Last season of Deadwood plz?

Samurai Jack was great, and I'm so glad that they're bringing Futurama back for another season!

Stella. It was one of the few Comedy Central shows I actually found hilarious, but it only got one season.

Enterprise. They were just started to crank out good episodes when they unceremoniously beheaded it and left it to wriggle and die

And yet Voyager got seven seasons. Overall it was all right but some of the episodes were hack jobs with plot holes through which you could fly a dreadnought. Yet it had time to improve while Enterprise didn't. Thanks, Berman and Braga. Thanks so much.

Firefly!!!!!!!!!!!

Don't think anyones said it yet.

Half this thread has been full of Firefly love. Did you read it before you posted?

3 South. The worst part is that it hasn't been on the air long enough for many people to notice it.

Playmakers on ESPN
I loved that show but it only lasted 1 season before the NFL squashed it

Sure Futurama lasted for six season, but it wasn't enough. Enough is never enough when you're watching Futurama.

WHY DID THEY CANCEL FUTURAMA!! AAA! *drops from a giant mountain*

Also Samurai Jack, because it was so super-awesome and yet it didn't even get to the end of the story... And that makes me a sad pandaMANKILLER!!

Oh, and Fate/Stay Night could've been a bit longer. Especially since the morons placed non-existing scenes from another plot line (from the game) and made people believe that stuff like Shiro vs Archer are going to happen. Nope, maybe you should play the game if you want that...

They quashed it because it hit too close to home! I agree, though, that was a compelling show.

Arrested Developement

Hilarious but apparently didn't bring in the numbers.

So true, its vastly more popular now than it was when it was on air. *sigh* I love Arrested Development

A few newer shows that were cancelled in the first season, Life(NBC), Aliens in America(CW), Everybody Hates Chris (CW) and various other comedies that are being replaced by Jay Leno and other shitty 'comedies' but at least HBO still has some good comedies.

Cowboy Bebop!

Another one would be Father Ted.

Though in all fairness, it was probably better that they ended it since the death of Dermot Morgan. (Who played the titular character of the series.)

Samurai Jack and Keen Eddie

 

[Distorted Stu]

Angry Beavers!

Avatar. Sure, it was on for a REALLY long time, and yeah, it had a resolution and everything, but by golly, I WANT MORE OF IT! here's a great idea for that: Avatar: Generations. they could be a bunch of stand alone episodes that feature a different avatar from past or future and what they did when they were avatars. oh baby, that would be AWESOME.

Titus. The show ended where it needed to, but it was a great ride while it lasted.
