You Aired What?

Some TV shows last and last. Some shouldn't. And, fortunately (or unfortunately), some barely make it out of the starting gate, dying after only one episode. Here's a short list:

Turn-On (February 5, 1969). This one I remember when it came out, but not much more. It was intended as a Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In variation, but it was just a little too out there and explicit.  Actually, it didn't even finish the entire episode before someone pulled the plug.  Gone.

Lawless (March 21, 1997). Some former athletes can make a go of TV and/or movies (think Alex Karras), and some can't. That was the case with former NFL linebacker Brian Bosworth when he played a private investigator in this one-hit not-so-wonder.

The Internet's a riot, right? Yeah, that's what ABC thought on December 8, 2000, when they unleashed Dot Comedy that featured humorous 'Net material. Some things should just stay at the office.

Told ya this would be a short list tonight.

'til next time... Adios.
