I was wondering if anyone had a copy of the episode featuring Adam West. It was cancelled before it aired.

All I've ever seen are the three episodes that aired, and I haven't seen episode #2 in about 20 years. My VHS copy got misplaced or erased somehow.

Of course the promo for the Adam West episode appeared at the end of ep. 3, but that's all I've ever seen. You'd think that they would have given THAT episode a chance. It looked promising.

You're right, just from the commerical value of his appearence, you'd think ABC would've aired it. The ironic part is that it was replaced with the show SABLE, which also had a very short run.

I remember the promo they ran for the episode with Adam West and was looking forward to seeing and taping it; then at the last minute they decided to replace it with another short lived series titled "Sable."

The second episode of Once A Hero set a new record low Nielsen rating for a network program the night it aired (IIRC it was 3.1 or close to it; my how times have changed!) and ABC gave it one week to double its rating or get pulled. Episode 3 wasn't double ep 2's rating and it got pulled.
