Firefly
1899
I'm still heartbroken Netflix cancelled it because it had the unfortunate timing of airing at the same time as Wednesday. The directors' previous series, "Dark", was a proper mindfuck.
Dark was amazing. I didn't bother with 1899 after I heard that it was cancelled.
I think I'm developing a fear of commitment with shows these days, with so many cancelations
My Name is Earl
The OA. Fuck Netflix for canceling it.
Also 1899.
I probably shouldn't be surprised, but I can't freaking believe that someone has the same two answers as me. We'll get through this, friend.
i can think at least three reasons:
- great minds think alike
- those are great shows
- netflix sucks
Altered Carbon! season 2 was left open ended because it was supposed to get a 3rd season.
Unironically Mindhunter. I'm so mad it's been canceled. Such a great show.
Prodigy (Star Trek) just got canceled, that's on my mind right now. They had a lot of story left to tell.
Final Space.
Olan had one season left before the company buried the show as a tax write off
Reading this made me look it up. Final Space was more than a one season show?? Guess I have some catching up to do.
If you missed it, Olan got a deal to put out a hardback graphic novel tying up the show, called Final Space Ends. Upside: a real ending. Downside: not a show, not available digitally(one of Warner's conditions), and it's $125. Tentatively scheduled to ship late next year.
So realistically it doesn't have an ending, because there is a zero percent chance I will ever pay $125 for it...
Firefly
People have already beaten me to Firefly over and over again so I'll add one likely to have been forgotten:
Carnivale.
Ended on an unbelievable cliffhanger, left SO MUCH unanswered, could've run for another decade. I'm re-mad that this show got canceled now.
Game of thrones, but itβs the new series 7 and it rewrites original 7 and 8 and they donβt exist anymore.
Fringe
firelfy
Deadwood. The movie was too little way too late.
As a HUGE deadwood fan, i agree. Its probably my overall #1 favorite show of all time. I felt like the movie was Milch calling in before his disease took him completely.
Better off Ted
Pushing Daisies
ETA: I should've finished reading this thread. Of course these two would be mentioned!
Stargate Universe! The way it ended was so unfair and yet the perfect setup for something new. Thereβs been rumors brewing for years and years at this point but nothing concrete has happened yet.
Pushing Daisies never got the ending it deserved. Everything had to be hastily wrapped up in one entire episode, third season setups were just left as loose ends, and it really didn't do such a great show justice
Adventure Time. It really needed one more season to fully flesh out the storylines they set up. Cartoon Network really screwed them (and other shows like SU) over
Live action Cowboy Bebop. Loved that show, idc what people said.
Expanse, of course
Dead Like Me
Dirk Gently, the BBC America/Netflix one.
First season, phenomenal! Second season was pretty good, not as good as the first but still good. It set up a lot of things that were then not continued and I just want to know what they had planned.
Also Snowpiercer: You've filmed it, you've edited it, just let us see it!
(Edit: posted this as a reply to someone else. My bad!)
Santa Clarita Diet
Raised By Wolves
The Expanse. The show had a satisfying ending but the books went a bit further into the future and I'd like to see more in the shows.
