How about Herman's Head?
How many of these shows listed do we think will make it to DVD, not many.

These aren't all flops, some are ones I wish were still playing.
Movies: Doc Savage, The Shadow, Zorro the Gay Blade (Hey! if you haven't seen it, don't judge it.), Moon Over Parador TV: Bosom Buddies, Pinky and the Brain (One is a genuis, the other's insane. Narf!), The Flash, Tom Snyder Show, The Naked Truth (just the first season, after that they ran it into the ground), Sports Night, Frank's Place (the episode with the dead body - ha!). There are several more, but when a tv show is on for only one season, you tend to forget them after a couple of years. |

Wonderfalls was the first show in ages that made me laugh so hard I fell off the couch, and I totally loved Firefly. It's at the point now where we don't want to watch new shows on Fox, because unless it's "Reality, with an extra side of sleaze" it's going to get cancelled before the first season is over. How do they expect these shows to get a fan base when they show only four episodes while switching nights and timeslots every week? Many of the most popular TV shows took a long time for the fan base to come and the cast to really get in to their roles.
Ok, anybody remember Tales of the Gold Monkey, back in 1982? And what about Space: Above and Beyond? A crying shame they didn't at least wrap that story up. Oh yeah, and before I forget, how about the Bruce Willis movie Hudson Hawk? Everyone seems to have hated it, but I find it a lot of fun and have probably watched it 30 times.

I was a big fan of "The Lone Gunmen," the spin-off show from "The X Files." Well-written and brilliantly performed and directed, it was just a great show.

Seinfeld for example was not a very funny show at first. It was a bit boaring. Its been many years since it ended and I still laugh all the time at the later ones. It's my favorite show. I think that if they start off good, by the fourth episode, it gets a bit worse, and the producers feel that it will only get worse from there. But I guess the the producers of Seinfled felt that it had potential. I also think that the second episode of all of these flop TV shows are the best ones off all of them. The first show is to introduce the caracters and the second is the best idea of all of the plots they have thought of, in my opinion. |
