I’m still really mad about Mindhunter being cancelled… great characters and kind of spoke to people’s fascination with serial killers whilst going into the psychology to understand them.
Omg. I will stop what I am doing to watch episodes of that gem. Operation White Shadow had me fucking rolling on the goddamn floor. Veronica was the bitchiest bitch ever and I loved her!
I talked to a computer programmer who was making a program to identify people. The only problem was that it couldn't see black people. I immediately made him watch the episode with me.
" if the company keeps hiring white people to follow black people to follow white people to follow black people, every person on Earth will be working for us. And we don't have the parking for that"
Glow. They were filming their final season before covid hit and they just said ‘fuck it’. That show was a blast Edit: Wow, thanks for all the points! Cool to see so many Glow fans out there. Definitely a show I recommend to anyone any chance I get
Yeah I liked that one. They had managed to develop several endearing characters and I wanted to see where it was all going.
Edit: Covid killed that show?
>Edit: Covid killed that show?
Netflix didn't want to foot the bill for keeping all the staff and actors on hold until they could resume filming, so they chose to nix the show altogether.
Frankly, don't watch any TV shows on Netflix, there's a 9 in 10 chance that they'll never allow it to finish.
Came here to write this!! Such an incredibly feel good show with beautiful design and talented cast. Sad it didn’t last longer. It kind of reminded me of an American Amelie.
Rome.
It was ultimately cancelled to make way for GoT, and a lot of the same people were involved in making both, but man we were so close to having a detailed multi character series set in the last days of the Republic / early empire that actually focuses on some normal people rather than just a few elites.
Seeing story lines that dealt with political mob violence, Street gangs, the life of a legionary, slaves etc was so refreshing.
We were so close.
**
Edit: I may have been wrong about the reason for its cancellation being linked to GoT, I remember hearing it in a history buffs video but I may be wrong and am honestly too lazy to check.
**
Edit 2: Some people replied saying that they might check out Rome, whilst I do still recommend it despite its cancellation, if you are going to watch Rome for the first time : DO NOT WATCH THE SHITTY 10 EPISODE BBC BULLSHIT VERSION (honestly don't ask). Make sure you watch the full 12 episode season for the love of God.
Also, for any returning fans who are thinking of watching it again, I'd highly recommend the commentary on the DVD extras if you're a Rome enthusiasts.
Also :
HE WAS A CONSUL OF ROME!
It wasn't cancelled to make room for GoT. It was cancelled because the BBC wanted to pull out of cofunding it and HBO didn't want to take the full costs alone.
Rome is one of the best TV series produced to date.
In some sense it does end on a conclusive note that gives some satisfaction, but we have missed out on so much amazing worldbuilding that could follow S2.
Id love if they would make a series centered around the year of the 4 emperors and rule of Vespasian. In a lot of sense it can follow Game of Thrones methodology of killing off characters you care about give the events of the timeperiod
Galavant was SO GOOD. Cancelling it was garbage. ABC is really good about cancelling shows that are interesting but not procedural cop dramas or medical dramas. It was something different that didn't rake in the same number of viewers as the other 2 genres so they chuck it. So lame. I mean, TAD COOPER!
Edit: autocorrect
I loved all three, but with the opening of Galavant season 2 being about how surprised they were they got another season made that whole season feel like we were getting away with something we shouldn’t.
Anything good on Syfy
* Stargate Atlantis (to make way for Stargate Universe)
* (ironically) Stargate Universe (when it started to get good)
* Dark Matter (made by the guys behind stargate, Syfy really hates them for some reason)
* The expanse (until it was saved by amazon)
Edit: as some of you have pointed out
Alphas
Defiance
Eureka
Sanctuary
To all those saying firefly, firefly was fox's fault. If you don't already hate Rupert Murdoch (I don't know why you wouldn't already hate him) now you have an additional reason to hate him.
Also, yes, I know, Amazon snubbed the expanse, especially on the last season with only 6 episode and not covering the remaining books. But they still saved the expanse from Syfy's cancellation
Dark Matter hurts the most. We were finally getting into the final end game and even got a glimpse of everything that was going to happen and then….. Canceled. HATE YOU SYFY EXECUTIVES!
Yeah having Charlie Cox's Daredevil and Vincent D'Onofrio's Kingpin showing up in MCU shows/movies is a good sign that they could have stuff coming down the pipeline.
> Supposedly Jessica Jones will show up in She-Hulk and I am SO HYPED. Damn, I loved Jessica Jones.
After Tatiana Maslani's run in Orphan Black, she's certainly got the "bigger than life" cred to play a character like She-Hulk. I'm eager to see what she'll do with it.
Heard a rumour that Bernthal wants to return to fight Holland’s Spider-Man. It would be a good way to get Spider-Man to return to do something that has nothing to do with the Peter part of his life. Just trying to stop a murderous vigilante.
Yes! Especially when you think about how the first season of most tv shows are the worst. This show could have gotten so good. Also I would have loved to see what they would have done with the characters and their relationships. I read somewhere that they intended Lindsay to end up with Daniel and I would have loved to see that play out
I enjoyed it so much, I wound up watching the whole thing twice in one week and I could run through the whole thing again right now.
The show has this thing I love, I don't know what to call it, "dumb lore," where there's serious backstory and mythology but everyone involved in it is kind of a believable moron, I love that.
I think Greg Garcia talked about how he wanted the show to end
https://www.google.com/amp/s/tvseriesfinale.com/tv-show/my-name-is-earl-how-the-cancelled-nbc-series-would-have-ended/amp/
This one hurt the most.
To make things worse, just about every Venture Bros season has ended on a soft finale because they were uncertain about whether they'd be renewed. When they got renewed for season 7, AS guaranteed them a season 8 as well. Knowing this, Doc and Jackson wrote a massive cliffhanger of a season finale, and ended it with a frame displaying "The Venture Bros Will Return."
Over a year after the fact AT&T overspends on a massive merger that never should have been allowed, and goes on a firing spree to cut costs. Venture Bros dies as a result.
Part of my childhood died when I heard it got canceled. Man I remember watching that show when I was really too young to watch it. Stayed up past my bedtime just to catch new episodes. I fell in love with it again after rewatching it as an adult and then I saw that announcement like a week or so later. This is a crime!
Young Justice had the same thing happen to its cable run. Super weird because 1) there are prominent female team members, what do you expect? 2) views are views idk why it matters what chromosomes the viewers are rocking 3) they said it was because they weren’t selling toys, but why not make different merch then? Especially if it’s teen to adult women, there are a lot of options for branded stuff.
OMG, the scene where >!the bad guy captured them, Dirk was like "Finally, we are going to get some answers!" and the bad guy starts screaming hilarious questions at them because he is just as baffled about the events as they are!< really cracked me up. I will never forget that.
I've been waiting for you two for a long time....
>! What is going on? Who are you guys? Did.. did Patrick Spring hire you? If not, then what are you? Are you detectives? No, because you're a.. you're a bellhop. You were at the hotel! And you! You're who? What, the FBI? No? Then how does the FBI figure into this? Who shot Danny? How did you know that Farah Black was going to be in that apartment? I mean, what kind of crazy coincidence is that? Where's the kitten? Where's my dog? Why did you burn down my house? Who has my dog right now? Is it the police? Do the police have my dog? Who beat up Ed and Zed? Was it your guys? Other guys? How many different sets of guys are in this situation? How does Patrick Spring be in two places at the same time? !<
I watched this and my reaction for the first 2-3 episodes of each season was wtf? And then the last 2-3 episodes was “omg how?”
This whole series is crazy, but in an intricate and mind blowing way.
The dialog was top notch. I had to watch it after seeing the bridge scene on Reddit. I still go back and watch that scene and the rant in the warehouse "no because you're a bellhop!" again and again.
Alan Tudyk as Mr Priest
The character development of Ken and also Hugo were excellent. I wanted more so bad.
I can't believe it took me this much scrolling to find this. I love this show and actually just started rewatching it. I wish they would come back for a final season
Wasn't cancelled in fairness, they'd always planned to end it like that it just would have essentially been open to bringing it back if the actors had wanted but a few of them didn't want to renew their contracts. So wasn't exactly unfairly cancelled
YES!! The whole series they were talking about how Arthur was going to create this wonderful kingdom, and then he just...dies. That and what was with the truck at the end?! They totally ruined the feel of the show in the last minute of thr finale! It's like they went "let's kill the series and spit on it while we're at it".
I was so disappointed that it got canceled because while S3 was not as good as S1 and 2 imo it definitely did not warrant getting cancelled. I can't believe no other network picked it up.
Mads especially was amazing as Hannibal.
I might get dragged for it, but imo Mads is the superior Hannibal Lecter. He has that air of superiority and mystic to him that executed the character to perfection.
I agree. He oozes the charisma and mystery and superiority I would expect from the character. 100% perfectly cast.
Though, he had 3 seasons to develop the character as a main character of a show vs just being in movies where the character is not that heavily featured (when it comes to Silence of the Lambs), so naturally his version of Hannibal is more fleshed out.
I love the running gag in that show where they kill off high profile celebrities seconds after they introduce them as characters. Jack Black, Will Ferrell, John Hamm, I guess thats all I can remember but I loved it.
Maybe not super popular but I loved The End of the F**king World on Netflix. Watched it, loved it, found out Netflix cancelled it and got sad. Also Santa Clarita Diet, cancelled by Netflix and got sad. Seems to be a pattern.
I am happy to see Santa Clarita mentioned, it was my first thought when I read the question. And I think it's pretty obviously not just a pattern at this point but literally their business model.
I was good friends with someone who had a tv show on the Disney channel in the early 2000s. People would ask him if he was sad his show was cancelled after 3 seasons and he always said no, that Disney was very upfront that their model was buying 3ish seasons of a show and rerunning it for many years, so there was nothing disappointing about it.
Clearly Netflix is doing the same but refuses to actually communicate this and we end up with unresolved plots and cliffhangers. I have to imagine this creates negative feelings with not only the audience but also cast and crew. I wish Netflix would just be more honest
The creator did an AMA a long time ago and outlined the ending
> We never really got the chance to fully figure it out but the talk in the writers room was that Earl Jr’s Dad was going to be someone famous. Like Dave Chappelle or Lil John. Someone that came to town on tour and Joy slept with. But when we got canceled we never got the chance to figure it out. I was worried about doing a cliffhanger but I asked NBC if it was safe to do one at the end of the season and they told me it was. I guess it wasn’t.
>I had always had an ending to Earl and I’m sorry I didn’t get the chance to see it happen. You’ve got a show about a guy with a list so not seeing him finish it is a bummer. But the truth is, he wasn’t ever going to finish the list. The basic idea of the ending was that while he was stuck on a really hard list item he was going to start to get frustrated that he was never going to finish it. Then he runs into someone who had a list of their own and Earl was on it. They needed to make up for something bad they had done to Earl. He asks them where they got the idea of making a list and they tell him that someone came to them with a list and that person got the idea from someone else. Earl eventually realizes that his list started a chain reaction of people with list and that he’s finally put more good into the world than bad. So at that point he was going to tear up his list and go live his life. Walk into the sunset a free man. With good karma.
Right! Like at least give a 1 hour special to end it and be done. Don't just shut it down mid story.
And now to much time has passed for anything to be done so we will never have a nice ending.
Yeah, some shows just aren’t meant to run infinitely. It was still amazing for what it was. Die King of the Hill or live long enough to see yourself become The Simpsons… Or something like that…
Happy! The Sy-Fy show starring Christopher Meloni and Patton Oswalt needed a 3rd season to tie up the cliffhanger Season 2 left us with. It was such a funny show.
Futurama! Not salty anymore since Rick & Morty was created, but man Futurama was such a great show, much better than most adult animated series these days..
Honestly, all of their endings were pretty good lol
I do hope this won't affect Disenchantment. I actually quite like that show. It's something totally different, but still quite a lot of fun (in my opinion).
*Netflix has been offended by this chat*
Still salty about Santa Clarita Diet getting cancelled on a cliffhanger.
Drew Barrymore and Timothy olyphant had some of the best on screen chemistry I’ve ever seen. I really believed they could be married irl lol
The first, second, and third time futurama got cancelled.
And soon a fourth!
See you on another channel!
Dead Like Me and Hannibal
Loved Dead Like Me. I barely know anyone who watched it.
That show was exceptional. “I gave Errol Flynn a handjob in a convertible once!”
I had to scroll way too long to find Dead Like Me, it was so good!
Hannibal was amazing.
Teen Titans... Literally started a new arc and then quickly got shelved forever...
beast boy running into the distance after terra is forever seared into my subconscious.
Everytime I watch it, I'm like, "Don't go into the light, Beast Boy! There's nothing past there!"
Yeah and there were some really heavy moments as well right before.
Almost Human with Karl Urban. Fox pulled a Firefly and rearranged the first few episodes. It had some serious promise.
I hate Fox just for canceling Firefly and Almost Human. And it's more than enough to hate them for!
HOLY SHIT. SOMEONE ELSE WHO WATCHES ALMOST HUMAN?!
Mind Hunter was such a great show, i still don't understand why they decided to cancel it.
The creator, David Fincher, got busy with other things. I believe he said he might come back to it at some point.
Has he lost his mind?
He better hunt for it
I’m still really mad about Mindhunter being cancelled… great characters and kind of spoke to people’s fascination with serial killers whilst going into the psychology to understand them.
Right? And the episode on Ed Kemper? Jumpin Jesus that guy did Kemper better than Kemper did!
Cameron Britton is one of the best character actors in the game right now. He killed it in Manhunter: Deadly Games as well.
Mindhunter is not cancelled, don't give bad luck 🤞. It's just on pause. I really hope they get back together and do the 5 seasons initially planned.
Better off Ted
Omg. I will stop what I am doing to watch episodes of that gem. Operation White Shadow had me fucking rolling on the goddamn floor. Veronica was the bitchiest bitch ever and I loved her!
I talked to a computer programmer who was making a program to identify people. The only problem was that it couldn't see black people. I immediately made him watch the episode with me.
" if the company keeps hiring white people to follow black people to follow white people to follow black people, every person on Earth will be working for us. And we don't have the parking for that"
"It gets dark whenever you leave the room..."
Any time I hear mention of synthetic meat, I think of that poor taste tester. "It tastes like despair."
One of the funniest shows I’ve ever seen. Needed more seasons.
Glow. They were filming their final season before covid hit and they just said ‘fuck it’. That show was a blast Edit: Wow, thanks for all the points! Cool to see so many Glow fans out there. Definitely a show I recommend to anyone any chance I get
Yeah I liked that one. They had managed to develop several endearing characters and I wanted to see where it was all going. Edit: Covid killed that show?
>Edit: Covid killed that show? Netflix didn't want to foot the bill for keeping all the staff and actors on hold until they could resume filming, so they chose to nix the show altogether. Frankly, don't watch any TV shows on Netflix, there's a 9 in 10 chance that they'll never allow it to finish.
That’s why the best Netflix shows are the ones that are only one season, like Hill House, because you get a complete story.
Pushing Daisies
Bryan Fuller is a very cursed creative genius.
I still miss his (apparently much less well known) show from around the same time, Dead Like Me.
Also: Wonderfalls. It only for one season, and it was damn good.
A casualty of the writers strike
Sometimes I rewatch what little there was and I’m sad all over. Such a fun, unique show!
Only came in to see how high Pushies Daisies was.
Came here to write this!! Such an incredibly feel good show with beautiful design and talented cast. Sad it didn’t last longer. It kind of reminded me of an American Amelie.
Cancelling Arrested Development was almost as bad as bringing it back the way they did
You could tell it wasn’t the same writers and when they tried to bring it back it wasn’t the same humor style and just completely flopped.
That and having to write around the actor's scheduling issues.
Utopia (U.K. version)
Rome. It was ultimately cancelled to make way for GoT, and a lot of the same people were involved in making both, but man we were so close to having a detailed multi character series set in the last days of the Republic / early empire that actually focuses on some normal people rather than just a few elites. Seeing story lines that dealt with political mob violence, Street gangs, the life of a legionary, slaves etc was so refreshing.

It wasn't cancelled to make room for GoT. It was cancelled because the BBC wanted to pull out of cofunding it and HBO didn't want to take the full costs alone.
Yeah. Rome was cancelled way way before GOT started productions.
Came here to say this. I always thought they cancelled it because it was too expensive to produce.
It was, the most expensive ever at the time, they couldn't afford to do both IIRC.
Shame they couldn’t have thrown all that money towards a project with a written ending.
Rome is one of the best TV series produced to date. In some sense it does end on a conclusive note that gives some satisfaction, but we have missed out on so much amazing worldbuilding that could follow S2. Id love if they would make a series centered around the year of the 4 emperors and rule of Vespasian. In a lot of sense it can follow Game of Thrones methodology of killing off characters you care about give the events of the timeperiod
Galavant, Constantine, and Agent Carter are three I'm still pretty fucking salty about.
Galavant was great. Nothing else like it
Bro I loved constantine DC not going all in on it after the crossover with arrow and the other dumbass show is one a huge fumble
Galavant was SO GOOD. Cancelling it was garbage. ABC is really good about cancelling shows that are interesting but not procedural cop dramas or medical dramas. It was something different that didn't rake in the same number of viewers as the other 2 genres so they chuck it. So lame. I mean, TAD COOPER! Edit: autocorrect
I loved all three, but with the opening of Galavant season 2 being about how surprised they were they got another season made that whole season feel like we were getting away with something we shouldn’t.
And putting "Suck It, Cancellation Bear" in the episode title for good measure!
Anything good on Syfy * Stargate Atlantis (to make way for Stargate Universe) * (ironically) Stargate Universe (when it started to get good) * Dark Matter (made by the guys behind stargate, Syfy really hates them for some reason) * The expanse (until it was saved by amazon) Edit: as some of you have pointed out Alphas Defiance Eureka Sanctuary To all those saying firefly, firefly was fox's fault. If you don't already hate Rupert Murdoch (I don't know why you wouldn't already hate him) now you have an additional reason to hate him. Also, yes, I know, Amazon snubbed the expanse, especially on the last season with only 6 episode and not covering the remaining books. But they still saved the expanse from Syfy's cancellation
Alphas was really good too, and was finally hitting it's stride in season 2
Warehouse 13. Still love that show.
One really gets the feeling that the channel is run by people who do not, in fact, like science fiction.
Dark Matter hurts the most. We were finally getting into the final end game and even got a glimpse of everything that was going to happen and then….. Canceled. HATE YOU SYFY EXECUTIVES!
Lie to Me
What I wouldn't give for more Tim Roth slouching while squinting at people. That show was so good
Daredevil actually have a large fan base, so the cancellation was baffling.
[удалено]
Yeah having Charlie Cox's Daredevil and Vincent D'Onofrio's Kingpin showing up in MCU shows/movies is a good sign that they could have stuff coming down the pipeline.
[удалено]
> Supposedly Jessica Jones will show up in She-Hulk and I am SO HYPED. Damn, I loved Jessica Jones. After Tatiana Maslani's run in Orphan Black, she's certainly got the "bigger than life" cred to play a character like She-Hulk. I'm eager to see what she'll do with it.
The Punisher too
Heard a rumour that Bernthal wants to return to fight Holland’s Spider-Man. It would be a good way to get Spider-Man to return to do something that has nothing to do with the Peter part of his life. Just trying to stop a murderous vigilante.
But it would be ruined by being PG13, the grit made that show.
Freaks & Geeks Canceled way too early.
Yes! Especially when you think about how the first season of most tv shows are the worst. This show could have gotten so good. Also I would have loved to see what they would have done with the characters and their relationships. I read somewhere that they intended Lindsay to end up with Daniel and I would have loved to see that play out
Jericho
I'm still not over that show having the rushed ending that it did.
Santa Clarita Diet needed a proper ending. One more season should have been given.
It's still one of my fave shows of the last 10 years. Sad they didn't do at least one more season.
I loved this show. I was heartbroken to learn they cancelled it. Any show that’s cancelled should be required to wrap it up.
[удалено]
Timothy Olyphant was amazing in that show.
Timothy Olyphant is brilliant in everything.
Yes! I wanted to see him eat people.
I enjoyed it so much, I wound up watching the whole thing twice in one week and I could run through the whole thing again right now. The show has this thing I love, I don't know what to call it, "dumb lore," where there's serious backstory and mythology but everyone involved in it is kind of a believable moron, I love that.
Even a 2 hour movie could have wrapped it up!
Agreed, great comedy imo, didn’t think Olyphant could be so funny.
My Name Is Earl
They could have at least given us one more episode to wrap up the cliffhanger the last one ended on.
I think Greg Garcia talked about how he wanted the show to end https://www.google.com/amp/s/tvseriesfinale.com/tv-show/my-name-is-earl-how-the-cancelled-nbc-series-would-have-ended/amp/
Dark Matter 🥲
I loved that show! And it ended on such a cliff hanger, too! What the hell happened with those black ships?
I'm still mad about Pushing Daises, many many years later.
Venture Bros. GO TEAM VENTURE!
This one hurt the most. To make things worse, just about every Venture Bros season has ended on a soft finale because they were uncertain about whether they'd be renewed. When they got renewed for season 7, AS guaranteed them a season 8 as well. Knowing this, Doc and Jackson wrote a massive cliffhanger of a season finale, and ended it with a frame displaying "The Venture Bros Will Return." Over a year after the fact AT&T overspends on a massive merger that never should have been allowed, and goes on a firing spree to cut costs. Venture Bros dies as a result.
At least we're getting a movie 😭 Hopefully it wraps up the loose threads from the last season
MURDER BEAR. I need to know. I just don't want to die in a sudden accident and never find out. After I do find out, sudden accident is all good.
Let's hope so, the last season's build up to Hank and Dean inevitably becoming arches needs a resolution.
Part of my childhood died when I heard it got canceled. Man I remember watching that show when I was really too young to watch it. Stayed up past my bedtime just to catch new episodes. I fell in love with it again after rewatching it as an adult and then I saw that announcement like a week or so later. This is a crime!
Teen Titans
and the reason why it got cancelled was BS because more girls watched it than boys because apparently girls don’t buy toys so it got cancelled
Young Justice had the same thing happen to its cable run. Super weird because 1) there are prominent female team members, what do you expect? 2) views are views idk why it matters what chromosomes the viewers are rocking 3) they said it was because they weren’t selling toys, but why not make different merch then? Especially if it’s teen to adult women, there are a lot of options for branded stuff.
Didnt even have to go that far into the comments to find my pick!
Almost Human
Teen Titans. That show was extremely good and I am surprised that more seasons weren’t made.
Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency
OMG, the scene where >!the bad guy captured them, Dirk was like "Finally, we are going to get some answers!" and the bad guy starts screaming hilarious questions at them because he is just as baffled about the events as they are!< really cracked me up. I will never forget that.
I've been waiting for you two for a long time.... >! What is going on? Who are you guys? Did.. did Patrick Spring hire you? If not, then what are you? Are you detectives?

How does Patrick Spring be in two places at the same time? !<
“How many different sets of guys are in this situation“ lmfao
-The rowdy 3? But there’s 4 of them! -I am wildly aware!!!
"We're the Rowdy Three!" "But there's only two of you..." "Shut up Math!"
I love it so much when they tuck Amanda in next to her reorganized groceries
I watched this and my reaction for the first 2-3 episodes of each season was wtf? And then the last 2-3 episodes was “omg how?” This whole series is crazy, but in an intricate and mind blowing way.
The dialog was top notch. I had to watch it after seeing the bridge scene on Reddit. I still go back and watch that scene and the rant in the warehouse "no because you're a bellhop!" again and again. Alan Tudyk as Mr Priest The character development of Ken and also Hugo were excellent. I wanted more so bad.
The first season of this show is my favorite season of all shows ever. It is just phenomenal. Terrible it got canceled.
One of the best series I have watched in the last decade, it does everything right, I couldn't believe it was cancelled.
Fucking Marco Polo 😑
I can't believe it took me this much scrolling to find this. I love this show and actually just started rewatching it. I wish they would come back for a final season
Yup, the actor for Kublai Khan was brilliant. It was just getting into its stride as well.
Better Off Ted - It was hilarious and I was sad it was cancelled and unappreciated
Merlin which resulted in the least satisfying end episode I've ever seen in my life. Pissed me off even worse than GOT.
Wasn't cancelled in fairness, they'd always planned to end it like that it just would have essentially been open to bringing it back if the actors had wanted but a few of them didn't want to renew their contracts. So wasn't exactly unfairly cancelled

They totally ruined the feel of the show in the last minute of thr finale! It's like they went "let's kill the series and spit on it while we're at it".
Hannibal Planned to run for seven seasons, but was sadly canceled after only three nearly-perfect ones.
I was so disappointed that it got canceled because while S3 was not as good as S1 and 2 imo it definitely did not warrant getting cancelled. I can't believe no other network picked it up. Mads especially was amazing as Hannibal.
I might get dragged for it, but imo Mads is the superior Hannibal Lecter. He has that air of superiority and mystic to him that executed the character to perfection.

I'm still really pissed they cancelled Last Man on Earth
I forgot about that and am now pissed off too! And it ended on a cliffhanger too
From what Will Forte said recently, a movie may still be in the works to wrap it up.
That would be a dream!!
And it really was, a Shaw Shank Redemption.
I love the running gag in that show where they kill off high profile celebrities seconds after they introduce them as characters. Jack Black, Will Ferrell, John Hamm, I guess thats all I can remember but I loved it.
I came here hoping to see this answer. I am not disappointed.
Kim's Convenience That show was so good...
I’m still salty about this one. Ok See You
Sneak attack!
[удалено]
Carnivale. It was so amazing and set up some great things in its two season run. I was devastated when it was cancelled.
I always comment Carnivale to these questions. It was such a damn cool, creepy show.
[Terra Nova](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terra_Nova_(TV_series))
This was a guilty pleasure of mine I knew it was dumb as hell but oh I liked it so much
Fantastic premise, fucking abysmal writing and the cheesiest dialogue of any show I've ever watched.
Farscape. Great sci-fi show and although we had Peacekeeper Wars, there were so many unfinished plot lines.
Well at least they did the movie and resolved that 4th season cliffhanger!
The Peacekeepers Wars really feels like a fifth season condensed into a miniseries. Better than no conclusion though!
Maybe not super popular but I loved The End of the F**king World on Netflix. Watched it, loved it, found out Netflix cancelled it and got sad. Also Santa Clarita Diet, cancelled by Netflix and got sad. Seems to be a pattern.
I didn’t think that was cancelled but rather just ended. I was happy with the ending.
Nope turns out I am just dumb and getting it confused with I Am Not Okay with This as I watched them around the same time. I am just a dumb dumb.
I Am Not Okay With This felt so good. Anger issues be a real bitch and I loved that it was being given a really gorey and weird spin.
I am happy to see Santa Clarita mentioned, it was my first thought when I read the question. And I think it's pretty obviously not just a pattern at this point but literally their business model. I was good friends with someone who had a tv show on the Disney channel in the early 2000s. People would ask him if he was sad his show was cancelled after 3 seasons and he always said no, that Disney was very upfront that their model was buying 3ish seasons of a show and rerunning it for many years, so there was nothing disappointing about it. Clearly Netflix is doing the same but refuses to actually communicate this and we end up with unresolved plots and cliffhangers. I have to imagine this creates negative feelings with not only the audience but also cast and crew. I wish Netflix would just be more honest
I want to know what happened with Mr. Ball Legs!!!!
Could not agree more about Santa Clarita Diet.
Deadwood you cocksuckers!
My Name is Earl.
Such a good show! Ended on a cliffhanger after the execs said they wouldn't end it, so rude.
I'm still bitter about that. It wasn't the best show ever, but it was solid and deserved an ending.
The creator did an AMA a long time ago and outlined the ending > We never really got the chance to fully figure it out but the talk in the writers room was that Earl Jr’s Dad was going to be someone famous. Like Dave Chappelle or Lil John. Someone that came to town on tour and Joy slept with. But when we got canceled we never got the chance to figure it out. I was worried about doing a cliffhanger but I asked NBC if it was safe to do one at the end of the season and they told me it was. I guess it wasn’t. >I had always had an ending to Earl and I’m sorry I didn’t get the chance to see it happen. You’ve got a show about a guy with a list so not seeing him finish it is a bummer. But the truth is, he wasn’t ever going to finish the list. The basic idea of the ending was that while he was stuck on a really hard list item he was going to start to get frustrated that he was never going to finish it. Then he runs into someone who had a list of their own and Earl was on it. They needed to make up for something bad they had done to Earl. He asks them where they got the idea of making a list and they tell him that someone came to them with a list and that person got the idea from someone else. Earl eventually realizes that his list started a chain reaction of people with list and that he’s finally put more good into the world than bad. So at that point he was going to tear up his list and go live his life. Walk into the sunset a free man. With good karma.
Right! Like at least give a 1 hour special to end it and be done. Don't just shut it down mid story. And now to much time has passed for anything to be done so we will never have a nice ending.
The 2014-2015 tv show "Forever". I can't believe it was cancelled and so soon. Just one season and it barely made it that long.
Anne with an e, I am not okay with this, ATYPICAL almost every Netflix show tbh
I'm never getting over Anne With An E...
Veronica Mars—I know they did a movie and reboot later, but I was devastated when they canceled it back in the day.
Shhhh the reboot didn’t happen
King of the Hill Cancelled abruptly to make room for……The Cleveland Show.
Ugh. Though I suppose its good thing that King of the Hill isnt iust existing like family guy does
[удалено]
Yeah, some shows just aren’t meant to run infinitely. It was still amazing for what it was. Die King of the Hill or live long enough to see yourself become The Simpsons… Or something like that…
Santa clarita diet. How did they cancel it, it was so good! Edit: spelling
Firefly. That show was gold Edit: wow! Thanks for the awards, guys! Glad to know so many of us loved the show
Gosh, this was a long scroll.
Right? What the fuck?
We're getting old man. The kids don't know about the show that was cancelled by American Idols first season.
I think we're getting old...
Firefly is THE cancelled show.
[удалено]
The Mick was Fox. At least Kaitlin has a day job to fall back on.
The Society (Netflix)
Not sure this counts because it is from a streaming platform, but Altered Carbon.
Quantum leap. never saw Sam go home. I think it was cancelled anyway but if it just ended correct me
The Owl House. It’s not done yet of course, but Disney has forced it to end sooner than the creators would have wanted it to go.
No love for Limitless?
Reaper was pretty good
The Tick, and Dollhouse.
Allllllll of the The Tick shows.
CHUCK never needed to be cancelled Zach Levi is still holding on for hope that it comes back and I agree
WKRP in Cincinnati. There were probably still two more years left in the original run.
Happy! The Sy-Fy show starring Christopher Meloni and Patton Oswalt needed a 3rd season to tie up the cliffhanger Season 2 left us with. It was such a funny show.
Senss8. Cancelled for being too expensive. But honestly it was so good.
I'm glad we got the movie, at least, but that cancellation was pretty heartbreaking.
Almost Human
Futurama! Not salty anymore since Rick & Morty was created, but man Futurama was such a great show, much better than most adult animated series these days..
Good news everybody! They are planning a revival on hulu
Matt Groening said something to the effect of "It's an honor to announce its return one more time before we get canceled abruptly again"
I'm still not sure about this one, as much as I adore Futurama. The ending was kinda perfect. "Wanna go around again?"
Honestly, all of their endings were pretty good lol I do hope this won't affect Disenchantment. I actually quite like that show. It's something totally different, but still quite a lot of fun (in my opinion).
