Why do the networks spend all that money, only to kill the show?
Was SOUTH OF SUNSET the one that starred one of the Eagles? If so, those of us here* didn’t even get that first show.
* So much time has passed that thanks to CRS I don’t recall whether “here” was just the LA area or the whole West coast.
SOUTH OF SUNSET starred Glenn Frey as a PI. They finally burned off the episodes on MTV, I think.
Another one-episode bomb was SUNSET BEAT starring George Clooney and Brad Pitt!
Do they still have that God awfully fantastic soap Sunset Beach over there?
A real example of good quality American soap. *g*
Lee,
I think ABC aired the two-hour pilot of ”Sunset Beat” on 4/21/1990 and a one-hour ep on 4/28/1990.
CBS canned ”South of Sunset” after one ep and VH-1 aired the remaining eps.
Wasn’t Clooney is a movie called Red Surf around that time? I remember it mostly because the cinema in Santa Cruz where I saw it was rocked by a quake. The locals yawned because it was below 6.0 but I had a wet spot that wasn’t from my Coke.
