Favorite Cancelled Show?

**duc** · Nov 20th, 2003, 11:11 PM

What's yours?

Mines either Saved by the Bell or Salute Your Shorts. [actually neither of those was either that funny....but they were entertaining]

**Something Else** · Nov 21st, 2003, 07:07 AM

Tossup between "Quantum Leap" and "The Pretender".
Misz. Parker Fascinated me, and I wish they developed Broots more.

Eldorado

**Cander** · Nov 21st, 2003, 09:44 AM

SOAP (Ended with unresolved conflicts)

Other favorites of mine were not 'cancelled' per se. Just the series ended like Quantum Lep, Buffy.

Oh, Firefly, that was great show that cancelled before ti was even given the chance.

Family Guy, which Fox said the DVD's are selling so well(#1 TV DVD this year, #4 top selling ever), the may bring it back with 24 new episodes!

C.P.O. Sharkey, The Pitts

**LabtroRob** · Nov 21st, 2003, 11:20 AM

Thats easy:

Airwolf

Best show ever.

**Archangel_B4U** · Nov 21st, 2003, 11:45 AM

Transformers and Knight Rider

More recently, I was really getting into "The Lion's Den" but that's disappeared without a trace. Seinfeld is the all-time greatest show but doesn't qualify as a cancelled show.

**JPicasso** · Nov 21st, 2003, 02:16 PM

The Gong Show.

**NotLKH** · Nov 21st, 2003, 03:04 PM

THE STARLOST: the incredible adventure of a giant spacecraft carrying the survivors of a dead planet Earth on the most critical mission ever launched by man: an endless journey across the Universe in search of a new world. Earthship ARK: hundreds of miles long... a huge grapelike cluster of metal domes, each a tiny world isolated from all the others. In the countless generations that have lived and died since the launching of the ARK, everyone has forgotten that the Earth ever existed... forgotten that they are streaking through space on a collision course with disaster. Forgotten... until one man stumbles on the truth: that they are THE STARLOST!
Its an old mid-70's show, made in Canada, with that dull flat color Canadian and British shows tend to unexplainably achieve.

Next to that, Space 1999.

**JPicasso** · Nov 21st, 2003, 03:15 PM

Heh heh, I was gonna mention Space 1999... sigh, but then I didn't and ended up being that much, a little less cool.

oh yeah now that you mention it, there have been no more commercials for it. I think people are getting kind of tired with these lawish shows....all the law and orders, nypd blue, third watch, all the CSI's....etc

Errrr, sounds a little obscure.
Perhaps you could do like NotLKH up there, provide a link to give us a little 'splanation of your show?

BTW! NotLKH? That "StarLost", Read your link, Sounds pretty Cool! Think They'll ever remake it???

Is it being replayed anywhere? SciFi? TNT? ywhere??? Please, if so, be day and time specific...

You sure it was canceled or just moved? I see it on the Toon channel all the time. Maybe it's just repeats, but I've been watching it for a Long time and hardly ever see a repeat.

**Madboy** · Nov 22nd, 2003, 10:33 AM

Bo Selecta isnt cancelled, just end of the series.

Bo Selecta! is an outragously funny, i mean funny program in which people were rubber masks. They take the piss out of celebrities such as Michale Jackson, who on here is Michael *******. Other people are impersonated too such as David Beckam, Scary Spice, Jonathan Ross, Elton John, Ossy Osborne. Its amazing, for more info just search "Bo Selecta!" As far as i know its only shown in UK (though probably US).

The Office

Not cancelled per se, but no more episodes

(Though there is word of a christmas special)

**Madboy** · Nov 22nd, 2003, 12:17 PM

The office is one of the worst TV shows i have ever seen. Ricky Jervais is a nob head, that show is so boring, get a life, GEEEZ!

Its just so cringeworthy and bloody great

Ricky Jervais can be a little annoying out side of the office, also in The Office, but thats the point

**Madboy** · Nov 22nd, 2003, 12:27 PM

As long as you like it

I'm glad that piece of **** FULL HOUSE came to an end. I hope all of the characters of that show die in a pool of their own urine. I have never seen anything more annoying and pathetic than that show.

**Something Else** · Nov 24th, 2003, 06:07 AM

Empty Nest and Kristy McNichol was extremely watchable.
Always liked Richard Mulligan, too!
