I was just wondering what shows everyone thinks should have been cancelled before they started. This may have been posted before I don't know because I'm new to the boards.

well, i never really liked Gillians island but i like it.. it hard to explain... the show annoys me but i still watch it. I'd say probably i would've done the show differently. I didnt like Brady Bunch that much... but i like to make fun of it.. so i couldnt live without. um... alot of the shows out now are really bad... OHHH I GOT IT! I HATE KING OF THE HILL! if i could cann a show, it would be King Of The Hill... i didnt like Hillbillies either. lol

Andy Griffin.... i didnt like that one either!

The following shows should have been canned before they even started:

"All in the Family"
"Cheers"
"CSI: Crime Scene Investigation"
"The Facts of Life"
"The Family Guy"
"Fear Factor"
"Friends"
"Howard Stern"
"Jackass"
"Jerry Springer"
"Married ... with Children"
"Roseanne"
"The Shield"
"The Simpsons"
"Three's Company"
"Will and Grace"
"WWF Smackdown!"

My picks are:

"Taxi"
"Gunsmoke"
"Bonanza"
"Maude"
"The Beverly Hillbillies"
"My Favorite Martian"
"Barney Miller"
"Hogan's Heroes"
"The Facts of Life"

I'm going to let some of the older shows slip by, but there are a few recent shows that should have never made it to prime time...

"Leap Of Faith"
"Inside Shwartz"
"The Single Guy"
"Baby Bob"
"According To Jim"

I forgot to mention "Beverly Hills, 90210"!

Green Acres is a good one. I loath redneck comedies, so I guess you could add The Jeff Foxworthy Show to my list as well.(Both ABC and NBC)
