What shows got canceled before they had a chance....

[Squire James]

I say the makers of Cowboy Bebop "cancelled" their show a bit early, since Spike was my least-favorite character anyway. I'd say the other characters deserved closure too, though I guess they'd object to getting the "closure" Spike got!

Meh! Order anime from Japan. Skip the American distributors. They only excel in bastardizing anime.

That would be the movie "Play Nice" (1992) for those that are interested.

I love IMDB - you can find anything.

Glad to know there are other Robey fans out there. She was a great under rated and under used beauty. Redheads were not in in those benighted decades alas.

Now on topic

Gone too soon

Pirates of Dark water

Vr 5

Boomtown

and who could forget Dilbert -- that was a perfectly delishous and sedious little cartoon. Sniff I miss it

I wish I could include tru calling as I like Eliza Dushku but that so was teh suxxor I'm afraid

Shows I miss:

Pirates of Dark Water
Critic
Dilbert

The Huntress, a short lived season on USA. It was campy and silly, but I liked the red-haired mother-and-daughter plays bounty hunter.

Roar, this never had a chance. I vaguely remember the show getting a tad too religious imagery (the main villian, of course, was the Roman soldier who pierced Jesus).


I need to withdraw my geek cred. I haven't seen half of these shows mentioned

It kind of sounded to me like he was talking about the Cowboy Bebop movie.

Thanks to those who mentioned Dilbert and The Critic. At least they're still on Comedy Central sometimes.

American Gothic - "There's someone at the door."
Crusade - I was so looking forward to this show, and TNT had to screw it up from day one. Gah. ... and, hey, same star as American Gothic
Nowhere Man - I really, really liked the first few episodes of this. Then it was consigned to "we'll show it whenever we feel like it" status, and I missed most of the rest. There's no plans to bring it out on DVD, either.

Sure, if you're still living in the 80's.

 

[Vigilance]

I have to go with:

Firefly
Space: Above and Beyond (I loved that show)
Homicide (sure it lasted like 5 years, but that's a show that should still be on TODAY).

Dilbert was excellent, the DVD set was most worth it. They managed to actually take the strip and expand the humor in ways that you could never, ever fit into a comic strip. Unfortunately, it was on UPN, where quality goes to die.

They did more in 30 episodes than many shows did in two or three times that many episodes.
