What is the best show thats ever been cancelled?


?? personally, a think JOEY! what do u think?

joey was brill, ppl jus kept comparin it 2 friends!

reply

I'm assuming that you were joking about Joey,

The best show ever to be cancelled is Arrested Development.

Wow.

My list would have to include John Doe, Firefly, Sports Night, and of course, Two Guys and a Girl.

Definitely would have to go with Sports Night out of all those though. After watching the entire series practically without stopping, I can honestly say that Sorkin should have stuck with writing comedy and I eagerly await Studio 60.

reply

I would have to agree with Firefly

Joey: Do you think every Joey has a Dawson and every Dawson has a Joey?

Off centre..

Loved Sports Night, too, but I was crushed when Firefly was cancelled. What do you think of Studio 60?

reply

I would have to agree with you on Firefly, but the problem with that show was that the producers decided that they were not going to continue if they didn't get everything they wanted from the broadcast company. When they didn't get it, they discontintued their production.

I am pretty sure that most shows that are cancelled usually fall under this category. It is usually not because they have bad rating, in fact just the opposite. They have great ratings but they wanted to much in return from the broadcast companies for completion of a certain show. AKA Friends, after the contract dispute the broadcast company decided that the tenth season was enough, I think so did most of the actors... (besides Matt LeBlanc obviously.)

Firefly

reply

I would have to go with Freaks And Geeks, Arrested Development, and Terminator: Sarah Connor Chronicles

reply

Terminator: Sarah Connor Chronicles


When this got cancelled, I stopped watching network TV almost altogether. They give up on shows too easily (especially serialized) and keep creating more and more cop/hospital procedurals.

reply

Firefly, Dark Angel and John Doe. John Doe was the most bitchy cliffhanger ever not to finish.

Oh and TSCC hasnt been cancelled, so dont jinx it.

reply

I agree with Firefly and Dark Angel - screw FOX!

reply

For those of us a few years older, the best show to ever get cancelled was the original WKRP.

reply

arrested development, john doe

you have to be kidding about joey right??

reply

Agreed.

I'm still in shock that Arrested Development even got cancelled.

reply

I'll second that true-canucker.......or should I say robot?!

reply

Firefly for sure and then Dead like me.

reply

I kinda agree with you.
It had a lot of competition with friends and it was better than alot of shows that air right now like according to jim, the class and life on a stick.
Friends is in my opinion the best sitcom ever (better than seinfeld) and it's a hard show to compete with if every show ever aired was compared to friends 82% of all sitcoms would have been cancelled

reply

Arrested Development was the greatest show ever, let alone the best show ever cancelled.

reply

Married with Children was funny and it got cancelled... more just dissapeared without anyone knowhing what happened to it though lol... Too bad, I would have at least like to have seen a final episode on it :(

reply

Honestly, the best show that was ever cancelled, would have to be ...

Two Guys, A Girl and A Pizza Place

as well as

Firefly

reply

Two Guys, A Girl, and A Pizza Place is still shown in syndication in the UK on Trouble, but my favourite all time shows that were cancelled are My So-Called Life and Party Of Five - look at the talent that came out of those shows!! My So-Called Life only lasted one season, but the writing asnd acting were superb - Claire Danes has never been better, and the world was introduced to the most beautiful guy, Jared Leto - thank you!!! Two Guys and A Girl is a great show tho, shame it isn't out to buy unlike all the other crap tv hows out there!!

reply

Two guys and a girl, Angel and Firefly

reply

some of these were not cancelled, but here they are: Alias, Buffy, Angel, Firefly

If youre wondering whats true and what's not you can off cause its none of your goddamn business

reply

well angel didnt get picked up (cancalled), buffy ended, Firefly was cancalled and abc wanted alias to end faster and it was cancalled.

reply

Dead Like Me, Arrested Development, Popular, Freaks and Geeks..Oh, so many.

reply

I loved this show. I got Reynolds autograph at a baseball game during the time this show was being filmed. He was really down to earth. He still seems like a grounded guy and his acting is just as good.

Showtime's Barbershop, G vs E, Make Your Move (Jason Bateman spin off of Silver Spoon) certainly Two Guys and A Girl. Remember in the end they dropped the Pizza Place from the title.

Arrested Development was too funny, should not have been cancelled. theyre gonna show it on that channel G4 tho

shizzle, i forgot "the lone gunmen"

reply

"Two Guys & A Girl","Off Centre","That 70's Show","Allo Allo!"

reply

Firefly! Oh yeah, and Misfits of Science.

reply

Arrested development, dead like me, deadwood, firefly, two guys and a girl, the tick and cop rock (soooo bad it was good)...

As for Twin Peaks, do you remember the 2nd season? Lynch fully admitted that he only meant for the series to last one season and did the second one for the simple reason that the network tossed a suitcase full of gold at him. He even admitted to winging the entire season and just making crap up... That show was basically a mini-series, albeit the greatest mini-series of all time, but not an actual series that was cancelled before it's time.

reply

Do Over, The Tick, 2gagaaPP, Firefly, Angel, The Black Donnellys,Titus

reply

The best show that has been canceled is Freaks and Geeks

reply

family guy. the show that is so good they brought it back after it was cancelled.

life on a stick was awesome though. only 5 episodes, atleast two guys got a couple seasons. not saying i don't like it

WallFIshy

reply

Firefly for sure....

reply

firefly, wonderfalls, dead like me, arrested development, two guys a girl, futurama, invader zim, undeclared, freaks and geeks, there are way too many!!!

Every heart is a revolutionary cell.

reply

Another Fox show that's so good it was canceled & now being brought back is futurama,albeit on cartoon network.
I'd also add "Newsradio" & "Less Than Perfect" to my comedy choices.
