One great thing about YouTube is that it has a lot of full runs of short lived shows and I found that it had Nightmare Cafe which only lasted like 6 episodes and debuted in 92. Kind of an anthology series where two deceased people in a diner helped recently departed souls. Loved it as an 11 year old and added it to my list to rewatch. I also liked the concept of Terra Nova (future humans moving back to the Jurassic Era due to pollution) but I think it could be better told in a book form. No Ordinary Family was another along with M.A.N.T.I.S and The Police Academy tv series (yes I’m an unashamed fan of those movies). I guess I’ll throw in the 02 Twilight Zone. Was better than the garbage that Peele did.

I don't watch enough Western media to offer any valuable examples, but the anime Shimoneta was both hilarious and so politically on point when it came out that it legit was getting spammed even by the normies on KIA1.
Unfortunately, one of the main VAs died in an accident and Japan holds that kind of thing in high respect so its been quietly shelved forever.
I recommend everyone here watch it for the laugh, and see how its no less on point now than it was a decade ago about censorship and the horrors it creates.
Ah, shame. That was one of the animes I really hoped would get a continuation, because I'm not that fond of the manga.
Thanks! Will go on my ever expanding list
Even if they didn't, there was no replacing her for that role, lol.
I don't disagree, but its also unfortunate that an entire series has to just be shelved forever because of such as well.
