Default If there was a short lived TV shows channel

If there was a channel that aired short lived tv shows (lasting no longer than two full seasons), what shows would you want to see on this network? Here is my list:

Square Peqs

Get a Life

Grady

Working

Working Stiffs

Police Squad (though I have all of the episode on tape, the back ground music for certain scenes on the Paramount home video version is different then the original broadcast version)

Me and the Boys

Cop Rock (though I might get sick of the show after a while)

Off the top of my head, some one or two season shows...

The Ropers, Three's a Crowd, Teachers Only, One in a Million, Checking In, Sanford, Sanford Arms, Grady, Gloria, 704 Hauser, The Dumplings, The Royal Family, The Trouble With Larry, Tabitha, Thunder Alley, Family Dog, She's the Sheriff, Blansky's Beauties, Who's Watching the Kids?, Joanie Loves Chachi, Out of the Blue, Fish, Filthy Rich, Babes, Baby Talk, Bridget Loves Bernie, His & Hers, Have Faith, Life With Lucy ... and some shows that lasted more than 2 seasons: Hearts Afire, Hooperman and Anything But Love.

I hope I didn't miss anything.

Looks like this thread was posted twice. I posted my answers in the thread on the Spin-offs and One Year Wonders board.

Good pick, I remember that show. That was when the prime time soaps like Dallas and Dynasty were hot. I was into Morgan Fairchild back then.
