Freaks and Geeks went away too soon, as did My So Called Life |

EZ Streets (1996) CBS pulled the rug out from under this great show with the amazing Celtic soundtrack after a mere 8 episodes. Danny in Yorktown, VA. For me: Off Centre Undeclared Saved By the Bell: The College Years Vanished (I really liked the conspiracy/secret artifact angle it wanted to take but sucked at since it's ratings were so bad and only "finished" it online) |

I think I'm the only person on earth who watched Kidnapped. It was a really good show.
|
Arrested Development When Fox cancelled it I was CRUSHED!

Is this a DVD Talk record for oldest thread to be resurrected?????
BTW, I'm not going back through all the 2001 posts to see if I posted back then, so I'll throw in a few of our favorites that died untimely deaths: FRANK'S PLACE THE DAYS & NIGHTS OF MOLLY DODD CARNIVALE ????(can't remember the name of Julia Dreyfuss's show before "Old Christine") JERICHO (1960's, not the new one) GROSS POINTE (or GROSSE POINT...never sure about the spelling) THEN CAME BRONSON THE INVADERS THE DAKOTAS EERIE, INDIANA ADVENTURES OF BRISCO COUNTY, JR YOUNG INDIANA JONES CHRONICLES JUDD FOR THE DEFENSE NIGHT GALLERY AMAZING STORIES CIMMARON STRIP THE TICK THE FLASH GUNSMOKE (just kidding...I think 20 years was enough) I'm sure there are many others (for instance, there was an interesting old western...called The Outcasts, I think...that featured Don Murray as a former Confederate who was somewhat of a racist who became bounty-hunting partners with an ex-slave). It was somewhat gimmicky (kind of a cheap western knockoff of The Defiant Ones) but had that quirky appeal. Similarly,there are lots of shows we remember fondly that may not have been classic television but still appealed to us on some personal level. |
