Shows that you liked that got cancelled too fast
Minding the Store (or whatever)
Whatever that show was with Pauly Shore managing the Famous Comedy Store. It was on TBS for a bit and I thought every episode was hilarious. Too bad it is no more. Kid Nation Has anyone watched the only season of this show? The whole thing is SO funny. The kids are so messed up and the host is probably the goofiest guy on the planet. There are countless others, such as Undergrads, Clone High, Undeclared, Freaks and Geeks |

I kinda like Tru Calling, it was cancelled after the first season but not until after the first 5 1/2 episodes of season 2 were taped, so they decided to finish the 6th episode before stopping production.

Drive all 4 or 5 episodes Fox aired were great.
Knight Rider may get cancelled and I really enjoy it for some strange reason. |

I actually liked the show Reunion on Fox. The idea behind it was great, just the ratings were awful

Also, I liked a couple of VERY short lived US game shows, one of which I have very little recollection of:
Winning Lines with Dick Clark, and I can't remember the title of the other one, but they had a bonus round that winning the bonus prize was contingent on spelling the word HOLLYWOOD, with a big giant replica of the HOLLYWOOD sign (as an LED). Anyone remember this show? and how could I forget, The NEW Price Is Right with Doug Davidson (1994-1995) Last edited by DAMN iNATOR; 04-22-2009 at 02:51 PM. |

No. You are probably confusing it with Where In The World Is Carmen Sandiego?, which ran from 1991-1996. Where In Time Is Carmen Sandiego? ran for nearly two full years, from October 7, 1996 (within several weeks to a month of the end of WITWICS) to October 2, 1998.
Oh, and although Lynne Thigpen was "The Chief" for the full 7 years, the two shows had different hosts. Greg Lee hosted World, while Kevin Shinick hosted Time. |

Carnivale was amazing. So pissed that one got cancelled. Wasn't even cause of ratings, as it was one of the highest rated programs when it was on. Fucking budget reasons. Cheapskate bastards.

I quite liked the CGI Spider-Man series that was out a few years ago, but it was only on for one season before being cancelled.

She go from Nashville to Norway, Bonaire to Zimbabwe, Chicago to Czech and Slovakia AND BACK!

Oh tell me where in the world is... Oh tell me where can she be? Ooh, Botswana to Thailand, Milan via Amsterdam, Mali to Bali, Ohio, Oahu...! MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY AT FIVE!

Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego? WATCH YOUR BACK! Rockapella's a really great group, with several cd's out. Most of the original members aren't part of the group any more (in fact, they had gone through a couple changes before and during WITWICS). If you get a chance you should check out their song "Zombie Jamboree". It's pretty cool in a silly sorta way. Last edited by parkmania; 04-22-2009 at 04:41 PM. |

I live for the day that Pauly Shore and Carrot Top have a show together so I can Uzi the place and get rid of them at the same time.

Part of me wants to say, Angel. But it ended quit strong, and had 5 seasons, so in some ways it doesn't apply to the Q.
