There's a whole lot of weird out there in the world these days, and a surprising amount has made its way into mainstream media. Since there’s already a 15 Weirdest Movies Of All Time, a follow-up version of the list for the small screen just had to made. There's quite a lot to go through, as well. Television has produced a lot of completely insane series through the years.

We’re looking for things like overall entertainment value, disturbing scenes, bizarre and enigmatic characters, and interesting plots in TV shows when we went about compiling this list. We’re not looking for strange shows that rely on a ton of gore, but rather shows that use shock and uncanniness to get its weird brand across.

There’s quite a bit of variety on this weird TV show compilation. From goofy comedies with an artistically bizarre flair to downright disturbing storytelling dramas, this list has something for everyone. None of these shows may be fun for the whole family, but they are fun for an uncomfortable night in.

Are you ready for a strange good time? Get weird with The 15 Weirdest TV Shows Of All Time.

7 EERIE, INDIANA

Eerie, Indiana comes off as equal parts a spooky Goosebumps series spinoff and something straight out of a David Lynch film. This NBC childrens show from the early '90s is actually neither, but it is certainly strange enough to deserve a spot on this list.

In Eerie, Indiana, a teen named Marshall moves with his family to the small town of Eerie. Every citizen of the town has something off about them, sans Marshall's new friend Simon. The two face strange and unsettling events that include situations derived from real urban legends and doppelgängers. The show seemed just a little too creepy for its time, especially as a kid's show. What normal childrens series opens with “To whom it may concern: If you’re reading this document, it means I’m either dead or disappeared under mysterious circumstances”?

While Eerie, Indiana may not be terrifyingly bizarre enough to scare the crap out of an adult, watching the series as a child in the '90s was borderline traumatizing.
