It took over 500 episodes, but we are finally talking about what many consider to be the worst television show of all-time (https://web.archive.org/web/20061031125239/http://www.jumptheshark.com/m/mymotherthecar.htm). A man's deceased mother gets reincarnated into a 1928 automobile, communicating with her son through the radio. That's the premise. Jerry Van Dyke passed up being Gilligan for this.
