AFAIK i’m the only person who remembers 100 Center Street, my mom forgot it years ago

Wow yes I definitely don't remember ever hearing about this
It was really good for the time! If it weren’t for newspapers it would have never become appointment television in our household. Alan Alda as a lawyer (judge? idr) who knows Judaism but only as much as is convenient to a healthy life was v relatable
man, 7 days ruled
Oh and also I designed the website for 666 park ave lol
Seriously?! I never heard of the show until I saw it in the subreddit but it does sound pretty interesting, like a "deal with the devil" building in a prime location
It had a great cast, but I think it was too expensive and you’d be surprised how many superstitious people will just not touch anything with 666 in it. Idk how much that contributed but I know it was a non-zero amount
Oh I'm sure! People are definitely hilariously superstitious about this kind of stuff. I still think about this totally sweet apartment I lived in for a while that was cheap and available because it was apt 13 and people were scared of spooky number 13
I fucking loved push Nevada. I have a bumper sticker somewhere even, I need to go find it
Is this a leave it to beaver parody?
It's a show where a grown-up version of the title character recounts growing up in the 60s, but they kinda play up how the 60s were. It wasn't very good, but adult Beene was a Voice Over done by David Cross which is made funnier in retrospect after he was the "white voice" in Sorry to Bother You
I guess it'd be accurate to call it a more cynical version of The Wonder Years
Yeah I was thinking of the wonder years when I read your description
Sounds pretty fun!
hey it’s john locke
This is cool but also a lot of the posts are driving me insane because people don't understand the assignment and they'll just share any show at all.
Lmao yeah I noticed that too - occasionally people do post stuff like this which is very much NOT forgotten but I think the subreddit on the whole is worth it for all the actually obscure stuff
Honestly makes it more fun because I can get bemused discovering Kelsey Grammer had a sketch comedy show for six episodes in 2004 (???) and then whiplash into outrage because somebody thinks Rocco's Modern Life is forgotten TV.
Lmao yeah I actually remembered the sketch show only because I saw an episode of it once on one of those airport trains
fredo forgot about the what if time travle but only a week into the past show?
Wait is THAT what 7 days is about?!
if it were not so i would have told you
Pretty fascinating stuff, I've never even heard of most of the stuff on here
You ever catch this guy's stuff? It's GREAT youtu.be/dcygpXJ4WCw?...
Doesn't get more intriguing than Push, Nevada. Gambler? Lawyer? Could be anything
Push Nevada was a twin peaks style mystery with a real life treasure hunt. They’d give out clues in the episodes to where the money was buried.
That's so wild
Yeah I was reading about this in the thread, pretty zany stuff. I did not remember this show at all!
How did this not make waves? The protagonist: Jim Prufrock (Derek Cecil): a mild-mannered IRS agent who travels to Push to investigate a fax that was accidentally sent to his office.
Sounds pretty compelling tbh
lmao what the hell
Except the show bombed and they didn’t air all the episodes but still had to give the money out. They picked someone at random I think
Woah!
Seven Days was fuckin wild stuff
I LOVED that show when it was on when I was a young teen I wonder how it holds up
Do you folks remember? www.youtube.com/watch?v=4S43...
I have absolutely watched all this lololol
Ok I grew up in phoenix and rewatching this, this was clearly at least in part shot in phoenix!!?
Pepperidge Farms remembers...
I do not but this looks exactly like my shit
Do you remember anything about it? I just sort of guessed based on the poster that it was a sorta B tier space sci fi deal, sorta reminds me of Babylon 5 or something like that
they in ented time travel that could send one dude back in time exactly one week, it was kina x-files/crime drama vibe with the lab / SF element
Sounds like you could definitely do some interesting stories with that plot device 🤔
terminator rules: cant take no guns
it’s about a guy who gets sprung from jail I think to work for a federal organization with a Time Machine that sends him back exactly seven days to prevent disasters from happening
Sounds like a thing I would have probably liked tbh!
it was pretty ok! very 90’s cheese
I think about the show Persons Unknown a lot because I like Alan Ruck but I have never heard of anyone ever talking about that show
Lmao yeah this is the first I'm hearing of it
It was weird! Like I think they were trying to make We Have Lost At Home but a weird game show maybe, who knows?? It was weird, but I enjoyed it. Like Alan Ruck is great. One of those actors you know you'll have a good time if he shows up
From what I understand, there were quite a lot of shows that were heavily influenced by lost in those few years between it blowing up huge and subsequently having an ending everyone hated
Man, they had a great opportunity to get Terry O'Quinn an incredible career after LOST and they fumbled the bag so hard.
It's a real bummer how fickle the business is! Someone can have a real star making performance and then just unluckily be in a flop or two and opportunity dries up
It’s stunning how many failed pilots just Dan Harmon had, with all possible degrees of star power on hand
7 days was a cool series
I'm learning about it from this thread and it sounds cool!
Yeah, it was a show that I wasn't tuning into watch but it'd come on after something and I'd watch it.
I need to check out that subreddit. A ship I was on in the navy got a bunch of shows on DVD once, and I had never heard of any of them. One I remember was some medical comedy that had no big names and was filmed in like Columbia? Somewhere in South America. But the set was all American
One of those things I find really interesting is that there are so many of these shows that nobody remembers, that never found an audience, and now you can find a lot of them on tubi and those types of free streaming services
I saw one episode of Go On, I thought it was pretty good
Seven Days holds up in tyool 2025 and anybody even vaguely into sci-fi should watch the episodes that are on YouTube (then pirate the rest)
Heard somebody was doin a retrospective rewatch
youtu.be/xWW4vac5Nmk Next episode drops as soon as I finish editing something narratively sound together!!!
My wife and I saw a promo for "Go On" and she immediately said "Gooooon!"
I would rather watch Goon with Sean William Scott.
Pretty fun movie!
Unexpectedly sweet as well
Ironically, a very difficult show to Goon to.
This had to be solidly before goon had that meaning, or if it did, we knew about it
idk maybe you get off on seeing group hugs
A bunch of people group hugging and you're sitting in a chair
@flyintheflannel.bsky.social
Thank you. This could be very important to those of us in the D.B. Sweeney fandom.
Sorry for tagging you, I didn't want to wait until the meeting
eric alper eat your heart out
i loved 7 days! I'm still really enamored with their choice to make time travel so physically dangerous you get spat out the other side like you were in a clothes dryer
