Cancelled TV shows that you thought had potential

[unhealthy]

chicago code

This. Loved that show.


Adding Golden Boy

Louie is basically the same show without the cursing though.

I really liked this one too. Not sure why it didn't make it.

 

[melvinj0]

"Testees" on FX was pretty hilarious.

 

[Diablo Ryu**]

I forgot about that lights out show...and john from Cincinnati. ..my vote goes to party down

 

[iThrillhouse]

John Doe
V
The Event
Surface
Flash Forward
Day Break

ABC and NBC really didn't give their dramas a chance

I would say FlashForward and Awake had the most potential of shows cancelled after 1 season

Breakout Kings

I enjoyed this, but felt like it really became stagnant in the last season.

Titus

Good show, but after a while I felt like I was watching the same episode over and over. Titus is great to see live. His brand of life lessons and observational humor really sucks the audience in.

The River

Really enjoyed this.

Would add:

 

[Flemmy Stardust]

Stella. not really, though.

It was funny as hell but too quirky for its time.

 

[Flemmy Stardust]

my brother and me

GOOO PUNCH!

i must have seen all 5 episodes 20 times each.

Bishes can't even stand up straight by themselves, what kind of crazy TV show is this?

 

[sideboob]

Carnivale and Odyssey 5 both guilty pleasures that should have lasted longer than they did....

 

[Daverisimo]

Firefly and Freaks and Geeks are almost too obvious to mention. If I were to make a list of my top five best first seasons, they'd probably both make it on.

The first and only show to ever be filmed at Casa Magnetica.

Heroes

Yeah I know there were 4 seasons. But I wanted MOAR!!!

The last season left us hanging

 

[Substance Abuse]

Amen!

Serenity was horrible. It was cancelled for a reason.

Freaks and Geeks is my pick

It's Firefly noobs. Now GTFO w/ that shit.

Firefly is the only appropriate answer to this question. Now shut this bish down!

 

[El Chimpo]

Angel being canceled for fucking smallville pisses me the fuck off

 

[streets ahead]

There was a show called Brimstone that I thought was ahead of it's time. Got canceled.

 

[rocketskates]

Chicago Code. Seems all police procedurals revolve around LAPD or NYPD. One of the reasons The Wire was so enjoyable.

 

[WhatAboutBob]

Prime Suspect starring Maria Bello

 

[Its Me Austin]

CBS remade the Fugitive back in the early part of last decade. I really enjoyed the few episodes that aired until it was cancelled for a new show you may have heard of called CSI.
