19 SUNDRY INTROS TO 90s TV SHOWS

[@Daehawk]

Brisco County Jr!! Loved that show. Way too short a run. RIP Lord Bowler / Sho'nuff.

[@Savvybear1981]

RIP Robert vaughn.

[@sharonl.allerson582]

We really enjoyed Brisco County, Jr! Glad to see that here!

[@yaywhewclips242]

The 1990-1992 Flash series was much less complex than the 2013- NOW show. It was cool that Shipp, the 1990's FLASH, showed up as Jay Garrick on the CW show

[@Lana2k6]

He also returned as his version of The Flash in the recent crossover event.

[@marcdecrosta4238]

If they didn't try to stylise it after Burton's Batman it would have worked better. It was just too dark(visually) for it to be Flash.

[@hawkflame9584]

Danny Elfman’s flash theme is still one of the best superhero themes ever.

[@scottlarson1548]

Once again I'm glad I spent little time watching television in the 90's.

[@GSoS2000]

The Flash....what a fun show that was....

[@tbb033]

Too bad the fake news had to preempt the Trickster ep because the Prez barfed in Japan.

[@doorock42]

Thank you for finding Vengeance Unlimited. That was one of my favorite shows that season. too bad it didn't last.

[@RwDt09]

+doorock42 Episodes of it are currently on KZbin, just type the show title in the search window and you should get it right away.

[@doorock42]

+RwDt09 Oh, don't worry, I've got them all saved on an external drive. But so few people appreciate the show like I do.

[@joannegray5138]

I liked Vengeance Unlimited too. I still have a couple of episodes somewhere on tape (and a working vcr)

[@brianlowe560]

Brisco County Jr should've been huge - FOX buried it.

[@ricovali9245]

The Robert Townsend Show was greatness. It was sort of a spinoff of his low budget movie 'Hollywood Shuffle'. Which was also a surprIse hit.

[@fromthesidelines]

Again, it was doomed because it aired on Sundays at 7pm(et), opposite "60 MINUTES".

[@BigDogCountry]

Kinda looks like "In Dead Color"

[@LaDracul]

Glad to hear R.E.M.'s "Stand" with "Get A Life" as they apparently had to use an original song when it was in syndication...I notice that with some songs on "That '70s Show"... Also, both Clint Howard and Linda Hunt were in "Solo: A Star Wars Story"... :)

[@PKSandman]

11:24 Deadline was essentially killed before it could get out of the gate. In between airing against Monday Night Football, Everybody Loves Raymond, and Ally McBeal, it also had to deal with losing crowds to pro wrestling (RAW was at its peak, Nitro... LOLWCW2000). It never had a chance. (also, Deadline was 2000-2001)

[@RwDt09]

You got that right, Deadline was 2000-01. How I let that one slip in as a 90s series can probably be explained by my thinking of the title Dateline, which did debut in the 90s, though I wouldn't have included that one in this video. A kind of subliminal cross-wired error, I guess.

[@senatorsparky]

A lot of great actors in that show, I’ve never heard of it but would totally watch it today

[@krisanderson3796]

@4:05 I loved Get a Life!! Chris Elliot is hilarious

[@vsgfilmgroup]

Hey Shout Factory, here's a bundle of good shows to pick up! Get to work, huh?

[@MrPaulmorris7777]

Loved Brisco County jr.

[@claymccoy]

The Hull High intro represents all that has not dated well from the 90s.

[@BlackoutCreature]

Wow, Space Rangers. I genuinely thought I had hallucinated that show.

[@lblum610]

Now I am starting to really understand why UPN and the WB didn't stick around long

[@fromthesidelines]

Even though "P.S.I. LUV U" was cancelled after only 13 episodes, it was VERY popular in Europe.

[@woodsz33]

that Elvis show was actually pretty good if memory serves...

[@Forcemaster2000]

This collection of "stinkers" makes you wonder how we made it out of the 90's!

[@618greenleaf7]

The founder of Wendy's had a comedy show?

[@nailsarecruel]

I had no idea who Bruce Campbell was at the time, I just watched Briscoe county Jr. for Kelly Rutherford. I think I should find and watch it now.

[@senatorsparky]

Calling a show “Pigsty” and expecting people to want to watch it is the height of hubris

[@jermed2001]

I loved "Get a Life" and "The Flash" as a kid. That intro brings back so many memories. but the rest I've never heard of?

[@janegrantz2723]

Robert Vaughn was funny in his brief bit, and demonstrated that he should have been cast as a pompous, clueless "Ted Baxter" type in some other series.

[@7233145]

Chris Elliot's Get A Life was before its time! It was so freaking funny and intelligent. It aired my freshmen year in college (Bates) and everyone in my dorm would gather around the lounge and watch it, and we KNEW a show this smart and offbeat would not last a second season. Unfortunately, we were correct.

[@tbb033]

For some reason, on our local affiliate, it (along with Whoops! and maybe a few other shows [Gary Schandling?]) got preempted from prime time an aired instead in late night/overnight slot. But hey, I might not have ever seen them otherwise!

[@toonguyfry1819]

Um...no you weren't: www.imdb.com/title/tt0098802/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1

[@PrincessofPower84]

I liked Get a Life, too! And so did my older brother and sister.

[@PreApocalypseJitters]

Had Season 2 and disappeared.

[@jrbrantley5990]

Agreed.

[@DavidTSmith-jn5bs]

I've got "The ORIGINAL Flash" and "Adventures of Briscoe County Jr." on DVD. The others...

[@Daehawk]

Oh wow I loved The Adventures of Brisco County Jr!.! I mean Ash and Sho'nuff both?..Heck ya. It ended way way too soon.

[@kristinmarie862]

I loved PS I Luv U lol

[@molinalong3468]

The Rockford Files (1990s version ) Starring James Garner as Jim Rockford

[@ovaltinehangover2463]

I had no idea Dave Thomas not only made old fashioned hamburgers, but was also a comedian.

[@claymccoy]

Only two of these shows got a second season...

[@valereirenfro9040]

I miss the innocence of the tv shows of the 90's! Now it's dark, perverted, not very family friendly it's like the adult themed shows are being mixed in EVERYTHING!. I hate it.

[@paultimson6674]

what happened to Klunge Fooker? that nineties tv show starring Karl Mercer and Daphne Watson?

[@jamallugo6544]

Briscoe County Jr theme using NBC Sports Major League Baseball world series theme back in the late 90s

[@thomasdavenport8705]

Jamal Lugo it also shows up every other year on NBC for Olympics coverage.

[@michellefairfield7743]

Wasn’t The Adventures of Bristo County Jr the lead in to The X Files

[@davincent98]

I think it was on at 7, and the X-Files was on at 10.

[@toddstewart9070]

Hey I remember a couple of these, somehow.

[@MrBranh0913]

Wow. Dana Harvey had a show. I do not remember and I watched a lot of TV back then

[@donaldpaluga]

obviously it wasn't as popular as mine!-Wayne Campbell

[@plauditecives]

I thought "The Flash" was an excellent series. Too bad it lasted only one season.

[@karenford9797]

Vengeance Unlimited was way too short lived, as was Spy Game. The first episode of Game features cameos by Patrick MacNee and Peter Lupus!

[@tbb033]

Is that the Taco Bell Dana Carvey Show or the Mug Root Beer Dana Carvey Show? Never mind, they both flopped.

[@teto85]

I watched the Flash. I don't remember any of the other programs.

[@IsiahTomas]

0:08, Cows raped.

[@butcherboy2008]

Pause at 2:26. Is that Bryan Cranston?

[@itiswhatitaintanditaintwha1427]

Dana Carvey was Re-run?

[@claymccoy]

Deadline came out in 2000, just sayin'.

[@Laceykat66]

What pictures of TV executives does Chris Elliott have that keeps getting him work ? Thanks for these "memories."

[@aggressiveattitudeera887]

Get A Life was funny as Hell!

[@gspendlove]

I remember being very excited for Covington Cross when I first saw the promo. Then I watched it. Boring.

[@lblum610]

Get a Life Ruled

[@orystotle6084]

Sundry, indeed. These compilations need a context. Too many shows listed here seem to be arbitrary selections when they could be reflecting some social reality of the time. For example, the subordinate role of women (only one lame show with a female lead), "minorities" (one show with a black lead) or even the power of the printed press (e.g. Dick Wolf's Deadline). Speaking of Deadline the theme is somewhat funky.

[@scottanderson8167]

Television has just always been horrible, hasn’t it?

[@jmuduke99]

Only good show was Get A Life

[@misled1982]

Deadline had pretty amazing cast...still shitty show it seems never lasted for what? 1 season?

[@wishmaster7438]

I never heard or even watched most of these real stinkers except for The Flash, which became boringly stupid, and the drama Deadline.

[@icyhotonmynuts]

What? No My Secret Identity?
