When I think of cult classic, I think of something that wasn't very successful during its original run but still has a very devoted following (a la the original Star Trek).

*Western Cartoon:

*Live-Action:

*Anime:

Batman was considered to be campy schlock when it first ran but is now a cult classic the same with Gilligan's Island, Voyage To The Bottom of The Sea, UFO, Lost In Space, and Land Of The Giants.

The term 'worst show' wouldn't apply but the original Twilight Zone has enjoyed cult status in reruns over the years.

Gilligan's Island was just an awful, awful show, but it has somehow managed to be a cult classic.

Thunderbird's and other supermarioation shows were considered hokey in their first runs but are now sought after by collectors.
