Share and Follow

Hulu has no shortage of buzzy originals and popular titles like The Twisted Tale of Amanda Knox, but sometimes the best shows are the ones flying just under the radar.

Whether you’re in the mood for a clever comedy, a stylish period drama or a spine-tingling thriller, the streamer has options you might have missed the first time around.

That’s where Watch With Us comes in — we’ve pulled together three underrated shows that deserve a spot in your watchlist.

Check out these hidden gems over the weekend.

‘This Way Up’ (2019-2021)

This underrated comedy stars Irish comedians Aisling Bea and Sharon Horgan as two sisters trying to figure out life. Áine (Bea) is recovering from a nervous breakdown that put her in a rehab facility, while Shona (Horgan) seems to have it all together — a great job and a great boyfriend — but is considering cheating with a female colleague.

If Hulu is your streaming service of choice, you have plenty to look forward to when it comes to fun and engaging television series this summer. Whether you’re turning up the heat in the kitchen on The Bear or fantasizing about the summer compound of your dreams on Beach Hunters, the platform has plenty of […]

As the sisters navigate relationships, careers and mental health, one thing’s for certain — they’ll have some zippy one-liners along the way. Poignant and hilarious, this two-season comedy is the perfect quick weekend binge.

‘Dope Girls’ (2025)

A period drama with some serious bite, Dope Girls takes place at the end of World War I and is inspired by the life of drug queenpin Kate Meyrick. Loosely based on the nonfiction book Dope Girls: The Birth of the British Drug Underground by Marek Kohn, the series follows housewife Kate Galloway (Julianne Nicholson), who sets up an underground nightclub to provide for her daughters.

She soon runs afoul of drug dealers, gangs and the police, but she rises to the occasion to become just as ruthless as her foes. Sadly canceled after one season, Dope Girls is still worth a watch — it’s a gritty and smart period crime drama.

‘Castle Rock’ (2018-2019)

Maggie Q in Ballard

Watch With Us is always keeping an eye on the drama series on Amazon Prime Video — that way we can recommend you the best of the best. This month, we’ve added one of the hottest cop shows on TV, as well as an underrated period fantasy drama with a literary twist. From Josh Hartnett and […]

This relentlessly spooky and clever horror drama is based on the works of Stephen King, including Cujo, The Green Mile, The Shawshank Redemption and many more. It revolves around the town of Castle Rock, Maine, where mysterious things always seem to happen. The two seasons feature different casts telling interconnected stories, but they all have the same creepy tone and reverence for the source material.

The casts of seasons 1 and 2 include Melanie Lynskey, André Holland, Bill Skarsgård, Sissy Spacek, Lizzy Caplan and other veteran actors, all of whom deliver the chills you’d expect from any King work.
