TV shows nobody else remembers

[Mikey]

Back in the early 80's there was a late night half hour sketch comedy show called Comedy Break with Mack and Jamie.

I used to HATE that show
But it seems today i'm the only person who remembers it.

>I have never even remotely seen the show here in the States.

Ogon Bat was super-insanely popular almost everywhere.... but it was never shown in N. America. (Although I've heard it was translated into English for Australia way back when.) It's an oldie: late 60's and syndicated everywhere throughout the 70's. I'm surprised it was never shown on the French channels around here. We got TONS of other old Japanese stuff that way. (It's pretty much the only reason I remember any French at all....)

....and I remember Stingray, but I think it came out during a glut of car shows, so it kinda got swept up in the flood.

Yes...Mexico...it's in North America.

Canada too...but I don't know if it was shown there.

The Munsters did a revamp in the early 90s with the surviving cast. I cant remember the name of the show

Does anyone else remember a show called "My Life and Times"?

It was about a man who was older and living in a nursing home and who would think back on different times in his life...when he got married...the stock market crash of 87....other times.

Don't remember the actor who played the man, but I remember Helen Hunt playing his wife.

Journeyman - Time Travel show kind of like Quantum Leap, but more modern and serious and without an "Al" character.

Do Over - Sitcom about a guy in his 30s who gets an electrical shock and wakes up as himself as a teenager.


Shows I liked that most people I know have never heard of, but that you guys probably all know:

Red Dwarf
The Groovie Goolies
Monster Squad
The Bugaloos
Wonderbug
Tales From The Darkside
Electro Woman and Dyna Girl

Shows I didn't like that most people don't remember:

Turbo Teen
Pac-Man

I kind of remember a very short lived 80's show that had a tractor trailer with a front like a car.

Did I dream that ?

Highwayman, love it

[The Toyroom]

As for regular tv, "A Man Called Sloane" is one of my favourite 70s shows but few remember it.

I dug AMCS too...Very briefly a Friday night show I think..I liked that Torque dude

[The Toyroom]

"The Phoenix" is another one I liked that was on very briefly and seems to have vanished from the collective consciousness of most people

[AAAAA]

So....

There are three tv shows I've never been able to find info on, and nobody else seems to have ever seen:

-one was really reminiscent of Futurama. It was about two guys who fell asleep with a hotplate running, and it created a gas that froze them for hundreds of years. They awoke in a future where a computer decided everybody's job. Their aid worker wanted to be a tapdancer. It was a comedy, late 70's. SOme folks remember it, but nobody remembered the title.

-"Ooops." A post-apocalypse comedy featuring a house where four or five survivours met; and really cheap effects. I only remember one episdoe, and a preview for the second, where a giant spider attacks. (Actually a tarantula that walks over a cheap model of the house.) Late 70's.

-"1313 Mockingbird Lane" which I don't think was a Munsters revamp, but was kinda similar. Spooky house, monster neighbors. Late 70's/early 80's.

Jon Sable Freelance was turned into a brief show called SABLE in the mid-80s.

THE IMMORTAL from the 70s with Chris George as a guy with Fountain of Youth style blood, on the run from a millionaire that wanted to drain him.

WHAT'S ALAN WATCHING? was a sketch type show, there might have been only one episode shown in the mid 80s with Corey Nemic & Eddie Murphy. the kid would turn the TV channel and they would show various skits. I think onbe was Murphy doing James Brown.

MR. TERRIFIC was a super-hero show comedy from the 60s, it aired the same time as CAPTAIN NICE.
