Your favourite shows that ended/were cancelled?

Mine:

Brothers & Sisters - I was obsessed with this show from the very first episode and may or may not have shed a tear when I found out it was ending after five seasons. I didn't like the ending, it seemed rushed and story lines were left hanging. Twats.

Friends - Of course. Who didn't love Friends?

Accidentally On Purpose - I'm pretty sure this was cut after the first season so can't have been very popular but I loved it!

Without A Trace - My favourite crime drama, I was devastated when it ended. Why couldn't they have taken NCIS?! Why Without A Trace?!

Angry Angry

Your turn...

Has Damages been axed? Shock
Say it ain't so!

Popbiscuit · 10/11/2011 16:25

I liked Lipstick Jungle.

midnightexpress · 10/11/2011 16:26

YY to Deadwood - it was a really great series. Dp and I still use 'cocksucker' as a term of endearment after watching too much of that. Grin

And also to Green Wing. Likewise Black Books. And that fabulous series with Dylan Moran and the actress who died - was it Charlotte Coleman (the sister in 4 Weddings) where they moved near to her ghastly family in the country and he was a photographer. It was great.

onelittleclara · 10/11/2011 16:26

The muppet show

BornSicky · 10/11/2011 16:27

absolutely My So Called Life. One series!! It's a brilliant programme too.

Also, Blackadder. I know, 4 series and the ending was perfect, but would have loved more!

LilPud · 10/11/2011 16:29

Oh there's def been a few-

V - ended stupidly on a major cliffhanger
Lie to Me
No Ordinary Family - one season, really!
The Event - moved to a stupid timeslot so nobody watched it.
Dollhouse

Also agree that Heroes and Angel were ruined by daft endings. They do this all the bloody time but bloody X Factor it just runs and runs!Angry

LadyClariceCannockMonty · 10/11/2011 16:30

midnightexpress, what's the Dylan Moran series called, can you remember? Sounds great. I love the Moran.

Voidka · 10/11/2011 16:31

Law and Order :(

LilPud · 10/11/2011 16:31

Oh and it was a good few years ago but whatever happened to American Gothic??

greatoceanroad · 10/11/2011 16:32

I think the show with the aliens in the lake was called Invasion

kaytola · 10/11/2011 16:33

Heroes
The Event
Lie to Me

ItsonlymeMrsDB · 10/11/2011 16:33

Ally McBeal.

Loved it. And all the dancing.

YankNCock · 10/11/2011 16:34

Dollhouse
FlashForward
Firefly
Daybreak (I think it was called that, guy living the same day over and over)

LadyClariceCannockMonty · 10/11/2011 16:35

Invasion! That was it.

Whatevertheweather · 10/11/2011 16:35

LadyClarice - just googled it - apparently it was cancelled but then got bought by another channel in the US. Series 4 has aired there but there is no plans at the moment to air it here Sad

YankNCock · 10/11/2011 16:35

Law and Order??!?!? It's been on for more than 20 years!

OneOf8 · 10/11/2011 16:35

My so Called Life was great.
Also started to get into Flash forwards... after it had ended and Heros - wasted Mat leave watching that to find its a big gapping nothing as was axed!

I remember the aleien/lake thing - will keep an eye on here in case anyone remembers the title as will drive me crazy else!

kellestar · 10/11/2011 16:36

Dollhouse
Firefly
Tru calling
Jericho
ER

I hate when they rush a series ending and it's a let down.

YankNCock · 10/11/2011 16:36

oh yes, Green Wing

that BBC3 thing from a few years ago, animated....

Monkey Dust, that was it. brilliant.

OneOf8 · 10/11/2011 16:37

hmm - maybe it was an alien thing as opposed to the sp above!

Good to know in the time it takes me to type the title was found Smile

YankNCock · 10/11/2011 16:37

oh I've got one

Enterprise (was gutted when they cancelled that after only 4 seasons)

Have I outed myself as a sci-fi nerd yet? Grin

belgo · 10/11/2011 16:38

Another vote for My So Called Life.

Rosanne was another that I was sad to see go, and had a rubbish rushed ending.

LadyClariceCannockMonty · 10/11/2011 16:38

Gutted about Damages. Sad It was great.

Toobluntforboss · 10/11/2011 16:39

Eli Stone
Allly McBeal
Brothers & Sisters
Lipstick Jungle
Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip
Sarah Connor Chronicles
Jack and Bobby
Don't think Private Practice has been cancelled, just dont think they're showing it here anymore (pity as I love it!)
I'm sure there are loads more that I'm forgetting - I'm a glutton for US TV shows!
