I almost forgot about Dr. Katz. Comedy Central doesn't even play the re-runs anymore. They should get rid of Strip Mall, TV Funhouse, or Battlebots and put Dr. Katz back on.

Oh well, its my pick and defintely one of the best most original shows ever made.
Great show and it is definitely missed. I always preferred Joel over Mike so I lost some interest before it ended, but when it was good, it was an amazingly good show. Got to meet Mike up here at a book signing last spring and he's just a great, funny, regular guy.

Now & Again (not to be confused with Once and Again, the Sela Ward show from ABC).

Another vote for Newsradio. It was one of the most intelligent comedies I've ever seen, but the public wants six twenty-somethings with looks and nothing to do instead. Even if Lovitz did replace Hartman, he did a good job and Dave Foley was great in it. Oh well......

I remember seeing this show once or twice. It got cancelled after the second episode I think. ABC didn't even give it a chance.

I second that. That is, if hasn't already been seconded. I'm far too lazy to continue to the bottom of the page.

Anyone else want to petition Fox for this on DVD? I love my late Sunday night repeats.

One of my favorites ever. I likes Brooklyn Bridge too. Very different types of shows, I know.

To the people wondering about Family Guy, I pulled this from http://www.thefamilyguy.com :

Family Guy WILL RETURN!!! 24.01.2001.

Many of you have been emailing us asking about the return of Family Guy...well here is the low down. Family Guy WILL return to the fox broadcasting line-up for it's 3rd season. It is expected to be airing sometime in Spring or Summer 2001. This summers ratings will most likely determine if the show will sign on for a new contract or not so be sure to watch every episode


Hell YEAH!

Sports Night
Action
Freaks and Geeks
Cupid...

...I know there's more but I can't think of them.

How do shows like these get cancelled, while derivative shows like Will and Grace get awards?

There's another one that I don't remember the name. With a guy named Scout, and the girl who dressed up like a boy so she could go to an all boy's school? It was only 6 episodes and hasn't been on since.

Profit ( this show was not given a chance at all , damn fine show )

MST3K ( Sci-fi didn't know what the hell to do with this show)

Sports Night ( At least can watch West Wing still )

Twin Peaks ( I wish they would at least do a reunion movie to clear up the cliffhanger )

Freaks And Geeks ( great show , I hope Apatow's college show that is going to be on Fox will get more of a chance )

Snoops ( I think Paula Marshall is cursed, any show she is on gets cancelled pretty damn quick )
