Rosaline

You don't need another list of "underrated comedies" — Rosaline in the US on Starz Apple TV Channel, and in the UK on Channel 4 Plus earns the label on its own. It says what it needs to say in one sitting, no filler. A 7/10 rating says what the writing already makes obvious: this one works. Kaitlyn Dever sets the tone, and the rest of the cast matches it scene for scene. Start it on Starz Apple TV Channel whenever you need something guaranteed to land.

Rosaline arrived without much fanfare and built its audience the hard way — through word of mouth. Rosaline does what great comedies rarely manage — it is actually funny, consistently, across the whole run. Left heartbroken after Romeo begins to pursue her cousin Juliet, Rosaline schemes to foil the famous romance and win back her guy in this comedic twist of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. Between them, Kaitlyn Dever and Isabela Merced carry the comedy without ever forcing it. It hit screens in 2022. Rosaline earns its laughs from character rather than situation, which is why it does not wear thin the way pure farce tends to. It delivers reliably on what it promises, which is more than most of its competition manages.

If you need a comedy that actually makes you laugh, Rosaline is a strong candidate. If you have run out of similar titles to watch, this is a strong next pick. Short enough to finish in one sitting, substantial enough to feel satisfying. Kaitlyn Dever is funny in a way that holds up on rewatch. Put it on when you need something guaranteed to land.
