TV Shows which aired for a short time but left an Impression? (merged)

DVD Talk Legend
My first thought was "Space Rangers". Only six episodes, but really well done. Should have gotten a whole season, at least.
I also greatly enjoyed "Greg the Bunny" and the live action version of "The Tick".

Plus, it ended the season on a cliffhanger, which I don't believe was ever resolved, considering it was canceled.
There was also this one comedy/drama on USA based on a TV movie they produced - The Huntresses or something. It was about a mother/daughter bounty hunter team, and it wasn't great TV, but I always looked forward to watching the episodes. It was canceled far too quickly.

I also liked the new Fantasy Island with Malcolm McDowell.While I'm at it, I liked Miss Match, My Guide to Becoming a Rock Star, That 80's Show, and Pasadena.
And I really liked Popular and Lone Gunmen, along with all of the shows I listed in my first post.

I think I wqrote a letter to NBC to complain about them taking it off the air...a lot of good that did.

In terms of BBC shows, I'd have to say: Fawlty Towers, Knowing Me, Knowing You, and The Office.
All amazing shows that never had a chance to jump the shark.

DVD Talk Hall of Fame
The Marshall Chronicles - 6 episodes
Flying Blind (with Thomas Haden Church from Wings and a smoking hot Tea Leoni) - 22 episodes
Looking these up on TV Tome, I just found out they were both created by Richard Rosenstock who writes for Arrested Development.
The Famous Teddy Z - 20 episodes. Good to see John Cryer finally get a hit show
Ned and Stacey (again, Lowell from Wings!) Though it did last two seasons, it should've been much longer.
And of course, any show Judd Apatow is involved with.
