I'll give you my reasonings on why these tv shows, did not last past the first season. Some did, but didn't last the second.
Number one:
Joanie loves Chachi- Do you love Happy days? Do you love it when a movie called Dodgeball mocks this one. Joanie and Chachi star the late Erin Moran and Scott Baiao. Only lasting two seasons, this was not one worth the watch. Not many people even liked it, not fans of Happy Days. It was not worth the watch for so many reasons. Scott Baiao couldn't stand it and neither could us. Thumbs down.
Number two:
Herman's Head- Ever wanted to have small people give small decisions inside a man's head? Wanted that at all? This man, named Herman of course, has four little jiminy crickets inside his head that control his emotions. I've only seen one or two episodes and deemed it unfunny. I didn't care for it, it seemed too predictable on what Herman's situation would be, and the actor that played Herman, William Ragsdale, thank god he's doing better things, and is still acting. Only lasting 72 episodes, failure!
Number three:
Life with Lucy- (Sorry my GIF is from an 'I love Lucy' show) I have never seen a needed comedy to go so bad. I loved 'I love Lucy' and this, doesn't seem like the Lucy I fell in love with. Only having 13 episodes, it was the lowest rated Lucille Bale Comedy. She died a couple of months after Life with Lucy was cut. I don't think this was the way Lucy wanted to go, but it seemed it happened so fast, I knew it would be a failure. Stick to the classic Lucy. That is funny.
Number four:
{NO PICRUE} Baby Bob- OMG!!! I heard of this show. It was as if talking babies were the new norm. Voiced by Kevin Hudson Campbell, the baby is supposed to communicate with the parents. I'd rather talk to Stewie from family guy than this brat. Only lasting a season or two, the network thought to pull the plug on the baby and the actors of the show. Because of it, those talking babies from the super bowl commercial became famous. OMG indeed.
Number five:
{NO PICTURE} Homeboys in Outer space- Drenched in the 90's, two men want to be Han Solos, ok you can get the picture how this is stupid. I don't know who thought of this or why, but thank you god to whoever pulled the plug on this stinker. Only lasting 21 episodes you can see why this short lived sitcom remains in the garbage heap. It's stunk.
Number six:
{NO PICTURE} Heil Honey, I'm Home- Yes this was a show, and it was about Hitler in a comedy routine. Back in 1990, some psychopath decided to make Hitler a comedy star with this. The plot of the show was about a prime minister visiting Hitler and his wife at their house, and they have to do everything to make the dinner special. What numb nut thought this was a brilliant idea??? Thank god they pulled the plug after the second episode.
Number seven:
Manimal- It's as if they wanted to destroy someone's career by turning the main character into the human fly. Jeff Goldblum can get away with it, but this, man morphing into any animal?? I don't see that making it a good tv series. Only lasting eight episodes in 1983, this show wasn't worth the watch. I'd rather morph into an interesting animal than see this.
Number eight:
Father of the Pride- If you put the DreamWorks movie, Madagascar; have John Goodman voice the lead and having nothing to do with Madagascar??? I can tell they just wanted more money. This show only lasted one season. A failure from the beginning. I could feel the sadness in the room when someone mentions Siegfried and Roy. I'd rather see 'Shrek the Halls' over this any day or even Nickelodeon's Penguins of Madagascar. At least that show lasted THREE seasons. Thumbs down.
before I mention the worst show that only lasted one to maybe a few episodes, here are some honories,
Small Wonder- a story about a man that creates a girl robot as her daughter. Canned laughter everywhere as well as, not worth it. I can feel the actress that played the girl robot crying over doing the roll.
Saved by the bell: THE NEW CLASS- Saved by the bell was actually not a bad show, wasn't a fan though, but would gladly see any of the old episodes over this. It makes all the actors from Saved by the bell, sad over being in this train wreck. (music to commercial)
Rob- Rob Schneider can be a disease to some people, like Adam Sandler's crappy movies. He also wanted to have a show based on his life, comedy and stupid. Didn't last after ONE SEASON. Sorry Rob, not for you.
Unhappily ever after- It's the 2000's version of 'Married with Children' Although, unlike that, this is a new low. NOT FUNNY! Not worth it and didn't last.
Dads- Back in the mid 2000's, there was a show called Mom and Dads. Different premise and were supposed to be funny... While mom succeeded Dads, failed to deliver. Was cancelled after the first season.
That 80's show- Another wannabe hit. Tried to be the other version of that 70's show, However nobody found it funny. Sadly the actors didn't succeed in making any good 80s references as well as being dry on the humor. Was benched.
OK THE WORST OF THE WORST.
Every decade, either from the 70's, 80's or 90's, seemed to have hits and misses when it comes to TV. I do watch television once in a while and the history says that this is not even mentioning, THE WORST OF THEM ALL.....
CAVEMEN- this came out at the popularity of those Geico commercials featuring Cavemen. They were funny at first, but then, it started to get annoying. What was worse, some dumb ass decided to make a TV show about it. I hope he's in line for the guillotine. Nobody loved it, they thought it was a long Geico TV show. Only lasting 13 episodes (thank you god) I can tell this was a new low for TV series.
It doesn't mean all of these are bad, just weren't good ideas, and someday, there will be a memorial for all the horrible tv shows that only lasted: one to two seasons or one to two episodes. Till then, be careful of what you watch. Not every TV show will last.
