21. That movie about the guys counting cards and winning at casinos.

It was bone average. Not so bad that it stays in memory, but not particularly good either. So it ends up very, very forgettable.

 

[AxeMan]

Daves World
Title sequence song was the best thing about it. Love that song - Billy Joel, You May Be Right

 

[haxan7]

Perfect Strangers was a staple of my childhood.

Another one of those things I look back at and think "no wonder I'm weird"

 

[HStallion]

If stuff is still found on rotation at Netflix can it really count? Not saying being on Netflix means you're still in the public and being discussed actively but they are still around and haven't faded into the mists of time.

Now Big Bad Beetle Borgs. I haven't seen anyone mention that fucking show in AGES. Remember the show about 3 kids who turn into comicbook super sentai heroes and fight monsters from the same comic book brought to life while also hanging out in a haunted house filled with old school Hollywood monsters?

[TheFlow]

Push-starring Chris Evans. Cool concept with bad execution

I think that movie was almost deliberately swept under the rug because the controversy around the casting. The main characters in the film were played by white actors, despite the fact that the real people they were based on were all Asian-American.

 

[DontBeThatGuy]

Be Kind Rewind starring Mos Def and Jack Black

Oh yeah! (I actually liked that movie)

 

[sqwarlock]

Loved the shit out of this show, and always wonder just how popular it was.

 

[Manu]

One of my favorite movies as a kid but I swear it's been at least 20 years since the last time I saw air it on TV. It just disappeared overnight.

 

[DontBeThatGuy]

The 90's had a bunch of Saved By the Bell-style of shows that probably deserve a mention here.

 

[highrider]

I loved the art direction and designs in this, but I've never met anyone that's seen it that I can remember lol.


Great choice of Enemy Mine. One of the classic overlooked gems.

 

[daveo42]

Enemy Mine is a great film btw...definitely doesn't get enough credit.

 

[Count Dookkake]

I used to make fun of my brother for liking this. I don't think he even did, but it would make him mad.

 

[LiQuid!]

Manimal!

Also I think I might be one of maybe a dozen people in existence that has seen every episode of Shasta McNasty. Late 90s UPN sure was some shit.

 

[DaiHard]

This inexplicably popped into my head yesterday.

 

[ceramics]

I've never seen another person bring this show up.

I love this show

Watched it as a teenager when it was airing, and I occasionally catch reruns they play on some local channel I have that just seems to play forgotten about sitcoms.

 

[Lumpy Onion]

I remember the nerdy character scoring Dynamite Duke from some sleazy game "dealer". I think it was in the restroom or something. And the episode ended with him steamrolling his games. Dunno why I remember this since it was ages ago.

 

[Sgt. Kabukiman]

Lamest superhero show ever: Fantomette

"Fantomette,
Qui rit, qui pète,
Dans la boite aux lettres."

Boom, I win this thread.

For the record, I hate the first 4 and like the last 4.

I think about this show at least once a month. Haven't seen it in 20 years but I never forgot, dammit!

 

[gfxtwin]

 

[The Illiterati]

Picket Fences.

Seriously, when is this show getting a decent release lol.

And The Practice, and Boston Legal. Why are David E. Kelley shows so hard to find?

 

[empo]

I loved the art direction and designs in this, but I've never met anyone that's seen it that I can remember lol.

I think I rented it with a friend back in the day but that's it.
Have you read this amazing piece on it?

 

[Elitist1945]

The Poseidon Adventure, which is one of the GOAT disaster films.

 

[JS3DX]

Small pic, but here it goes:

[Brerlappin]

Loved this show back in the day. It's the origin of my username!

 

[Goldenroad]

The US Men Behaving Badly, particularly the first season with Rob Schneider. I just remember loving that show as a younger fella. I've never seen it since it was originally on the air, but maybe it's in syndication somewhere.

[afternoon delight]

This thread is kind of the equivalent of that 'endless trash' gif

 

[GeeTeeCee]

I absolutely loved this show when I was young, but I only just remembered it again while reading this thread.

Somebody edited the Wikipedia page for it 17 hours ago. No matter how obscure you think something is, it turns out there's always somebody still paying attention. I salute you, anonymous Internet person diligently maintaining a wiki page for a niche cartoon that is almost 15 years old.

I know the movie gets shit on but man I sure to love it. You don't see buddy films anymore. Anyways there is Yes Dear, Get the Picture, or just about any overlooked Nick show.

[Reckless Abandon]

Hulk Hogan's TV show, Thunder in Paradise.

When I was a kid, I'd always watch it out of boredom. I didn't find u=out until just recently that it was only on for one season.

Wow, this was my first thought and I was sure no one else would have posted it.

Guess we were both wrong

It came on after WWF wrestling, which is how I found out about it. I wanted that damn boat so bad.

I forgot to add Third Watch damn one of the few shows I was really into.

 

[DiipuSurotu]

Oblivion

Biker Mice from Mars

Primeval

Birds of Prey

 

[Strax]

The most underrated sitcom ever made.

 

[Hambulance]

War Planets: Shadow Raiders

Xyber 9

 

[Airola]

Nowhere Man was fantastic back in the day. Great high concept stuff! It was about a man who suddenly notices no-one remembers him anymore, not even his wife.

 

[Unspoken90]

I see this film brought up here and there.

My Brother & Me is a show that I just remember disappearing after it ended.

Plus a lot of those live action Nick shows: Caitlyn's Way, Noah Knows Best, Tiana, and 100 Deeds for Eddie McDowd.

 

[Monocle]

Surf Ninjas was dope.

 

[WhiteWolf]

I adore the Spawn TV show, sad it ended after only 3 seasons. Easily my favorite comic book related TV show.

 

[Monocle]

vio?

vioo?

vipo?

Ohh, vip.

 

[Mr_Antimatter]

Suddenly jumped into my head the other week.

 

[sphagnum]

Wee Sing in the Big Rock Candy Mountains

 

[Freeza Under The Shower]

The fact that we apparently all had the same childhoods. :|

Let me just throw in my old man cards:

Space 1999

I, Claudius

Dragonslayer (1981)

The Wonderful Wizard of Oz (1986. Anime is for jerks! )

Exo Squad (jerks!)
