Cancelled Catastrophes
This is a list of TV shows that may or may not be spotlighted on a new webseries I'm developing called "Cancelled Catastrophes."
The premise is that I watch the pilot episode of a series that was cancelled in its first season, and if I actually like it, I start a separate vlog detailing my thoughts on the rest of the series.
