Canceled Too Soon #158 - The Weird Al Show (1997)


Listen Later

"Weird" Al Yankovic is one of the most popular comedy and music superstars in the world, but even he couldn't keep a kids show on the air on CBS! Yankovic starred in THE WEIRD AL SHOW as an insecure goofball living in a cave, and despite cameo appearances by Hanson, Barenaked Ladies, Patton Oswalt, John Tesh, Alex Trebek and Randy Savage, it only lasted one season.

Was THE WEIRD ALL SHOW... canceled too soon?! Film critics William Bibbiani and Witney Seibold dig into their deep, lifelong love for "Weird" Al Yankovic and the many, many reasons why this show was destined to be short-lived, for better AND worse!
