Sargeman 08-12-2004 12:30 PM

I think all of mine have been posted already. But here are some:

Wonder Years(they finished it after it wasn't picked up for another year.)
My So Called Life
Aqua Teen Hunger Force
Family Guy
Married with Children
The Tick
Ren & Stimpy (although the few that were shown on Spike TV, just didn't make sense for it being the first network for men. Too many I'm the pitcher you're the catcher overtones.)

gorilla 08-15-2004 07:33 PM

Family Guy
Futurama
Freaks and Geeks
Andy Richter controls the universe
God, the people in charge of Fox are assholes

pan6467 08-15-2004 07:57 PM

Fuckin Fox never gave Married With Children the proper ending, yes it was time for the show to go but they needed a proper ending.

Wings was hilarious and deserved another year or 2 or at least a cheesy reunion show.

Third Rock From the Sun was ingenious and original and had one of the best casts ever.

And Finally quite possibly my favorite '80's show NIGHT COURT...... this is definately a show that noone respected but was hilarious as Hell and had an awesome cast. It had a great run even if the idiots at NBC and the viewers didn't realize it.

Hell Thursday nights in the 80's on NBC were fan-fucking-tastic, (Cosby, Family Ties, Cheers, Night Court/Wings, Hill Street Blues/LA Law), we may never see a blockbuster night like that again on TV.

Firefly

Touching Evil

Pellaz 08-20-2004 04:11 PM

Just for the record, Aqua Teen Hunger Force isn't cancelled to the best of my knowledge. I'm thinking the "Tune in for the last episode of ATHF this Sunday. Then do it again every Sunday." and "ATHF is so TOTALY canceled" ad campaigns sparked this...

My votes definately go to Farscape and Firefly. They both deserved to respectively finish up and tell the whole story more than any show I can think of, and both were screwed over by their networks in dirty and underhanded ways.

maleficent 08-21-2004 05:28 PM

Gotta go with Freaks and Geeks - -been watching the DVDs this weekend, what an awesome soundtrack

And Sports Night, though the laugh track from season one drives me nuts- I don't remember that from the series but there it is plain as day on the DVDs

Confederate 08-21-2004 05:38 PM

I would have to put my vote in for Futurama

Grancey 08-24-2004 10:32 AM

The Guardian
Once and Again

Willravel 08-25-2004 11:08 PM

I'm really sad to see that someone enjoyed fastlane. Oh well, to each they're own. Family Guy is returning with new episodes, and if Futurama sees similar DVD sales, it has a chance as well. I thought Babylon 5 kinda ruined itself during season 5. I miss Zathros! I also miss: Airwolf, Automan (sidekick was Curser, got the points), The Adventures of Briscow County Jr. (the cowboy Bruce Cambell series), Beyond 2000 (the original series, not the new one), Deep Space Nine, Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman (just kidding), Green Hornet, The Mantis, Mork and Mindy, NOW AND AGAIN (probably my favorite), the Pretender, and Wild On! with Brooke Burke.
Oh, before I forget, thank you Confederate for the hytpnotoad. Now I can't stop reading your post.

the_beanster 09-12-2004 10:44 AM

Here goes,
 
Family Guy
Mystery Science Theater 3000
Freaks and Geeks
Quantum Leap

Paradise Lost 09-12-2004 11:09 AM

The only two shows I'm really sad about that ever got cancelled were the Critic and
Dilbert, (Maybe Duckman). Just freakin awesome cartoons that never had a chance in a
world of freakin bad cartoons.

Willravel 09-12-2004 11:49 AM

Dude, Family Guy is COMING BACK. It's not cancelled anymore. Therefore, it is no longer cancelled. Therefore, you don't need to put it on the list.

Horrendous 09-12-2004 12:44 PM

firefly (they're supposedly makin' a movie, serendity, eh?)
and that old tv show about vampires, kindred the embraced, or something like that

SiNai 09-12-2004 04:00 PM

The Angry Beavers.

Obtuse 09-12-2004 04:18 PM

Farscape.

Unlike anything else on TV. I couldn't believe they cancelled it without finishing the story. Can't wait for the mini-series next month, hopefully it will provide some closure.

Mephisto2 09-12-2004 05:17 PM

One word.

Futurama.


Well, actually two. I never liked Family Guy and am happy it's gone. :-)

Mr Mephisto

Homey_V 09-12-2004 06:39 PM

The Tick
Earthworm Jim
Family Guy (Mmmmm redundancy)
Futurama
Freakazoid
Animaniacs
And of course, my all time favourite show
Transformers (The original not the new anime bullshit)

09-12-2004 07:46 PM

Get Real (it was on for one season and Im sure no one else even watched it, hence the cancellation)
Once and Again

Other than that, I'm good with everything else.

powerclown 09-12-2004 08:25 PM

The Frugal Gourmet
(so shoot me...)

Mephisto2 09-12-2004 08:41 PM

Oh yeah, I forgot.

The Iron Chef.

Draconis 09-14-2004 04:47 AM

Anybody else remember 3 South on MTV.

"Hey there's broken glass stuck in my feet"

"Maybe that's because you were throwing bottles at the wall earlier."

"What are you talking about? Those bottles didn't have broken glass in them."

radioguy 09-14-2004 02:28 PM

Cupid

It was a short lived, hour long show where Jeremy Pitven tried to set people up in his bar/restaurant. I think it was on 5-6 years ago.

dmt767s 09-15-2004 09:08 PM

Futurama-I have all 4 DVD volumes, watching V.4 right now, freaking great
Family Guy-I have both DVD sets, wicked awesome
SportsNight-Just great
Playmakers-Because anything ESPN does that isn't actual sports coverage is easy to make fun of
Undergrads-Comedy Central has 1AM showings once in a while, very good
In Living Color-I miss Homie the Clown

tspikes51 09-15-2004 09:13 PM

Family Guy, even though it is making a return, and Rocko's Modern Life. Even though it was on a kid's network, it had brilliantly concieved comical value for adults.

There are a few mentioned already such as Family Guy and Futurama. I second those, and can't wait for early next year for the new Family Guy eps.

VR5 is another show that cancelled after only one season - I don't know how many people watched it but I really really dug that show.

I'm not going to count anime because typically they have a predetermined life, episode wise, but I'd love to see new eps of Cowboy Bebop and/or Trigun. Of course, with Bebop they'd have to be predating the final episode, but still... That show rocks.

MageB420666 09-16-2004 12:27 PM

Family Guy
Futurama
Rocko's Modern Life
Star Trek Next Generation, Deep Space Nine, Voyager
The Muppet Show

I dunno. Spike has come back from some pretty serious injuries. We've seen him 'die' pretty often actually.
-Balad of Fallen Angels: shot and thrown out the window
-Toys in the Attic: bitten by strange creature
-Pupiter Jazz part 1: Shot
-Peroot Le Fou: blown up by a missile or some other sort of explosive device
-The Real Folk Blues part 2: beaten, stabbed with thrown knife, cut in the leg with a katanaa, and what looks like a severe katana strike to the cheest or stomach
-Knockin on Heavens Door (Cowbebop Movie): compound broken sternum, shot through the chest, thrown from a tram or monorail from pretty high up, beaten badly, and exposed to a nanotech virus

This dude won't die!
They could bring him back no problem and explore some of Spike's past.

Asuka{eve} 09-20-2004 08:26 PM

Cancelled tv show? For me its Firefly made by the guy who also did Buffy. Yep Joss Whedon. Its very good. SO much better than andromeda and farscape.

Seer666 09-24-2004 09:57 PM

The Tick. Both
Probe. Really old Scifi, only last like 3 or 4 shows. But SO well done. Asimov(sp?) help write it, I believe.
Cupid. got hooked, went ot bootcamp, gout out of boot camp, and it was gone.
The New Fantisy Island. WONDERFULY done. Same situation ad Cupid.
The Flash
Gargoyles
James Burke's Connections. If you haven't seen it, you missed one of the best history/science shows ever made.
Zim. No more need be said.
The Godzilla cartoon. The onld one from the early 80's. Used to get up every saterday morning to watch that.
Transformers. Prime was the MAN.
Feakazoid. Fucking funny as hell.
Animaniacs

I'm sure I think of more later, but that is all I can pull off the top of my head

Zar 09-26-2004 01:52 AM

Brisco County Jr., sigh. Bruce Campbell is a god.

auntflo5 09-26-2004 05:18 PM

tv funhouse.
why did it go away???? funny stuff... any show that has plastic dogs humping real animals tops my book, and gives me the hope for a brighter future for the children.

Seething 09-26-2004 06:14 PM

It seems kinda redundant, but I'll mention Futurama again. The one show I haven't seen anyone mention is John Doe. I loved that show, even if I'm the only one. Goddamn you, Fox!

2sheds 09-26-2004 07:30 PM

greg the bunny

Yeah, I watched it a lot, myself. I wasn't so happy to hear that he was coercing those boys into sex. He sure had some internesting shows. I have a few of his cookbooks, which are interesting reads, recipies aside.

Irishsean 09-29-2004 08:54 AM

High Mountain Rangers
