After been desperate to watch the gifted and not finding it anywhere cheap, hurrah, Disney plus has it. Loved it...till I found it was cancelled after season 2 Sad

More that gutted me:-
Firefly
Dollhouse
Dark Angel
Hex

There’s probably more that I will add but these are off the go of my head

MagicSummer · 17/05/2021 14:37

Yes to Flashforward - loved it and we had no answers.
Home Fires - about women in WW2 - finished on a cliffhanger.

Same for dark angel, I always wondered what the manticore stage 3 was going to be, but the show in general was good.

I'd say Alcatraz, never explained the inmates and time travel

Then
Town called eureka.
Alphas.
Alias
Spooks
Hustle
Person of interest
Revenge
The lone gunmen
Relic hunter
La femme nikita (the one with peta Wilson in it)

Came on to say Pushing Dasies, it was SO GOOD 😭😭😭

My name is Earl, on a bloody cliff hanger too!
Baby daddy
The Millers, only last a season and a half :-(

The comedy war at home

sunnyday1976 · 17/05/2021 14:44

Indian Summers for me too. It was great.
Also, The Village.

The Get Down, also on Netflix. Such a celebration of life and hip-hop culture, with the vivid exaggeration of reality by Baz Luhrmann that I loved as a young'un in his Romeo & Juliet film. Loved the music, loved the stories, loved the filming. So sad to not get to see how the characters did when they made it to the top (or not).

BearSoFair · 17/05/2021 14:50

Hannibal. 6 years on there's still a huge fan movement to try to get it back, I'm not sure how likely it ever is to happen but I always keep my fingers crossed!

BillywigSting · 17/05/2021 14:51

I'm in agreement with 90% of these and would also like to add Jessica Jones to the list.

I didn't even bother finishing the last season because there didn't seem to be a point if they weren't going to finish the story
