Everybody Hate Chris is the only one of these that might be considered a short lived canceled show. Seinfeld, Full House, and Fresh Prince all had really long runs.

Everybody Hate Chris is the only one of these that might be considered a short lived canceled show. Seinfeld, Full House, and Fresh Prince all had really long runs.

Except that Everybody Hates Chris ran until Chris Rock felt it was finished. He said there was no more to be said.

Neither of these have been canceled.

Apparently they are having trouble waiting a couple of months for the new season to start.

What's your favorite short lived canceled TV show?

Life: Ony 2 seasons. Damian Lewis as a cop who found Zen while in prison partnered with Sarah Shahi who has a past of her own. Great rapport between the two mains, and just great episodic TV with progressive underlying stories.

I loved Life. It was a really good season. However, the series finale sucked.

House and JAG were good a well.

 

[ItnStln511]

I came into this thread with one thing in mind... post about Life. (i see you beat me to it)

one of the BEST cancelled shows of ALL-TIME

It had potential, I'm not sure why they did cancel it...it was always fun watching Charlie being behind in technology.

I would strongly recommend Lie to Me, which was definitely canceled prematurely. It's on Netflix.

Wasn't lie to me a recent show?

 

[Hrethgir]

Dead Like Me
Arrested Developement
Sports Night

 

[RazorSharp]

Wasn't lie to me a recent show?

It ran from January 21, 2009 to January 31, 2011, so yeah pretty recent.

Any American show that features a Brit eating a can of imported Heinz Baked Beans is definitely a keeper for me

(Expat Brits over here will probably understand me here - the significance of this may be lost to native born Americans )

so many.... firefly being at the top, pushing daisies, reaper, human target.

 

[Seanette]

Let's see (in no particular order):
FlashForward
John Doe
Nowhere Man
Tru Calling
Terra Nova
Awake
DH would add The Event, which I gave up on (too cutesy-gimmicky-artsy with the nested flashbacks to bother telling a coherent story, IMO).

 

[ebusinesstutor]

Firefly
Defying Gravity
Flash Forward
Dollhouse
Tru Calling
Legend of the Seeker
V (2009)

Shows are cancelled so quickly that sometimes they are cancelled before I even get to watch an episode.

 

[MacFett]

Another one I forgot:
Krod Mandoon And The Flaming Sword Of Fire

 

[apnsb]

The Human Target
No Ordinary Family
The Finder

 

[RazorSharp]

Another one I forgot:
Krod Mandoon And The Flaming Sword Of Fire

Good one! I agree.

No Ordinary Family

Oh man, did that get canceled? I kept meaning to watch it.

I'll also add in Lone Star, which lasted all of two episodes on FOX before it was canceled, but it seemed like an interesting premise.

 

[MacFett]

Caprica

I've really been missing Caprica. Wasn't there a rumor of another spin-off that took place at the same time as BSG but from the Cylon PoV?

 

[mak916]

Firefly
Defying Gravity
Flash Forward
Dollhouse
Tru Calling
Legend of the Seeker
V (2009)

I really miss Legend of the Seeker. Really good show.

 

[mak916]

Does anyone remember "Kindred: The Embraced", or "The Gates"? I thought both were good shows.

 

[MacFett]

Talking with my wife tonight I was reminded of two others I don't think have been mentioned, Werewolf (FOX, ran around the time of 21 Jump Street) and Kindred: The Embraced.

Does anyone remember "Kindred: The Embraced"

Yup, it was a pretty good show.

Lets see, this is about all I can think of at the moment.

Get Christi Love
The Guns of Will Sonnett
