Do you remember watching any of these?

Malibu Shores is peak 90s. Its also hilarious how Keri Russel went from the hot popular girl to just a few years later staring in "Felicity" as the 'awkward/shy nerdy girl' that no guy noticed until college. Hollywood could be hilarious that way.

I recognize the title "Swift Justice" because I saw a standup comedian on comedy central named D.C. Benny who is also an actor and had a bit about getting cast as an extra for the pilot for "Swift Justice" where he played a thug who's only line was "I cut you good!" and he was so proud about having his first acting role he sat his whole family down to watch it only to not see himself in the episode and when he wondered why one of his family members said "They cut you good!"🗡🤣

As an international viewer, we never got to see these failed tv shows, so I am grateful this channel shows us what we missed out on. lol

I watched Strange Luck, Aliens in the Family, Nowhere Man, Minor Adjustments, Malibu Shires, Dana Carvey Show, Buddies, and Lazarus Man…I had no life back then as a 13-year-old

The Dana Carvey Show was soooooo incredibly underrated and unappreciated.

This channel deserves many more subscribers.

Remember In living Color that's was my favorite show ❤😊

I was ticked not learning why they had to erase "Nowhere Man" from his world's records.

Nowhere Man was excellent! I remember Strange Luck to. Both were good.

We still got Kerri Russell from Malibu shore's I take that a a plus

I watched Nowhere Man at the time and remembering being angry it on;y lasted one season. Last year, I watched it again. It mostly holds up, but the finale is very frustrating.

I remember most of these, but the only one's I watched on a regular basis were Minor Adjustments, Malibu Shores and Aliens in the Family. Malibu Shores was my favorite show in 1996.

Back in 1996, I was 10. I don't remember aliens in the family, not at all 😂

Ah yes, I remember Malibu Shores. As a teen in the 90s, I tried every Aaron Spelling/Fox prime time show as well as any WB prime time show. I didn't think Malibu Shores would be renewed, but it's a good thing since many cast members went on to better things.

Wow, memory unlocked! I watched Aliens in the Family, but then quickly forgot about it. 😆

I just got Nowhere Man on DVD! I was a little too young for it when it first aired but I remember loving it.

A+ video! LOVE IT! The shows look awesome!

love these videos!

You should consider featuring Working (‘97-99) and Men Behaving Badly (‘96-97). Both had two seasons but I loved them!

Chappelle wrote for Dana Carvey too.

The Dana Carvey Show was so incredibly ahead of its time. Only 7 episodes is downright criminal.

11:49 Brandy is one of my favorite music artists.

Never heard of "Swift Justice," but its opening title sequence looks & sounds like a discount version of "Homicide: Life on the Street"

Just watched another video about forgotten shows from the 90's that feature Aliens in the Family. Weird.

Everytime I see one of these videos uploaded I click as fast as I can!

The list of shows canceled with Essence Atkins in the cast must be endless.

I only vaguely remember hearing about the Dana Carvey show at the time. And that one had a huge marketing campaign. None of the rest are familiar. The Dana Carvey show was such a huge failure it got a documentary in 2017,

Well, on my own, I would have never heard of any of these. However, from GoodBadFlicks I've heard of Aliens in the Family, and Strange Luck, and from Atomic Abe I've heard of Buddies. Didn't have any luck in finding Larazus Man anywhere, and Minor Adjustments only found 3 episodes, and Dana Carvery Show is missing 2 of the 7, but found the rest on KZfaq, so there we go. Thank you for this, did enjoy it.

Always surprised when I see shows I never heard of and you almost got me hear, except I vaguely remember the Dana Carvey show!😂

Nowhere man Minor Adjustments & Lazarus man had potential but they were unfortunately short lived. Aliens in the family was DEFINITELY a weird show no wonder it lasted only 2 episodes

I remember watching Bone Chillers when I was 12 and it should never been canceled in the first place. 😀👍

I remember the old TV series, Seinfeld, what a hit wonder. Also, saved by the bell and spiderman series. Mighty morphin power rangers boy meets world. Hope TV legends continue

Nowhere Man!! I'll forever be in mourning. 😭

Damn, I was 13 at the time and didn’t know any of these shows existed

D.B sweeney'ed so that Paul could Rudd. Also, who knew Carpenter and Russell together could fail?

Dick wolf did few good stuff my favorite New York Undercover ❤ the music in that show 😊😊😊😊😊 wow.

A very good video.

Love remembering old shows 😊

The network did Robert Urich dirty.

Ever see California Dreams? Do a review on that.

I've seen Malibu Shores, which was rather horrible (and that's coming from someone who likes 90210 and loves Keri Russell), and Swift Justice which was absolutely excellent!!!

I remember Malibu Shores and loved Keri Russell's hair. I also heard of the Dana Carvey song but never watched it.

LOVED Nowhere Man!!!!!! And yes, I did wade my way through the Star Trek: Voyager episodes just to get to the Nowhere Man episode, because it was SO MUCH BETTER!!!!

20:18 This is the only show I remember from this list.

Bone Chillers was one show to remember especially the “Teacher Creature “ episode which after I first saw it back in the day did give me a little fright.

I think the one with the aliens could’ve been better than it was if it was handled properly

4:23 - Shaza Zulu!!!!!!!!!!! I totally remember him from "A Different World!"

There was a screen capture of “Aliens in the family” that you showed, in which I recognized a very young Hayden Patteniere.

I had no idea Dana Carvey had a show and that Louis CK wrote for it. It actually looks....well pretty good also

I was born in 87 and I don't remember any of these.

Love Different World ❤ my favorite espsiode was a few of them..most favorite one was the 2pac espsiode when he made a small appearance..❤. I love 2pac ❤

As a huge Wayne's World fan, I watched every episode of The Dana Carvey show. The bit that has stuck with me for whatever reason was one with Colbert and Carrell as waiters with a stomach bug trying to read the specials without getting sick. It's worth looking up.

Apart from Nowhere Man and Buddies, which I have never seen, I have never heard of the rest of these, so it was good to find out about them.

I think I remember commercials for Lazerous man on TNT... might have seen the pilot....

Two great shows from 1996 that you didn't mention: Profit and EZ Streets.

I loved Strange Luck and was upset that it never returned. I kept waiting for a new season that just never happened.

❤ yes I remember a couple of those shows

There was a 90's show that wasn't on very long called "Life's Work". I really liked it and was sad when it was cancelled.

I remember watching Aliens In The Family. Wasn't the nanny being held hostage by the baby alien?

Steve Carrell and Stephen Colbert were both later on Comedy Central Daily Show That's what helped both go on to greater success

A few names like Urich pronounced wrong but good video over all.

I loved Nowhere Man! In fact, I loved it so much, a few years ago I made an entire 21-episode podcast about it, called Nowhere Men: The Nowhere Man Project. Bruce Greenwood is the greatest.

I feel like Dick Wolf has been making the same show for 30 years.

I remember liking Aliens in the Family, but even at the age of nine I could tell it would get canceled 😂

Aaron Spelling shows were the best Beverly Hills 90210, Melrose Place, Models Inc, Malibu Shores, Pacific Palisades, Robin Hood. Aaron Spelling, Jeff Franklin, Miller Boyette… I GREW up on their shows… BE NICE!👊🏼 Love your reviews… think you could pick one them.. like Miller-Boyette & go through the history of them and review their shows… 😜

The female teacher in "Malibu Shores" at 13:17 looks familiar and it's bugging me. That database online isn't giving a name I recognize (s a teacher) and the Goos is not helping.

I actually kind of like Bone Chillers.

The Dana Carvey show is the only one here I watched. It had the Wizard of Oz cast meeting some guy with no butt crack and lampooned a real-life auction of JFK memorabilia by having the auctioneer ridicule the buyers.

I never even heard of bone chillers but I do remember aliens in the family

Baby joker was in Malibu shores Aztec warrior

Can you do a video about backdoor pilots? Like pilots that were aired as episodes of more popular shows to see if they would take off? One example I can think of is the one they did on The Nanny, which was about people working at a nail salon.

I liked Malibu Shores. Not gonna lie.

remember most of these but dont think i actually finished wtching any of them. upside this list id remind me of one i have to find, its intro song was lion sleeps tonite and was about a guy that could talk to animals, Doolittle style with jikinks.

1. In the first season or two of UPN, your show had to be doing almost negative ratings to get cancelled, so it is amazing they even got complaint letters. 2. I was 15 in 1995. I watched the first episode of Nowhere Man. But even when I saw the trailer, I said: 'He can't find evidence he's Thomas Veil, because he's not'. Then I gave up. My friends loved the show. He stuck around until the season finale... which turned out to be the series finale. Then he said: 'How the fuck did you see that coming just a two minute commercial.' I said: 'His name means He who doubts cover'. And that's when I knew how bad the show must have been.

I don't remember even one of these shows

That's not "bare bones CGI," Hoss. Those would be puppets (Aliens in the Family)

Shortly after Nowhere Man was canceled, they replaced it with the equally short lived but very cool series called 7 Days, in which an excon is recruited into a secret government program aimed at time traveling, in order to prevent various disasters from taking place

Oh man. I remember Nowhere Man and Strange Luck. I watched them mostly because they were on before/after Voyager and the XFiles. Nowhere Man seemed like a ripoff of that one Sandra Bullock movie (The net?) even at the time but it was a lot of fun. The last episode they threw in a bunch of cliffhangers that were, even to teenage me, ridiculous. For strange luck... I remember LOVING it and I rewatched a few episodes on youtube last year. IMHO it has not stood the test of time. A perfect time capsule of what would have been considered cool in 1996 :)

I loved Strange Luck, it's sitting on a 100% on Rotten Tomatoes

I remember when those Buddies DVDs first came out, they were an exclusive to Best Buy. This was the time the Chapelle Show was the hottest thing in the world, and Best Buy went out of their way to market them as if they were the Chappelle Show and not some lame sitcom. They even released a circular (remember those) touting the exclusive Friday launch of the DVD set on the front page, again going out of their way to make it seem like it was a Chapelle Show DVD set.

Kindred: The Embraced was a vampire show that came on Fox in 96. But I think it had 2 seasons so it wasn't a complete failure.

I loved the Dana Carvey Show. It still sticks in my head. You may have noticed Mountain Dew in the title. A few weeks had sponsors such as MD, Mug Root Beer, and Taco Bell that played into some skits.

Dana Carvey and Buddies are the only ones I remember

Seeing the dad from Raven with hair is kind of weird also brotherly love great show

I forgot about Strange Luck! I watched it because it came on before The X-Files. Kinda wish Fox had kept it around and done some crossovers.

I love goosebumps and are you afraid of the dark ❤❤❤😊

Oh I loved Nowhere Man and right after Voyager! 15 y.o. Me had a wonderful 2 hours of UPN viewing 😂

It’s Urich. Not Ulrich.

i remember minor adjustments. he basically would do his standup routine in the middle of the show.

Strange Luck was an awesome show. It just had the bad luck (pun intended) of being on Friday Nights on FOX, a notorious ratings graveyard.

Nowhere man would be perfect for a reboot or continuation in today's conspiracy theory obsessed world.

So weird that Minor Adjustments randomly moved to UPN so fast from NBC mid-season. I mean I know sometimes TV shows change networks the following season or a lower performing show will move to lesser watched networks owned by same company (ie Quarter-life form NBC to Bravo) but this is one instance where it goes from one network to another competing network mid-season. Is there any other situations like that?

It's crazy how they would cancel number nine for that reason, but yet nowadays all debauchery and blasphemy is allowed anywhere especially on "kid" networks

🤯 Dave Chappelle and Jim Bruer had bit parts on Home Improvement and got their own show(well Jim Bruer got the shaft which is probably why it flopped, they killed the chemistry between the main characters.)

Aliens in the Family always stuck with me because of how bad it was. I remember watching its premiere and never returning. Strange Luck was a great show though. I was always annoyed that it and Brimstone got canceled before they had a chance to grow.

Nowhere Man was a really good show. The last three episodes are dynamite. The DVD is also great, with a huge amount of extras and commentaries. It seems like there was a lot of behind-the-scenes drama. The creator, Lawrence Herzog, found himself getting pushed out as the season went on and they couldn't agree on a direction for a second season.

Nowhere Man is something I would be interested in now, but in 96, I was fresh out of HS and not interested in that type of content. *sigh*

For me I didn't watch those shows with the exception of Strange Luck. I remember it coming on before the X files. It was a good show I really liked it.

I actually loved "The Dana Carvey Show."
