"Go Fish" on NBC

 

with Kieran Culkin, comedy god Will Friedle (from Boy Meets World) and Joe Flaherty (SCTV)

 

plus...that hot hot girl culkin was going after on show (drool...)

 

Anyway, 3 shows later it was gone but I thought it was great

"Cupid".

 

GREAT show that aired on ABC in the 98-99 season I believe. It starred Jeremy Piven as a man who believed he was Cupid, trapped in human form until he got 100 couples together. Paula Marshall played his therapist / friend/ eventual love interest.

 

It was a great show. Funny, smart, romantic....it had everything going for it but a timeslot. First it got put on at 10 p.m. on Saturday nights, when NO ONE is home. Then it got moved to Thursday nights against NBC's powerhouse shows. It was cancelled before the season was over with.

 

Which is a shame, because it was one of the best shows of that season and one of the best shows to come out in a long time.

Gross Point - used to love watching this show, but it was axed after a few episodes

 

Cleopatra 2525 - I was starting to get into this show, despite odd time slots, yet, apparently, they axed it.

 

M.A.N.T.I.S. - I vaguely remember this show being on FOX, if I have the right show, it blew up a robotic Urkel in one of its commercials, then promptly vanished like three episodes later.

 

The Jenny McCarthy Show - I do not think this lasted long at all.

 

Fantasy Island(the remake)

 

Down the Shore

 

Gary & Mike - I remember WWF pumping this show or something, then it just vanished.

 

The Lone Gunmen

 

Undergrads - I heard this show was cancelled, which really sucks I was starting to get into it.

 

Spy Groove

 

Honey, I Shrunk the Kids: The TV Show

Undergrads only had around 12 episodes. It's still on Teletoon but it probably got canned in the states.

 

Was anything ever explained after Gary and Mike jumped the bridge?

"Holding the Baby"...aired a couple of years ago, I watched the first episode...it was the worst thing ever (I still have nightmares)...I don't know how many more it had after that.

 

"The War Next Door"...cool show, how could something on USA get canned? It's not like their ratings are strong anyway.

 

"The Jack Of All Trades"...Bruce Campbell is the man...this show kicked ass...I hate whoever pulled the plug

 

Look Who's Talking (The Series), A League of Their Own (The Series)...gee, maybe shows based on crappy movies go on to make crappy tv

 

"Apartment 2D"...unfunny mtv show with stand up comic twins

 

The only reason to watch Cleo 2525 was for Jennifer Sky...other then that it was godawful, but man was she hot.

Cupid and Grosse Point (which actually lasted a whole season) were probably my two favorite "cancelled before their time" series of the past few years.

 

I think a lot of people didn't know what to make of GP, since on the surface, it was exactly like every other WB show. It wasn't immediately obvious that it was a satire. Maybe it would have been better off on HBO, paired up with Darren Star's other show (Sex & The City).

Hey, let's not forget the UPN magnificences that are "Homeboys in Outer Space" and "The Secret Diary of Desmond Pfeiffer".

 

Ha! I remember "Gary & Mike" commercials, but don't forget the equally-pimped "As If" and its lead-in, starring the great Will Friedle, "The Random Years".

 

I think UPN is where pilots go to die.

Hmmm.... seems Will Friedle was also in the short-lived sitcom "Go Fish" in 2001. What is it with the guy and everything NOT named "Boy Meets World"? ;)

One more for the road... one of the most famous "terrible TV shows" ever, "Pink Lady and Jeff", which is actually now on DVD. It ran a whopping five episodes in spring 1980 before being pulled.

I KNOW!

 

Doesn't anybody see the potential in this guy!

 

I loved Boy Meets World (beginning to end) and Go Fish (those 3 episodes anyway)...main reason: Will Friedle

I actually kinda like Friedle too, I thought he was great in "Boy Meets World" and even enjoyed him in the Disney TV movie "My Date with the President's Daughter", but his work in "The Random Years" was pretty bad. He was painfully overacting. I never saw "Go Fish" though... what network was it on?

"Working". Had they not changed the cast in season two and its timeslot, it had a good chance of still being on the air.

Which character was Will Friedle? All I remember, real name-wise from Boy Meets World, is Ben Savage, Danielle Tish, and Ethan Suplee.

Was Off Centre canceled? That show was so funny.

Chen (milf guy 1 from American pie) was the best character. :)
