Ark II ran for 15 episodes in 1976. In a post-apocalyptic 25th century, a team of 4 jump-suited scientists including a teenager and a chimpanzee roam the barren landscape in an RV that also launches an ATV. And there's a jetpack. Their mission: to reintroduce Civilization to the filthy, savage, backwards populace. The episodes end with a voiceover log entry summarizing the heavy-handed morality lesson of the week. It's a goofy time-capsule, I suppose, but I didn't find it that entertaining. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_lj8z28Mshw

Fresno, the 1986 CBS 5-part mini-series about a wealthy family and their raisin empire in Fresno, CA. A lot of recognizable faces in the cast. I remember watching this on TV and not getting that it's satire. Not sure how it holds up. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AmBpVWVM2y8

1997 gave us Over the Top, which was cancelled after 3 episodes. Tim Curry stars as a desperate past-his-prime actor who crashes with his ex-wife (Annie Potts) and her daughter. Steve Carell also plays their foreign chef or manservant or something. Tim Curry is his marvelous self, but Steve Carell's character is very cringy. Overall, it's not the worst sitcom I've seen, but even despite Tim Curry, I wasn't interested in watching more than a few episodes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x31SbbeVfb4
