Yeah, I'd say it lasted about a year.
"Weird Al" was actually a pretty funny show, although the format was kinda taken from Pee Wee's Playhouse.
Still, it attracted a quite a few guest stars, from what I remember.

But, I think like a lot of "Saturday Morning" shows, it was over the kids heads, and it didn't attract enough of his fans or adults; the audience he was really trying to entertain.
