What TV show that was canceled do you really miss?

[caty]

I miss "That's Life" about a 32 yr.old women,Lydia Delucca (Heather Paige Kent), who breaks off her engagement to go back to college. Her parents were played by Ellen Burstyn and Paul Sorvino. The network kept moving it to a different night, but I would find it and watch. Very disappointed when it got canceled. I don't watch that much on network TV because it's hard to find something good.

[Xipe Totec]

1. Hill Street Blues

I really miss that show.

[Gothic Sponge]

2. I miss The Honeymooners!

Why did they stop making them?

:silly:

[wryter2000]

3. Futurama

Funniest show on TV.

[4_Legs_Good]

11. Best TV show EVER!!!

I weep to this day and expect to weep every day until eternity passes away - even as I watch every episode about once a month.

Good news is it sounds more and more likely that some straight to DVD Futurama "movies" will be produced! :) :) :)

:party: :beer: :toast: :party:

david

[wryter2000]

159. Futurama movies?

Wow. Those are the only TV show remake movie I'm likely to watch.

Fox did everything they possibly could to kill Futurama, and they finally succeeded. :mad:

[4_Legs_Good]

160. Yeah apparently not even FOX can claim that the show wasn't a success

Here's some of the news on gotfuturama.com.

---------------------------------------
Good news, everyone?

Over the last week, several sources from within the animation business have indicated to us that there is renewed talk at FOX about bringing fresh Futurama content directly to DVD. We corroborated this with other sources close to the show before publishing the information.
---------------------------------------

This type of news from top people like David X. Cohen, Billy West, John DiMaggio, and even Groening has been circulating around, so chances are it's true.

Kinda shows that no matter how hard FOX tries to sink a show, the fans know quality and won't give up on it.

Let's hope!

:)

[WCGreen]

4. I remember that one as well

Mine is Joan of Arcadia....

I thought that was a pretty good show that spoke to a spirutality without embracing anyone particular religion.

Sure it was in the Judeo/Christian mode, you can't heve everythng, but it really talked about the little ways that spituality creeps into our everyday life's...

Yea, I know Amber Tambyn was tedious, but the rest of the cast was top notch....

I am just glad it lasted 2 years

[SmileyBoy]

5. Ren and Stimpy.

GAWD, I miss that show!!!

[unsavedtrash]

6. Farscape and Andromeda

[xmas74]

48. I loved Farscape!

[Liberalynn]

76. I loved Andromeda too.

Really hope Kevin, Laura, Gordon, and Lisa will all find work on new series.

I understand Lexa has already joined the Stargate franchise.

[xmas74]

88. I enjoyed Andromeda but loved Farscape.

I know that Ben Browder and Claudia Black from FS will now be on Stargate starting Friday but I'm not as sure about what happened to some of the Andromeda group.

[deutsey]

7. TV Nation from early '90s

Even at the time I was amazed it was aired on mainstream TV, however briefly it was.

[4_Legs_Good]

13. TV Nation was fantastic

The Awful Truth didn't quite measure up.

Good choice!

david

[blondeatlast]

43. And on Fox, no less. nt

[deutsey]

154. Yeah, I remember being very confused by that brief relationship

[khashka]

8. Freaks and Geeks, American Gothic, My So Called Life

America has no taste. All the good stuff gets canned.

Khash.

[Sean Reynolds]

12. Same...except American Gothic.

I never saw that one.

[MuseRider]

19. I was just going

to post American Gothic. What a totally cool show. I was truly sad when that show was canceled and I usually never really care that much.

[khashka]

24. Wasn't Gary Cole just the sexiest thang?

I suppose lusting after the devil isn't very politically correct but who could help themselves?

Khash.

[MuseRider]

45. Uhhh YES!

I have always liked to look at him and he is good in so many roles. I loved Lucas Black as well. It was just a well written, well acted, totally creepy weird show and I knew it would not last very long because it was not easy to get.

[XemaSab]

73. Yummah!

n/t

[trebizond]

21. Freaks and Geeks and American Gothic--cut down in their prime

;(

[MsUnderstood]

28. Once and Again (sela ward) and Joan of Arcadia

Some other goodies along the line of the dramatic--I don't know why they can't keep a good drama but let actions like Walker, Texas Ranger go on way past prime.

[sakabatou]

139. Joan was getting really far off the original storyline...

After Joan's collapse after she found out she was biten by a tick, I just couldn't watch it anymore...

[ScreamingMeemie]

114. Freaks and Geeks was the brainchild of someone I went to high school

with (Chippewa Valley). It was...to the lockers...exactly how it was. I miss it a lot because for a little while, I could be 16 again. :hi:

[trackfan]

187. Agree 100% on Freaks and Geeks

We have the set on DVD and watch them all the time.

[DeposeTheBoyKing]

9. "Boston Public"

Wish it'd come out on DVD.

[aeolian]

186. That would be one powerful DVD, packed with powerful episodes

from the most powerful series ever to air on the power-hour network fox (powerful!)

Powerful writers, writing powerful stories. It's the most powerful episode ever. Next: Boston Public.

[LanternWaste]

10. Homefront, Once and Again, thirtysomething, Freaks and Geeks

Homefront
Once and Again
thirtysomething
Freaks and Geeks

I'm a sap for personality-based night-time soaps... lol

[xultar]

14. FARSCAPE!, The Chronicle, The Invisible Man, First Wave!

[Bullwinkle925]

15. HOMEFRONT, HOMEFRONT, HOMEFRONT!!

on edit: Also, "I'll Fly Away" & "Picket Fences".

[LanternWaste]

18. Right there with ya on Homefront, pal.

Right there with ya on Homefront, pal.

Not even out on DVD :(

[Bullwinkle925]

37. I know - dammit - I keep looking for it to no avail - YET!

[bigwillq]

26. Homefront was one of my sister's

favorite shows ever.
So was American Dreams and Joan of Arcadia.
She's had a tough year.:cry:

[Bullwinkle925]

38. Yes, it's hard to lose the programs that you look forward to seeing.

Speaking of sisters, I also miss "Sisters". WAAAHHHHHH.

[bigwillq]

42. That actually was a good show

My mom and her three sisters would watch the show (sometimes over the phone) b/c they picked out which character they were.

[Bullwinkle925]

47. Yeah - if I ever get a cat - I think I'm going to name it 'Stinkerbelle'.

[xmas74]

49. Another Homefront fan!

I felt so left up in the air when they cancelled it. Totally p*ssed me off.

[Bullwinkle925]

134. Yes

It was one of those programs that drew us all together as a family to watch it.
We were so disappointed when it was cancelled. Still miss it.

[xmas74]

136. So do I.

I can remember watching it w/ a group of friends every week. That was our night-our girls night-to be able to get away from everything else, make really fatty or salty or sweet foods (like danger pudding) and get out our hankies or sometimes just cheer (especially when the British bride who married Charlie got her comeuppence. I really hated her).

[Bullwinkle925]

172. I know - she was very opportunistic and selfish.

I keep hoping this will come out on DVD.

[xmas74]

182. I hope so too.

Maybe I need to start writing a few letters soon.

[Bullwinkle925]

184. Yup

BTW - Please check out my posts regarding there is something you can do to help our country.


Thanks

[xmas74]

189. Will do!

There are so many posts on here that I don't always see every one of them.
Thanks for the heads up!

[PinkTiger]

16. American Dreams

It was canceled. Now we will never know what happened.

[ThoughtCriminal]

17. I'll second Futurama

A quick check reveals that in EVERY parallel universe in which Futurama was NOT cancelled, Al Gore is still President - even the one where everybody wears cowboy hats.

[4_Legs_Good]

30. You know, you live in the universe but you never do these things

until someone comes to visit.

20. CopRock.

Just kidding. :silly:

[Blue Belle]

192. Oops! Wrong spot to post!

[JimmyJazz]

22. SOAP.

:D

[xmas74]

50. I admit it-I liked Soap too.

I hated the way that they let it end-in a cliffhanger no less!

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

23. The Hathaways

It was my favorite TV series growing up in the early 60's. Starring Jack Weston and Peggy Cass, it was about Walter and Elinor Hathaway, a man and wife who adopted a family of performing chimpanzees and treated them like their own children. It ran on ABC and when it was cancelled there was a major nationwide protest to try to keep it on the air. I loved that show even though it was stupidly ridiculous but hilariously funny.

[caty]

39. I remember that show.

Sometimes protesting helped keep a show on the air. "Cagney and Lacy" got canceled twice and brought back because of the huge protest.

[Chichiri]

25. Wonderfalls

[caty]

41. I watched "Wonderfalls" a couple of times

and planned to keep watching. Sometimes they don't seem to give a good show a chance.

[Ivan Sputnik]

110. Wonderfalls is out on DVD

All 13 episodes that were produced. (The network only broadcast four of them before pulling the plug.) It's been a hot seller on Amazon.

[caty]

115. Wow--thanks.

[Skarbrowe]

27. Carnivale (definitely an aquired taste) and for second..Futurama! nt

[maveric]

63. Was Carnivale outright cancelled? I knew the fundies were all up in arms

about it.

[LeftyDarthBrodie]

69. The contract wasn't renewed

is the language used, if I'm remembering correctly.

[maveric]

78. Damn Fundies!!!

I'll bet they had a hand in that. With the evil anti-christ as a Xtian preacher and all that.

[LeftyDarthBrodie]

85. I agree the Fundies are a problem

but never heard they had a hand in Carnivales downfall. I have a feeling this show flew far enough under the radar, never being a huge enough HBO hit ala The Sopranos or Sex and the City, to get that much protest.

I could be wrong and welcome being proven wrong if that is the case.

[Moochy]

107. Carnivale has packed up and left us

Carnivales director is making a comedy for showtime, for what it's worth. :shrug:

I too mourn the loss of Carnivale. Who knows what took place at Trinity test site ? :( That scene with Ben at white sands with the preacher was crazy. gave me the chills.

http://www.hbo.com/carnivale/behind/creating_the_scene/index.html

We'll never know :cry:

I bought my TiVo for this show specificially, but when it got cancelled I free'd up all the space the 13 episodes were taking in protest.

[ghostsofgiants]

92. Those were my two!

Carnivale was an absolutely amazing show. Really well made, creepy and weird as hell. My kind of show.

And Futurama was just goddamn hilarious.

[Skarbrowe]

152. Oops forgot the c in acquired..yep..HBO said Carnivale was too $$$$

expensive to make. That show was my absolute favorite. I would get chills every time I saw the opening sequence.

[ralps]

29. Farscape and Dark Angel

:hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :woohoo:

[Democracy White]

163. I miss Dark Angel

I wish it would come back on or at least a spin off of it. I wish that the directors or whomever kept to the original premise.

Dee

[progmom]

31. Freaks & Geeks

it broke my heart when it was cancelled. :cry:

[4_Legs_Good]

32. FUTURAMA, Firefly, Angel

Futurama far and away x 100,000,000,000,000,000,000

After that I really miss Angel (though I never watched it when it was on, only on DVD) and I think Firefly got shafted WAY too early.

Luckily the Firefly movie comes out in just a few months and hopefully someday they'll do an Angel/Buffy movie

david

[RC]

33. Alley McBeal

Analyzing Ally

Ally McBeal amuses and intrigues me. Not only because she is the main character in one of the most popular TV shows, and the show is written by one of my favorite screenwriters, David Kelley. It is also because of the psychologist in me. I know that at least one (TV) psychologist shares my bemusement. Here is a conversation between Ally and her therapist, Dr. Tracy (hilariously played by Tracy Alman):

Ally: "The real truth is, I probably don't wanna be too happy or content. 'Cause then what? I actually like the quest, the search. That's the fun. The more lost you are the more you have to look forward to. Whadda know, I'm having a great time, and I don't even know it."

Dr. Tracy: "Ally, with you, everything is about you. But that's ok. Narcissism is a wonderful thing."

Ally: "It is?"

Dr. Tracy: "Yeah, for me. Nuts like you heat my pool."



http://psychology.about.com/library/weekly/aa020100a.htm

[nytemare]

81. I loved the mix of characters in that

That is a show that took some creativity to make. Not too many shows recently like that. They all seem to follow the same pattern. That is boring, to me.

[elehhhhna]

34. SCTV

[Burma Jones]

35. Dead Like Me

[liss681]

36. Invader Zim

[sakabatou]

140. Zim was canceled?

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!

[liss681]

147. Zim rules!

[edbermac]

40. The Munsters

I thought Fred Gwynne was the funniest guy on the planet, and Yvonne DeCarlo was pretty hot...

[Ikonoklast]

138. Is that Bill Frist and his family?

Kinda looks like him.

[edbermac]

158. Naw, the Frists are a lot uglier...

[dr.zoidberg]

44. Futurerama and the Tick.

:cry:

[wallwriter]

102. Spoon!!

[Left Is Write]

46. Ellery Queen.

Of course, the stars are both dead, so bringing it back would be tough anyway.

[wallwriter]

51. Hello! "Sports Night!"

[SOteric]

59. Yep. Me too.

Great show.

[wildeyed]

77. I loved that show.

After they canceled that, I completely gave up on network TV.

[Dave Sund]

99. Definitely

Thankfully "The West Wing" filled the void left by the departure of Sports Night.

[GOPisEvil]

126. D'oh!

I said the same thing down below. Sorkin rules!

[Blue Belle]

194. Definitely Sports Night.

[Deja Q]

52. Firefly, Futurama, Blake's 7, Doctor Who, Sapphire & Steel

Okay, Dr Who in the UK is a hot property - but it feels more like Buffy, rather...

[AllegroRondo]

165. The US Dr Who with Paul McGann (sp?)

they did one TV movie, then declined to make the series. Sliders got picked up in its place.

[AllegroRondo]

167. Blakes 7

I thought the show had a great 4 season run, and wrapped up everything nicely at the end. They really couldnt carry on, as all the main characters died.

[bigwillq]

53. Boomtown, Sports Night

My So-Called Life

[Wapsie B]

54. Homicide: Life On the Street

[maveric]

65. My alltime favorite show. Great writing, acting and characters.

Very dark and revealing. LOVED that one!

[Wapsie B]

71. I loved the cast

and the story lines. I wish NBC would've given it a stable time slot like ABC gave NYPD. It was hard for Homicide to get an audience unless you were really addicted to the show. And I was addicted.

[maveric]

75. Frank Pembleton was the most compelling character in TV history, IMHO.

Braugher was brilliant in that role. Yaphet Kotto, Kyle Secor, Daniel Baldwin... great cast.
Did you happen to catch the follow-up TV movie that essentially ended the series?
The final scene was classic. Last line: "What do you think this is, Heaven?"

[Wapsie B]

86. Yes I did.

With Kotto, Daniel Baldwin, & John Polito playing cards, waiting for an empty chair to be filled. The movie was very nice indeed. Braugher was great. His portrayal of Frank Pembleton was masterful. With ever other cop show with someone in the box I keep looking for Braugher to pop in and show 'em how it's done. Clarke Johnson was excellent as well. The movie was a nice finale to an outstanding show. It was too bad it had to end.

[KatyaR]

87. I just watched that last weekend--

I loved Homicide but didn't realize how much I missed it until I watched the movie again. I'm now getting the DVDs from Netflix to watch the entire series again. The one episode about the guy who was trapped inbetween a subway car and the platform still gives me chills just thinking about it.

I also miss WKRP ("With God as my witness, I thought turkeys could fly!"), Northern Exposure (great characters), and Sports Night.

Of course, I still miss the X-Files, but it was probably a good thing it ended when it did . . . .

PS-I just joined the DU Activists Corps! :woohoo:

[Theres-a]

118. Watching all the netflix "Homicides"

We haven't gotten to the subway episode yet,I remember it was very good.

[Theres-a]

116. Yes!!!

I've been watching all the dvds from netflix,then it's going to end all over again.

[FLSurfer]

55. I'll agree with the Futurama and Farscape fans

But has anyone ever seen Greg the Bunny?
Super funny show starred Eugene Levy and Seth Green.

It was only on for one year, maybe the funniest show ever.

[dhinojosa]

56. Lone Gunmen, American Gothic, and I Love Lucy

Death is no fucking excuse for Lucille Ball, how dare she.

[Darth_Kitten]

57. Third Watch.

And Boomtown, I was getting into that. :)

[lumberingbear]

58. Nero Wolfe

[trebizond]

60. Dark Skies

[Lydia Leftcoast]

169. A short-lived and underrated show

I liked it especially because I remember the early 1960s, and they captured the era well.

[YellowRubberDuckie]

61. Buffy and Angel..

Damn Joss needs SOMETHING on tv...he's going to waste!!
Duckie

[4_Legs_Good]

82. I don't think Buffy was canceled, but I could be wrong

I think it just ran it's course. Personally I thought the last season sucked pretty bad. Sarah Michelle Ghellar just didn't care anymore. All the preaching - feh!

Angel, on the other hand, was canceled outright, and it was a crying shame. That show just kept getting better and better (minus season 4 which was mostly bad - I hated Connor).

I agree that Wheddon needs something to work on. Maybe we'll get lucky and they'll bring Firefly back if the movie is a success.

david

[YellowRubberDuckie]

90. Buffy was cancelled because SMG cancelled it.

And I always thought they could have gotten someone better to play Connor.
Duckie

[4_Legs_Good]

94. You know, you're right. I think the show could have continued w/o Buffy

It woulda made the name problematic, but by the end, she was the least interesting character. Willow, Xander, Dawn, Giles, Anya were all interesting enough characters to keep the show going. Hell, if you need a slayer, bring back Faith full time; she was the best!

I agree also on Connor. It didn't have to be that bad. I thought up to Season 3, Cordy just got better and better to the point where she was sizzling, but then in season 4 she was obviously pregnant and her acting suffered horribly (and understandably). She coulda come back strong though, once they got rid of Connor. And adding Spike to the Angel mix was the best choice they ever made. By the end (of Buffy) he was far and away my favorite character.

david

[YellowRubberDuckie]

97. They were supposed to do a Giles series on the BBC...

Wonder if they still will. God I love Anthony Stewart Head.
Duckie

[4_Legs_Good]

101. I heard about that - It was supposed to be called "The Council"

or something, right? It woulda been cool. You gotta assume that Giles woulda had to start the whole thing from scratch as all the other members got blown up, so there are a lot of possibilities there.

Let's hope!

david

[sakabatou]

142. Delete

[Trigger Hippie]

156. I miss Buffy and Angel too.

Angel was so kick ass by season five; I wish they hadn't killed the show like that. Angel and Spike together is always a good time.

I agree about Connor. He sucked big time. But hey, maybe they'll make a movie with the whole gang. That would be great. And if SMG doesn't wanna do it, bring Faith in. She kicked ass. :)

[I Have A Dream]

171. Yeah, these are two shows that I really miss. n/t

[KittyWampus]

62. Northern Exposure, Kung Fu

[Initech]

64. I miss Titus

But thankfully, the first two seasons are out on DVD today!

*runs to Best Buy*

[GalleryGod]

66. Brooklyn Bridge

Good show. Good cast. Nice era: Late 50's Brooklyn.

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

67. My So-Called Life + Freaks and Geeks

nt

[NMMNG]

153. Yeah, I liked My So-called Life

All that teen angst and stuff. It was really good and got cancelled way too soon. :(

[flamingyouth]

68. I really liked "That's Life" too - especially the first season

I'm going to miss "Joan of Arcadia" and "Judging Amy." I also miss "John Doe" and "Wonderfalls" (which was barely on, but I have all the episodes on DVD).

[Liberalynn]

70. Hercules The Legendary Journeys & Profiler

I loved HerK and his little buddy Iolaus. Not to mention Ares, (RIP: New Zealand's Kevin Smith)Aphrodite, Zeus, Hera, Auto. It wasn't rocket science but it was a heck of a lot of fun, and a nice break from reality.


Could never get into Xena. I was a HerK girl all the way. By the way I spell it with a K for Kevin Sorbo. That was his fans way to diffrentiate him from the others who had previously played the role, and the mythological written version.

HTLJ had the right mix of humor, drama, and I loved that New Zealand scenery. I do have all five seasons on DVD and I also hope to get season 6 soon.

Also I only discovered Profiler repeats in recent years welll after it was cancelled but I love that show and think NBC cancelled it way too early. Considering the amount of shows that have tried to rip it off since, I think NBC misjudged it's staying power. I especially miss John Grant, although I do love his portrayer's other work as well. I do have the DVD's.

I also loved and miss Remington Steele and WKRP! I am really sad that WKRP probably will not make it to DVD because of high cost of music rights. x(

72. Get Christie Love!

[XemaSab]

74. Twin Peaks and American Gothic

Does anyone know if AG is out on DVD? Has anyone illegally put all the episodes on the 'net?? :-D

'Cause, like, that would be cool. :-D

[MuseRider]

89. I have looked

and there was talk briefly about doing a movie. If anyone finds it on DVD I would love to know. I recorded them after they were canceled, they played them all one more time but somebody in my house recorded over them. Shhheeeeeesh!

[XemaSab]

93. That's painful

That show didn't last very long, but it was certainly different. In a good way.

[Lilith Velkor]

79. Alien Nation.

80. The Tom Green Show

[GreenPartyVoter]

83. Quantum Leap, Freaks n Geeks, China Beach, M*A*S*H, Xena and Herc, X-

Files

[GreenPartyVoter]

127. Oh, and Joan of Arcadia

[ikojo]

84. X Files but not the X Files that was

cancelled, the X Files with David Duchovny. I hope there will be a movie, but the longer time between the series and a new movie the less likely it appears.

[4_Legs_Good]

95. There NEEDS to be a 2nd X-files movie

I keep hearing rumors that it's about to happen, but then it never seems to.

Watching the last episode, I kept thinking, this is still good and fresh, why is it being canceled? Then I remembered that Duchovny was no longer a regular, and the Scully/Mulder relationship is what made the show great.

david

[ikojo]

96. Just imagine the conspiracy they could have

made out of the current (mis)administration! Oy vey, talk about a story arc!

[Lisa]

124. although, the thought of an evil shadow government ...

... with a nest of conspiracies against its own citizenry doesn't have that same delicious feeling of horror as back in, say, 1994.

[RummyTheDummy]

91. Airwolf!

All these years later and Im STILL OUTRAGED.

[Democrats_win]

98. The Watergate Hearings

[distantearlywarning]

100. My So-Called Life

I'm way too old for this show now, but I thought it was the greatest when I was younger. I was so bummed when they cancelled it. I still maintain that it was the best show about high school anybody ever made.

[blonndee]

125. I totally agree! I so miss that show.

MSCL was the closest thing to what MY HS experience really looked like. Forget 90210.

[Adenoid_Hynkel]

132. it was really annoying when it caught on with the mtv reruns

too late to save it from cancellation. the execs at viacom didn't want mtv saving a show on a competitor and waited until it was dead before promoting the hell out of it

[sniffa]

103. andy richter controLs the universe

:cry:

that show was genius!

[Kathleen04]

130. I posted the same thing, sniffa

Post 129. :)

104. hollywood babylon w/ tony curtis...

they had look a like actors playing out some wiked stuff.
i remember they had vivien leigh and jamed dean both going to the same bar for a bit of the rough. it was really cheesey.

[sendero]

105. Grounded for Life and Titus

and I don't care who knows :)

[libnnc]

106. Cagney & Lacey

I still have a crush on Sharon Gless. :evilgrin:

that show got this little lesbian through puberty

[Orsino]

108. Enterprise. Buffy. Hill Street. n/t

[Doctor_J]

109. Grand, EZ Streets

as different as two shows can get. Both extremely well written and acted.

[peekaloo]

111. not canceled (yet) just displaced: Boston Legal

DENNY CRANE dammit!

[SCRUBDASHRUB]

112. American Dreams

[snacker]

113. Yes, and Ed too. nt

[caty]

117. "Ed" wasn't canceled.

Thomas Cavanagh, who played Ed and produced the show, decided to end it. If he wanted out, why couldn't they have continued the show without him? Named the show after the town or something. I liked all the characters on that show. :shrug:

[ok_cpu]

120. Great Show

But I think it had run its course.

[Vektor]

119. "Flying Blind" with Tea Leone

It was on in 1992-93, only lasted 22 episodes.

I LOVED IT.

[giant_robot]

180. Was that the one that used a Talking Heads or David Byrne song

as the theme? If so, that was pretty funny. Tea Leone actually has quite a gift for comedy.

[Chicken Girl]

121. I forgot the title - used to be on the WB

A show about a blonde girl who used to be fat, one of her brothers is a gangster and the other one is a fundie, she has a couple of twin sisters (I think), there was something weird about her parents but I forgot what it was, they all lived in Rhode Island...

Anyone know what I'm talking about? I think it lasted one season.

OH! - "Maybe It's Me"?

[Dukkha]

122. Futurama, Dead Like Me, Dark Angel, & Get A Life

though Dark Angel got weak when they brought in those stupid mutant furries.

I liked it..I'm a fan of Andy Richter from Late Night w/ Conan O'Brien..it was funny show and they did an episode w/ Conan as a guest right before it got cancelled.

Stupid Fox. :(

[Rob H.]

183. Yes! Glad I'm not the only one who misses it!

Now if Fox would get of its lazy butt and release it on DVD....

[Adenoid_Hynkel]

131. ben stiller show

garofalo, stiller, and odenkirk -sure, they all went on to do great things, but FOX screwed us out of what could have been the greatest sketch show since the original SNL cast

[Lannes]

133. "Doctor Doctor" with Matt Frewer

Was a very funny show in the 80s.

[CanuckAmok]

135. Harsh Realm

I was making a fucking fortune on that show, plus...

I hated doing it at the time, but as soon as it was cancelled, I thought "hey, what happens? How does it all end?!"

[CanuckAmok]

137. Not cancelled, per se, but "The Kingdom"

Lars von Trier wrote and directed this 9+ hour epic TV miniseries for Danish TV. It's about a haunted hospital, and the second part ended with an insane cliffhanger ending.

One of the lead actors died before shooting was scheduled to begin for the third and final installment, and von Trier decided that he would not make the last part without all the original caset members.

So the last five hours were never filmed, and von Trier has never revealed how it was to conclude.

141. the simpsons

ok, not cancelled, but i'd like the show back the way it was-the most clever thing on tv with top notch wrting

not the celebrity-riddled shell of it's former self that exists on sunday nights these days

[sakabatou]

143. Lets see...

Big O, Project A-Ko (Not sure about that), Tenchi Muyo (No, not GXP), Batman: the Animated Series, The Adventures of Superman, Animaniacs. Futurama

[Maddy McCall]

144. Carnivale...and Six Feet Under is in its last season.

After 6FU goes, so does HBO in my house. I have no interest in anything else on HBO.

[barb162]

145. Dallas ,because of what JR would do next

[Lilyhoney]

[spacelady]

148. That's My Bush! from Comedy Central

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

149. Ramar Of The Jungle and Captain Gallant Of The Foreign Legion

Two GREAT TV series of the early to mid 1950's. Along with Superman, Wild Bill Hickock, and The Lone Ranger, they were my favorites. I also liked Captain Winslow Of The U.S. Coast Guard.

[Hardrada]

150. Captain Kangaroo and Crusader Rabbit

[bicentennial_baby]

151. Small Wonder

:crazy:

[BlondieK143]

155. Once and Again, Freaks and Geeks, Daria.

Man, I really miss Daria! :D

[Deep13]

157. Mystery Science Theater

[Shell Beau]

161. I really liked Just Shoot Me when it came on

Thursday nights. They moved it to some other night and I don't think it survived. It was funny.

[graywarrior]

162. Vengeance Unlimited with Michael Madsen

[leftofthedial]

164. Gunsmoke

[Texasgal]

166. Seinfeld

I really loved that show. :(

[Democracy White]

168. Dark Angel, Alien Nation, ST: Voyager, and Futurama

Seems like all the good shows get the ax. I looooved Dark Angel's first season but the 2nd season was hokey and that is what I think killed it.

[Divameow77]

170. It wasn't REALLY canceled but..

"SEX IN THE CITY", I cried when that show ended, but at least I have it all on DVD.

Oh "Any Day Now" on Lifetime, that was a really good show

[long_green]

173. NewsRadio

Although after the death of Phil Hartman, it was never and could never be the same. Best ensemble sit com since "Taxi."

[Initech]

185. I never realized how good this show was until I got the DVD

RIP Phil Hartman.

[edbermac]

174. My Mother The Car

A classic...

[mnmoderatedem]

[givemebackmycountry]

181. Sherman Oaks

Classic!

[Initech]

188. Titus is awesome

I just bought the first season DVD and am planning on having a marathon tonight.

[GirlinContempt]

190. Spaced and Black Books

but apparently Spaced is gonna do another season sometime

[Codeblue]

191. Too many

"Sliders" for one. "The Adventures of Brisco County Jr." for another. "Firefly" for another. All great shows that I loved but gone now...all because they were too "different" for mainstream audiences. Except "Sliders." That was around for a while. Until finally even Jerry O'Connell gave up on it. I think it went downhill after John Rhys-Davies left it.

[Blue Belle]

193. Taxi

I can't believe they canceled that show.

[Kathryn STone]

195. here's a few:

1. Duck Man
2. Oz (can you say it's been "cancelled?)
3. Chef (Garreth Blackstock the Chef at the Chateau Anglais toooooo funny)
That's enough don't want to hog the show...
