There are certain TV shows that basically everyone is familiar with, like Friends, The Office, and Game of Thrones. But do you also have that *one show* that's firmly drilled into your brain, yet nobody else seems to remember it? For me, it's Ryan Murphy's 90s teen drama Popular starring Leslie Bibb and Carly Pope.

Recently, Reddit user u/CatGirlNya2000 asked, "What's a show you remember but nobody else does?" Whew, this thread unlocked something DEEP in my brain. Here are some of the shows people are convinced they might have imagined:

Note: Some of these responses have been edited for length and/or clarity.

1. "I remember liking this TGIF show called Just the Ten of Us in the late 80s. I don't even know if it was good, and it didn't last long, but I was into it as a kid."

2. "Eek! The Cat. No one I talk to seems to remember that show."

3. "A cartoon called Silverhawks. They were cyborgs in space that could sprout wings, and the show was in the vein of He-Man."

4. "I remember watching Ghoswriter on PBS when I was younger. To this day, I haven't met a person who has watched it."

5. "Does anyone else remember Sagwa, the Chinese Siamese Cat? I used to watch it every morning before school, but it’s like it vanished from the face of the Earth."

6. "I’ll Fly Away. It was about a Black housekeeper in the south in the 1950s and 60s, during the Civil Rights Movement. Sam Waterston from Law & Order plays the dad, and Jeremy London is also in it."

7. "Rolie Polie Olie. I specifically remember an episode where there was a solar eclipse."

9. "Dear John starring Judd Hirsch, Jere Burns, and Jane Carr. It was hilarious."

10. "This Disney show Pepper Ann. I vaguely recall watching it when I was very young, but nobody else my age seems to remember it."

11. "Hey Dude on Nickelodeon."

12. "An all-CGI show back in the 90s called ReBoot. I remember one of the main characters was named Dot Matrix. They lived in a place called Mainframe, and they had to participate in games that users started."

13. "The Maxx was a collective hallucination that MTV accidentally broadcasted for one summer."

15. "That’s My Bush!, a live-action sitcom-style parody comedy by Trey Parker and Matt Stone about the 'hijinks' that George W. gets into while he's POTUS. It was hilarious, but it had the unfortunate timing of airing only a few months before 9/11. There was only one season."

16. "Did anyone else like Small Wonder back in the day? I've heard some people refer to it as the worst sitcom of all time, but I really liked it when I was little."

17. "Nick News. I think it had a profound effect on my deconstruction from my conservative upbringing nearly two decades later."

19. "The Adventures of Brisco County, Jr. with Bruce Campbell. It was only one season, but it's the best sci-fi western ever."

20. "The Pirates of Dark Water. It's not necessarily a huge secret or lost media, but I do feel like a lonely fan."

22. "The Critic was a great show with some all-time gags, but it's hard to find now."

23. "Better Off Ted didn’t get a fair chance."

24. "The Weekenders. It was a Disney Saturday morning cartoon about a bunch of kids who just hung out at the pier and ate cheese fries. It was an awesome show, but nobody knows about it."

25. "Today’s Special with the mannequins that came to life in a department store at night."

26. "Out of This World, where the main character could freeze time by touching her index fingers together and unfreeze it by clapping her hands."

27. And lastly: "The Big Comfy Couch."
