TEEN ANGEL Was a TGIF Flop About a Boy Who Dies Eating a Hamburger

TEEN ANGEL ran during the TGIF programming block on ABC from September 1997 to February 1998 for only seventeen episodes. It was… not a hit. The show was about a teenage boy who dies from eating an old hamburger and then becomes his best friend’s guardian angel.
It sounds like a two-minute comedy skit, but it’s not. It’s a real show.
(Though Teen Angel didn’t fare quite as bad as the similar show, You Wish, which only aired seven of its thirteen episodes. You Wish? I wish both of these shows were available on streaming.)
***
Upcoming Videos: There are a lot actively in the works in various stages of development.
Filmed: A quick video about a minor internet hoax, a nice video about a classic 90s Disney cartoon, a video about a cult classic franchise that is going to be a massive editing project.
Almost Ready to Film: Recapping/reviewing a published book as well as the fanfic it came from (and it’s NOT Fifty Shades), and I’m almost done with my notes on a SUPER WEIRD early 2000s reality show. Both of these will also be HUGE editing projects.
I need to figure out how to balance actually making progress on these bigger videos that take a lot of time with also still creating shorter content to post regularly. Eeeeeee.
Um... I also just reached 1,000 subscribers. Which is insane to me. Please know that I am both grateful and terrified of disappointing each and every one of you.

Wow TIL Teen Angel only ran for 17 episodes. I really liked the show as an 8 year old but for some reason I thought it went on for way longer.

This was such a strange show, but I remember it being one of my favorites at the time, along with You Wish. To an eleven year old, the show's usage of mortality and the afterlife seemed like much higher concepts than they do now. I remember being a little gobsmacked that Jerry Van Dyke went right from playing the grandpa on this show to playing a completely different grandpa on You Wish after Teen Angel was cancelled without missing a beat. ABC really wanted to keep him under contract, I guess. I didn't mind because I was also a huge Coach fan. (I was a weird little eleven year old.)

Teen Angel was a show my brothers and I watched over and over and genuinely liked. It was popular enough in the UK/Ireland for it to be repeated all the that I could watch it over and over. We did have Disney Channel which wasn't that common at the time. I watched it enough to remember loads of plots, quotes, and jokes, more than other shows bizarrely.

There was another show in the 80s called Jennifer Slept Here. Same premise, but the angel was a blond woman who could only be seen by a teen boy. I liked it. Also, interesting comment you made about the type of strange songs popular in the late 5Os, early 60s. I'm thinking those are the years that babies born during and immediately following WW2 would be turning into young adults. The first generation after so many young lives around the world were cut short in war.

Definitely remember watching this show. Also you wish. Both weren't great but I still watched them... I think there was a weird episode where Steve was working at a burger joint and the theme was something about being generous I guess and Steve gave out free refills of fries as well as soda which turned out to be super popular and made the business lots of money so they were happy with it .... even back then I was like... no... that would never happen in North America....

I must have taken the 1995-1996 season off from watching TGIF because I remember watching this show and You Wish. I also watched Full House, Dinosaurs, Boy Meets World, Sabrina the Teenage Witch, Family Matters, and Step by Step. But I don't remember Aliens in the Family. I remember recording the entire TGIF block on my VCR, but I began doing that in early 1997.

I loved this show when it was on, along with Sabrina the Teenage Witch. Did not care for You Wish, and Boy Meets World was never really my cup of tea either (plus it was the odd, or should I say normal one out in this lineup). Don't know if Teen Angel would hold up as well as Sabrina did, but I would be interested in watching it again.

That looks... bad. I was actually humming the song "Teen Angel" through most of this video, not sure why I know it, but I do. (at least the melody and chorus, such as it is) The 50s record execs might have been trying to protect the virtue of their audience by warning them away from driving around with the opposite sex after dark. Not sure what the late 90s ABC execs were trying to accomplish with this, though. Probably just needed something to intersperse with ads for pizza and sneakers. ...and your subscriber level is OVER ONE THOUSAND!!!

Weirdly, I kept humming “Angel of the Morning” when I was working on this. Which I think is a song about an affair. (It seems like very few angel-themed songs are particularly upbeat. Except for the one by Shaggy. Of course.)
