Netflix users are eagerly tuning into an ‘underrated’ series that boasts a 96 percent score on Rotten Tomatoes, all in anticipation of its upcoming new season.
The streaming giant offers a wide range of content, from gripping true crime series to feel-good coming-of-age films.
Among these, an Australian comedy, praised by fans as ‘witty and hilarious,’ has become a favorite.
The series originally premiered on the Australian Broadcasting Network in 2021 and was subsequently renewed for two additional seasons.
It gained international recognition when it was added to Netflix two years later.
According to Flixpatrol, the first two seasons amassed over 34 million hours of viewing between July 2023 and June 2025.
However, many fans are puzzled as to why more people aren’t aware of the show, which is set to return with its third season on Wednesday, August 20.
The storyline revolves around Helen (Kitty Flanagan), a lawyer who finds herself dealing with a messy divorce and a career setback.
She accepts a position at a small suburban law firm in Melbourne that focuses on wills and probate law, effectively handling people’s estates posthumously.
This setting becomes a hub for quirky clients, awkward scenarios, and the clash between Helen’s straightforward demeanor and the eccentric individuals she meets.
The series, titled Fisk, has achieved an impressive 96 percent fan rating on Rotten Tomatoes. The lack of critic ratings might contribute to its ‘most underrated’ status.
A Reddit user asked fellow Netflix viewers for recommendations on ‘the most underrated show you have found on Netflix.’
“Sometimes I stumble upon a show I have never heard of before and end up loving it way more than I expected,” the user shared.
“I am curious if anyone else has had this experience. What is the most underrated show you have discovered on Netflix that more people should watch?”
Nearly 1,500 people joined the discussion, with many quick to recommend Fisk.
“Fisk! Can’t wait for season 3 [this] week,” commented the first person to propose the show.
“Yesss, Fisk is hilarious,” one individual replied, and another chimed in with: “Best answer.”
A third participant exclaimed: “OMG this show! It has no right being as funny as it is. I cannot believe more people aren’t watching it!” while a fourth concurred: “Right? The writing is so sharp! It reminds a bit of Arrested Development as it is worthy of rewatching to catch what you missed the first time.”
“Fisk is so, so good. So fun for a lighthearted watch,” another social media user remarked, while someone else described it as ‘deadpan and witty but not over the top.’
If you find yourself unsure of what to watch next, consider giving Fisk a try. Its third season, which premiered last winter in Australia, will be available on Netflix in the US, UK, and other regions on Wednesday, August 20.
