- Canceled Too Soon: The Home Game - Trump Card (1990-1991)
The year was 1990, and Donald Trump got himself a game show by taking the British series BOB'S FULL HOUSE, filming it at Trump Castle, and changing the name to TRUMP CARD. It only lasted one season, but was it any good? And if not, was it as embarrassing as THE 100 LIVES OF BLACK JACK SAVAGE?
Welcome to CANCELED TOO SOON: THE HOME GAME, a pilot episode for a brand new podcast about defunct tv game shows! We're debuting pilot episodes for bonus shows throughout the month of April. Everyone will get to hear the pilots, but at the end of the month, only our Patreon subscribers get to vote on which podcast will become a Patreon-exclusive series!

46 min - Canceled Too Soon #93 - Alexander the Great (1963/1968)
What do you get when you mix William Shatner from STAR TREK, Adam West from BATMAN, John Cassavetes from THE DIRTY DOZEN and Joseph Cotten from CITIZEN KANE? You get a beefcake sword-and-sandal television series about ALEXANDER THE GREAT, and it only lasted one freakin' episode.
ALEXANDER THE GREAT had one of the most bizarre casts of any TV series, ever, but was it really... CANCELED TOO SOON? Film critics William Bibbiani and Witney Seibold take you through the history of the sword-and-sandal genre, place this weird failed pilot in the context of the cast's lengthy and storied careers, and imagine the alternate reality in which ALEXANDER THE GREAT was a hit series, and STAR TREK and BATMAN - which premiered three years later - had to hire different leading men.

1 hr 10 min - Canceled Too Soon #92 - Almost Human (2013-2014)
Our COPS WITH ROBOT PARTNERS MONTH is coming to an end, but we've saved the best for last. ALMOST HUMAN stars Karl Urban (STAR TREK) as a human cop who isn't in touch with his emotions, and Michael Ealy (THINK LIKE A MAN) as his robot partner, who has more emotions than he can handle. Together they solve crimes in Los Angeles in 2048!
ALMOST HUMAN is one of our most requested episodes, but was it really... CANCELED TOO SOON? Film critics William Bibbiani and Witney Seibold take out their diagnostic equipment and run a scan on this sci-fi cult favorite, to talk about the episodes that were amazing, the episodes that sucked, what they think about the show's lingering mysteries, why Michael Ealy is a national treasure and why the episode where he fights Gina Carano is a classic!

1 hr 33 min - Canceled Too Soon #90 - Condor (1986)
If you love Ray Wise on TWIN PEAKS, if you love cop shows, and if you love robots, then this is the series for you! It's COPS WITH ROBOT PARTNERS MONTH on CANCELED TOO SOON, and this week we're reviewing CONDOR, a failed pilot for a futuristic series about a sexist jerk and the female robot partner who's obviously too good for him.
CONDOR predicted online credit card transactions, but it couldn't predict its own, almost immediate cancelation. But was it... CANCELED TOO SOON? Film critics William Bibbiani and Witney Seibold are here to find out, by analyzing every futuristic prognostication, every unenlightened line of dialogue, and every dune buggy chase through the Los Angeles River!

1 hr 25 min - Canceled Too Soon #89 - Future Cop (1976-1978)
It's COPS WITH ROBOT PARTNERS month on CANCELED TOO SOON, and we're starting with a doozy. Oscar-winner Ernest Borgnine stars in FUTURE COP as a shabby beat cop whose new partner is a powerful android who can solve any crime, but doesn't understand the inner workings of the human soul.
In FUTURE COP, Ernest Borgnine and a robot cancel criminals' plans to commit murder, steal cars and rig boxing matches. But was this show... CANCELED TOO SOON? Film critics William Bibbiani delve into every episode of FUTURE COP to find out what works, what's broken, and why the show was successfully sued by sci-fi legends Harlan Ellison and Ben Bova for plagiarism.
