Hang on to your snowglobes...

Okay.

I'm finally sifting through old emails, LJ notifications and

Aired pilots for shows that never came to fruition count, right? Because if so, you should add 'Lookwell' to the list because of the L.A. Tribune. When I get back from vacation, I'll send you a nice screen grab of it with Adam West as Lookwell.

Aired pilots count. Looking forward to Lookwell :-)

Speaking of Adam West, what about the pilot/two episode series Legends of the Superheroes where he appeared as Batman

RAF

I was under the impression that was a TV Movie/Mini-Series, never intended to be an ongoing series.

Legends is in and has been on the Grid quite a while. Mini-series do count. So do pilots.

I need a good Electric Company guide.

[crossoverman]

Legends doesn't count as a separate series for the Tommyverse as all spin-off TV movies and mini-series merely count as part of the original series. If Legends was the pilot for another series, that would be different.

Some additions

[johnmunch]

Keith, at times I wish you would stop changing the rules. Mini series were declared 'in' by yourself, on the same level as pilots for failed shows (W*A*L*T*E*R et al.).

Legends was not a spin-off (ten years after Batman got cancelled???).

To pleasant things:

Remington Steele has a x-over with Moonlighting.

Moonlighting brings in Hart to Hart.

(Yes, the original moniker is working again. I have no idea why.)

Re: Some additions

Failed (non-back door) pilots register as a different show. Where have we listed a mini-series as a separate show?

Another lance for Legends

[johnmunch]

Hmm. You're right - sort of.

Way back, we had discussed Legends of the Super-Heroes with Batman (Adam West) providing the link to his original show. Then came a discussion if mini-series should qualify. Since there were shows with just one or two episodes aired (Public Morals comes to mind) mini series got ruled in. Only the Legends listing never appeared on the stats list, the Grid or the Key - something I have noticed just now.

I still say rule them in. It would be slightly ridiculous to leave something like, for example, Band of Brothers or Centennial out just because they did a pre-declared and limited number of episodes.

With 26 hours, 'Centennial' would rank as a series in today's market! It had more hours than a lot of shows listed as series. Man, I'd love to see that come out on dvd! What a great series! And I wish there was a way to nab it for your Westphallian version of the TV Universe....
