34 NEW SHOWS OF FALL TV 1990 

Randy Newman rocking out in a blacked out studio while people are toe tapping for the theme of a show called "Cop Rock" is the most 1990 moment ever.

Kudos for getting the long version of The fresh prince intro from the first episode!

I'm really impressed you were able to get the intros to some shows that only lasted a few episodes. What a cool time capsule they are.

Love the 90's graphics for Parker Lewis. Those triangles and wavy lines were everywhere back then.

The big winners that season were "Parker Lewis Can't Lose," "The Fresh Prince Of Bel-Air," "Beverly Hills, 90210," "Law and Order," "Evening Shade," and "America's Funniest People"! Thanks for uploading, RwDt09!

That Ferris Bueller show really needed a permanent day off. (That's ok, I'll show myself out...)

Man it's a shame about Luke Perry. He was in his prime here.

I don't know what's more hilarious. The fact that they made a show called "Cop Rock", or the fact that Randy Newman agreed to write and perform the theme song. AND appears in the credits! Just cops hangin' out in the studio. You know, as cops do lol.

The intro for The Family Man lasted longer than the show itself!

When Law and Order came up, I was like "Where the hell are Jerry Orbach and Sam Waterston?!?" - I had totally forgotten that they were not in the original cast.

I'm glad the new reboot of the flash paid homage to the old flash John Wesley shipp

Every tv theme of the 80s and early 90s had to have a saxophone lead by law

The actors in some of these forgotten shows are the kind of actors you get on Wish.

I miss that little moniker at the bottom "In Stereo Where Available"....

Evening Shade. RIP to Burt Reynolds.

Remembering the old series is fun enough, but it's even better to spot big names you'd completely forgotten about. Leonardo DiCaprio in Parenthood, and Jennifer Aniston in Ferris Bueller are a great start.

Parker Lewis Cant Lose. All time classic

Apparantly, everyone in 1990 drove a classic convertible.

"Get a Life" was my favorite show during its brief run

“Uncle Buck” looks like a skit making fun of itself, but sadly it is not.

It took two different installations of Uncle Buck before somebody figured out it didn't make such a great sitcom

How many freakin' tv series was Jeffrey Tambor in? No matter what decade I watch in this category his name makes an appearance!

Parker Lewis can't lose was a little bit ahead of its time, True colors probably had a chance if it had better writers

Some of these shows I would fall asleep by the end of the opening credits.

I had forgotten about Parker Lewis Can't Loose. I can't believe it was that long ago.

1990 I turned 10. This was when I really started getting into tv and watching more than cartoons

LOL!! I love this channel but, BOY !! some of these shows... CopRock!!! It wasn't a dream I had one night? Oh and Law and Order outlived them all!!! I was in my early 20's and don't remember alot of these shows. WOW!! I feel really old!! My kids would laugh at this!! Thanks for the memories.

I sure miss the Flash, I Iove that show:(

Law & Order? That show isn't going to last.

Who here still gets really excited whenever they hear the Law and Order theme, meaning there's a show coming on?

I remember hearing a lot of these from the living room tv from my bedroom because it was a school night and I had to be in bed :(

I loved Parker Lewis Can't Lose. You see that people? Lose not Loose. Loose means something else entirely.

After watching a few of these "New shows" videos, I'm amazed at the shear volume of failed TV shows. Failed and forgotten. After watching this video I had to ask myself "Did I even watch TV in 90-91? Because almost ALL of these were completely unknown to me.

If you took out the actors and titles, you could still identify the decade from the graphics. Shapes and shadows on every single font.

Earth Force. Lasted all of one episode. It was actually quite ahead of its time as a concept. Might have survived in syndication.

Ahh "America's Funniest Videos" The RU-vid of the 90s.

When Mr. Big was on Law & Order 💗

Loved the 90s Flash tv show. Too bad it only went 2 seasons....between getting moved around and constantly getting pre-empted for Gulf War coverage it's no surprise it didn't last. Cool seeing the current CW Flash paying homage to the 90s show including having 90s cast members appear. Kinda ironic that Parker Lewis, which was basically a rip off of Ferris Bueller (the movie), lasted longer than the actual Ferris Bueller show. Lol And it's rare getting to hear the extended version of Fresh Prince of Bel Air!

Awesome Channel. Thanks for taking the time to put these videos together. Could you do a compilation of Promos for all the CBS,NBC,ABC night at the movies? There are some weird movie choices over the decades.

Ah, Fall of 1990 where so many shows went to die. *sigh* The Flash was shafted so hard by CBS.

I can just imagine the excitement of these actors when they got a part on a TV show. Then, it's cancelled and they're never seen again.

Wow. Over My Dead Body with the great Edward Woodward. How did I miss this one? Wasn't even aware of the show. Thank you.

Getting this out of the way (because they're back to back) Parker Lewis > Ferris Bueller

Television theme music took a rockin' turn in 1989 and 1990. Gone were the soft jazz, easy listening ballads that sounded interchangeable. In were the loud upbeat themes that got your attention. Also shows were proud that they were in encoded in Dolby Surround now that almost all stations had finally upgraded to stereo sound.

Parker Lewis was a good show. Why anyone thought making a Ferris Bueller TV show (like 4 years after the movie came out) would be a good idea is anyone's guess. The Uncle Buck TV series sucked too.

Wow, Scott Weinger 1-2 years before Full House and Aladdin, Jenny von Oy a year before Blossom, Leonardo DiCaprio. And Parker Lewis! I loved that show!!

21:58 WIOU getting serious Sorkin vibes, look at all those “walk and talks”

Ferris Bueller and Uncle Buck should just stay as iconic movies

This is like peering into an alternate dimension, I love it.

"Lifestories" intro looks about 10 years behind the times in its production value.

I will say this.. Gregory Harrison, like Jack Scali, was given multiple TV projects.. but at least he had a hit with being on _Trapper John, M.D._ the previous decade.... Also.. the biting irony that, two decades later, _Parenthood_ was revived and had a multi year run on a network *notorious* for "fixing a show till it was broke" most likely leaves a bad taste in the mouth of those who were cast in the first try... Lastly... the most shocking thing about _The Fanelli Bosy_ is seeing BOTH Joe Pantoliano AND Christopher Meloni with full heads of hair at the same time.... *_SHOCKING_*

The first Aunt Viv rules! Ah, those early 90s graphic designs. Something's oddly nice about them.

Thirty years ago yet seemingly more like last month. Sometimes I will wonder of what use are these memories(?).

RIP Luke Perry

Wow, Get a Life was a weird and oddly fun show. I remember my wife loving this show a lot. She was crushed when it went off the air.

Hey, there's this actor in "Parenthood" named Leonardo DiCaprio. I wondered what happened to him. LOL 😁

Wow, 1990, it was my first time witnessing the change of a decade. Well, I was alive in 1980, I was just an infant so I don't remember that. And I must also add, that Fox was still a new network then. It seems like the shows debuting on the top 3 networks were stuck in the 80s, while the ones debuting on Fox seemed new and exciting, in line with the new decade.

My god! They aired The Fanelli Boys in Argentina back in 1991! I knew that show existed but could't figure out the name... Thank you for the upload.

Ronnie mil sap did a lot more TV Themes than I thought. Cool series you made here .

Thank you I find your videos enjoyable

You have John Hughes to thank for all these series (serieses?) about high school students in the '90s.

It's odd how the Ferris Bueller ripoff show was somehow better than the actual Ferris Bueller show.

It's Kind of Sad for any Show that Doesn't get Picked up, or Doesn't get Past the First Season once you think of all the Hard work. First the Struggle to Shoot a Pilot (Prob was Exciting for all the Cast, and they Probably told they're Whole Families) and then thinking it may be a Hit...

" Get A Life " is hilarious if you can find it and need a good laugh watch it!!!!

Yeah. The one for "Ferris Bueller" actually made me cry...That show stank to high HELL

holy crap: Lenny Clark had a show? no surprise that it’s set in Boston, but still a shock that he got one!

I completely forgot about True Colors! Hilarious show. Wish it'd get released on DVD!

I had literally *just* opened up the panel to comment "man, Randy Newman must have been busy during the late 80s/early 90s doing every TV theme with male vocals, while that "Parenthood" intro that's either him or a soundalike...and he *immediately* pops up in the Cop Rock intro right after. Lol oh, you, Randy Newman.

I’ve been watching a bunch of these tv compilations, and man, they were trying so hard to foist Jay Thomas on us. I think we ultimately made the right decision.

Of these, I remember watching the Flash (loved that show), Parker Lewis and Fresh Prince obviously, True Colors (though I'd completely forgotten about that show), evening shade, Good Grief, Goin Places (lol kept waiting for it to show up in other videos as I couldn't recall the name but knew the intro sequence by heart and man... Stacy Keanon ♥), Get a life, AFP, and definitely Haywire! (I'll have to seek out some eps of it and see what other skits I remember besides Billy Quan).

Parker Lewis was awesomeness!! Loved that show.

I'm crying at the 90210 intro! Such memories!

Johnny Galecki from Big Bang Theory was in something in 1990. He's been around the block.

They used the song from Oliver and Company in the series The Fanell Boys, or was the song used first as a theme song?

The Flash could not get a break. Originally conceived of as a cash grab hot off the success of "Batman", the network soon found themselves switching it on the schedule so many times, because CBS had also landed the rights for broadcast baseball. Whatever base the show could have had, was undone when you found yourself flipping through the TV guide looking for it on any night. So it came as no surprise when CBS outright cancelled it in the early spring of 1991. It wasn't a great show by any means, but it was an entertaining police procedural mixed with superhero action, and late 80's flair. The production design was gorgeous, mixing Batman's dreary cityscape with a flashy neon color palette similar to that of Dick Tracy. Serious enough to work the drama, but not overly serious for a show featuring a man dressed up in what looked like a red velvet scuba suit.

I only recognize about four shows. I started college that Fall. Loved 90210. Watched Fresh Prince. Get A Life was good but maybe because of the REM theme song. I was a huge REM fan back then.

1. Holy crap. I never realized this until it's all played back one after another like this, but geez at the number of shows made from film concepts in 1990 (although I had to check Wikipedia to see if American Dreamer was even based on the film, which it isn't...which actually seems kind of weird). 2. I also didn't realize until seeing them all like this how fascinated we suddenly seemed about upper class livelihood. I mean, there had been shows like Silver Spoons in the past, but here it seems like a trend and I'd love to know why. 3. I'm gonna just say it: I really miss the clothes and hairstyles girls were wearing around this time. Maybe it's that I was born at the butt end of '74 and so was just entering high school at this time, I don't know. Normally, fashion is something about which I couldn't give two fracks, but this era... Then again, I'm also an absolute weirdo who finds comfortably-fitting blue jeans and a sweater sexy, sooo... 4. While I remember that Ferris Bueller show sucking just _all_ the balls, I didn't realize just how little anything in that show's credits would give anyone the impression it was the same character that Broderick played.

Did they try to adapt every 80's movie to a TV show?

I think out of all of these, The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air is the most impactful. Who can't sing that theme song and Will Smith is a Hollywood superstar.

Also, Randy Newman was apparently very busy in 1990!

I love how you can tell which were on TGIF on ABC

Not anyone in the entire comment section who remembers Married People. I loved that show.

Cop Rock! The absolute worst idea ever put on television!

Ronny Cox was in Cop Rock? Please tell me footage exists of Dick Jones from Robocop singing.

Wendy Schaal at 29:02... things are getting too spicy for the pepper!

28:37 when Howie Mandel actually had hair.

Funny to see Howie Mandel touch hands with someone!

"The fanelli boys" used "why should i worry" from "Oliver and company".

There was a family show back about this time that I vaguely recall; no names and no title, but I recall that the closing credits of the show showed a daytime aerial fly-over of a drive in movie theater... any recall of this would be greatly appreciated.

RIP Luke Perry and say a few prayers for Shannen Doherty

Most of these shows would have made it through the pilot episode If only they'd thought to use more shadow fonts in the opening credits.

What would be interesting is a breakdown on how many episodes each series ran.

14:09 Doesn't the Parenthood theme sound eerily similar to another Randy Neuman song?

Can't believe Beverly Hills 90219 is from 1990. No way! So these youngsters are in theirs 40s at least by now.

Huh, never noticed the third and fourth verses of the Fresh Prince song were cut from the intro later.

That 90210 never had a chance lol

Ah "Get A Life". The greatest show everrrr......!!!!!!!

YO HOMES! SMELL YA LATER!

Cop Rock; it's hard to even explain that to people :) Thanks for these vids you've put together!

So many guitar solos and saxophones
