Favorite Failed TV show?

[Flap Jack452]

Pushing Daisies was excellent. The best show I've ever seen by far. I wish SyFy would pick it up. It only ran for 1.75 seasons...the last few episodes weren't even aired!

I think you and I are the only people that thought so.

Add me to that list. I loved its quirky charm, though the way the pie maker would always talk really fast and say things like "Even though you already knew that at the time, but I wasn't aware that you were aware I wasn't aware.", did test my nerves a little bit. All the characters had good personality though.

Traveler was also a great show. Once they learned that it was being cancelled mid season they tried to wrap up the season in one episode... and failed.

I'm expecting at least 100 Firefly mentions here. If not then there is something wrong with humanity.

Futurama anyone? We have the ubiquitous Fox network to thank for its disappearance from the airwaves.

We are getting straight to DVD movies now though.

Alien Nation. What a shock---another show cancelled by the damn Fox network. The funny thing wasn't that the show got cancelled---it's that the show got axed despite high ratings because the network decided it didn't want to do dramatic shows.

Ren and stimpy ad Rocko's modern life.

I loved Ren And Stimpy i wish that they were back on air that would be awsome.

Enterprise... Shut up, it made way more sense than any other Star Trek.

I know lots consider it a failure because no one liked it, but I thought it was the best Star Trek evar. In fact I never really liked the others.

Agree with you 100%. It was a good show and I was a lot more comfortable with Enterises aesthetics than I was with the other shows. The whole thing looked more...grittier, advanced looking, and REAL. Unlike the other shows that showed this cold, sterile, and lacking in character look to it.

Plenty of them. Traveler was great, Moonlight was great, and Fringe was great.
But then American Idol had to be two hours and Fringe just disappeared...It was looking to be a great show to, as only about three episodes aired...
I'm most pissed that Traveler got canceled though.

 

[Kogarian]

Futurama and Firefly.

Stupid FOX.

Add me, too! :] I was absolutely in love with Olive- Kirsten Chenoweth is amazing, and the whole basic premise of the show was so original and fresh. I'm tired of seeing all of the same murder mystery shows on air. [Suddenly remembers that Lie To Me is on tomorrow] Aw, yeah!- ..oh.

Invader Zim

Well, Lie To Me is completely different, because he detects lies... n stuff.

 

[Aschenkatza]

Courage the Cowardly Dog, and all the shows made by Genndy Tartakovsky. Oh and Firefly, because that show was ultra bad ass.

Courage the Cowardly Dog still plays though. Cartoon Network has it on from time to time. Not sure if they are all the same eps, but it still plays...

Rocko's Modern Life was awesome. Really miss it sometimes .. D=

 

[Bored Tomatoe]

Futurama, though it is returning.

This.


To make myself feel like I have actually contributed something,
I will leave you all with this:


"The itsy bitsy spider,
Went up the water spout,
Down came the rain and
washed the spider out,
Then came the sun and
dried up all the rain,
while the itsy bitsy
spider went up the spout again."

Thank you and good night.
