There's talk about a Pushing Daisies comic continuation too.
There's talk about a Pushing Daisies comic continuation too.
Arrested Development, Firefly, and Futurama are my top three, in that order.
I'd cancel the entire Fox News Channel.
Ironically, all three of my top cancelled shows ran on Fox.
I neglected to put Futurama on my list partially because they have all those DVDs being made now, and partially because said DVDs have tainted my love for the show.
So sad about Pushing Daisies.
It pretty much made my heart burst with Awww-ness every time I watched it. Probably my favorite new show in recent years and it didn't even get a full season. God damn writer's strike.
Firefly, obviously. And Arrested Development.
It didn't get canceled (well, I mean, it was put out of its misery after season 5), but Alias basically got smurfed up the ass during it's last few seasons and nothing TV-wise stings more than that. Because it's probably my favorite show ever, and to see something so fantastic descend into utter <img src="http://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gif" alt="skull" /><img src="http://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gif" alt="skull" /><img src="http://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gif" alt="skull" /><img src="http://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gif" alt="skull" /> was heartbreaking and really difficult to watch. But I kept watching and hoping, and it was like a kick in the groin with every new episode.
I would cancel all the CSI shows, The Hills, and the reincarnation of 90210.
Firefly and Arrested Development were two of the greatest shows to ever grace the small screen. Luckily, they are both get their turn on the big screen and with all of the major actors returning to their parts! Angel was also another one that was good, but at least that didn't end too prematurely.
I'd probably cancel American Idol, So You Think You Can Dance? or one of those other horribly crappy shows that shouldn't have money wasted on them.
Pushing Daises was also super good but didn't stand a chance from the beginning. It was too different and beautiful and America hates those things.
In during Firefly and Arrested Development. Also going to add Space: Above and Beyond.
Would cancel Eastenders. Or Hollyoaks. Or Emmerdale. Or any <img src="http://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gif" alt="skull" /><img src="http://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gif" alt="skull" /><img src="http://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gif" alt="skull" /><img src="http://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gif" alt="skull" /> like that. I'd rather have reality TV than any daytime soap.
Or maybe The Simpsons, that'd be an act of mercy at this point.
So You Think You Can Dance is brilliant! Through what other medium could the general uninformed masses be exposed to genius like the Alvin Ailey dancers? Honestly, it's one of the few TV shows that actually exposes people to more than just talent and entertainment, but actual fine art.Originally Posted by Bunny
Firefly and Arrested Development I can quite agree with. I chose Angel as my favorite because I had a nice while to get attached and grow to love it. It had a pretty good run, thankfully. But as for most devastating, it would be Firefly. After Fox smurfs up Dollhouse I'll be back in this thread with another show on my list.
So You Think You Can Dance? is my guilty pleasure :aimblush: I hate myself for it a bit.
Edit:
Wow, that's cool. I hope it happens. But in comic book form Olive can't effectively burst into song like the sexy freak she is. Le sigh.

Flight of the Concords was pushed back in Australia, till it could no longer be pushed back... thus *axed*
T_T! Australians in general aren't ready for such brilliance yet.
Bender's Big Score wasn't up to the standards of the original show, but it also wasn't as bad as everyone said it was. I've yet to watch The Beast with a Billion Backs.
In any case, full-length DVDs aren't really the same as new episodes; the pacing is completely different.
Yeah, the pacing is the problem. Beast With a Billion Backs is blah, and Bender's Game is just... bizarre.
Futurama, The Critic, Pushing Up Daisies, Megas XLR, The New Adventures of Johnny Quest, and Moral Orel.
I'd cancel pretty much every drama, sitcom, and reality series out there cause most television shows are rubbish anyway but if I had to be specific... Any cop show, all the Law and Order shows, all shows with CSI in the title, and both VH1 and G4. Yes I do mean the entire channels.
No more Pushing up Daisies... well at least I still have Burn Notice....
True beauty exists in things that last only for a moment.
Current Mood: And it's been a long December and there's reason to believe. Maybe this year will be better than the last. I can't remember all the times I tried to tell myself. To hold on to these moments as they pass...
Law and Order SVU is amazing though T_T!
That would have been an act of mercy 8 years ago.
My favourite cancelled show: Farscape. I won't bother mentioning my other choices as they've all been mentioned already.
I'd probably cancel Pushing Daisies. Oh wait, nevermind. I guess I'll go with every show that's like American Idol and every reality TV series.
I know there were plenty of factors but i'd like to blame J.J Abrams for leaving this to go work on Lost!
he didnt even finish what he started in the final season!
