I loved that show,its where kevin pollack and jan hooks got their breaks. Hooks was on snl the following year.

Wow, somebody else who remembers it

I think the Ramones were guests on one episode (if i'm remembering correctly)

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.

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

Ogon Bat was super-insanely popular almost everywhere.... but it was never shown in N. America.

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

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

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.

This is an easy one for me.

Ogon Bat (Fantasmagórico in Latin America).



ƌgon Bat - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

It was one of my favorite Japanese toons...wildly popular in Mexico...but I have never even remotely seen the show here in the States.

Perhaps the story about a superhero with a skull head befriending kids was a bit too creepy for American audiences back in the day...

I loved "A Man Called Sloane". Watched it religiously when it was on, don't remember a thing about it except Robert Conrad and his sidekick Torque with the robot arm and different finger attachments.

Its funny to watch it now and see Torque go under cover, nobody seems to notice the plumber is a giant with a robot hand.

I think we had a thread here a few years back where it was revealed that there were actually Megos in a few episodes because the secret headquarters was disguised as/underneath a toy store.

I've never been able to make anything out but i want to.

There were a few shows from early Fox that I'd like to see again. I liked 'Pig Sty' and nobody has ever heard of that either.

UPN show from 95, it mirrored my life at the time very well.

I remember a show called "Stingray" about a guy in a black corvette who helped people in return for a favor. It was a good show that no one else seems to remember.

[spamn]

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.

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.

I remember it, but not the title. Pretty sure it was a failed pilot aired as a movie or event. There was only ever the one episode.

>I know there were two pilots for a show called "Mr. and Mrs. Dracula" that aired in 1980

Those COULD be it.... The only things I remember from it are a shot from the opening/buffer of the address plate with a branch blowing over it; and that I thought it was really funny.

>The correct title is actually "Woops!"

Holey Smokes! There it is! I don't remember more than one episdoe, and I remember it from a lot earlier.... but that's it!
