Really liking this series so far. The one show name-checked that i've really been trying to find is Costello(weird choice since it was cancelled a whole year before Family Guy even premiered but whatever).
Girls Club is definitely a piece of lost media i'm interested in seeking out.
Andy Richter Controls the Universe and Undeclared both got complete series DVD releases. Undeclared actually had one episode changed for broadcast, it's original name was "Full Bluntal Nugity" and featured Ted Nugent and had the main character getting into a confrontation with him but FOX wasn't a fan of Nugent's views(ironic considering they would heavily feature him later on)so the episode was re-shot with a new title, though the original version is on DVD.
Yeah, there were a few odd choices as targets. Action was one I directly called out in part 1, having aired in the early part of Family Guy’s second season. Get Real, which is later down Peter’s list, ALSO aired in the 1999-2000 season. They really should not have been there. There are also some that also were canceled during spring 2002, meaning they’re not what Family Guy was shooed away for either.
And yeah, physical media releases, I wasn’t quite sure how to bring it up because of the streaming premise. I hoped people would infer that if I don’t mention unaired episodes that they got out in a reasonable amount of time (short enough that it doesn’t have to be noted how long it took to actually get out there)
