I'm still not over Firefly. Or the Orville.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 6 days ago (1 children)

The Orville hasn't been canceled, yet. S04 will enter production this year.

Thank you. It's been sitting lonely in my Jellyfin for a long time waiting to hear this.

Mind hunter, surprised i didn't see it mentioned

[–] [email protected] 7 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Especially since it wasn't a real cancellation, just "on indefinite hiatus" followed by "never coming back" almost five years later. The second season ending very much set up at least another season.

Yeah, so good! This was Netflix’s True Detective and they just…dropped it?

Pushing daisies was a hard pill to swallow. Such a great quirky show.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 6 days ago (2 children)

And, from that same era, Dead Like Me.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago

It sucks that it was only two seasons, but it did have a clean ending. No cliffhangers, or anything begging to be finished. I was happy with that.

Both Brian Fuller shows

[–] [email protected] 8 points 6 days ago

freaks and geeks. unbelievably stacked cast but the network never gave it a dedicated time so no one knew when they could watch it. then it got cancelled before they aired half the episodes citing poor viewership

[–] [email protected] 7 points 6 days ago

Sort of counts, but KOTH.

Fox took it off the air FOUR episodes from the finale to "make room for The Cleveland Show" of all things, the worst offering from those Family Guy clones imho.

Luckily, Adult Swim was kind enough not only to pick up KOTH, but to air those last missing episodes as well, and I have it all torrented by now of course and it was easy to find, but still, fuck Fox for that one (amongst other things, but I want to punch the specific exec that decided to do that right in the eye just one good time.)

Last Man on Earth

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 days ago

Lazor Wulf. Two seasons, with a forced change in animation studios between seasons, didn't give the show enough opportunity to grow.

Tuca & Bertie and Firefly as well. Maybe Lower Decks too

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 days ago

If streaming shows are fair game, Final Space. So much passion poured into such an excellent production and Netflix axed it after 3 seasons.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 days ago (1 children)

I liked Danny Devito's Little Demon, but it only got one season. :(

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 days ago

This one hurts me too, but last time I checked, it's neither canceled nor is it green lit for a 2nd season. It seems to be in some weird Limbo.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 days ago

Threshold really should have gotten more than one season. Unfortunately, I don't think anybody's ever heard of it.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 days ago

My name is Earl, super disrespectful to end on a cliffhanger after 4 seasons

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 days ago

4400 both version, pretender, x-files, clarice,

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 days ago

The Pretender. Mostly because they had just had a huge cliff hanger. And the made for TV movies never got aired in my country.
