Favorite quickly cancelled television series

Pushing Daisies

Boomtown

Dirty Sexy Money

Twin Peaks

Women's Murder Club (okay, okay, full disclosure... Angie Harmon? How can I pass that up? And one of my favorite younger actresses, Aubrey Dollar, was on it)

Swingtown (both this show and Boomtown... Lana Parrilla... mmmm mmmm)

More later as I think of some others.

 

Swingtown was going in some interesting directions. I was hoping that would hang around for awhile. Dirty Sexy Money, too.

 

So glad I am not the only one who thinks this. I sat through the movie and then was convinced to watch the show. I fell asleep.

 

I'm prohibitively adding "Firefly" to the list (populated currently by The Wire) of "shows my really smart, awesome friends think I'd love" that I don't get.

I'm only 20 minutes in, but on wiki it was described as "an American space western." Yikes. Things I don't like: space and Westerns.

 

Sadly enough, I remember liking that show. No idea why.

 

Unfortunately, you and I might have been the only ones watching. It was loosely based on the comic about Barbara Gordon/Oracle and her field agents, but the other characters and situation were very different.

 

Yeah, I might very well think it was terrible if I saw it now. I haven't seen it since it went off the air. (They showed reruns?) But I liked it when I was about nine years old.

 

Did you see the pool? They flipped the bitch!

Loved "Clone High" when it originally aired, along with "Undergrads." I think those are the last good shows to come from MTV.

"Clone High" was quickly cancelled, but I really don't see how it could have gone to a second season. The show was awash in self-parody by the tenth episode.

 

Same situation here... People whose opinions I respect thought I'd love it and I barely got through the first episode and turned it off 20 minutes into the second episode. I'm a big Nathan Fillion fan too. I wanted to like it...

 

My top 3 are police squad, jericho and the magnificent 7 the tv series. they only did 2 seasons of it but it was brilliant. a bit like the A-team but in the wild west
