A lot of good shows that were canceled. Firefly and Arrested Development are two good examples.
In terms of shows that meant to end that way, Trigun. That was one of the worst endings ever: the first half of the last episode was recap. I mean, if you didn't already know that stuff you shouldn't be watching the last episode anyway! And the last half was a gun battle. That was it. All the emotional tension and history the show developed ended in a really short, simple gun battle.
Still a really good show, though. Recommended.
