Short Lived Sitcoms Playlists - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Sal · 05-19-2025, 10:16 PM

I've been talking about this on other pages for a few days now and it's finally here today. A new fantasy playlist channel filled with short-lived sitcoms, classic TV comedies that were not around for very long and rarely get seen anymore either on TV or online. I am here now to fix that problem. The shows I will have on this channel will be listed in chronological order from the 1950s onward. Each specific year will be linked to a YouTube video that highlights every short-lived series of every type from that year. Here's an example of what was seen in the 1966-67 TV season.

1966-67

Not every show will be featured here. I have limited the selection to series that lasted for one season, where at least half of the episodes are available to be seen for free online. I will also take requests for any that I may have missed. One series that I would definitely like to include is "Stanley" from 1956 which starred Buddy Hackett, Carol Burnett, and Paul Lynde. I remember seeing and liking some episodes on TUBI a few years ago but they have all disappeared. If it turns up again, I will definitely feature it here. (UPDATE: I have found it! It's here! Look below.) I will begin today with a group of short-lived and mainly forgotten sitcoms - with one notable exception - that are all from the 1950s.

1952-53 - My Hero - 33 episodes

1953-54 - Meet Corliss Archer / Link 2 - Internet Archive - 39 episodes

1954-55 - The Mickey Rooney Show/Hey Mulligan! - 38 episodes

1956-57 - Date With The Angels - 33 episodes
