No matter how good it is, sooner or later, every Prime Time show dies. The "Cancelled Shows" library is a prestigious cemetery inside of which Channel 101's most successful combatants are laid to eternal rest.

"Here he come. From the planet Kryptar..." And thus begins the Aaron Moles send-up of Turkish cinema, Return to Supermans. Starring Willy Roberts as "Supermen," this show blasted onto the screen at Cinespace in October 2007 and assured itself a place in Prime Time with a brilliantly faithful recreation of a hilarious genre. For Truth or Justice. The America way.

Created by Ryan Nagata
After the success of Your Magic Touched Me and Your Magic Touched Me: Nights, there were a lot of people figuring that Ryan Nagata needed the lovable Shizuki Thronburg to crack prime time again. But those people are morons... and wrong. In The Forgotten Classics, host Jeff Davis takes us back in time through the hidden cinematic gems you've never seen.

Created by Drew Hancock
The existence of Channel 101 led to a show on VH-1 called Acceptable.TV. Director/Actor Drew Hancock wrote a mini-show for Acceptable.TV about the dangers of swords, but VH-1 hated it so it was never produced. Now, in the post-ATV era, Hancock has brought the show to the Channel 101 audience to great success. Sit back and enjoy as Trip Fisk warns you of the dangers of owning swords, and always remember: Don't Fucking Touch Swords.

Created by Morgan Locke, Rod Hassler
Morgan Locke and Rod Hassler team up with Channel 101 badass Derek Mears to create a slick, intense, action-packed show about a man looking for vengeance. Really, no, seriously, the action in this show is amazing. Typically, less comedic shows don't pull the votes at Channel 101, but Morgan and company had the balls to try. Unfortunately, the show ended on it's second episode at a competitive Halloween screening.

Created by Wade Randolph
After a long stint of failed and top failed pilots, Wade Randolph cracked back into Prime Time with a mesh of live-action & cartoon reminiscent of Roger Rabbit or perhaps Cool World. When the judge who created a town for murderers is framed for murder and sent to Murder Town, he becomes Sheriff. Lasting four episodes (Almost half the 2007 season), the show was an excellent and fun edition to the line-up, but audience interest dried up in October and the show was shut down along with the competitive screenings for the year.

A charming hostage-situation show that strutted into Prime Time on a shocking gimmick, Not Without My Fucking Country lasted for two months in the 2007 season of Channel 101, falling out in August and proving the long-standing myth that dudes kissing are more powerful than shit jokes.

Created by Dan Harmon, JD Ryznar
Too long has the Cinespace audience held all the power at Channel101. Too long have the internet masses gone unnoticed and marginalized. Well, March 2007 had turned the tables, with a revolutionary new program: ChooseYourOwnSelectAVision.TV. Creators Dan Harmon and JD Ryznar, first in line to parody themselves, brought the power to the people with this exciting anthology show that overflowed with energy and interactivity. The show was cancelled in August 2007 when, in an interesting turn of events never before seen at Channel 101, the fifth episode did not make it to the screening on time.

Created by Tyler Spiers, Mike Rose
Mike Rose and Tyler Spiers, the masterminds behind Channel 101's longest running series (Classroom), claimed themselves another slot in Prime Time with a world imagined into existence by an eight-year old gay boy named Shannon. Having the horse sense to utilize the animation talents of frequent rejectees Craig Morris and Robert Potter, Planet Unicorn was a testament to the creator's abilities to utilize the Channel101 community to it's full potential. And the show exploded in viral popularity. YouTube fan films and frequent links all about the internet brought this Channel 101 show the kind of attention that hadn't been seen since Chad Vader. In an abrupt turn, the July 2007 audience cancelled Planet Unicorn's run, but maybe like Chad Vader the show will continue long beyond it's life span at 6356 Hollywood Blvd.
