[@susanfit47]

6 years after the success of the original "Amazing Stories" episode "The Family Dog", a CBS series based on the episode was produced by Steven Spielberg and Tim Burton (director of movies such as "Pee-Wee's Big Adventure", "Beetlejuice", "Batman", "Batman Returns", "Edward Scissorhands", "Singles", The Nightmare Before Christmas etc) who was involved in the original episodes contributing the story's production and character designs). It was written by Dennis Klein ("All in the Family", "Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman", "Best of the West", "Buffalo Bill", "The Larry Sanders Show", "Bakersfield, P.D."), Sherri Stoner and Paul Dini and animated by Nelvana, but notably lacking the involvement of the original writer and director, Brad Bird. Because of the buzz surrounding the "Amazing Stories" episode, NBC announced later that year (in '87) they'd be turning "Family Dog" into a weekly series. My memory's fuzzy, but I think the regime at NBC changed soon after. Or possibly Spielberg was bitter over the cancellation of "Amazing Stories" and opted not to continue with the network. Whatever the reason, the show didn't immediately happen... but reports persisted that it was in the works. The once-unemployed Brad Bird found himself in high demand, eventually taking a job on a new show called :The Simpsons", which became an instant success for Fox (leading to a tidal wave of short-lived animated sitcoms), Burton was drawing crowds in theaters and his films were huge renters on home video so it was little wonder when CBS announced in May 1990 they'd be picking up the show -- continuously associating it with Burton’s and Spielberg's names. In early 1990, there was a newspaper-type ad for CBS with a huge picture of the Family Dog on the front, heralding "Steven Spielberg and Tim Burton present 'Family Dog!' Coming to CBS This Fall!'" Along with the pic of the pooch was a small story with some quotes from Spielberg and Burton describing the plot and genesis of the "Amazing Stories" episode. I wish someone held on to that paper. The series was scheduled to debut as a mid-season replacement on March 20, 1991 (and it was heavily promoted during the February 20, 1991 broadcast of the Grammy Awards), but the animation production wasn't completed in time for this premiere, ultimately it would be another 2+ years before "Family Dog" finally aired. Animation was having a renaissance at the time, "The Simpsons" garnering high ratings, MTV’s quirky "Liquid Television" in the works, and syndicated, weekday and Saturday morning children’s cartoons flooding the networks. Largely hyped due to the involvement of Spielberg, the series suffered various noted production delays that plagued the show. It did not get past its original network order of 13 episodes. Only 10 episodes were finished and sent back from the Wang Film Productions animation house in Taiwan, but the producers were dissatisfied with the results, so they halted production on the final 3 episodes and outsourced the 10 episodes to Nelvana for "fixes and completions", according to an Amblin rep. Meanwhile, there was a merchandising craze surrounding "The Simpsons" - everything from T-shirts and toys to CDs, with a vast array of unauthorized knock-offs floating around. Anticipating the success of the series, someone signed a deal with Applause, Inc. to produce plush dolls of the titular character. Nintendo produced a video game of the same name for the Super NES 2 years later. There was the obligatory apparel and even dinnerware plastered with pics of the pooch. As the show’s debut was pushed back repeatedly, all of this merchandise wound up gathering dust in warehouses before finally being relegated to bargain bins. "Family Dog" was rescheduled with a launch in October ’91, but when it became clear that that was unfeasible, it remained on their mid-season replacement list for the ’91-’92 season, but it still didn't happen. Unfortunately, the show would hit another snag in early ’92... The series was part of a spate of attempts by major networks to develop prime time animated shows to compete with the surprise success of Fox's "The Simpsons", alongside ABC's "Capitol Critters" and CBS's own "Fish Police" which was based on an 1980's independent comic book series of the same name, paired with "Scorch", a goofy sitcom starring a dragon puppet (which was frequently likened to A.L.F.), flopped during half of the 1991-92 season. All 4 shows were canceled in their 1st season. In November 1992, the 10 completed and "fixed" episodes were finally handed over to CBS. It’s unclear whether the network was displeased with the show, distraught over the failure of "Fish Police", or merely annoyed at having to wait so long for the show after scheduling it (again and again), but CBS sat on the tapes for months, so the series was ultimately pushed back until 1993 as a summer replacement. Frederick Coffin was originally cast as the voice of Skip Binsford, but Spielberg decided to replace him with Martin Mull, after animation was completed on the 1st 3 episodes. But Burton and Spielberg were not happy with the quality of the finished show, so it was hidden away for a while after 10 episodes were shot (all episodes have a 1992 copyright date). In early June, 1993, CBS finally scheduled the show to air. New episodes that air on the networks from May to September are most generally being “burned off.” In other words, it was clear that CBS had given up on the show and had no intention of ordering more episodes. The June 23 release of the episode, unsurprisingly, coincided with June 11 release of Spielberg’s latest film, "Jurassic Park". Family Dog received minuscule promotion and aired in hour-long blocks on Wednesday nights for five weeks from June through July, 1993. Scheduled opposite reruns of "Unsolved Mysteries", "Beverly Hills, 90210", "The Wonder Years" and "Doogie Howser, M.D.", viewers simply didn’t tune in (or perhaps even know it was finally airing), with the first 2 episodes ranking #40 and #42 out of 94 shows in the weekly Nielsen Ratings. In retrospect, "Family Dog" is often considered to be a landmark production that, combined with films such as Don Bluth's "An American Tail" (1986) and "The Land Before Time" (1988) and Disney films like "Who Framed Roger Rabbit" (1988), "Oliver & Company" (1988) and "The Little Mermaid" (1989), led to the Disney Renaissance, which had films such as "Beauty and the Beast" (1991), "Aladdin" (1992) and "The Lion King" (1994). It comes fairly close in tone to being a "Beavis and Butt-head" knockoff. The animation harks back to the earliest days of "The Jetsons," and surely that's not intentional. Perhaps to recoup some of their losses, several episodes were released on VHS in 1994, and the complete series was released in a laserdisc boxed set. And with that, "Family Dog" was all but forgotten by the studios. Warner Bros. owned a stake in the show and Cartoon Network merged with Warner Bros. in the mid-90s. No reruns there. Aside from DVD-Rs duped from the laserdisc set, which have been illegally sold on eBay and i-offer, the show’s hasn't been released on DVD yet. Not even the "Amazing Stories" episode is currently available, as Universal halted the American DVD release of season 2 due to lackluster sales of season 1. It's a doggone travesty.

People watching this today, most likely wondering why the robbers only stole junk. When Family Dog originally aired, it was in the 1980s, not 1993 when the family dog series came out. Back then, people didn't own expensive electronics like we have today, so when a house was robbed, it happened with fake movers who would clean out an entire house, making neighbors think fellow neighbors were moving. Furniture stolen would be cleaned up and sold in other states. If you ever saw a truck in a parking lot or off highway, selling brand new furniture sets at cheap prices, those were actually stolen from homes and sold in other states. When this episode aired, this was happening so much, they made PSAs using Seargent Mcgruff, to teach children and families what to watch out for. Now a days furniture gets ignored and they just steal jewelry and electronics. Back in the days, the entire home got taken.

I arrived here through the internet rabbit-hole. I was listening to a 2001 song by the Gorillaz, a virtual anime band, and I decided to search the animator of those interesting band anime characters. The anime artists name is Jamie Hewlett, and his Wiki page mentions "Family Dog" animation as an early influence. So, I decided to find an episode of "Family Dog" since I had never actually watched one before. I can definitely see the similarity between "Billy Binsford" (the son) in this series, and the anime style of Hewlett for the band characters. Interesting evolution of cartoon/anime art work.
