NO SPOILERS PEOPLE!!! Since some of us may still want to watch the series mentioned.

Mine was the 2002 Dominic Purcell TV series John Doe. Which was (if you haven't seen it) about a guy who appears to know everything about every subject imaginable, whereas the only things he doesn't know is who he really is and how he is able to know everything. The series follows him as he lends his talents to his local police department so he can help them solve murders and mysteries. Although the show was able to answer the questions as to who he was and how he knows everything, they did decide to end it on a cliffhanger which even 18 years later will always make me wonder where this show could have gone if it had continued with the story.

Doocy acts like he's 85 now and then, but overall I like it and apparently most of the country does too. Who knows how long it'll continue like it is, but I'll be watching it till then 😉

Firefly needed another season though to be fair they made a movie to attempt to wrap it up

Jericho (06-08) needed another season

SERENITY IS THE GREATEST FILM BASED ON CANCELLED SHOW EVER....

[–] ShogunofYonkers (77987) 5 years ago

Excellent show

Even though it stopped being made 12 years ago, I have only just recently started watching Jericho, I am a couple of episodes from the end of the 1st series, but based on the subject matter I would completely understand that it wouldn't have had the story wrapped up in the end since the 2nd season only had 7 episodes.

It needed more time
But it was very good

Models Inc.!😆

[–] ShogunofYonkers (77987) 5 years ago

Stop being silly you😬

[–] Stratego (30761) 5 years ago

I'm not! I enjoyed that show and it ended on a cliffhanger. Big bummer!☹

I don't recall any other show I've watched that ended on a cliffhanger except for The Mysteries of Laura and I definitely liked Models Inc. much better than that one.🤷‍♀️

Outside of those mentioned... such as Firefly and Angel..
I've never really gotten over Invasion (2005) and Journeyman (2007)..
