The nostalgia thread: list your fav cancelled/ended TV shows


Recommended Posts

The Office - Light hearted, funny show however once Steve Carell left, it wasn't as great.

 

Totally forgot about that. I agree, Steve was brilliant.

Haha I don't like this thread. It lists amazing shows that didn't make it >.<

 

I think all mine are listed above: Firefly, Dollhouse (woo Joss Whedon!), Chuck, Leverage. I would say ST:U, but it was just...bad. they had a great chance, but they turned it into a drama.

 

One one new one, i didn't mind Tera Nova...it was ok, I could have kept watching it =P

Defying Gravity (2009) - IMDB

104581-g3.jpg

My friend introduced me to that last year. I thought it was quite good, it was a shame it got cancelled. And from reading around there doesn't seem to be any hope for it to be revived. :(

The 3 F's:

 

Firefly

Farscape

Futurama

 

@Davo: I hated what happened to Babylon 5. Had they not been jerked around it would have ended the way it was supposed to with the Shadow War coming to the close. Season 5's episodes were intended to exist in the first place, but interspersed between the war episodes. :(

 

A few Fox shows that I would have liked to have seen more of: Early Edition and Keen Eddie...

Stargate Universe - I was way behind on this and managed to watch the first 2 seasons pretty much back to back (recorded on my Tivo) then went to see if I could find Season 3 to find out it never happened, It destroyed me :(

Another one for Firefly.

 

Yea, Battlestar Galactica could have gone on for a few more seasons, enjoyed that one a lot.

 

Futurama. 

 

Terra Nova, not that it was a great show (it was ok), but sucked that they canceled it after a cliffhanger.

 

My wife still mourns the loss of Moonlight.

Scrubs. Still watch it on E4 and Comedy Central.

 

I'm seeing Zach Braff (as well as Donald Fiason and Jim Parsons) next summer for his London Premiere of Wish I was Here (his kickstarter movie for anybody who doesn't know ;)). Can't wait to see Brown Bear and Vanilla Bear! 

Only seasons 1-8. Season 9 was meh.

Shows i liked but were cancelled early (1 or 2 seasons) :
 
Firefly
Flash Forward
Threshold
Dark Angel
Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles

Invasion

Jericho

 

I'll include Veronica Mars too. A 4th season would have been nice.

Season 9 shouldn't have been that. I think it would have done much better had it of been say "Scrubs: Young Doctors" on whatever they would have called it. Would have pretty much been detached, however they just carried on with it as the story went on which wasn't the best way to probably go about it.

 

Can't knock season 1-8 though, they were wicked!

Well they are doing a Veronica Mars Movie if that helps ease the pain a little :)

Well 9 years have passed since the beginning of Veronica Mars. I enjoyed the show when i was 27 and was just getting out of shool and starting to work for real (university). Not sure i'll enjoy the movie that much now that i'm 36 and school is just a far souvenir.

 

Also i wonder how it's gonna work. Kristen Bell is what ? 33  or something ? She's not a lot younger that me.

 

They'll have to drop the whole school and naive teen detective thing. Not sure a CSI : Veronica Mars gonna work.

Terminator: TSCC

Ugly Americans

Flashforward (none of the above three were 'favourites', but it would have been nice to see another series).

Futurama (definitely a favourite, can't believe it's been cancelled again).
