Because I've never met anyone else who ever watched it and I haven't been able to pirate it:
An action/comedy police procedural about a unit of the Chicago PD that manages cryptids (called "Links" in the show). A little bit like a terrestrial MIB.

Corner Gas, brilliant comedy about a tiny Saskatchewan town set around a gas station that is connected to a diner and the oddball people that live there.
You'll come for the quaint setting, stay for the Jackass screaming Oscar.
ZeroZeroZero is a great crime mini series about the drugs trade. Stellar cast.
Others have already recommended Pushing Daisies, Wonderfalls, and Galavant. All are worth another mention.
I'm surprised only one other person mentioned Final Space. At first glance you might think, "Oh, it's just a Rick and Morty knock off." You'd be wrong. It's much more Futurama in tone than it is Rick and Morty. I'm not afraid to admit Final Space is the only cartoon I've watched as a grown man that made me cry. On multiple occasions. It hits you right in the feels, hard.
There have been a veritable ton of amazing shows from Adult Swim that flew under the radar. My three favorite are:
- Dream Corp LLC
- Your Pretty Face is Going to Hell
- The Heart, She Holler

Better Off Ted
I forget the name of it, but you might enjoy the show rob lowe is currently doing on Netflix can't remember the name
Edit Unstable is the name of the show
I did not see Herman's Head mentioned. I've only met one other person that remembers it. Not great in a change-your-doors-of-perception for life, but a fun sitcom from the early '90s.
I remember it, the intro more than the show itself lol.
... And now I'm thinking of the show Night Court lol
Wait! Louise! Played by Yeardley Smith who voices lisa simpson!
She's not the only Simpsons voice on the show either. Hank Azaria (who plays Jay) also voices somewhere around 1/3 of male Springfield citizens including Moe, Chief Wiggum, and dozens of others.

Lots of great classic recs here.
I'm gonna just add two that are relatively recent.
The Last Man On Earth AP Bio
Danger 5. Greatest Australian comedy of all time. https://youtu.be/0Z09bNgSeMI

The Leftovers - 2% of the worlds population just vanishes. Enough to freak people out but not cause the complete collapse of civilization.
The Endgame - High class criminal commits crimes by way of getting herself arrested. There's only 1 season. Ignore the last ~10 minutes of the last episode and the story wraps up fine.
Counterpart - Mid-level bureaucrat finds out there's a doorway to a parallel dimension with whom the world's been in a secret cold war
The Lost Room.
Not sure where you can find it, though.
Torrents for it are around
My grandma got that for me on DVD ages ago. The first few episodes are rough, but it's really gripping by the end.
These don’t seem obscure to me but most folks I know have never heard of them:
What We Do in the Shadows
Sealab 2021
Parks and Rec
Party Down
Freaks and Geeks
Venture Bros
Sealab 2021 is classic Adult Swim. Same with Venture Bros. Love them both!
If you liked what we do in the shadows...
Wellington Paranormal - it's about the police tasked with investigating all the dumb shit that goes on in what we do in the shadows. Gold.
Are we having fun yet.
I know like 3 people that have seen party down and 2 of them watched it with me.
