Hi, I'm a new member.
There was a short-lived TV series called EZ Streets (www.imdb.com/title/tt0115161/). It was created by future Oscar winner Paul Haggis and was extremely critically acclaimed. Time Magazine named it the best show of the year. It premiered on CBS in fall 1996. Ratings were so bad that it was yanked after only two episodes. It was relaunched the following spring. Six more episodes were shown before it was yanked again. There was supposedly one more planned episode. That episode aired in a few markets.
I have copies of scripts for two episodes that were supposed to air after the final 9th episode that were supposedly never filmed. They are called "Icarus Ascending" and "My Enemy's Enemy." They would've been the 10th and 11th episodes.
IMDB lists those as actually being filmed, plus another episode that I had never previously heard of before it popped up on IMDB called "A Great or Little Thing." The trivia mentions that they aired in Italy. Now IMDB accepts user submissions, but this show is so obscure it seems strange that someone would make fake pages and write fake trivia for it.
A Google search of "EZ Streets" + "A Great of Little Thing" found a Russian website with a bio of one of the show's writers that mentions it:

An IMDB poster claimed to have met actor Saviero Guerra, who had a recurring part on the show, and he said that 14 episodes had been filmed:

TV Guide listed the supposedly never filmed episode "Icarus Ascending." Though the link no longer works:

EZ Streets got a DVD release in 2006. There were only 3 episodes on the DVD though.
