Travellers. Magicians. If I had to choose only one, it would be Magicians, that show really needed one last season.

Inside Job.

I didn't really watch shows on Netflix and I couldn't care less about people complaining about their shows being cancelled left and right. But Inside Job was recommended by my friend and I loved it. After finding out it was cancelled after 2 seasons, I finally understood the pain these people were feeling all along...

I really enjoyed that show. I tried to get friends who liked Tron to watch it, but none of them seemed interested.

I liked it a lot. I always called that show X-Men without the costumes.

Drive, starring Nathan Fillion and Emma Stone. Didn't even last a season.

Limitless.

The movie was pretty superfluously a power fantasy, but the show had actual likeable characters, and long-term intrigue. As far as cop procedurals go, it was way up there.

Santa Clarita Diet

Santa Clarita diet, fun little zombie show on Netflix

[–] Edgarallenpwn@midwest.social 1 points 1 year ago

The Get Down was such a good show with a fun aesthetic. It was about the birth of hip hop but talked a lot about the politics and culture at the time. It lasted 2 seasons on Netflix and somewhat on a cliffhanger for a few characters, and I wish they got another season or two to fully wrap it up.

My constant responses to this question is obviously Flash Forward.

Boy was that a great show, with an amazing premise. I think about this show to this day.

The TV movie follow-ups were not good.

[–] nokturne213@sopuli.xyz 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I think I watched part of one.

Fringe. It was cancelled by being given one last short season. It deserved far more seasons.

[–] bjoern_tantau@swg-empire.de 1 points 1 year ago

I actually liked that the show got a proper ending. This post shows that there are too many series that just pucker out without getting any plotlines resolved. Fringe had coherent seasons that all did something different instead of staying with a monster of the week formula.

“Happy”, I think a lot of people overlooked it because Christopher Meloni having a cartoon unicorn as a companion seemed cheesy, but the show wasn’t afraid to dive into truly horrific plot lines.

The less-grounded corner of my brain thinks the show was cancelled because it was openly talking about skeletons in the closets of network executives.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I tried watching it, but I can't handle a child at the mercy of a killer.

[–] GregorGizeh@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 year ago

Star Trek: enterprise. Probably not the best Trek show but it got dropped right when it had found its stride. Also I enjoyed the temporal war arc, which most trek fans seemed to hate. Would have loved to see the stuff they later revealed in interviews that was planned, like archer himself becoming the suliban leader from the future.

[–] AceFuzzLord@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

I don't know the scoop on whether or not it's actually cancelled or if season 6 is in Max/Cartoon Network limbo or what is even going on with it, but I'm saying Summer Camp Island.
