Over the last decade, there’s been a huge shift in TV. Instead of watching reruns on broadcast television and buying massive sets of DVDs and Blu-rays of your favorite series, most are turning to streaming. With services like Peacock, Netflix, HBO Max, Hulu, and Paramount+, it seems like almost any show you could possibly want is available to stream on-demand. Unfortunately, that’s not always the case.
In reality, there are hundreds of TV shows that are nowhere to be found on streaming services. Sure, you might be able to buy them digitally, but in a world where we subscribe to so many streaming options, you might be surprised at what you don’t have access to. Iconic shows like the sitcom Laverne and Shirley or the sketch comedy series like SCTV are nowhere to be found in the streaming world, which means, for a new generation that doesn’t spend their evenings surfing through cable channels, they are essentially lost.
We’re holding out hope, though. There are too many wonderful shows out there just dying for a chance to find new life on a streaming service. Here are 11 TV shows we think need to be picked up by one of the streaming services immediately. They’re too amazing to simply fade away.
