@@nicolaasjonkhart4660 - Actually, 'Voyagers" enjoyed a 17 share of the ratings (quite high, especially considering they were going up against CBS's "60 Minutes"). The show was expected to be renewed for a 2nd season, however, NBC decided to gamble by canceling a show with high ratings ("Voyager") and instead replace it with its own news-magazine program called "Monitor" to compete with "60 Minutes". NBC's gamble failed royally as the "Monitor" did poorly in the ratings, with a paltry 7 share...10 points less than "Voyagers". A Network's management INCOMPETENCE played the biggest role in the widely popular show "Voyagers" being canceled.

I was once at a group dinner in Beverly Hills and, as luck would have it, I sat across from Jeff Conaway. I assumed most people would ask him about Andy Kaufman, or Taxi, or Grease or Babylon 5, but I thought I would playfully screw with him and so I said "Wizards and Warriors was on of my favorite shows back in the day." I thought he would just chuckle or wince or something, but he lit up and told me about how much he enjoyed it and what a shame it was that it was canceled. The reason? The head of CBS at the time of development was gung-ho for the series to work, but by the time the show aired, someone else was in charge and they were not a fan, and the series was never given the chance to find an audience. Though we knew several of the same people, I never saw Jeff Conaway again. Such a friendly, humble guy. I was sad to learn of his decline and death.

Manimal and Automan are two promising IPs that can actually do quite well today. In their original presentation they were undoubtedly bit rough around the edges and needed some quality checks but they entertained nonetheless and their cheese was part of the appeal, especially for Automan. Automan has potential to be a comedic detective sci-fi show if it fully embraces the techno fantasy elements. Perhaps even bring alien tech into it to make him possible for the way he is. Manimal, on the other hand, has immense potential to be a psychological thriller police series, preferably mini series. They can make it about Professor Chase indirectly by telling the story through Ty or Brooke as the main protagonist who comes in contact with a mysterious Dr Chase on one of the mind bending cases. Now the draw would be the mystical presentation of Dr Chase, the unknown factors, an otherworldly aura about him. He could even be slyly presented as a villain, which may or may not be true. All the while keeping his power to turn into animals ambiguous, to sort of add dreamlike quality to the show. But alas, they are ignoring these shows that have great potential!

Anyway, 'Voyagers' enjoyed a 17 share of the ratings (quite high) and was expected to be renewed for a 2nd season, even though it went up against the news-magazine program, '60-Minutes'. NBC nonetheless decided to gamble by canceling 'Voyagers' and replace it with its own news-magazine program to compete against '60 Minutes'. That NBC news-magazine program ("Monitor") was a ratings disaster, averaging just a 7 share of the ratings (10 points less than "Voyager"). And nope...it didn't help that the main actor was killed during the rise in his popularity.

Most of these shows aired on Friday or Saturday, date night for 90% of their target audience.

Voyagers was not canceled before its time. The main star died from playing with blanks.

Not from the 80s, but Generation NeXt? (I think that's the title.) From the Generation X title comic book (Marvel, X-men.) It seemed pretty directionless, w/cheesy acting. Also, the original Fantstic Four movie was a cheddar fest, horrendous acting & sfx.

They had two different Justice League of America TV movies that were even cheesier.

Still am a fan of Battle Star Galactica the original cast… and though (1980) version was poorly written, still watch it at times.

These shows are not forgotten by science fiction lovers and often better than the dreadful Star Trek redos of Next Generation and Enterprise.

Dang wizards and warriors looked promising. The Phoenix seemed boring. There was also a show with Catherine Hicks where she plays a psychic. The 80s were big in new concepts. Now aways there's hardly anything original anymore.
