Any show that you liked watching, but got cancelled?

I don't watch much TV really so there's not a lot of series I got into. But a while back, I started watching the show "The Family" and it was really interesting in a good way!

The plot of the show was great and the actors were perfect for the parts they played. Before the season finale, they announced that the show was going to get cancelled, so I wasn't pleased because the last episode left on such a cliffhanger. They left with so many questions to ask, but who knows if we'll actually know what happens since it got cancelled.

Any shows you watched and enjoyed, but ended up getting cancelled?

Quantum Leaps ending was suppose to be a season final end rather than a series final - great

One that comes to mind is "Men of a Certain Age"... it was a comedy-drama with Ray Romano in it. I really enjoyed the first 2 seasons, but it got cancelled after that. Shame.

Dead like Me. Only lasted two seasons. I would have liked that one to continue.

Jericho and Firefly

V

stargate universe.

it started out rough but by season 2 it was getting very good. it was canned too quickly :(.

firefly goes without saying of course really.

John from Cincinnati

... I mean what the hell was that all about, the world will never know.

I agree with all of these. I was just really getting in to V in particular when it got canceled. I would add Star Trek ToS and Farscape to the list.

Used to love the Human Target a few years back. Lasted only two seasons. That was a great great show with good acting. Like a modern day A team.

Also there was a show called Arthur(or Camelot) that I liked. Hate that it was canceled.

Other shows that I liked and were canceled ran their course.

Firefly.

In before Freaks and Geeks.......

Most shows that I like that are off the air have had proper endings though. The Wire had a proper ending but there were some rumors going around that they would do 6th season focusing on hispanics in the community which would have been nice. Guess they were just rumors though. I'll say Bordertown too since that got the axe a few days ago. Human Target wasn't bad either, though I could live without it....

Jericho, Firefly, V, Stargate Universe and Atlantis, Top Gear (Clarkson, May Hammond version). Dollhouse, Eureka.

Freaks and Geeks, Firefly, My so-called life, Gravity, Party Down

Firefly, Stargate Universe, & Eureka.

Invader Zim and The Muppets.

Agent Carter (Hopefully Netflix scoops it up)

Firefly ( at least it got a movie to close the series)

Farscape (at least it got a mini series to close the series)

Stargate Universe

Constantine

Dark Angel

Eureka, Mission Hill, The Oblongs.

Firefly

Almost human

Terminator sarah connor chronicles

There are certainly more that I can't think of right now.

Pushing Daisies. Forever and ever will it be missed.

Firefly

W.I.T.C.H

The Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes

Gargoyles

Better off ted

Not sure if it really got canceled but I'm going with Samurai Jack...

The Avengers cartoon: Didn't that get like 3-4 seasons? or no?

Nashville....

My Name is Earl, Arrested Development, Community, Happy Endings

@tocool340: It's supposed to be coming back with a new season on Toonami sometime this year. The original creator is returning as well.

Well i am hoping to see " The Brink " get another season, i found it hilarious. At times these shows only get one season. Another was " Eli Stone", i though the show had lots of potential, but they canned it after the first season.

The one that I mentioned only had two seasons and then it was cancelled to make way for Avengers Assemble, which does not share continuity with Earth's Mightiest Heroes.

So it did get canceled... I had a feeling that would happen as soon as the Kermit/Denise drama started and I stopped watching. That's too bad.

Terminator: The Sarah Conner Chronicles

Revolution

Angel - so annoying that one

Stalker after only 1 season

Human Target (2010)

Alphas (2011)

The Leftovers. Actually a third and last season is coming and I don't know how they can keep coming out with more ideas and stories for it.

I'd add Deadwood and Rome to my previous list as well.

X-Men (TV Series 1992–1997)

I'm not sure if this was canceled like the other shows I'm going to mention. The ending was kind of abrupt. This show did have a decent amount of episodes. It's the longest X-men cartoon out of all of them that have ever aired as far as I know. There were still quite a few mutants not really featured in this series.

X-Men: Evolution (TV Series 2000–2003)

Before this series was canceled, we were most likely going to get some really awesome sagas in the near future. This series was cool because it had some mutants that weren't in the series from the 1990's.

Wolverine and the X-Men (TV Series 2008– )

This series was leading up to season 2 but due to cancellation there's all that build up that is sadly lost. This is an interesting show to check out if you're an X-Men fan.

Plenty over the years, since I always watched a lot of different type of shows. Some of the most memorable are

Chuck
Reaper
The Black Donnelly's
Buffy and Angel
Futurama
Celebrity Death Match (anyone remember that?)
Fringe
Arrested Development (before netflix saved it)
Greg the Bunny
Dead Like Me

flashfoward

Ooft
That was for the better
Those last two seasons were horrendous

Star Trek. It was way before my time but wished it had gone on for more than 3 seasons.

I didn't watch any of it after NBC cancelled it and it went to Yahoo. If it's the "Yahoo" seasons you're referring to, that is.

All these 90s Nickelodeon shows

That was a great show. I feel the same, shame it was canned. Gave perspective of fatherhood/hubandship from a different perspective from most dramas.

OT: Scrubs and Sealab 2020.

Terminator the sarah connor chronicles
Terra Nova
Lie to me
The Human target
The Chicago Code
Animorphs
Digimon Fusion( don't think season 3 is coming)
Yugioh GX( Season 4 or something never came I don't think)

pretty much after Fringe ended I stopped watching Fox Network. So probably has been a while since I seen anything on TV.

Yeah I really enjoyed it. It was good to see Romano in a bit more of a serious role. He did pretty good I thought.

There were a few decent shows over the years that got cancelled; a few of the ones mentioned here I'd say I agree with.

But quite honestly there are enough good shows that have existed and had very good tenures, I feel like it more than makes up for a lot of those "could have beens..."

Every couple of years, a show comes along that I really get into and get invested in, and usually that is my show for a while. And then it ends, and I kind of get overwhelmed by the whole experience and then need time away from TV for a while. And eventually, I hear a lot about some other show and check it out, and the cycle kind of repeats.

I guess all good things have their end. At least those shows that really made their mark will remain a part of your fond memories.

Shows that I really wanted more of:

Gravity (expensive to produce show that got cut way short)
Ascension (wasn't specifically planned as a multiple seasons but didn't resolve the story)
Damien (cut short after one season. Maybe it'll get picked up)
The Muppets (reboot)
Limitless (not renewed on CBS but being shopped around)
Constantine (cut short from a full first season)
Almost Human (good but expensive, Fox axed it as they do most sci-fi)
Young Justice (Damnit! Best DC cartoon ever!)
Flashforward (decent sci-fi but with no story resolution)
Firefly (no need for words)
Stargate Universe (the only of the Stargate series that got cut short)
Better Off Ted (Brilliantly funny sitcom died after two season)
Andy Richter Controls the Universe (same as above but after one season)
Rubicon (excellent "slow burn" spy/espionage show that emphasized realism in how the Intelligence works over typical spy stories)
Carnivale (HBO show that was one of the best I had ever seen, but only got 2 out of 5 planned seasons)
Outcasts (UK series like Tera Nova without the stupid dinosaurs)
Utopia (UK conspiracy series)
Survivors (UK series where a virus wipes out most of the human race. Ended on cliffhanger at the end of series 2)
You, Me, and the Apocalypse (UK series, recently cancelled after one seasons)
Spy (UK comedy. Hilarious)
The Fades (UK tv series about angels on earth who can see the dead)
Torchwood (not exactly cancelled but not coming back either)

Shows that I wanted more of but at least got a decent ending:

Angel (five seasons ain't bad)
X-Files (wasn't that great by the end but hopeful for a "season 11" revival again)
Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip

Shows that weren't all that great but by the end they were good enough that I'd keep watching them but they never got any sort of story resolutions:

Alphas (not the best show but left on a serious cliffhanger)
The 4400 (show was just OK but really needed an ending)
The Event (same as above)
V (2009) (same as above)
Threshold (mediocre sci-fi but with a great cast and a lot of future promise that was never fulfilled)
Drive (a cross between Cannonball Run and Lost)
Sarah Connor Chronicles (really dumb in the beginning, but started getting interesting right when they cut it)
