    What TV shows or series got cancelled to your dismay?

    Two come to mind.

    1. Flashforward-I really enjoyed the show and enjoyed the concept. When I found out it was cancelled; I was actually pretty surprised that it was due to poor ratings.

    2. Rome-HBO miniseries. Just an awesome Epic miniseries that made it through 2 seasons. The series abruptly ended just as Augusta Caesar was crowned Emperor of Rome. It apparently was also cancelled because production costs were high and the ratings weren't high enough to continue on. It does appear that the DVD's seem to be pretty popular, so maybe it will prompt HBO to start it back up again?

    What else?

            Earth 2.

            Loved that show...when NBC abruptly canceled it only after one season...and came up with the LAMEST ending...that's where my love for network TV started fading.

              I enjoyed Daisies and Mars. Another one I wished had lasted longer was Defying Gravity.

                It's been twenty years and I'm still upset.

                I almost had a psychic girlfriend but she dumped me before we met.

                If anyone here believes in psychokinesis, please raise my hand.

                    Space Ace Tatsunoko cartoon it has been almost 40 years and I am still disappointed.

                    Saving Grace...so wish they had continued that one.

                          I really liked "The Unit".
                          Also, Heroes - although they were getting kinda carried away, so I wasn't too surprised about it.

                          Edit - Firefly was pretty good too.
