Can you complete the names of these forgotten 1980s TV flops?
We're so sure some of these '80s shows will stump you.
In the 1980s, TV wasn't afraid to get a little loud and in some cases, super wacky. Amid unusual premises that surprisingly hit (like ALF or Quantum Leap), we also saw a string of misses that maybe took us just a bit too far out of our comfort zones or straight-up couldn't compete with the Cheers-es of the world.
Here, you have a chance to revisit shows you maybe haven't thought of in decades. Some were critically acclaimed. Others were spin-offs. They all featured major stars. And yet not one of them stuck around longer than two seasons, and most couldn't even make it through a single season run.
