Name an unsuccessful sitcom or spin-off that lasted less than two seasons that you actually enjoyed...I finally got the chance to see The New Odd Couple..which I heard horror stories about and I actually liked it a lot..I liked the chemistry between Demond Wilson and Ron Glass and I though Glass made an excellent Felix..

FOX's South Central, CBS' Gregory Hines Show and WB's Muscle, to mention three.

Phenom. Bad News Bears, Angie, C.P.O. Sharkey and shows that were cancelled to early like Norm and Titus.Theirs probably more that I haven't thought of.

Quite a few, but Titus is one that sticks out for me. There's no way that one deserved to be canned.

I remember Phenom. I liked it.

On it's own...Saved by the Bell: The College Years.

I liked Titus, can't really think of any more.

PZelda · 04-29-2004, 10:19 AM

I liked SBTB: College Years (I saw it in its original run) and Flash Forward (I saw that in its original run, too). The College Years only went for 13 episodes, I think, and Flash Forward had 22 episodes during the 1995-96 season.

The US is so mean to Canadian TV shows.

One of my favorite short lived shows was "Norm" with Norm McDonald.

I'm a big Norm fan, and I just loved that show. I wish it did better in the ratings.
