Cowboy Bebop, the live action one.

I know that a lot of teh fans of the original anime series hated it, but I never liked that and really enjoyed the live action one.

Also Star Trek: Prodigy.

My name is Earl. One more season and it could have been perfect.

Westworld. It was the final sason, had already been renewed, was already in pre-production, and they paid all the actors. But new management trashed it for a tax writeoff

Constantine.

Santa Clarita Diet. I just liked the characters, the actors have some real strong performances, and the plot was going down some interesting paths with the society of zombie hunters.

Better Off Ted was SO GOOD 😭

Edit: Almost forgot about Day 5. It was a Rooster Teeth webseries and some of that showed in the script and acting, tbh. But holy shit it was such a cool premise. Big mad that I'll probably never find out wtf happens to that world.

Firefly. Upset now and for forever.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 hours ago

I still rewatch the series and movie every few years and get pissed off at the end all over again.

Yeah me too… but knowing how Josh Whedon operates, fuck Josh Whedon

Raised By Wolves

It was a polarizing show, but my sci-fi heart loved it. Also the intro music was hauntingly beautiful.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

I went over the wikipedia entry, and that show is just as weird and opaque as I remember it.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 hours ago

We never really got any answers to a lot of questions in the show. I actually loved how weird it was.

Came here for this. Still hoping someone will restart it at some point. It had excellent world building.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 21 hours ago

Disney really f'up when they bought fox: gifted and runaways, AOS, all the X-men related spinoffs.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 day ago (4 children)

The forever answer to this is Firefly.

But as for others: Babylon 5, Threshold, Black Books.

The Santa Clarita Diet

It was stupid fun and a different take on the zombie genre with black humor (making death or violence humorous..not the racist one) and only had about one more season to wrap things up

Fuck you Netflix

Also ....can I add Dark Angel?

Netflix cancelling KAOS after one season.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 21 hours ago* (last edited 21 hours ago)

they cancelled blood of zeus, because they dint want to continue the series, it was meant to go on for another 3 seasons. also heard netflix made any showrunners from cancelled shows legally unable to go to another network to continue the series.

Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles. I'm not a big Terminator-head, only seen half of the movies, but that was the version of Terminator I really got into.

TSCC ENDING SPOILERS, STAY OUTThe decision to end the show by having John jump into the post-apocalyptic future was wild, from a production standpoint. You have this show that's in permanent danger of being cancelled and you go "What if we set up our ending so the next season is guaranteed to blow the budget because we can't just film in present-day California any more?" It was a great hook, but I wonder whether they could have gotten a third season if they'd presented a smaller target.

Lodge 49. Someone mentioned that one of the stars said they would jump at the chance to restart the show. You would think that struggling streaming networks would pick up shows that have built-in following.

Veronica Mars should've had a solid 7 seasons in a row

Enterprise and Pushing Daisies

[–] [email protected] 2 points 21 hours ago* (last edited 21 hours ago) (1 children)

enterprise and SGU, im not impressed with nutrek, the way they messed with the continuity in the new series(3 series).

Enterprise was intentional due to Les moonves inteference, i believe the final episode(the poorly recieved and written) was the FU to the viewers from him

SGU was started to get good at season 2, but it was far too late to save it, plus mgm was also bankrupting at the time.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 hours ago

I know Discovery is a bit hokey, but do you not even find the charm and generally upbeat tone of SNW more alike to TOS?

I gritted my teeth through discovery mostly because I was watching it with my housemate, but SNW really felt like I was a kid again watching TOS with my uncle who passed away 15 years ago.

Rome

It was game of thrones, before game of thrones.

Wheel of Time. Incredible story that I've read and reread since I was a child, combined with a stellar cast and some minor changes to have better LGBTQ rep. It got really good and then they axed it.

Carnivàle was the first time I was hurt by a cancellation. It is still the hurtest hurt.

Almost Human

Karl Urban and Michael Ealy made a great pair.

Farscape

One more season instead if the 2 part TV movie we got trying to hastily wrap it all up.
