What's an example of a TV show that came out at before its time, or just at a bad time? (lemm.ee)

Space Rangers. Really cool show from the early 90s, good cast, lots of fun, cancelled after 6 episodes. The US just really wasn't doing much SF back in the day, and especially things that weren't franchises.

I'll also plug Quark, a 70s science fiction comedy about the adventures of the crew of an interstellar garbage scow. It had it's flaws and parts are dated, but they lampooned a bunch of major SF entities of the time.
