"Absolutely crazy series, I love this kind of thing:) I liked everything: and all these colorful characters, and the way the authors drove on detective stamps, and how they turned inside out the modern agenda. And all of this at top speed - only time to keep track of all the many jokes and plot twists. Just great!" — Willful.
"The series gained momentum with each episode and the final episode didn't let down either, gorgeous performance by Tatushna All the things she said, and after the last scene I was laughing in my voice, just a perfect ending!" — darling.

But the atmosphere is unreal. Volunteer weekdays are coolly shown. There is even a desire to join
Extraordinary (Incredible) chic, light, cute and funny series. It's a pity that little is known about him.
Miss Davis is too overrated, rather a series than underestimated in my opinion)
And here is "The Lockwood Agency and Company ", which did not get into this list, just generally undervalued. No one has heard about him, despite the ratings, and unfortunately, after the 1st season is closed. Maybe that's why. Awesome fantasy and not at all childish, as it may seem from the first reading of the notation.
"Drops of God " just an awesome series, I watched it with such pleasure.
Dramatic, Korean TV series that makes och hurt moments "Good Bad Mother" https://myshows.me/view/83557/
Probably means little-known. Really, how is it defined? In terms of the number of viewers at the mayshouse? "Drops of God" has almost 3,700 of them, "Mrs. Davis" has 4.5k, "Deadlock" 1.6, and "Incredible" has 7.5k in general. The spread is interesting, so how much does it take to be considered undervalued?
Jury Duty and Deadloch seem to look funny, thanks, we should try.
Of the undervalued this year, of course, Aurora and, and, and perhaps that's it. There are thirty shows in the list of watched shows, but there is simply nothing to recommend.
