I remember when The Survivors was on; can’t say I ever watched it though. (But you just made me wish I had. 
)
Hasn’t been mentioned yet, I think.
Also:
Preach it!
I didn’t know until now it was just a NY area show — interesting.
And also all kinds of quirky little shorts to fill the time after a movie ended before the top of the hour. Few of these were strictly original content, but I think most got their only airing on HBO.
I swear I saw a version of H G Wells’ “Tell-Tale Heart,” for example, that isn’t any of the versions I can find on the interwebs now.
Perhaps because The Tell-Tale Heart was a story by Edgar Allan Poe?
Ha! Yes. No, I was searching for it under “Poe.” (I just got mixed up now, because I recently rewatched the 1979 film “Time After Time,” with Malcolm McDowell as Wells, and I recall the main character in the Tell-Tale Heart short looked like that actor/character).
The one with Thurber dogs in it? I recall that one from back when I was a kid.
My World … and Welcome to It. Already mentioned above.
Yes, I know that; I was responding to the person who first mentioned the show.
Never mind. 
Dead Like Me was a favourite of mine. I’ve got it all on DVD, and enjoy watching the whole series from time to time.
It was quirky, funny (all the the “Wile E. Coyote” means of death–yes, it turns out that you can really be crushed by a falling piano in real life), tragic, and dramatic, all at the same time. There was great character development through the series also. I was sad to see it end.
We started watching Dead Like Me on cable, but halfway through the first season, I found the DVDs for cheap. Turns out that we’d been watching a bowdlerized version.
For TV shows that nobody remembers, did anyone watch Profit in the mid-90s? I was really getting into it when it got canceled.
It only lasted one season in 2012, but I liked The Finder, a spin-off/back door pilot from Bones.
Oh no, it wasn’t just NY. I grew up in Chicago and watched it on Sundays before Sunday school.
There was a show, way back when I was a shorty, that made an impression on me but it seems that no other person on Earth ever saw an episode. It was called Maya, and it had nothing to do with Indigenous Mexicans–in fact it took place in modern day India, and Maya was the name of the elephant co-star. The two human co-stars were young teenagers, one American and one Indian, who were searching for the Yank kid’s Great White Hunter father, who was missing and presumed dead by tiger (the kids did not believe he was); the Indian kid was a mahout, and Maya was his trusty pachyderm, and the three of them roamed around the jungle parts of India looking for Bwana Pops. This was around the time that Daktari and the Ron Ely Tarzan were big hits, so jungle adventures were hot that season–the one season that Maya was broadcast. As a kid who loved exotic animals and adventure stories, the show pleased me–lots of footage of crocs, tigers, cobras, and rhesus monkeys, as I recall–and I was sorry to see it go. We never did find out what happened to the missing tiger-hunter-dude.
It starred Jay North, formerly of Dennis The Menace. I loved that show.
Came back into this topic after trying to remember THIS show. Finally remembered the name and of course it has been mentioned. The crazy thing is the show was relatively popular, had a six season run and wasn’t that old compared to some of the entries in this thread. It just wasn’t that memorable.
Hack. David Morse was a disgraced ex-cop driving a Boston cab. There was an excellent episode where he spent the whole time trying to return a fare’s wallet.
I have two that starred later big stars. A few of you may remember Jason Bateman in It’s Your Move, especially the Dregs of Society two-parter. But how many of you watched Jim Carrey as a cartoonist in The Duck Factory?
Not me but I’ll call your The Duck Factory and raise you a Tom Hanks in Bosom Buddies. No, maybe Ted Knight in Too Close For Comfort to keep with the cartoonist and comedic actor theme.
Gotta admit teen hormones were at play for the latter show and what can I say, Deborah Van Valkenburgh. Looked her up on wikipedia and she still has it.
Now, in Mandela Effect news I have seen the warriors several times and I thought Jamie Gertz played Mercy but when I really think about it, it clearly wasn’t. Thanks for fighting ignorance wikipedia.
Rereading your post Too Close For Comfort fails as Knight was already as big a star as he’d get.
So Bosom Buddies it is then. Hanks did marginally improve his star status in his later career.
