Canceled Too Soon #247 | "Fish Police" (1992) Aug 02, 2024

Show notes

They're fish. They're police. And they're horny?

This week on CANCELED TOO SOON, film critics William Bibbiani and Witney Seibold swim back to the 1990s to visit one of the first primetime animated series to emerge after the unexpected success of THE SIMPSONS! John Ritter, Megan Mullally, Hector Elizondo, JoBeth Williams, Robert Guillaume and Ed Asner star in FISH POLICE, a cop comedy about fish who solve crimes and really, really, really want to have sex with each other.

FISH POLICE was canceled after only three episodes, but was it... CANCELED TOO SOON?

Canceled Too Soon #246 | "The Idol" (2023) Jul 26, 2024

Show notes

When THE IDOL got canceled, everyone made sure we knew about it. And we swore at that time that we would, someday, cover the most notorious TV dud in years on CANCELED TOO SOON.

Today, dear listeners, is that day. Lily-Rose Depp and The Weeknd lead a staggeringly impressive cast in Sam Levinson's prurient, cynical, baffling erotic (?) thriller (?) drama (?) about a young music star who falls in with a creepy abuser, whose humiliations and tortures bring out the best in her music.

Was it CANCELED TOO SOON? By god, we are about to find out.

Canceled Too Soon #245 | "Geico Cavemen" (2007) Jul 19, 2024

Show notes

We're kicking off a new season of CANCELED TOO SOON with one of our most requested episodes ever: CAVEMEN (2007), a very short-lived sitcom based on the popular commercials from GEICO, in which cavemen still walk among us but have to contend with racism and stereotypes.

Co-starring Nick Kroll, Sam Huntington, Jeff Daniel Phillips and Julie White, it's one of the most notorious misfires in television history.

But was it... CANCELED TOO SOON? You're about to find out!
