TV shows cancelled after one season generally fall victim to low ratings, which could be due to a lack of advertising or a lack of storyline, but when a show is cancelled after one episode it’s probably for the best.
Because when a pilot episode crashes and burns it saves the viewing audience from being taken on a trip to the bad side of Television Town, where the Hitlers and the Osbournes live.
ScreenRant has compiled a list of 10 TV Shows Cancelled After One Episode, which is all you need to see to know these shows were doomed before they made it on the air.
I remember one show that should have been canceled after if not during its first episode: Crusade, a Babylon 5 spin-off.

What about Rowan and Martin's "Turn-On?" Did "Three Lbs" have a second airing? "The Black Donnallys" had the best pilot show I had ever seen. Myself and the rest of America turned off the first regular episode as humor turned to gore after 20 minutes .
