Unhappy Favorite shows that have been cancelled....

I really liked Alicia Silverstone's show "Miss Match". However, I am not surprised it was cancelled. A show about a matchmaker can only go so far before the creativity is gone. I liked the episodes that I did see. Plus, the clothes were so awesome.



you can pick any cancelled show....but here are cancelled shows of this year:

"Miss Match"
"Whoopi"
"The Lyons Den"
"Karen Sisco"
"Forever Eden"
"Life With Bonnie"
"The District"
"The Help" (what a shock )
"The Handler"
"Boomtown"

The District - I'm mad it was cancelled, I really liked it, although it did change a lot after Lynn Thigpen died.

The Handler - A really good show with a great cast and a lousy time slot. It's too bad they didn't move it around and find an audience for it, it was really a well done show.

Boomtown - It was really good, and I think it had the same timeslot problems - not to mention the famous NBC Invisibility. NBC seems to love leaving some of their shows to twist in the wind with no publicity while they hype other shows that either already have a big following or are crap. They do the same thing to Third Watch.

And some of the past...

Millenium - It was dark, creepy and hard to follow at times, but it was a really good show.

Fastlane - One of the actors looked like Tom Cruise, it was weird. It was a good premise, even with Tiffani Thiessen lol.

Whose Line Is It Anyway? - This show was hilarious! I just don't get why it vanished. The Brit version is even funnier, and I can't even find that on TV anywhere...

Dharma and Greg - I don't even know why it got cancelled...bad time slot? It was a good show.

That 80s Show - I thought it was funny. Apparently I was the only one lol.

Titus - Christopher Titus is hilarious. I loved this show...it was a totally dysfunctional family sitcom lol.

My mom was mad they cancelled Karen Sisco and my sister was pissed about Birds of Prey being offed. I never watched either, so I can't say whether it was warranted or not=) I liked American Fighter Pilot too.

Dark Angel - I really liked the first season. The second season was really odd, and they changed it to Friday night. I was bitter when it went off.

i used to have a crush on that guy because of that show



Two shows that I used to really like, "Pretender" and "Profiler". I think that it was just too weird for most people.

Babylon 5 *
Buffy
Angel
Futurama
Star Trek: TNG (and TOS, though I wasn't around for it)
Quantum Leap
Dark Angel
Doctor Who

...are we detecting a theme here??

* Babylon 5 was planned as a 5-year story arc, so it's not surprising that it went off the air after 5 seasons. The trouble came when the network started talking about cancelling the show after only 4 seasons. The creator, J. Michael Straczynski, had to scramble with rewrites to try to tell the final two years of the story in one season... then the network turned around and renewed B5, so JMS had to come up with some story to tell during the resurrected fifth season, and, well... it wasn't the best season of the show... not surprisingly.

"Who's Line is it Anyways" reruns are on ABC Family usually weeknights around 10ish or 11ish. I think I've seen the British version reruns on Comedy Central as well, but I think it was at random times, like weekends or something.

My So Called Life for sure--- damn I love The N reruns!

Fastlane. Watched it a few times but Peter Facinelle (the Tom Cruise look alike) was a HOTTIE.

Jackass... the knock-offs are way annoying... well cept Bam.

Whoopi.... she got away with making fun of every race and ethnicity and it was funny as hell!

Fastlane - Yeah it was stupid but I liked it

Family Guy - but aren't they bringing it back??

There was another show that I watched for a bit, but I can't remember the name. Debbie MAzar was in it. She played a hairstylist.
