Some shows run their course or even stay around too long. Do you have a favorite show that was canceled prematurely in your opinion?


My favorite: Bloodline on Netflix

Def. The Sopranos. I would have totally enjoyed seeing James Gandolfini grow into a grumpy OLD mob guy.

There are those that got dumped with no closure which I think fall into this and those that ended early after being told it was over allowing them to wrap it up with some type of closure.

Patriot (Prime)
The Punisher (Netflix)
My Name Is Earl
ALF
Pushing Daisies

I think another good question would be what shows did you like, until they did something that made you stop watching like killing of Roseanne.

Punisher is returning most likely on Hulu

Another one I forgot was a show called Life. Basically a cop had been framed and was serving a life sentence. About a decade in new evidence cleared him and he sued for millions and his job back. The show was him solving crimes but most the other cops still thinking he did it. Had a great season 2 ending before getting the axe

I have no idea. I don’t watch much.

What about too long?

Too Short:

Lost - went 6, could have lasted 8 or 9 with the acting and writing.

Manifest - went 3, apparently Netflix picking it up for one last wrap up season.

Too Long:

MASH - if you see BJ Hunnicut with a mustache in the opening, turn the channel, nothing but Alda laced liberal drivel.

Andy Griffith Show - very simple, if it is in color, don't waste your time, black and white episodes are all pure gold though.

Wrecked - this was a spoof of “Lost” on TBS that got cancelled after 3 seasons. It’s one of the funniest shows I’ve ever seen, and it’s absolutely criminal that it got cancelled.

I binged “Jericho” on one of the streaming services and was really getting into it when I realized there were no more episodes - it had been cancelled years earlier. Why would you set up a customer like that?

Arrested Development was cancelled way too soon. Netflix brought it back several years later, but it wasn't the same. The first 3 original seasons are fantastic.

Studio 60 on Sunset Strip

Really well written comedy/drama series. Great acting.

Jericho.
