    was just about to say, that was called woops.

    I used to watch what they called "garbage dump theatre" in the summer, all the failed pilots. I remember "the paul williams show" pilot and one that centered around a man who built androids, clearly inspired by Star Wars.

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

    I can't find anything on "1313 Mockingbird Lane" that doesn't reference "The Munsters". I know there were two pilots for a show called "Mr. and Mrs. Dracula" that aired in 1980:

    -"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.

    The correct title is actually "Woops!":

    It aired from September to December 1992.

    Yeah! That's the best way to explain it! I don't remember much of it.... mostly the preview.

    I remember the 'Ooops' show, on Fox Network when it was just starting out in '92. The girls were hot.., it was a post-apocalyptic 'Gilligan's Island'.

    started a topic TV shows nobody else remembers

    TV shows nobody else remembers

    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.
