Favorite tv show cancelled?

It never fails that H and I get into a tv show and then it gets cancelled. This year it's Outsourced and The Chicago Code. Did any of your favorite tv shows get cancelled?

Re: Favorite tv show cancelled?

  • I'm really annoyed Better With You and Outsourced were canceled too. I also loved The Gates which was canceled last year and same with Swingtown a while back. It really makes me not want to watch regular network shows b/c every time I get hooked on something it gets canceled. At least usually HBO and Showtime shows stick around.
  • There was a show called Swingtown that I liked--it was only on for one season and got cancelled. It was a bummer.

  • I liked FlashForward and was annoyed when they cancelled it last year. I feel like there are zillions of new shows every year - some starting in Sept, some in January, etc that I can't keep up. It seems like they pull some shows before they even have a chance, or they go on hiatus and people forget about them. Stupid TV.

  • I'm sad that Outsourced and Mad Love were canceled.  DH was on the Jericho bandwagon when it got canceled but I don't think there's been anything I'm super sad about.

    That show was awesome!

    There was a show on ABC a long time ago - like maybe 10 years ago -  called "Cupid" w/ Jeremy Piven.  I also still miss Freaks and Geeks.

    The canceled Human Target??  Damn it!  I didn't know that.  H and I really liked that show.  We suck at watching anything on a regular basis, but we watched that one whenever we happened to catch it.

    Wait Mad Love has been cancelled? I really like that show! Damnit...

    I heard it on the radio this morning.  I thought the cast had really good chemistry and was sufficiently different from HIMYM to fly.  I can't understand how shows like 2 1/2 Men and Big Bang Theory are still on and these shows get canceled.

    You don't like Big Bang Theory?  I might have to defriend you over this one.

    LOL.  No, it's a nickname I've had since I was a little kid.  Wawa is what everybody calls me, Jeanne is my middle name.

    My sister did actually work for Wawa in high school, which was an endless source of jokes for the family.

  • lol...gotcha! I actually have a friend that works there! hehehe

  • Ugh, so many that I can't even begin to think of them. Swingtown, Flash Forward, Journey Man, I can't think of any more, bc most were only on for like a season or less. But I hate when you get all involved in a show and POOF it's gone. Especially Flash Forward. IDK if that got cancelled bc of bad ratings or more so bc the script/storyline got too complicated and they didn't know where to go with it!

    I have to assume it was not getting good ratings. Because yeah, the story was complicated, but that's why it was good! But you need *time* to develop a complicated story line. Look at LOST - that was BSC and everyone loved it (me included).

  • On the list Tygress linked to, I only watch(ed) a few of them and I'm on board with them ending - Big Love, Entourage, RHoDC and Lie to Me (which I didn't watch religiously). 

    DH routinely gets interested in shows only to have them cancelled.  We call him a jinx because it's happened so often, and the most recent one that comes to mind is Jericho.  He loved that show.

    The last ones I remember being into that I was sad were cancelled were K-Town (set in post-Katrina NOLA) and a show set in Miami around a family that grew sugarcane (was it called Cane? I'm too lazy to look it up).  They both went off the air during the writers' strikes and just never came back.

    Um, I, uh...

    No, I don't get the appeal.  Can we still be friends?  We still have brooches and cake!

    I'll just file this away with our voting preferences in things we agree to disagree on.  ;)

  • I hate it when a show I get into gets cancelled after just one season. I don't know why they don't give these shows a little more time. I'm sure Friends wasn't a big hit after season 1. I'm bummed to see The Event and Flash Forward on that cancellation list. I tried to watch The Cape but couldn't get into it.

  • I am so bummed that Chicago Code has been cancelled. 

    I feel like they dont give shows a good enough chance!
