10 Forgotten TV Shows from 1990 That Were HUGE Flops
1990 gave us The Simpsons’ first full season and Twin Peaks—but it also delivered some of the biggest TV disasters ever! From Jennifer Aniston’s pre-Friends flop to Brad Pitt’s early misfire, and even Whoopi Goldberg couldn’t save her doomed sitcom. These forgotten shows were so bad they feel like a collective fever dream.
TV networks took huge swings—and missed! Sandra Bullock struggled in a failed Working Girl adaptation, a Brady Bunch reboot tried (and failed) to be edgy, and somehow, a police drama with Broadway-style musical numbers actually aired on TV. The creative decisions behind these flops are truly baffling!
Did you suffer through any of these disasters? Drop a comment and tell us which one you remember! If you made it through Cop Rock or Sandra Bullock’s NBC sitcom, consider yourself a true 1990 TV survivor!
