Default Cancelled TV Shows

Ever had a show on TV that you look forward to each week only to find that it's been cancelled due to lack of viewers.

Theres not many shows on TV that I tune in for, but the one I do, its been cancelled at the end of the current season. So many different characters in that show I like.

Third Watch. Just aired episode 7 of season 6. The last episode will be number 22. After that, the show is finished.

Last one that got canned was after 1 season. That was "Now & Again" Was canned in 2000.

So anyway, what shows do you like that have just be cancelled for no other reason than for ratings.

i love arrested development- I can't believe it hasn't been more popular over here- bloody funny show.

this was on late at night last summer, late this summer and it disappeared to about 1am now- I don't think it's axed yet, but by the end of the thread it probably will be.

I bought season 1 on DVD and watched the whole 3 discs on boxing day- she understands now the show was worth waiting up til 11pm to watch and can't understand why it hasn't been more popular too..........

I'm just going to keep buying the DVD's out of the US if they don't turn up here.......

I miss Scubs too if Arrested Development doesn't count.........

Mate it gets worse. I have season 2 of Arrested development, ordered it from the states etc, anyway there is a season 3 currently being produced, with 12 episodes only.

Fox decided to axe this show due to ratings, dispite its total of 7 emmys, 5 of which it gained in its first season. I think you must admit that fox marketing don't know what their doing half the time.

you're joking!? can't believe they'd drop it- it's an awesome show- hop they give it time to wrap up rather than just stop it- I hate it when they do that to shows- that officially never have an ending. Definately my favorite show.

Miss Ned and Stacey too...

Third watch still going in Aus? that show finished ages ago, it was a bloody good last series though, I wish they would release them on dvd, but looks doubtful. Scrubs isn't cancelled guys, whoever is showing it in Aus just sucks, season 5 started in US yesterday . We basically get scrubs all year round here because they repeat seasons so often, they've repeated season 1 twice back to back.

The Shield. Don't know what happened to it. It was on one week then it wasn't the next. I also miss the Sopranos, the final season is currently being filmed and is supposed to air sometime this year.
