I almost forgot about <b>Dr. Katz</b>. Comedy Central doesn't even play the re-runs anymore. They should get rid of <b>Strip Mall</b>, <b>TV Funhouse</b>, or <b>Battlebots</b> and put Dr. Katz back on.

Oh well, its my pick and defintely one of the best most original shows ever made.

Great show and it is definitely missed. I always preferred Joel over Mike so I lost some interest before it ended, but when it was good, it was an amazingly good show. Got to meet Mike up here at a book signing last spring and he's just a great, funny, regular guy.

Now & Again (not to be confused with Once and Again, the Sela Ward show from ABC).

I also loved Snoops! As for SOB, it's coming back very soon!:D

Another vote for Newsradio. It was one of the most intelligent comedies I've ever seen, but the public wants six twenty-somethings with looks and nothing to do instead. Even if Lovitz did replace Hartman, he did a good job and Dave Foley was great in it. Oh well......

I remember seeing this show once or twice. It got cancelled after the second episode I think. ABC didn't even give it a chance. :(

I second that. That is, if hasn't already been seconded. I'm far too lazy to continue to the bottom of the page.

Anyone else want to petition Fox for this on DVD? I love my late Sunday night repeats.

One of my favorites ever. I likes Brooklyn Bridge too. Very different types of shows, I know.:)

To the people wondering about Family Guy, I pulled this from http://www.thefamilyguy.com :

Family Guy WILL RETURN!!! 24.01.2001.

Many of you have been emailing us asking about the return of Family Guy...well here is the low down. Family Guy WILL return to the fox broadcasting line-up for it's 3rd season. It is expected to be airing sometime in Spring or Summer 2001. This summers ratings will most likely determine if the show will sign on for a new contract or not so be sure to watch every episode :)


Hell YEAH! :)

No Use For A Name 02-25-01 02:52 AM

Sports Night
Action
Freaks and Geeks
Cupid...

...I know there's more but I can't think of them.

How do shows like these get cancelled, while derivative shows like Will and Grace get awards?

thegame370 02-25-01 04:36 AM


I might b the only dweeb saying this but i was a huge Beverly Hills 90210 fan and i miss the show. If your talking about old school shows i miss:

Growing Pains
Fresh Prince of Bel Air
Perfect Strangers
Roseanne
Whos the Boss
Saved by the Bell
Martin

louiseb 02-25-01 08:16 AM

Plus shoot, what was the name of the one that I think had "Bob" in the name, had one of Bridges brothers in it, don't think it was even on a full season, but I loved that show!

and I was liking The Street

IdgIe49 02-25-01 09:29 AM

I cant believe no one said The V. mmmm that Marc guy was a hottie.

Also:

2000 Malibu Road
Class of '96

There's another one that I don't remember the name. With a guy named Scout, and the girl who dressed up like a boy so she could go to an all boy's school? It was only 6 episodes and hasn't been on since.

Profit ( this show was not given a chance at all , damn fine show )

MST3K ( Sci-fi didn't know what the hell to do with this show)

Sports Night ( At least can watch West Wing still )

Twin Peaks ( I wish they would at least do a reunion movie to clear up the cliffhanger )

Freaks And Geeks ( great show , I hope Apatow's college show that is going to be on Fox will get more of a chance )

Snoops ( I think Paula Marshall is cursed, any show she is on gets cancelled pretty damn quick )

Clint
