7. Brickleberry (2012-2015)
This sitcom centers around the forest rangers working for the Brickleberry National Park. It is because of their ineptitude that not many tourists are coming to the Park anymore. When a new ranger called Ethel Anderson is brought in to give things a push, it is not received well by Ranger of the Month Steve Williams. The internal politics between them is the main source of the show’s humor. It must be noted that some people have found the humor of this show to be offensive.
6. Moonbeam City (2015)
‘Moonbeam City’ is a neo-noirish TV series with rich colors and plenty of raunchiness. The central character of this show is undercover detective Dazzle Novak who is more busy indulging in excesses than actually solving crimes. The series might remind you of some of the famous erotic thrillers of the 1980s like ‘Basic Instinct‘ and others, but its main issue is that it is loaded with immense style but very little substance. The humor is pretty over-the-top and the plot is not that engaging as well.
5. Axe Cop (2013-2015)
This series is based on the comics created by Ethan and Malachai Nicolle, and centers around the eponymous cop who apparently sleeps for two minutes every night and eats nothing but cake. Axe Cop is the ultimate vigilante and goes around fighting crimes with the help of his sidekicks Sockarang, Gray Diamond, Liborg, Bat Warthog Man, and Wexter. From Hitler to an evil Santan Claus to werewolves- no evildoer can escape the wrath of Axe Cop. Although it is an adult show, there is a certain childishness to the leading character which will make you fall in love with him in no time.
4. Black Dynamite (2011-2015)

3. F Is for Family (2015-)
A Netflix original series, ‘F Is for Family‘ centers around an American family in the 1970s, and does a tremendous job in bringing to life all the nuances of American culture of that era. The central character of the series is Frank Murphy, a middle-aged veteran with a short temper who lives with his family in suburban America. From the clothes to the music to the language- the best aspect of this series is its immense attention to detail. Although the dialog is laden with profanity, it cannot be denied that the series is quite enjoyable.
