10 Great TV Shows That Are Ugly On Purpose

10. The Mighty Boosh

If you're not familiar with the bizarre world of The Mighty Boosh, then you're in for the kind of ride that can only be described as trippy.

Mighty Boosh is a show created by the comedians Noel Fielding and Julian Barratt. It's a wacky series full of silly scenarios and surrealism that often borders on the nonsensical. Plus, it's full of vulgarity, cheapness, goofy costumes and, worst of all, jazz. All of this melts together in a melting pot to create a mind-boggling aesthetic that is one of the show's key selling points.

The series thrives on its ugly roots. Since the first episode, it has been full of practical effects with creatures, monsters and all sorts of odd props. There's a crack fox, a man made of cheese, mutant zoo animals and a fish person, and that's only scratching the surface.

They're all made with a deliberately cheap quality, looking like they were patched together with random pieces of household items found the day before shooting. But that "homemade" feeling and the general grossness of the creations is an integral part of the show's appeal.
