Flops that I remember well (or not so well)
by Hezekiah Allen Taylor

Misfits of Science had Courtney Cox
somewhere between the Boss
and Friends

Riptide wasn't exactly a flop
but no one freakin' remembers it
except me and Perry King
and maybe Joe Penny
but he went on to Jake and the Fatman
and a lot of bad TV movies co-starring
Melissa Gilbert or that 30-year veteran
of All My Children who will play
a sexpot until she's incontinent or dead

Voyagers starred John Eric Hexim
who later blew his brains out
on the set of Cover Girl
while trying to demonstrate
the use of blanks, inaccurately
I assume
