Short-lived and Cancelled TV series on DVD (1 Viewer)

[Tommy G]

Oh how I would love to see The San Pedro Beach Bums again. I remember laughing a lot as a kid but I'm not sure it would hold up today as mostly everything was funny when I was a kid. That and the fact that it was canceled only after a few episodes. It was really normal back in those days to try and launch a show from other successful shows. For instance, there was one episode where the Angels from Charlie's Angels had to judge a beauty contest in San Pedro. Another episode had the "bums" taking a cruise on The Love Boat. Classic stuff!

I second John Doe. Man that's just a great show.
I also second Second Noah, that was one of the first primetime drama's I remember watching, there were some cute chicks on it at the time (course I was only 13)
I remember "Major Dad" I loved that show. Wish that would make it out to dvd, I'd at least give it a rent.

 

[Daniel Gurecky]

Some of my favorites that I'd like to see:

Code Red

240 Roberts

LA Firefighters

Major Dad

Key West

Tales of the Gold Monkey

 

[Pete Battista]

I completely forgot about Major Dad! I haven't seen that show in so many years... I would definitely buy season sets of it!

 

[LCD22]

Legend

Jake 2.0

John Doe

Peacemakers

Beyond Reality

Working

Time Trax

Freakylinks (I never saw "Freakylinks", and if Sci-Fi doesn't air this once they're done with "John Doe", I'll probably check it out on DVD.)

Flash Forward

Still Life

Mysterious Ways

 

[Ethan Riley]

Yeah...I forgot about Central Park West. I usually mention it on these lists. That show kinda killed the whole prime time soap genre, but it was kinda funny, too.

 

[Heathen]

Men Behaving Badly

Tremors

 

[Todd Stout]

I thought of a few more that I'd love to have:
Project UFO
Firehouse

240 Robert

I'l take:
* Probe
* Misfits of Science

* Second Chance (yes, really)
* The Dana Carvey Show
* Andy Richter Controls the Universe
* Skin
* Seven Days
* Jack of All Trades

 

[Valerie G.]

John Doe
Hope Island
Sons of Thunder

For JOHN DOE, they should also include some new wrap-up episode or special.

This is what I've been wanting ever since FOX cancelled the series. I still think they should do this, because the show has probably picked up some new fans with its recent airing on SciFi.

Sorry all, I love Valerie Bertinelli, have since the first episode of One Day at a Time.

 

[Michael Alden]

Small Wonder? I'd rather have My Living Doll than that...unfortunately, I understand only a few episodes of that are still in existance so we'll likely never see that.

I am working with someone with regards to finding the prints although thus far it's a mystery as to what happened to them. There are right now 10 of the 26 episodes known to exist. If we ever do find it we will put it out and I can tell you from the ones I have seen, the show is hysterical. Julie Newmar is great in this.

I'd love to have

"Mr. Sterling"

"Mysterious Ways"

"Occasional Wife" (what a great show!)

"Love on a Rooftop"

"Bridget Loves Bernie"

"Family"
