Shows that ended too soon

[SeanDMan]

Yeah, I was just watching some syndicated TV this morning and got to thinking; some shows were really never given a shot. The topic about Angel kind of fits here in terms of a show that was cancelled before it ended it's story archs, and I know there are more. This isn't the first time this has been discussed, but I can't think of the last time, so I demand you discuss.

Dead Like Me, such a great show and it only gets 2 seasons? Ugh

[Olive the other Jiberdeer]

Clone. High. USA.

[Fitzy]

Arrested Development, John Doe, Jeremiah, Street Time, Lucky, and probably much more that I cannot think of right now.

[Styk]

i liked Sports Night (which was kinda like what Studio 60 is, but was of a sports news show... for those who don't know...)...

other than that there might be more i'm missing (other than ones that were said...)

[CKN]

[Guest Ringo Sparkles]

Twin Peaks, Popular, Firefly, Angel and Freaks And Geeks.

Spygroove, A really funny cartoon on MTV that only got one season.

Sifl and Olly, a genius show, also on MTV, that only got two seasons.

Teachers...4 Series, and Series 4 wasn't 'proper' Teachers, but watching Series 4 back (Now the original anger of them killing off Brian and Kurt has gone) I realise there's so much they could have done with the Ewan, Damien and Ben combination (The Homosexual Awareness episode is one of the Teachers greats, right up there with the 'Disabled Kurt' and 'Brian's Gay' episodes).

But at least it went out on a high note, with it still being incredibly funny, unlike lots of (mostly) American comedies that seem to run for season upon season and get worse and worse over time.

I just miss Teachers.

Over There and Wanted. I enjoyed both and was looking forward to second seasons

Oh, and also The Murder Game on BBC. They did one series and I loved it. I swear they said it was coming back but nope

How many seasons did Jeremiah get. It hasn't finished in Aus yet and it's an awesome show, but its a late night slot, and if it ends before it's actually over, I'm not sure I want to see the rest.

SportsNight wins this thread

[Buford Ripley]

How many seasons did SportsNight get? I remember the first time I watched it on abc1 and it was all kinds of awesome.
