  • Ep. 49 - Wonder Woman (1967), Wonder Woman (1974) and Wonder Woman (2011)

    She's one of the most popular, iconic and inspirational superheroes ever created, but even though Wonder Woman has a new blockbuster movie and had a hit tv series in the 1970s, she's also had some REALLY bad luck on television. Over the course of nearly 50 years there have been not one, not two, but THREE failed pilots for a live-action WONDER WOMAN series: including a wacky sitcom, a superspy adventure (without superpowers) and a David E. Kelley's recent, notorious misfire starring Adrianne Palicki (AGENTS OF S.H.I.E.L.D.).

    But were all these WONDER WOMAN pilots really that bad, or were they... CANCELED TOO SOON? Film critics William Bibbiani and Witney Seibold are joined by Legion of Leia founder Jenna Busch as they guide you through the history of the superhero, why each of these WONDER WOMAN pilots catastrophically misunderstood the character, and finally what they all thought of the brand new WONDER WOMAN movie!

  • Canceled Too Soon #48 - TerrorVision (198X)

    The history of television is full of horror anthology shows like THE TWILIGHT ZONE, TALES FROM THE CRYPT and THE OUTER LIMITS, but we've never seen anything quite like TERRORVISION. This low-low-low budget horror series about monsters, vampires and murders aired on the Lifetime network in the 1980s, and it's either absolutely terrifying or totally, utterly laughable.

    But was TERRORVISION, the show that plays like 1980s porn directors were adapting half-baked campfire stories... CANCELED TOO SOON? Film critics William Bibbiani and Witney Seibold are here to put more thought into this weird series than anyone else ever has, and reveal its existence to a world that has for decades lived in blissful ignorance of TERRORVISION's existence. How bad could it have possibly been? Pretty darn bad...

  • Canceled Too Soon #47 - Journeyman (2007)

    A newspaper reporter with a suspiciously expensive house goes back in time to save lives, endanger his marriage and completely ignore his day job in JOURNEYMAN, a sci-fi series starring Kevin McKidd (STAR WARS REBELS), Gretchen Egolf (ROSWELL), Moon Bloodgood (FALLING SKIES) and Reed Diamond (DESIGNATED SURVIVOR), which aired for just 13 episodes in 2007.

    Fans tried to save JOURNEYMAN by sending Rice-a-Roni to the network. It didn't work, but it does make you wonder... was this show CANCELED TOO SOON? Film critics William Bibbiani and Witney Seibold are joined by Miss Movies herself, Brianne Chandler, to review this cult favorite series and figure out what went wrong, what went right, and where the series might have gone if it had lasted 100 episodes.

  • Canceled Too Soon #46 - L.A. Confidential (2003)

    Everybody knows L.A. CONFIDENTIAL is one of the best movies of the 1990s, and maybe even one of the best movies ever made. But not everybody remembers that just a few years after James Ellroy's classic novel became a classic movie, it almost became a television series, written by Walon Green (THE WILD BUNCH) and starring Kiefer Sutherland (24), Anna Gunn (BREAKING BAD), Eric Roberts (A TALKING CAT?!) and Pruitt Taylor Vince (DEADWOOD).

    The L.A. CONFIDENTIAL television series never made it past the pilot episode, but did it really deserve to get abandoned, or was it... CANCELED TOO SOON? Film critics William Bibbiani and Witney Seibold take a look back at one of the most ambitious pilots they've ever encountered, revisit the classic movie, analyze the differences between the film and the pilot and the book, and much, much more!

  • Canceled Too Soon #45 - My Mother the Car (1965-1966)

    The time has finally come to review one of the most notorious television series in history: MY MOTHER THE CAR, a 1960s sitcom with the stupidest premise imaginable, and a Freudian nightmare that could only happen in the deepest, darkest subconscious of the typical suburban male. Yes, Jerry Van Dyke's mother is a car... and she will spank him.

    It's been called the worst tv show in history, but is it possible that MY MOTHER THE CAR was... CANCELED TOO SOON? Join film critics William Bibbiani and Witney Seibold - and special guest Alonso Duralde (Linoleum Knife) - as they drink deeply of all 30 ill-conceived episodes of MY MOTHER THE CAR, the series they call "The HEAVEN'S GATE of Television."

    How bad could it possibly be? Guess what: it's worse.
