Unaired Episodes - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I was looking at the Mr. Belvedere site at TV TOME and in the episode guide I noticed that ABC stopped showing FIRST-RUN Mr. Belvedere episodes in December 1989. They left 8 UNAIRED episodes which were most likely going to be shown from January-May of 1990. Then Mr. Belvedere came back to air the SERIES FINALE in July 1990 which was a two-part episode that aired on July 1st and July 8th of 1990.

So, DID Mr. Belvedere's ratings drop the last season where ABC pulled the series halfway through and never aired the UNAIRED episodes???

Did the 8 UNAIRED episodes ever air in syndication or any other outlet???

The series was cancelled with only 8 more episodes to go. But later came back to air it's season finale.

The unaired episodes do air in syndication.

The guy who wrote the Mr. Belvedere theme has a website that I found...

http://www.garyportnoy.com

but Mr. B isn't on it yet....

Also, you say those lost episodes air in syndication... but I haven't seen Mr. Belvedere in Syndication in several years.

Unfortunately Mr. Belvedere was one of those sitcoms that got trashed at the last season such as Just Shoot Me, Family Matters, etc.

Belvey faced the ax several times during it's run (too bad for a very underrated writing crew) as they were taken off and returned three or four times. But finally in Jan of 90 they were gone for good after about 12 episodes. I collected Belvey's up to that point so I never got those unaired eps. I did see them once in syndication, and they were pretty lame. Beauty pagaent protests, a baby visits and causes havoc, Belvey buys a donut shop, Wesley has an interracial romance with a girl who works there. The only really funny ep is when Belvey's mom comes to visit. But it's cool that an underappreciated show like Belvey has mystical "lost" episodes heh heh.
