Good call on freaks & geeks!

Swingtown !

Thank you, I wasn't the only one who thought so!

I'll toss in That 80's Show. I would have like to seen developed a bit more. Not quite a continuation of That's 70 Show, but the one character apparently was Foremans cousin.

I don't even think they gave it a full season. It would probably work better now.

I didn't know Swingtown was cancelled :(

loved dead like me

I don't think there was any formal announcement. I watched the CBS returning shows, cancellations and mid season replacement but it wasn't listed. I heard HBO bought the rights to it and there was some hope they would produce more episodes. But they already had Big Love in their lineup so apparently decided against it.

"Sports Night." A genius show that should have gotten a better chance, but Disney greed and Robert Guillame's stroke pretty much sent it into the crapper. There was a nice story arc with one of the junior PAs hooking up with a porn star -- when somebody asked him how far things had progressed and he replied "I'm calling her by her real name" I yelled at the TV set "SONOVABITCH! SOMEBODY'S BEEN THERE!!" -- and the last few eps with network executives getting ready to cancel the show-within-a-show were inspired. William H. Macy had a monologue about Philo Farnsworth that brought tears to my eyes.

The other one that should have lasted longer was the last mainstream show I worked on. We were cancelled and we taped the last ep on July 3, 19-nevermind, adding a new and sinister meaning to the term "Independence Day."

kylie xy is getting cancelled too, but to me that not really a big deal, but it it is a bit of waste that show should not be on abc family it should be on sci fi or spacecast.

It has actually gotten to the point where I won't even start watching most drama shows until they are a few seasons in and then I will rent the DVD. I hate shows that only have a season and a bit and never rap up.

Also..another one..Jake 2.0. ..I liked it enough to actually see the show go a bit longer. It was Chuck before Chuck. Now the lead guy is playing the boyfriend in Ugly Betty.

I agree, seemed at first they were just trying to do the "wow, look how many 80's pop culture references and embarrassing outfits we can cram in" before it settled down a bit. Then again, perhaps That 70's Show started out like that? When I see the eps now it's really just another sitcom - not anything particularly 70's, apart from the fashion, but that's the background rather than focus.

I saw an ep the other day which showed [19]79 on the license plate at the end, does that mean it's the final season?

"Cupid" (1998) with Jeremy Piven was a great series. Barely lasted a season. More details here: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0168326/

Family Guy originally lasted only 2 seasons until it was brought back due to huge DVD sales.

I am the same way. My wife and I just "discovered" Smallville via DVD set. My wife got hooked, watched several seasons' worth back to back. :1orglaugh

My husband and I go on watching marathons like that. For example, we just finished watching the whole of the X-Files just because we missed bits when it was actually on air. It just gives us something to watch together each night. That run only took us since October. Previously we did that with Buffy as I had never really followed it.

I also do that myself with shows to that I have something to watch when doing exercise. I know I lost at least 20 of my pounds by being on the bike while I watched the whole of the Sopranos.

Point Pleasant
Arrested Development
Aliens in America
Firefly
Freak and Geeks
The 4400 ?

And then some good series had to be fucked with by milking the bitch dry

Nip Tuck - laaame
24 - OMG there is a mole! CTUFBICSI has been compromised!
Lost - Lets all head back to the island!
Prison Break - this time lets break into another prison and try to escape again!
...

And of course Knight Rider and MacGyver

cupid is comming back/ relaunched

Whatever happened to Boston Public? lol i only followed it for the first while, i think it got too dramatic and too much time spent following the parents and teachers drama and not as much of the kids, very similar with The O.C... i guess ratings dropped?
