Stephen King has weighed in on his picks for the most underrated shows on television, and you're going to want to add these to your watchlist. Replying to a post on Twitter about the TV show From, he shared his praise for the science fiction horror.

"The most criminally underrated, underappreciated show of all time," shared a user called Aryan wrote about From. "It deserves global recognition, one of the best shows of recent times in every aspect. Hats off to @HaroldPerrineau." King replied: "Yes. This show, and Evil on Paramount+. Also, now, Netflix."

Both horror hits have been hugely popular with audiences and critics, sitting at near-perfect Rotten Tomatoes scores. From stars Harold Perrineau as Boyd Stevens, who is the sheriff of a small town in America that traps anyone who enters it. Those inside must fight nightmarish creatures as they search for a way out. Currently ranked at 96% on Rotten Tomatoes, the show is due to return for its third season later in September.

Evil is a procedural that follows a forensic psychologist, a Catholic seminarian, and a technology contractor who investigate supernatural events. The series ran for four seasons on Paramount Plus, and was equally critically acclaimed with a score of 96% as well on the review aggregator. 

This isn't the first time that King has shared his love for the series either, tweeting at the end of August: "Dear Paramount+: More EVIL, please." Your move, Paramount.
