View Full Version : Favorite 'short-lived" 90's Tv show
Kickin' it off with "They Came From Outer Space" (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0098927/) I loved this show :thumbup:. I wonder if it still holds up.

We had a kid in our neighborhood that played the son on that short-lived sitcom "Hi Honey I'm Home". Nobody ever let him live it down.

My actual answer is The Dana Carvery Show. Utter brilliance, only lasted 8 episodes but probably has the greatest cast of writers of any show in the past 25 years.
The writing team included Charlie Kaufman, Louis C.K., Dino Stamatopoulos, Spike Feresten, Stephen Colbert, Steve Carell, and Robert Smigel.

Boy did I watch too much TV growing up. Remember the episode where the dad got a gun for protection and it was an Uzi and he thought a robber was in the house so he jumped out of bed and shot but it was actually the dog but it was ok cause the dog caught the bullet in his teeth?

Am I wrong for thinking "Flying Blind (http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/05/25/short-lived-shows-flying-blind/)"?
Téa Leoni and a David Byrne song as the opening theme.

I'm gonna give Tub some credit on this one. That show was really intellectually based and from my understanding became a cult favorite in England.
Kudos to you for enjoying the Ned Hermann brain dominance model (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herrmann_Brain_Dominance_Instrument)in action.

Fucks no. The Critic is one of the finest cartoons ever. Lampooning shitty movies weekly, even as a kid I loved that show.

and there was a super hot guy on that show with the character name Slash...but i think he was probably only hot to me because of his long hair.

heres two
First, was it called "Whoops"? it was the end of the world and the only survivors are stereotypes. The regular guy survived cuz he was in his volvo but i remember a really preppy guy too
also, i know i'll get shit for this, but i watched every episode of "The Secret Diary of Desmond Pfifier" and i thought it was some funny shit

oh, and that "Married With Children" spinoff with Matt LeBlanc!
oh, and that "Married With Children" spinoff with Matt LeBlanc!
There were two Matt Lablanc "Married... with Children" spin-offs. The first one was "Top of the Heap" where his father was trying to get him to marry a wealthy woman. The second was "Vinny and Charlie" (or something like that) where Lablanc and his friends hung out and did things. I didn't watch many of the second spin-off because it was on Saturday nights, and I had infinitely beter things to do.
Drexell's Class, with Dabney Coleman and Jonathan Winters!
One of his daughters was on "Son of the Beach" the other was Brittany Murphy.
I remember an episode where the older daughter participated in a beauty contest and her talent was pitching. For some reason, Steve Garvey was a judge in the contest and was almost struck out, when on a 0-2 pitch Garvey destroyed the ball, shattering her chances to win the contest.

This was a great show. I love Dean Cameron and check up on him every now and then. He currently has a 1 man show about his correspondence with a Nigerian email scammer. The other dude was selling bootleg "They Came..." Dvds on his website I think.

Seriously... MURDER ONE is my favorite television series. It isn't "one of" my favorites. It is easily my #1 all time favorite.
They tinkered with the cast and the concept for the 2nd season which was quite good... but not great.
But holy shit, that first season was fantastic.
Great cast. Great concept. Great "gimmick". Great acting. Great music. Smart smart stuff.
