Here's proof you've never dug into Netflix deep enough.

If you're a fan of different TV shows, there comes a day when you feel like you've seen them all.

From the more popular and highly acclaimed to the less popular and more controversial, from fantasy to true crime, from Love Is Blind to Midnight Mass.

If you're already feeling that way, don't rush to switch to another streaming service, because there's still a good chance you haven't dug deep enough to find some truly hidden gems.

Here are just 5 that might make you reconsider canceling your subscription.

People Just Do Nothing

If you liked UK Office, you might enjoy this show as well. It is a mockumentary with a name that speaks for itself. A very good kind of show to choose as a background show, and just a hilarious comedy to spend your evening on.

Lovesick

Another great comedy about a character who takes love a step further and literally gets sick from it.

You will definitely enjoy this series and find it even more relatable if you are in your 30s and know the struggle of reconnecting with your past partners.

The Magicians

Often referred to as Harry Potter for young adults, the show will tell the story of young magician Quentin Coldwater who attends Brakebills University, a secret institution that specializes in magic.

You can already imagine how much fun and danger magic can be mixed with the standard struggles of the college experience.

Twenty-Five Twenty-One

Fresh from production, this 2022 Korean series focuses on the romantic lives of five characters from 1998 to 2021. Thanks to the interesting timeline choice and great acting all along the way, the series will not leave anyone indifferent.

Undercover

This is a drama about undercover agents who infiltrate a drug kingpin's operation by posing as a couple at the campsite.

Produced in Belgium and the Netherlands, it's in Dutch, but if you don't mind subtitles, you'll be pleasantly surprised by the quality of the show. Beware, it is highly addictive!
