San Pedro Beach Bums? - gee, I thought I was the only person who watched that...hilarious (although, wasn't it San Fernando?)
Profit was very cool.
A few years ago there was something titled "The Fifth Corner"
American Gothic.
probably more, if I thought about it for a while

My wife thinks that I am a curse. If I like a show with mediocre ratings, it goes away. The mediocre shows that I skip last for years.

I really enjoyed "The Heights" starring Jamie Walters. I even bought the soundtrack on tape. It really was a dope show. Anybody else remember this show?

At least I think I am, it's been about 18 yrs since I saw it. But I seem to recall enjoying it quite a bit.

Does anybody even remember this show? I'm a sucker for knights and wenches. The Adventures of Brisco County Junior is a close second. I'm alos a sucker for Westerns.

Police Squad! - Classic TV, simply said.
and
Uncle Buck - You know, this show wasn't half bad. Would've been better with John Candy, but it wasn't half bad.

I don't mean to be a wise guy but for those who liked Police Squad, I'm pleased to say that I have all six episodes on laserdisc. They're great!
I think Dark Shadows ran MANY more than one season.
And Tales of the Gold Monkey? Of course, I remember it -- featuring the lovely Caitlin O'Heaney (also in "He Knows You're Alone," Tom Hank's first movie.)

Not the REMADE 1991 version. :)

There is a show I catch every once in a while on the sci-fi channel called "Prey." It had a very good storyline going which was unfortunately cut off.

I'll second The Adventures of Brisco County Jr. and Kindred: the Embraced. Granted i've never watched either of these shows, but ANYTHING with Kelly Rutherford in it has got to be good!

But my serious vote goes to Police Squad!. This show succeeded in showing one thing...that the t.v. watching public has NO sense of humor!

I thought SPORTS NIGHT was a great show, although it may have gone for 2 seasons.

High Incident - mid '90s cop show
and Third Watch
whatever they put on this season with that name was not the same show I watched the first season, so I am counting it! :)

One show that I really liked, it was Stressed Eric. Another one of those british comedy series from the BBC(?) which was animated and quite funny. Too bad it probably flew over the heads of the viewing public over here in the US..
