    Fun fact about some of these shows getting silently canceled during the "baseball finals" is that the 2006 World Series (hosted by Fox) is also one of the lowest-rated World Series since baseball came to television (because literally no one cared about the 2 teams outside of the 2 cities they played for).
    That's some pretty delicious cosmic irony right there.

    Yay, I'm glad you've gone back to this! I have a weird fondness for failed sitcoms, there's almost something liminal about these brief glimpses into an unrealized world.

      I plan to make similar videos about Freaks and Geeks, because that is a well-regarded cult classic that tried and failed to be a "dramedy" and Imaginary Mary because that is a live-action-CG animated hybrid that websites for watching cartoons are still willing to preserve even though most of it is live-action, like Mary Poppins, the Supernatural episode Scoobynatural, Christoper Robin, Mary Poppins Returns, and The Fairly OddParents: Fairly Odder.

      I do, too, considering how some of the access ones are now tainted by sleaze and scandal, and sometimes it is fun to wonder what could’ve been if certain failed concepts had been done right. It’s also interesting to consider that some flops flopping pave the way for future successes.

    I barely payed attention to Fox's 2006 season because I thought that 'American Idol' had such A firm grip on the network that no scripted show would stand A chance against it. So for me, there was no hope for Fox in my eyes. It was no longer the network known for 'Married With Children', The Simpsons', and 'In Living Color' anymore, but where shows get crushed by 'American Idol', or 'Kitchen Nightmares'. So I moved onto cable, and streaming, but even that wouldn't last long.

    • @KawikaProductions
      @KawikaProductions Год назад +4

      It’s funny how you mentioned American Idol. While editing the video, I found an AD that combined ‘Til Death with American Idol, as ‘Til Death’s Season 1 Finale aired just before. It’s at 17:39 of this video.

      I wasn't watching Fox in 2006. American Idol turned me off to Fox. That & how crappy the Simpsons had gotten. So all these failed shows I don't remember, but I am somewhat familiar with Til Death, only cause I vaguely remember seeing ads for it, & it was being shown in reruns, for years afterwards.

    I remember Justice. I actually liked it. I honestly only remember watching two or three episodes, and it was gone. It may have been a law and order "inspired" show but I really was into crime and courtroom dramas, still am. Since I was kind of young, I just thought I missed all of the season and not that it was moved to another time slot.

      I loved it. Found the show on RUclips and rewatched it. I love the premise. Start with the defendant being arrested and lawyers starting the spin. Going through building the defense, trial, then verdict. Then you get what actually happened. You get to be jury member and find out if your verdict was the right choice.

  • @CJBStudios

    Wait a minute, in episode 3 of the Extra-Cast, you said this to Billy when talking about _The Winner_ :
    “If you put on ‘From the creator of _Family Guy_ ,’ it’d be a lie because Ricky Blitt was the number 1 dude.”
    So does that mean Ricky actually created the show? Because Billy said he came up with the concept and Seth McFarlane was an afterthought.

    I bet there are ABC pilot demo VHS/DVDs somewhere out there from 2001, since I have an on-off interest towards the failed pilot of an American version of a British miniseries called "Metropolis", which tells the story of the lives of a group of friends after graduating from college. One of the reasons why is because Michael E. Rodgers, the actor of C. Junior in the children's film "Thomas and the Magic Railroad", played Nate, a stalker-with-a-crush type of character who loves one of the protagonists, and I did end up finding a full script (but I forgot where I found it), but very little info and no footage was found, and it was confused with an anime film with the same name.

    Justice was great. Love the premise. Plus it had some great moments.
    One involved a tween girl whose mom died on a rollercoaster with her. The girl is set to testify. The Victor Garber lawyer tells he not to cry. If she cries they will lose. She is questioned and ends up breaking down. Opposing lawyer sees Garber looking smug and accuses the girl of faking the tears. Girl responds telling him her lawyer said not to. Death glares at opposing lawyer.😂

    Wow I remember watching The Winner when it aired on Sunday and watching Til Death on Sundays as a kid. In fact Til Death got the same issue as The Winner but worse they would air three episodes in the night then on Thursday when Family Guy would sometimes get a new episode they would put a Til Death episode there. The syndication on my end in the US is even funnier my CW aired the show in the afternoon for a year but once they got a different show they dropped it off their network and it went to My Network TV and if you know how messy that network is it makes it's fate the funniest.

    The only show from this line up that I remember watching was The Winner. I was such a huge Family Guy Fan in 2006, so anything with Seth MacFarlane had my interest. And I feel like you downplayed Fox's Sunday night block. Fox famously had shows like The Simpsons and X- Files in their Sunday night spot for years. Animation Domination became a big programing block for them sometime after, so I really don't think Sunday night on Fox is as big of a Death slot as it might have been on other networks. The happy ending for the Winner is that Rob Corddry went on to create Children's Hospital, which also starred himself, along with Erinn Hayes, who was also on The Winner.
