You, me and the apocalypse. Biggest cliffhanger ever, especially with no series 2. I'm still sour about that.

There have been a veritable ton of amazing shows from Adult Swim that flew under the radar. My three favorite are:
- Dream Corp LLC
- Your Pretty Face is Going to Hell
- The Heart, She Holler
Dream Corp was my favourite, sad it didn't continue. Early Mark Proksch is fucken gold.
Others have already recommended Pushing Daisies, Wonderfalls, and Galavant. All are worth another mention.
I'm surprised only one other person mentioned Final Space. At first glance you might think, "Oh, it's just a Rick and Morty knock off." You'd be wrong. It's much more Futurama in tone than it is Rick and Morty. I'm not afraid to admit Final Space is the only cartoon I've watched as a grown man that made me cry. On multiple occasions. It hits you right in the feels, hard.
No Heroics, only lasted a few seasons in the UK which means only maybe 12 episodes. (You may also see some actors from Ted Lasso if you look carefully.)
Sprung - about a group of small time cons trying to do the right thing and con only bad guys in the community while surviving covid and falling into a found family. Very funny and sincere.
Lots of great classic recs here.
I'm gonna just add two that are relatively recent.
The Last Man On Earth AP Bio
Coming to this late, but both Chris Elliott comedy vehicles that tickle me to this day:
Get A Life
Eagleheart
Comrade Detective
Fictional 1980s Romanian buddy-cop propaganda tv show promoting Soviet communism - filmed in 2017. Dubbed into English with voices including:
Channing Tatum Joseph Gordon-Levitt Nick Offerman Jenny Slate Jason Mantzoukas John DiMaggio
It’s fucking amazing
4400, but it was a wierd hybrid of superpower humans and dystopian future+ time travelling of mankind, basically in the future the wealthy/aristocratic were living in prisitne cities while everything was a version madmax and judge dredd future. threshold was another one. the "rich people" found out about the scientist going back in tiem to prevent this future, so they sent thier own agents to the past to stop it.
Manchild (2002)
We Are Lady Parts - a more recent one. Dramady following an all-girl Muslim punk band in London.
