Because you demanded it, CANCELED TOO SOON is back! This is the podcast where William Bibbiani and Witney Seibold review TV shows that lasted only one season or less, and we're kicking off a new wave of episodes with a forgotten EPIX series starring Ben Kingsley, Jacki Weaver, Jimmi Simpson, Luis Guzman, and Terry O'Quinn, which plays like a Coen Brothers crime story that just won't stop getting out of control.

Canceled Too Soon #223 | Damien (2016)


Two decades after they tried to turn THE OMEN into an X-FILES knockoff, Lifetime and A&E tried to make it something else. Something vague. Something canceled. 

But was DAMIEN, starring Barbara Hershey (and others) CANCELED TOO SOON? William Bibbiani and Witney Seibold uncover the secret story of how the antichrist was awkwardly stalked for a little while as SCARYTOBER - or rather, SCARYVEMBER - concludes!

Canceled Too Soon #222 | The Omen (1995)


If you loved THE OMEN, you probably won't like THE OMEN! The Oscar-winning horror movie about the antichrist got transformed into a failed TV pilot about a demon that jumps from body to body and tries to ruin a St. Patrick's Day parade by unleashing a flesh-eating virus! 

It's got a great cast - including William Sadler, Brett Cullen and Norman Lloyd - and a cult hit director (Jack Sholder, THE HIDDEN) - so maybe THE OMEN really was... CANCELED TOO SOON? 

William Bibbiani and Witney Seibold are about to find out, as SCARYTOBER continues!

Canceled Too Soon #219 | Lincoln Rhyme: Hunt for the Bone Collector (2020)


Move over, Denzel Washington and Angelina Jolie! It's time for Russell Hornsby and Arielle Kebbel to do some bone collecting! 

The latest adaptation of Jeffrey Deaver's hit novel THE BONE COLLECTOR, previously turned into a serial killer thriller starring Washington and Jolie in the 1990s, is an NBC series stretched into a weekly procedural. 

But the real mystery is, was LINCOLN RHYME: HUNT FOR THE BONE COLLECTOR actually... CANCELED TOO SOON? 

William Bibbiani and Witney Seibold are about to find out as SUDDENLY LAST SEASON continues!
