Let's look at some of the names you'll find in Party Down - Adam Scott, Jane Lynch, Lizzy Caplan, Ken Marino, Martin Starr, and Ryan Hansen. That's just the main cast; you'll be seeing more stars than there are in the night sky if you include the guest roles too. Still, have you seen Party Down? Chances are you haven't.

This star-studded series explores the lives of a group of actors/writers who try to make it big in Hollywood, only to spend their days as caterers.

It's a show full of plus points, with one of the firmest being the accurate and believable depiction of struggling to achieve your goals in life. Whether you have aspirations to work in the creative industry or not doesn't matter, as you'll still easily understand the themes of this show. Oh, and it's side-splittingly funny, of course.

Unlike many underperforming sitcoms, Party Down got the luxury of concluding its story thanks to its 2023 revival. Shockingly, this six-episode third season wrapped the show up in a satisfying bow. This means you can enjoy it from start to finish with no qualms about it being unfinished.

Party Down is often labelled the quintessential underrated sitcom, and once you check it out for yourself, you'll see why.
