10 TV Shows That Deserved To Become Cult Hits (That Didn't)

Long before he was sitting behind a UFC commentators desk or nodding along to his guests on the Joe Rogan Experience, the star found himself acting as one of the key players in NBC hit sitcom NewsRadio.

This workplace comedy show centred around the staff working on a New York City news radio station, and saw the likes of Rogan, Dave Foley, Stephen Root, Maura Tierney, and Jon Lovitz having the time of their lives cracking wise and regularly clashing in hilarious fashion.

Yet, despite bringing a whopping 97 episodes of shenanigans and lunacy to NBC fans over the course of its four-year run, the show has since all but evaporated, with it often flying under-the-radar on streaming services and not being the sort of series folks are quick to flick on in the background after work.

Which is a bit of a shame, as the often chaotic and charming half-hour delights unquestionably had all the hysterical elements regularly found in eventual cult sitcom hits like Parks and Recreation and Community. But it just hasn't quite been able to keep from becoming one of the '90s greatest forgotten comedies in the years since its initial acclaimed run.
