This is easy. I like Family Guy, and Futurama. But my all-time favorite cancelled show is Sportsnight. I have the entire series on DVD. It won three Emmy's before it was cancelled. I have always set it had the absolute best writing of any show I've watched. It also had a great cast, Robert Gillaume (Benson!), Felicity Huffman who's on that Showtime series now, and the guy from Six Feet Under whose name escapes me just at the moment. Also William H. Macy was on the cast for a while. Amazing show.
"Anyone want to participate in the sport of kings?"
"We're gonna race horses?"
"No we're going to play poker."
"Poker's not the sport of kings."
"What is?"
"Racing horses."
"Then what's poker the sport of?"
"It's the sport of people who play poker."
And
"You should know that just because I'm looking at you while you're speaking, it doesn't necesarily mean that I'm actually listening to or caring about what you have to say. It's just something I do to be polite."
