Firefly
ZIM!
Deadwood
Samurai Jack
Batman: The Animated Series
Freakazoid!

I'd say Firefly, but... Serenity kinda ruined that whole concept for me. Thing was sad as hell.

So, I got nothin' outside of that.

Lots of good suggestions. Can't argue with any of them.
My one for the producers table though... Cos that's essentially what we are playing here (And I think people should start pitching WHY the show would be brought back. As bad as the reasons were they were all cancelled for a reason.)

Space: Above and Beyond (Reboot)
15 years after the climactic cliffhanger the Wildcards have a new line-up.
McQueen is on the verge of retiring and passing the baton to the next commander of the Wildcards.
The tense peace that was attained in the interim between its cancellation and reboot is shattered in the pilot of the new series as the Chigs launch a new strike against the UEF.
The 58th are called to lead a catastrophic counter-offensive and will be led by a Wildcard who served in the first Chig war.
Over the series arc the 58th will be posted aboard the Saratoga and conduct major frontline missions "In space, on land and at sea"

Airing on SyFy and aimed at the demographic that enjoyed the new naturalistic sci-fi and I see it as Vietnam in space.
It wouldn't be as dark as Galactica or SG:U but wouldn't be light-hearted either.
Our intitial statement would be as defining as R.D Moores statement from the BSG bible.

I ask you fellow escapists... Does that interest you or just the straight "Bring back Firefly"

My wishlist:

Firefly - awesome SciFi
Space Above & Beyond - had real potential
Crusade - the B5 spin off that never had chance to really get going
The Dresden Files - beats the snot out of Harry Potter everytime
Twin Peaks - Lynch weirdness that had just started to get really creepy


to name but a few of the fallen who's time was cut tragically short

Babylon 5.

Seriously, that show rocked - so long as Strasinski was forcefully prevented from writing dialogue.

Wild Boys. I was actually starting to enjoy it.

Plus I can't forget Firefly. Fuck you Fox, for ruining it before everyone knew how good it was.

SG:U
Firefly
Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip (...an intelligent comedy, that understands that slastick doesn't have to mean everyone involved is immature or bullying... it can't be so!)

Firefly, too. And Duck Tales for nostalgias sake.
And I would want 5 minutes more of Stargate Universe where it is made clear, that the whole crew died in their stasis capsules. The end.

Are you friggin kidding me? FIREFLY!!!

what other TV show is more deserving? It only lasted one season, made a movie for its small loyal fan base which then grew to a HUGE fan base. Even Nathan Fillion has said if he had the money he would bring it back to fill in the holes. Not sure if hes honest but its a nice gesture someone will hopefully pick up on.

Earth 2. I re-watched the series on DVD a while back and it was just so awesome. It couldn't last very long, maybe only 3-4 seasons, but I really want to see this show reborn.

Firefly. [...] First FOX plays the episodes in the wrong order, then blames the show for the low amount of viewers.
They did that? NBC did the same thing with Earth 2 back in the day. What is it with TV networks and sci-fi shows?
...and looks like I need to watch Firefly.
