Currently rewatching Mindhunter. Absolutely brilliant show and I could watch it again and again
I can't believe it's been cancelled and we won't see a series 3 ☹️ apparently it costs too much to make, although I really can't see it costs that much especially with shows like stranger things which must cost millions!

What other series are you gutted have been cancelled?

That was me! Wrong thread. Twitchy trigger finger as the last ever Better Call Saul episode is released today.

Whataretheodds · 16/08/2022 10:27

Yes Whitechapel

And yes Rome!!

Archive 81 on Netflix. And The Wilds on Prime - just finished season 2, loved it, ended on a cliffhanger, googled to see if a third season was in the works. Cancelled 😭 I'll never know what happens to the characters, gutted.

The Wilds have really wound me up. Such a cliffhanger!!!! Why cancel it!! Why

Definitely Agent Carter - so good! I haven't even finished the two seasons they did make, because I know it will make me cross.

Also Daredevil, although I live in hope that might come back.

bolleauxnouveau · 16/08/2022 10:39

Bluestone 42 ..but I think it came to a natural end. So many shows keep going when they shouldn't.

SweetestThing · 16/08/2022 10:39

Home Fires.

glamourousindierockandroll · 16/08/2022 10:42

Glow - about the female wrestlers. That was brilliant and was doing amazing 80s nostalgia before Stranger Things.

The OA

I loved Dark but I think it concluded, didn't it? I think the creators have something new coming out.

purpleme12 · 16/08/2022 10:44

It was years ago but Hex.
I loved that show

Really wish Take Me Out and X Factor hadn't been cancelled. I know people love to complain about X Factor but they were just shows you could put on on an evening and not think about

Daredevil is in the upcoming Disney series of She Hulk, and it looks likely that he will be part of Marvel's next phase of films/TV shows, either with his own show again or as part of an ensemble cast.

Netflix is the worst for cancelling great shows. Santa Clarita Diet and Mindhunter mentioned are good examples of that. Also Dark Crystal it was an incredible series and won numerous awards, it seemed a ludicrous decision to cancel it. The shows they decided to spend money on instead were dire. Netflix keeps making poor decisions like that.

The other show that still stings many years on is Jericho.

Soubriquet · 16/08/2022 10:48

Hex!!! Yes! What a weird and quirky show. I enjoyed that too.

Smurftastic · 16/08/2022 10:52

Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance.
Why, Netflix, why?!

So glad someone agrees! I'm not even sure anyone else has known what I'm talking about!
I've still got them on dvd. If I remember rightly it ended on a right cliffhanger as well!!!

heathspeedwell · 16/08/2022 10:58

Rome and Dominion.

Soubriquet · 16/08/2022 10:58

Same! I know someone else who loves it as much as I did and we used to talk about it all the time.

Major cliffhanger yes

Popsicle33 · 16/08/2022 11:06

Mind Hunter, Clarice, Hannibal, Archive81, Whitechapel, Apparitions....so many....

Detectivefictionfan · 16/08/2022 11:27

Ashes to Ashes
Life on Mars
Babylon 5

dannydyerismydad · 16/08/2022 12:09

Pushing Daisies. I absolutely loved the quirkiness of it.

It was cancelled during the Hollywood writers strike a decade or so ago and the ending was totally rushed to wrap everything up.

Saucery · 16/08/2022 12:12

American Gods

BreakfastOfWaffles · 16/08/2022 12:13

YukoandHiro · 16/08/2022 09:44

Yes to Party Animals.

On a similar theme I also loved Absolute Power, which deserved another series at the time. It would look outdated now, so a rebirth wouldn't be possible.

Is that the same Absolute Power that was also on the radio? I didn't realise it was ever a TV show too. About a political PR agency, with Stephen Fry?

MyChipsDontLie · 16/08/2022 12:15

Neighbours.

butterflied · 16/08/2022 12:20

CantStandMeow · 16/08/2022 10:04

The 4400
Flash Forward
Santa Clarita Diet

All left unfinished and I'm disproportionately annoyed by this fact!

I agree with all of these.

Also, I will miss Buffy forever.

purpleme12 · 16/08/2022 12:22

Buffy was brill but I wasn't a fan of the last series

kitchenSink5 · 16/08/2022 12:22

MILLYmo0se · 16/08/2022 09:41

I still havent gotten over 'My So-Called Life' being cancelled after 1 season 30 years ago!

This! Absolutely this.

MrBallLegs · 16/08/2022 12:24

Santa Clarita Diet
Grimm
Bones
Neighbours

As per a pp - how they can cancel the new version of The Time Travellers Wife after just one season is beyond me. It was staying quite faithful to the book.

Firefly
