@sunshineanddaisies made me think of this from the TV shows that sucked after the first season thread. What were your favorite shows that were cancelled before they had time to really shine? Or were put in a horrible time slot and never really given a chance. Edit-Fixing tag sunshinedaisies

I think I have fairly cheesy taste in TV shows so while I can see why some of these were cancelled I was still bummed. Human Target The Glades Timeless The Player Limitless ... I'm sure I'll think of more later.

Pushing Daisies was so good. I think the writer strike did it in.

Reunion. They cancelled it mid-season so they didn't even finish the story. I boycotted Fox shows for years to follow because this cancellation made me grumpy.

Firefly. Obviously.
Almost Human. I didn't watch it because it got cancelled so fast and we binge watch either DVDs or on a streaming service but I love Karl Urban and was really looking forward to it.
Galavant. Getting a second season at all was a gift but I love that show and wish more people would have watched it.

I actually did like Raising Hope despite it being on someone's list in the other thread.
Agree with Don't trust the B.
Adding some shows that ended: Monk, Burn Notice, Gilmore Girls, Life (2 or 3 season show that was detectivey), Veronica Mars

CeeBug It's so fun. It's on Netflix and sometimes I just flip around to my favorite musical numbers in it. spooko Veronica Mars for sure! The third season was such a disappointment for me because they knew they were likely getting cancelled so it just seemed kind of aimless at the end. I liked the movie though.

I do think the first season was much better than the 2nd.

I also loved The Killing. The first season was great, the second and third were good and I would have loved to see more. The two lead actors really intrigued me.

Along the Joss Whedon line, I wish Dollhouse could have been longer.

Probably one of my favorite "series" finales. I was so upset when they decided to go on another season or two.

I have one more to add. I LOVED How to Make it in America on HBO. I think they only made 2 seasons and I was really disappointed they didn't keep it around.
