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

I don't watch nearly as much as I did in the 80's, but I did notice a few from others I'll mention again.

The Adventures Of Brisco County, Jr.
Freaks & Geeks
Manimal - came out after nightrider and the cheesy, talking motorcycle show.
American Gothic - Can't believe they cancelled this.
Misfits of Science - practically built for Urban Arcana

Max Headroom - This show deserves multiple series, like Star Trek. Its message is to important to forget.

I had no idea there was any love out there for Kindred! I was a humongous White Wolf fanboy back in the day, and so I was looking forward to this show for a couple of years before its release.

And then I saw an episode of it, and by the end of it, we were calling it Kindred: the Embarrassed. I HATED it, and was delighted when it was cancelled.

Of course, there's just the eensiest possibility that I took myself too seriously back in the day....

We called it Kindred: The Inebriated!
 


A Show I haven't seen anyone mention yet:

TITUS

I'm unsure if Chris Titus or Fox cancelled it, but that show, in the opinion of me and my wife, had one of the funniest casts with dead-on timing and writing that I've seen in years. It was a show that my wife and I could (and did) watch again and again. I still have some tapes of the reruns, that I will occasionally watch when TV's on a slow night.

I'll second the votes for
Firefly
Wonderfalls
The Inside
Misfits of Science
Dead Like Me
Brimstone

and most of the other shows mentioned here. Dead Like Me, at least, did have two complete seasons that felt somewhat complete when the run ended. But damn, was the writing sharp on that show. :)
