9 Biggest Aaron Spelling Flops
The TV producer was so prolific that for each of his hit series was an also-ran that didn’t make it past Season 1. (https://www.tvinsider.com/list/aaron-spelling-flops/#show9)
9 Kindred: The Embraced
FOX 1996
Kindred: The Embraced might be the best Spelling production based on a supernatural role-playing game… by default. Inspired by the tabletop RPG Vampire: The Masquerade, the eight-episode followed the leader of a vampire society in San Francisco. Supernatural shows were hot in the late 1990s, but Fox defanged this one after eight episodes.
And I (as well as several members here) thought that it was very unfortunate and short-sighted that FOX axed it because it was quite good. But alas...
(All Souls is another one that had major potential.)
