Show #1
The movie took in over $70 million on just over a $5 million budget. It's considered a classic and still viewed and parodied on television today. The show didn't have quite as much luck. It lasted just 13 episodes, one of which was burned off in the summer, almost 8 months after the penultimate episode aired. And you really know it's bad when the creator of the movie didn't want his name attached to the show. Many considered the show's failure to have to do with the change in the lead actor, and thus to characterization of the titular character. It was soon replaced by a new show, which blossomed in the ratings. But every star on Friends had to start somewhere.
ANSWER: Ferris Bueller
Show #2
This TV show was actually the second adaptation of the movie of the same name. With an all-new cast, the show never got to air in the regular season. Instead, it was pushed to summer, and despite respectable, stable ratings that were higher than some renewed shows, it was canceled with its total episodes aired in the single digits.
ANSWER: Uncle Buck
Show #3
This was the first show that ever aired on a certain network. As tough as it is to start up a network, the fact that it was able to air a show from an established, massively popular franchise helped give it initial success. The show ran for seven seasons, though it left that time slot for good by its third season. Now, another outlet is using the franchise to try to boost awareness/viewership.
