RadiantFlamberge Posted May 17, 2022 Share Posted May 17, 2022 (edited) Not long after enjoying Magnum P.I.'s season finale, I learned that it was in fact the series finale. What the hell... this was a good show, and its cancellation was one that made no sense. I think it deserved two more seasons. Also, I will miss Card Sharks, The Hustler, and Match Game (ABC). It's a shame these got the axe while drivel like The Bachelor(ette) and Survivor (I tried to give it a chance once, got bored to tears, and turned it off) still lives on. There wasn't much wrong with CS. All the producers needed to do was speed the game up. Joel McHale took a little too long to turn the next card after a "Higher" or "Lower" was called. I was afraid MG would end up cancelled because of the Rust fiasco, but I'm sure that wasn't the reason... actually, new episodes weren't shot since 2020. One of my biggest cancellation letdowns of all time is ABC's dropping Emergence (2019-20) after one season. This sci-fi drama showed some promise and closed its season with a brutal cliffhanger which sadly never saw its resolution. Back in 2015, The Whispers (based on Ray Bradbury's "Zero Hour" but they couldn't call it that because of an earlier ABC show with that name) got stuck with a similar fate.

Popular Post DrBloodmoney Posted May 17, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted May 17, 2022 (edited) Biggest one is Deadwood - one of the best shows ever on TV - right up there with Mad Men.

Raveniteh Posted May 17, 2022 Share Posted May 17, 2022 I am going to go with "Into the Badlands", "Warrior" (although this one might continue, hopefully) and "Deadly Class" 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamescush147 Posted May 17, 2022 Share Posted May 17, 2022 One of the better shows on UPN back in the 90's. It ended on such an amazing cliffhanger too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonesey46 Posted May 17, 2022 Share Posted May 17, 2022 FlashForward. It got one season. It was such an interesting premise too, the whole world blacks out and sees a vision of their future. Of course the first season ended on a massive cliffhanger and we never got to see what came of it. Pretty sure it was made by a lot of the people that were involved with Lost. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super-Fly Spider-Guy Posted May 17, 2022 Share Posted May 17, 2022 There's a million I wish got more, but the only one that really fucks me is Santa Clarita Diet. Points for Angel though, would have loved more of him and Spike's bullshit, last season was great. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post BrandedBerserk Posted May 17, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted May 17, 2022 (edited) I'd have to say Daredevil on Netfilx, as In my opinion, it's the best thing to come from Marvel and also in my top 5 shows of all time but im glad it ended on a high note. Daredevil and Punisher have been my favorite comic book "heroes" since a child so getting to see both of em together in such a masterpiece is something I thought I'd never see.

LastMinuteSavior Posted May 17, 2022 Share Posted May 17, 2022 The only time I felt frustrated for not getting the second season I wanted, was with Spartacus. It simply wasn't the same thing without Andy Whitfield. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaivRules Posted May 17, 2022 Share Posted May 17, 2022 I just learned of DCs Legends of Tomorrow’s series cancellation. I’ve been waiting for it for the last three to four seasons, but the last seasons finale is brutal to end the show on. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KennethMcCormick Posted May 17, 2022 Share Posted May 17, 2022 Deadwood, made only worse by the gigantic cliffhanger at the end of season 3. Greg the Bunny, which at least got a great spin-off with Warren the Ape. And of course Firefly. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HuntingFever Posted May 17, 2022 Share Posted May 17, 2022 (edited) I'm going with "Jericho" and the "Expanse" . Jericho only lasted 2 seasons, before being canned due to low ratings. Season 2 wasn't anywhere near as good as the first one but it ended on a tense cliffhanger we'll never get to see the resolution of. The Expanse has been cancelled twice now, once by the Sci-Fi channel and once by Amazon. I haven't got Amazon Prime so don't know how Season 6 Ended but it's gonna suck if there's a cliffhanger that won't get resolved in what was supposed to be an 8 season run . I don't remember what it was called but there was another Sci-Fi I used to really like which ran on BBC 2 about 20 years ago, that got cancelled before the first season had finished - which is a shame because it was highly original and really tense .

Popular Post Crispy_Oglop Posted May 17, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted May 17, 2022 (edited) These are the ones that stung: The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance Firefly Ash Vs. The Evil Dead The Haunting of... series (We got the Haunting of Hill House and The Haunting of Bly Manor, but that's it) Iron Fist / Luke Cage / Daredevil / Jessica Jones / The Punisher (Hoping Disney+ will do them justice and resurrect them all) I would have said The Expanse, because that did get cancelled, but then it luckily got picked up again by Amazon Prime to see it to the conclusion.
