  • Canceled Too Soon #145 - Bionic Woman (2007)

    Back in the 1970s, the world was a heck of a lot more bionic. That's why shows like THE SIX MILLION DOLLAR MAN and BIONIC WOMAN ruled the airwaves. In 2007, the producer of BATTLESTAR GALACTICA and the co-writer of ALITA: BATTLE ANGEL teamed up to reboot BIONIC WOMAN with a new cast and a grim 'n' gritty attitude!

    The BIONIC WOMAN was derailed by a writer's strike, so maybe, just maybe... it was CANCELED TOO SOON? Film critics William Bibbiani and Witney Seibold delve into what this show was, what it could have been, why it plays a lot like the prototype for the hit SUPERGIRL tv series.

  • Canceled Too Soon #144 - Probe (1988)

    A sci-fi murder mystery series from Isaac Asimov?! Why doesn't anybody ever talk about PROBE? 

    Probably because this series, starring Parker Stevenson from THE HARDY BOYS and BAYWATCH, only lasted eight short episodes before getting the ax. But until then it was a fast-pacing and quirky TV show about killer A.I. elevators, super-intelligent apes and sci-fi writers who get all their best ideas from alien balls of lightning.

    It was weird as hell and it had quite a pedigree, but was Isaac Asimov's PROBE... canceled too soon? Film critics William Bibbiani and Witney Seibold apply their not-so-scientific method to this forgotten series, and find it full of unexpected wonders!

  • Canceled Too Soon #143 - Mrs. Sundance (1974)

    When she wasn't bewitching sitcom audiences on BEWITCHED, Elizabeth Montgomery was taking over the blockbuster BUTCH CASSIDY AND THE SUNDANCE KID franchise! In the failed pilot for MRS. SUNDANCE, Montgomery plays Etta Place, the outlaw who outlived Butch and Sundance and wound up in her own exciting adventures!

    It's got a great star and it's based on a hit movie. How could MRS. SUNDANCE be anything but... CANCELED TOO SOON? Film critics William Bibbiani and Witney Seibold take you back to the early 1970s to tell you how close this pilot came to greatness!

  • Canceled Too Soon #142 - Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kids (1973)

    The smash hit western BUTCH CASSIDY AND THE SUNDANCE KID probably could have been the basis of a pretty good TV show, but that's not what we got with BUTCH CASSIDY AND THE SUNDANCE KIDS! It's a Hanna-Barbera animated TV series about a teen band that solves mysteries for a talent agent supercomputer with dog allergies.

    It's one of the most non sequitur shows in Hanna-Barbera history (and that's saying something), but was it... CANCELED TOO SOON? Film critics William Bibbiani and Witney Seibold take the plunge into BUTCH CASSIDY AND THE SUNDANCE KIDS to dissect the show's baffling formula, repetitive storylines and inexplicable laugh track in the latest episode!

  • Canceled Too Soon #141 - Dead Last (2001)

    Back in the glory days of the Dubba-Dubba-WB, a group of rock musicians found a magic amulet and won the power to talk to ghosts! And since they're selfish rock stars, they find it really annoying. It's DEAD LAST, a weird new live-action, primetime take on the old Hanna-Barbera schtick, from the writers of GROSSE POINT BLANK and HIGH FIDELITY!

    It's got the ghosts, it's got the gags, and it's got the goods, but was DEAD LAST really... CANCELED TOO SOON? Film critics William Bibbiani and Witney Seibold take their time machine back to the early 2000s to figure out why this completely forgotten supernatural series deserves to be rediscovered by fans of shows like Supernatural!

  • Canceled Too Soon #140 - RoboCop: The Series (1994)

    Paul Verhoeven's ROBOCOP defied all expectations to become one of the most celebrated, satirical, action-packed and politically damning motion pictures of the 1990s. So of course it got a live-action TV series in the 1990s, with adorable kid characters and wacky villains!

    ROBOCOP: THE SERIES only lasted one season, and has since been largely forgotten, but was it... CANCELED TOO SOON? Film critics William Bibbiani and Witney Seibold take a look at this expensive, clever superhero series that tries to turn the subversive sci-fi classic into a slightly less subversive piece of weekly entertainment!
