Here be many of those wonderful "edgy" TV shows we grew up with, the ones generally out of the mainstream, but commanding a loyal following throughout their run, and re-run. As diverse as "Kojak" and "Six Million Dollar Man", "The Monkees" and "Twin Peaks", "Max Headroom" and "Red Dwarf", "The Hitchiker's Guide To The Galaxy" and "The Young Ones"....
The motherlode of "Cult TV" can be scrolled below, however "Comedy TV' , "Drama TV" and "Sci-Fi TV Series" may be worth a scroll. For the whole nine yards stay with "Television Shows"
