that older pieces of media can maintain such complete watchability in the modern world, butThe Twilight Zoneis still as addicting to watch as it was decades ago. Fr...
The Outer Limits was The Twilight Zone’s little cousin that annoyed the crap out of him because the little jerk was constantly trying to imitate everything he did. Criticisms aside, this series did feature a few episodes that didn’t feel like a cookie-cutter imitation of The Twilight Zoneand were actually immensely entertaining. Despite being incre...
Anything that comedy duo Tim Heidecker and Eric Wareheim do together is usually appealing to very specific people. You either love their work, or you absolutely hate it. Translation: you’re either completely and utterly insane or you’re a well-rounded member of society (if perhaps a bit on the boring side). Their sketch comedy series Tim and Eric A...
This is the only reality TV series on this list, but it's more than earned it's place amongst the weirdest of the weird. While many episodes of this are pretty sad and disheartening, there are also some episodes that are so strange and disturbing that they make us feel like some weird alternate reality has taken over our world. My Strange Addiction...
This British comedy series that may or may not finally get a movie is the perfect amount of unique, artistic, funny, and strange. Comedians Julian Barrett and Noel Fielding are the comedy troupe behind BBC's The Mighty Boosh, a show that evolved from live stage productions and a radio series featuring characters that the duo created. The first seas...
Avid Adult Swim fans first saw Off The Air by accident on New Years Day 2011 at four o'clock in the morning. 4 AM is one of those sleepy, strange hours where reality seems to change a little bit no matter who you are, so suddenly stumbling upon the LSD trip that is Off The Airin a graveyard slot without any context of what it was was something memo...
This avante-garde horror miniseries was another strange creation from King of Weird David Lynch, who actually refers to the series as a sitcom. In Rabbits, three anthropomorphic rabbits (one of which is actually Naomi Watts in a rabbit costume) exist in a living room and have bizarrely disjointed non sequitur conversations with each other while lau...
Eerie, Indiana comes off as equal parts a spooky Goosebumpsseries spinoff and something straight out of a David Lynch film. This NBC childrens show from the early '90s is actually neither, but it is certainly strange enough to deserve a spot on this list. In Eerie, Indiana, a teen named Marshall moves with his family to the small town of Eerie. Eve...
If Eerie, Indianawas too creepy for children, then this BBC children’s show from the '80s should have been outright banned. Jigsaw was for the most part a cute educational show for children that focused on fun puzzle solving games and kid-oriented humor. Much of the show was based on audience interaction, similar to Dora the Explorer. However, ther...

- SpongeBob Squarepants. Probably the most famous example, Nickelodeon's SpongeBob Squarepants debuted to screens everywhere in May 1999 and continues to reign as one fo the most, if not the defining cartoon of the 21st century.
- Don't Trust The B---- In Apartment 23. Despite only airing for two series, it would be pretty difficult to forget a show like Don't Trust the B---- in Apartment 23.
- Lovesick. Many television watchers and current fans of the Channel 4/Netflix series Lovesick fell in love with the romantic comedy back when it debuted in 2014 as Scrotal Recall and yet the name did not deter them but rather drew them to the series altogether.
- Crazy Ex-Girlfriend. Crazy Ex-Girlfriend is another series with a title that does not hold back on the alarmist undertones, suggesting that the protagonist is someone that should be feared, disregarded, and questioned.
