Solid tie between Firefly and Farscape. Yea, I know Farscape technically "ended" with the movie, but I still want that show back. Well, technically firefly tried to end with a movie as well, but whatever.
You have the power to bring back one cancelled TV show...

Swat Kats, definitely Swat Kats. Ted Turner, you sunuvabitch, why did you have to cancel one of the most awesome shows of my childhood? The show was one of the most popular syndicated animated shows of its time, with it's comic book style animation, over the top villians, and sweet guitar riffs, and you cancelled it? You BRAINLESS OLD FOOL! >8C
...Sorry. I liked that show.

What a great question, man I have no idea.
I want to say Futurama, but it has been brought back, albeit only 13 episodes per year instead of 26. I'd choose to have that come back as a full season first and foremost.
I'd say BSG, but it did have a finale...
Hmmm...I will go with Legend of the Seeker. Very well done (with some exceptions) and thoroughly enjoyable. Cancelled before its time.

I was thinking Father Ted before I finished reading the set of rules... and thought... well, Father Ted officially ended. And then Dermot Morgan went on a dinner with friends and had a stroke.Matthew94 said:

Father ted is one of the best comedies ever, it would be great if it came back.
I'm still watching Father Ted, or just have it running on some iDevice. It manages to make me laugh and smile and get over so many things that might just ruin my mood.
So, while I personally believe I wouldn't grow tired after a hundred Father Ted episodes, the series doesn't qualify since it was planned to be over by then. Had Dermot Morgan lived beyond getting it all in the can, his Father Ted character would have been a bit suicidal for not going to America, I hear. As sad as it all is, I think the cut and ending we got is, in a way, as close to perfection as possible.
I would use my magical über-Murdoch powers to resurrect Black Books. That's another one that still manages to make me grin and smile and get high on silliness alone. Manny and the little book of calm or "Grapes of Wrath" are still splendid fun.
Because it sells more. Its way easier to go the fart joke route then the dark humor route for kids. Not counting that Fanboy & Chum Chum play it almost completly safe and re-use and re-hash jokes to make everything sell. Trust me, kids love them fart jokes.... Still miss ya' zim.Josh12345 said:
Case Closed, the only anime I ever loved is closed after 2 seasons, damn you.... [sub]damn you.[/sub]
Well...*****, you ruined it for me in the first few lines, I WANT MORE SCRUBS DAMNIT!Strain42 said:

Wonderfalls. A great funny tv show that aired the first episode on Fox, they decided to shift it from the prime time of 8pm to another day of primetime competing with a very well known top show, so it still got low veiws. They then changed it to just after Monday night football. Then gave up and never aired the 10 other episodes along with it.
Fox paid to make it and then didnt want to show it and killed it. Makes no sense.
The tv show was about a girl that made a wish in a fountain by the Niagara falls were she works in a gift shop. After that inanimate objects come to life and start giving her commands to change her luck. So with the constant attempts at trying to figure if she is crazy. She is being given crazy advice. Such as "Go over to that old woman....knock her over!" She eventual complies and it turns out to be a good thing.
Great show miss it.
Here is the theme tune.

Oh god! TWIN PEAKS! when i saw the last episode i almost shit my pants and and cried for another season.
Universally, I think Firefly. But I would love another season of The Vicar of Dibley... especially if they brought Richard Armitage back!
SO many people will say Firefly, and I have to agree since watching it recently. It ends at a point that just makes you feel sad wanting more ): I suppose Serenity concluded it, but more Firefly would be great.
Otherwise "Crusade" a spin-off from Babylon-5. It only got half a series as far as I can remember.

Firefly!
But I would kill for any of the following not to have been canned:
Farscape, Invader Zim(Vasquez needs to be left to his creative maddness, I like maddness), Dollhouse fucking Dollhouse ,Carnival...
There are too many. And I blame fox for half of them.

FIREFLY! You can't stop the signal, its still going strong after all this time!
EDIT: The video is 'flan'-made, worth a look if you're a browncoat!
I have 2 really.
One is My Name Is Earl(as with many others here). I only recently found out it was actually cancelled. It ended on a cliffhanger. Also Earl never finished his list. I would possibly pay to see a resolution to that.
The other is Reaper. It ended on an incredibly unsatisfying ending that only added insult o injury by adding on a whole "God moves in mysterious ways" reasoning.
I would have been happy if they'd done a quick rewrite where Sam does win his soul and then just does a happily ever after. Not the best ending but better than "ever one is screwed but God has a plan".
I really wish producers would show more commitment to a show. If I ever succeed in becoming a super villain and taking over the world then one of my main rules will be that no show once started and past Pilot stage may be cancelled until a conclusion is reached. It would mean some terrible stuff would stay up but it would be worth it.
