Can anyone help me remeber the name of a show?
I remember a tv show that came out around the time of herman's head.  It was about these random people that some how survived the end of the world.  They was all living in this house in the desert.   Has any heard of this show?

RE: Can anyone help me remeber the name of a show?
The only thing that comes to mind even remotely like that is the mini-series The Stand, based on the Stephen King novel, and which - like Herman's Head - aired in the early '90s.  A plague, generated by an accidental spill of a biological warfare germ at a military base, kills off most of the Earth's population and several of the survivors feel "called" to travel across the states and gather in an old lady's house.  It's in a cornfield, not a desert, but there ARE desert settings a-plenty in the show.  Could that be it?

If not, then tell us more about it.  Recall which channel it was?  Network or cable channel?  Drama? Comedy?  Hour-long or half-hour?  Why do you associate it with Herman's Head?  What did the "random people" look like? What were their names?  Which stars played them?  etc.

No thats not it.  This was a sitcom comedy, It had something to do with a nuclear weapon going of during a parade. I think a kids remote control car ran into it.

Yeah, it was called "Oops".

Ran in the post-Married With Children slot on Fox Sundays at 9:30.

IIRC, it lasted maybe 6 episodes.

Here's a wiki page about it

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Woops!

They say it's "Woops". I remember it being "Oops". But that was about 20 years ago, so I may be wrong.

Also, I can't believe no one else remembers anything about this show. Not even the TV Shows on DVD guru.

I guess we won't be seeing this one on DVD if I'm the only person that remembers it. I may buy a lot of TV on DVD, but if I'm the only buyer, no company will make their money back.

I'd buy it, I remember it and I would love to see it again but nobody liked it then, the reviews were terrible, they didn't get it and so it was crushed.

Thats the one, ....   I going to see i can find some clips on youtube or Hulu. 

It looks like it fell victim to fox's cancel everything, just when it was getting good policy.

Well, the Sunday night at 9:30 slot was essentially Fox's death slot of the early 90s.

I don't remember any show that stayed there more than a season or two at most. Woops, Drexel's Class, Herman's Head, The George Carlin Show, Top of the Heap...

Wow, I don't remember this show at all. I remember all the ones Peter mentioned. The one I always wish they had given more of a chance to was Get A Life.
