Subject: Short-Lived TV shows of the 70s

Written By: whistledog on 06/13/11 at 10:45 pm

'Working Stiffs' starring Jim Belushi and Michael Keaton
Ran 4 episodes in 1979.  9 were produced, 5 were unaired.

This looked like an OK show.  Too bad it failed :(
Didn't hurt the careers of either actor though.  Not at all.

I am glad that one did not last, cause if it had of, then Stepfanie Kramer would not have gone on to do the super awesome 'Hunter'

The Richard Pryoy Show (lasted 4 episodes in 1977).  I fairly recently caught them in rerun.  I thought they were pretty good and had alot of famous comedians and other actors in it.

Here's a skit:  Star Wars Bar (NSFW but still funny)

JAKQ Dengekitai. This show sadly only ran 30 episodes, because it wasn't tailored toward the kids, unlike it's 80+ episode predecessor Himitsu Sentai Goranger.
