She had several, actually.

[@emptyhand777]

Not too surprising, both her parents were in Hollywood, ensuring their daughter would always be on the audition short list for sitcoms. Her father John Aniston was most famous for acting on Soap Operas for decades. Her mother Nancy Down was also a long time TV actress.

[@alvexok5523]

@@emptyhand777 Yeah, without them having been her parents, she would've hardly been known except for someone who was in those couple of failed 1990 sitcoms. She wouldn't have been on Friends, in Office Space, or Along Came Polly, they would've had a totally different actress playing those roles. I wonder if Lisa Kudrow would've played the characters in those latter 2 movies if Jennifer Aniston never made it past the early 90s failed sitcoms

[@alvexok5523]

Without her having 2 famous parents, her career wouldn't have taken off the way it did. Jennifer Aniston would've been much less well known since she would've only ever been seen in those 1990 failed sitcoms and she wouldn't have ever been in her career boosting hits Friends, Office Space, and Along Came Polly. Jen Aniston isn't the only one who made it big with the help of famous relatives. How big would've Drew Barrymore been without her grandpa John Barrymore, her great uncle Lionel Barrymore, and her dad John Barrymore Jr.?

Early Fox was such a damn great network. It's a shame it eventually became "just another network", because when it first started, they had a ton of fire TV shows that pushed the envelope. Parker Lewis, Married with Children, In Living Color, The Simpsons, Get a Life, Beverly Hills 90210, even Herman's Head... just a ton of shows that were doing stuff that the "big" networks weren't doing at the time.

[@kevincampbell5785]

I remember a show called "Cupid" starring Jeremy Piven and Paula Marshall. It aired for only 15 episodes in 1998-99. It was a hip, smart romantic comedy with Piven claiming to actually be Cupid, the Roman God of Love, who has to unite 100 couples, without the use of any of his magic powers, in order to return to Mount Olympus. Marshall is the Psychologist assigned to his case. It was revived in 2009 with Bobby Cannavale and Sarah Paulson in the roles and that too was cancelled after an even lesser 7 episodes.

ABC kept hoping that all those baby boomers who grew up with the original series would watch these reunions out of a sense of nostalgia but the network tried to draw water from that well once too often and this time, it discovered that the well had finally dried up.

Also, I remember this being the era where networks seemed to love producing shows based off popular movies.

Also ironic that The Bradys aired against ABC's TGIF lineup as the original Brady Bunch was an ABC show. And I absolutely remember Cop Rock because I thought the concept was ridiculous 😂.

So apparently TV shows based off movies don't do so well. And NBC was really trying hard to find something until Friends came along. They already had Seinfeld!

Seinfeld took a while to get going. Friends was huge right away. Seinfeld became the huge show we think of now in 94 when Friends premiered. NBC went from having one show that was 25th in the ratings to having the two biggest shows on TV almost overnight.

[@elhadjhabbouche663]

NBC had "Cheers" and "The Cosby Show", 2 hit shows, but both were coming to an end, that's probably why they were really trying hard to find something, just like you said. As @mjwbulich said in his/her comment, it was not until season 3 or 4 for "Seinfeld" to become a popular show. I would add that NBC really made it big with "ER" starting the same year than "Friends", having their famous Thursday evening which had "Seinfeld", "Friends" and "ER" for several years.

"Parker Lewis" was my shiggity....lol.

[@kimberlywoolfolk7575]

I really liked that show too!!

[@melvert33]

Hard to see how the cops in Cop Rock get any work done what with breaking into extended song most of their shift.

[@crystalshaw8744]

😂😂😂

[@sparklesapp6853]

Cop Rock was one of those fever dreams.....I want back !!!

[@michaelspikes1506]

Excellent video

[@TheReviewStudios]

I'm glad you liked it, thanks

[@mclockwork777]

Cop Rock ruled!

[@subteeninhumansamuraiamphi5019]

Its hard just getting past Ferris Bueller intro 😂

[@HardRockMiner]

Cop Rock looked like something beyond cringy. 😮

[@PinkieJoJo]

Never heard of any of them honestly. But. I didn’t watch tons of tv back then. I was in 7th grade and I was always busy our running around or listening to music.

[@grannyweatherwax8005]

You were 12. How many evenings were you out during prime time “running around”?

[@phantomzonegaming4161]

I never watched any of these shows, but did watch blossom and Parker Lewis.

[@DarrylRuiz-s1w]

The Brady's didn't stand a chance against Steve Urkel That Cop Rock exists is amazing

[@gcooper642]

Oh the white tights of 1990 3:35. I begged my mum for a pair to wear with my dress for my cousin's wedding. She took photos from the knees up to cut them out and pretend they never existed lol.

[@roclee8138]

He literally told y'all PARKER LEWIS CAN'T LOSE !!! Did you think he was lying ??? 😂😂😂

[@pinner01]

Wow! I never actually thought I’d find the worst tv show ever-cop rock is it! My god…

[@TheReviewStudios]

yes!

[@philip2010]

As far as the bradys I liked the show growing up but unfortunately by 1990 it was old news and there were new generations watching TV who didn't care about a show from the 70s 😢😢

[@bloodrunsclear]

Cop Rock is the only show that literally ends with the cast members complaining about how the show got canceled. I think Angry Beavers was going to do that but Nickelodeon had a rule at the time that no show they owned could bring up facts outside of the show (like cancelation)

[@NJGuy1973]

And then there's "I Married Dora."

[@crystalshaw8744]

Not Norb!! He never complains...giggle

[@ROMANTIKILLER2]

I don't remember ever seeing any of those shows. It is interesting though to see how many of them feature eventually popular actors in their first gigs. Also, Cop Rock sounds an absolutely bonkers concept.

[@necrosmurf316]

Talk about not being able to read a room...I remember when Cop rock came out. It was made fun of by every person I knew, I have no idea how that show made it on the air in the first place. Who was it trying to appeal to? Did Hollywood think fans of the Sound of Music were looking for a musical based on beat cops? Very weird.

[@mck1972]

' They Came from Outer Space ', was absolutely hysterical-Gone way too soon!
