Critically Acclaimed Network episodes
- Canceled Too Soon #189 | Space Force (1978)
The late, great comedian Fred Willard co-stars in the new Netflix comedy series SPACE FORCE, but did you know he also starred in ANOTHER television series with the exact same name? It's called SPACE FORCE, it came out in 1978, and it's basically THE PHIL SILVERS SHOW (a.k.a. SGT. BILKO) in space!
Is that a bad idea? Or was SPACE FORCE... Canceled Too Soon? Critics William Bibbiani and Witney Seibold take you rocketing through space - and history - to explore a failed TV pilot that riffs on STAR TREK and beyond!

53 min - Canceled Too Soon #188 | Nancy Drew (1995)
You've probably read her books, seen her 1970s tv series, and binged her new CW series, but do you recall the most 1990s NANCY DREW of all?
And was it... CANCELED TOO SOON?
William Bibbiani and Witney Seibold solve that mystery, and ponder the depressing head canon of Scott Speedman, in an all-new episode dedicate to the history of NANCY DREW, and a syndicated series most people never heard of, and which might have been really good? Or, you know, it might not.

1 hr 45 min - Star Wars: Episode Zero - Silent Running!

1 hr 3 min - Canceled Too Soon #187 | The Orson Welles Show (1979)
Orson Welles may be best known for directing classic films like CITIZEN KANE, TOUCH OF EVIL and CHIMES AT MIDNIGHT, but he also had his own talk show! For one episode! That never got picked up by a network!
THE ORSON WELLES SHOW featured special guests Burt Reynolds, Angie Dickinson, and The Muppets, along with their voice Jim Henson and Frank Oz! It sounds like an amazing show, so could it be that it was... CANCELED TOO SOON?
