10 TV Shows That Deserved To Become Cult Hits (That Didn't)
6. Just Shoot Me!
Another NBC sitcom smash that has somehow managed to almost entirely disappear from human consciousness in the years since it dropped off the face of the Earth, Just Shoot Me! initially made a name for itself as one of the networks biggest comedy hits in the late '90s and early 2000s.
Bringing together a collection of side-splitting entities in the form of David Spade, Laura San Giacomo, Wendie Malick and more, the show centred around a group of employees going about their business whilst working for a fictional fashion magazine by the name of Blush.
Joining NewsRadio as a workplace comedy sensation that definitely appeared to have found its audience, maintaining strong ratings throughout its seven-season run on the network, Just Shoot Me! unfortunately also accompanies that fellow largely loved '90s comfort watch as a well-received but generally unremembered camera flash in the pan.
That being said, the show's Slow Donnie episode from Season Three is still classed as one of the finest comedy episodes in TV history by many. Though that, and the fact the one-time NBC chuckle-generator is now readily available to binge on Hulu, hasn't been enough to establish the laugh-a-minute classic show as a cult go-to half-hour of joy for the streaming generation.
