Thought this was an interesting question and I’m sure there’s lots of suggestions out there.

Limitless was such a good TV show - funny with great character dynamic. I watched it on Netflix and thought it was a glitch when I got through the last episode of the first season and nothing else came up. It was another victim of CBS chopping decent shows to keep on dreck.

Hannibal and Dead Like Me get mentioned every time this thread is made, but for good reason.

I still can't believe they cancelled Arrested Development after 3 seasons and never made any more.

1899

I'm still heartbroken Netflix cancelled it because it had the unfortunate timing of airing at the same time as Wednesday. The directors' previous series, "Dark", was a proper mindfuck.

[-] mabd@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

I will never forgive Netflix for this one. A true wtf. So much money and talent put into it and then canceled because it didn't earn a crapload of money in the first month. Idiots. I'm glad Dark wasn't made now or it would also be canceled after one season.

I Am Not Okay With This

Had a great first season on Netflix, then got cancelled. I think it had to do with COVID, but still, that was a horrible cliffhanger ending. Any kind of continuation would be amazing.

Mindhunter, without a doubt.

I'm still sad when I think of what could've been

If you've only watched it on Netflix, there is an episode they trimmed because it was viewed as racist (which is stupid because it was Veridian Dynamics being racist and the show was calling it out). Episode is called Racial Sensitivity and the only way I know of to watch it is to fly the black flag.

It's such a great episode, and it actually happens too

Have an upvote. Loved this show and still tell people to watch it. So many brilliant moments from the series and I bring them up to people at work. Sadly missed.

Chappelle Show or everybody hates Chris

Another Dexter season. I want to see if they can make a worse finale than the two they already did.

Flash forward.

Got cancelled after one season. Obviously it ended without any real answer as to what/why the event in the show occurred.

This has haunted me for so many years...

Altered Carbon! season 2 was left open ended because it was supposed to get a 3rd season.

Stargate Universe! The way it ended was so unfair and yet the perfect setup for something new. There’s been rumors brewing for years and years at this point but nothing concrete has happened yet.

[-] yunggwailo@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Adventure Time. It really needed one more season to fully flesh out the storylines they set up. Cartoon Network really screwed them (and other shows like SU) over

[-] DLBPointon@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Stargate!

SGA - there was a planned season 6 where Atlantis ended up going through time, then to the triangulum galaxy and more time hijinks. Atlantis Vs Atlantis and peace in the Pegasus galaxy. You can find it on the josephmallozi blog as Stargate Atlantis virtual season 6

SGU - had so much potential and season 2 was good. It ended with the crew going into stasis to travel the gap between galaxies...

Limitless was sweet spot and had great potential, I liked Chuck and White Collar and Limitless was great series to watch after work and have just fun.

Better off Ted

Pushing Daisies

ETA: I should've finished reading this thread. Of course these two would be mentioned!

[-] Skellybones@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Ash vs the evil dead I really liked this show but it got cut off at the end sadly, it was cheesy but fun to watch

[-] Wxnzxn@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

I don't know, while I agree with wanting more of it, Gravity Falls feels like a show that perfectly managed to wrap up. I'd be wary if I heard another season was in the works, fearing a fanbait nostalgia cash-in.

[-] jerome@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Live action Cowboy Bebop. Loved that show, idc what people said.

The Brink.

How the fuck did a hilarious show with Jack Black as one of the showrunners not get a second season. It's probably one of the better things HBO has pumped out.

Did you like the new show from the creator: The Dragon Prince?

Star Trek: TOS

[-] romaselli@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Sense8 for sure, that show was awesome but Netflix pulled the plug because apparently it was way too expensive to film.

[-] jetsetdorito@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Sense8. There's nothing else quite like it. I really wanted to see more of that story, I'll never forgive Netflix for cancelling it.

[-] veng@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

The Wire. It would probably ruin things but it was too damn good. Some of the best characters' actors have died since unfortunately.
