"Wait Till Your Father Gets Home" which was an animated sitcom that I believe was shown in prime time. It is on DVD but I swear I am the only one that remembers it. It was created by Hanna-Barbera and only ran a couple seasons. I was about 7 years old when it first aired. Haven't seen it since (I'll pick up the DVDs some day) but for some reason it has stuck with me for a long time.
Of course I could go on and on about the really bad Saturday morning shows like Electra Woman and Dyna Girl, Land of the Lost, etc.
That actually ran in afternoon reruns when I was a kid. Watched it because it was a cartoon, but was always REALLY confused by it.
"The Phoenix" is another one I liked that was on very briefly and seems to have vanished from the collective consciousness of most people
I remember The Phoenix. He actually played the video game Phoenix - a really tough Galaxians clone - in one of the episodes. The actor was one of the most prominent of Khan's entourage in Star Trek II.

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.
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.
Don C.
Thats with James blueshi and Mr. mom ,Batman, night shifts guy.
They go the great leader(looks like a jiffy pop Bag) to get asigned a job .
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.
