[QUOTE="evildmguy, post: 2525956, member: 6092"] In no particular order: Firefly Lone Gunmen Miracles Profit Kindred Brisco County Jr. (1 season and when they are coming out on DVD?) Birds of Prey Tru Calling (Their replacement, Point Pleasant, did *worse* than this. *sigh*) VR-5 (1 season, ended on a cliff hanger) Strange Luck (Again, DVD?) The Flash (DVD?) Roar (although I haven't seen them all yet, they are TiVoed from SciFi) American Gothic (LOVED that show!) Witchblade (although given the star's problems, it is understandable) TekWar (One of the few Shatner things I like.) Max Headroom (Wow! Probably even MORE relevant today!) Brimstone (didn't see much, 'cause I heard it was canceled and I didn't want to get hooked, but I liked what I saw.) Pretender (only canceled because NBC needed a slot for XFL. Grrr.) Skin (Was that the name of it?) Nostalgia Automan (Yep. Watched it and loved it 'cause of TRON) Manimal (vaguely remember) Man from Atlantis (ditto) Other: Point Pleasant (I don't think it was great but I liked the concept) The worst part is that a lot of these were on FOX and instead of getting a niche market, they kept wanting to compete with the "big boys" and so instead of having some good, quirky shows, they are as mainstream as the next. Ugh. Things to kill instantly, irrevocably, even with wish or miracle, never have DVDs and never speak about again: All reality shows. (Dave Foley had a great line about them. On Celebrity Poker, it was all reality stars. He said, "I make my living as a writer and an actor. So, [being here with all of you], I feel like a virus surrounded by white blood cells.") Great topic! Thanks! Have a good one! Take care! edg [/QUOTE]
