TV shows that should have never been cancelled

[CrazyClare]

Those TV shows that you loved so much, and they were torn mercilessly (dictionaries are for fags)from you. Also whenever I find someone who likes one of these shows i reward them with cool points.
The State (75 cool points/100)
Mystery Science Theatre (60 cool points/100)
Family guy (50 cool points/100)

<IMG SRC="http://www.osirusonline.com/crazyclare.gif">
either love me or leave me alone.

[Death Metal Moe]

I agree with all 3 of those shows. I have only to add the most important show:

THE KIDS IN THE HALL

and some others are:

Upright Citizens Brigade

TV Funhouse

The Tick (cartoon)

The Critic

[serVice]

Damn, i didn't think anyone else besides me and my brother were the only ones that remembered the State. The first season of that show was the fucking best (i'm gonna dip my balls in it!), but if you remember, the second season was all watered down and weren't all that great.

Your doubt, it fuels me. Your hate, it drives me. The challenge ignites me. You make me fight harder.

[CrazyClare]

so now I get 75 cool points and so do you. its really a beautiful system I have worked out. Barry and Levan awwwwwww yah

Double Trouble- sitcom about twins (got cancelled twice!) Sisters of actress Kathy Segal

It's your Move- sitcom with Jason Bateman but the girl who played his sister was hot.

Flash- based on the comic book, plus it had Amanda Pays

Rags to Riches- Wealthy tycoon learns the meaning of family and life by taking care of orphaned girls.

Boyz will be Boys- early Matthew Perry sitcom but the asian-type girl was hot

Just the Ten of Us- spinoff from Growing Pains. And those girls were hot.

Remington Steele- was supposed to comeback as 2-hr movie block but never did. Plus Laura Holt was good on the eyes. Mildred Kreebs (aka Everybody loves Raymond mother) came later on in the show.

Wiseguy- I liked it with Ken Wahl and was willing to give the second version w/ Steven Bauer? a shot. Plus Martika looked smoking in the series premiere. Never found out what happned to Vinnie Terranova cuz it got cancelled.

Ned and Stacey- Thomas Haden Church (dude that played Lowell from Wings) is just pure comedic gold.

Nasty Boys- Rogue cops, what more can you ask for.

When I was in Germany, there was a show called "Kasten Ihrer Mammas"!!!! It had to be one of the funniest sitcoms that I have ever seen. I wish they would bring it over here to the States...Had to be the best show I have ever seen!!!!

Mystery Science Theatre

I miss this show and it could easily come back. I remember reading on their web site a few years ago that the biggest problem they had was getting the rights to the movies they were ripping apart.

Actually, it was simply paying the rights on a regular basis. Their company, Best Brains, and the channel they were on (CC or Sci Fi) had to pay EACH TIME a movie was shown. That's why you saw the same shows over and over again when it would be repeated on CC. Certain movies would cost so much they just showed them once every few months.

MST3k. It was cancelled twice too. Comedy Central sucks and so does Sci Fi Channel.

Sienfeld wasn't cancelled, NBC would have paid for that show for another 10 years.

I love the State but hate all the shows the people from the State have done since then. What's up with that?

Forever Knight. It was a show in syndication in the 90s about a vampire cop who worked at night helping people to make up for sins he had committed over the years as a vampire. It had a dark edge to it and the series finale was just unbelievable. Campy, but I loved it.

NewsRadio
I knew this one was coming. The original episodes of Newsradio were the most consistently funny shows on TV at the time. However, after Phil Hartman died the show was Crap (emphasize the capital "C"). Therefore, it should have been cancelled.

However, after Phil Hartman died the show was Crap (emphasize the capital "C").

This is the worst lie in the history of TV. If there was ever an ensemble cast, this was it, and while Hartman's death was a huge blow, that show was still funnier than 99% of the other so-called "sitcoms" out there.

Yes, Newsradio was an incredible ensemble, but it was never the same after the loss of Phil Hartman. Saying AP Newsradio was better than most other sitcoms really doesn't say a lot.

i don't know why it completely slipped my mind, but one show that should never have gone away, still one of the greatest, Mr. Show with Bob and David.


ALF...not that it was great, but it ended with a To Be Continued...and to this day i'm curious how he got away

Actually back in 1996 they did a TV movie that cleared up all the loose ends that were left when that show ended, it was like 2 hours long. i have no idea what happened in it, i didn't watch it, i used to know someone that taped it, but i fell asleep when he tried to make me watch it. All i know is that it began with something like military people surrounding ALF and i think the family was there or something and maybe a spaceship. As i said i fell asleep. *EDIT* here's the ALF movie-
Project ALF (http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0117397/)

I was happy when the Cosby show was cancelled. It is one of those shows that lived off it's first 2 years. I hate to say it but the Simpson's is in the same cycle now. Just put it to sleep if you can't be funny anymore.
Here are some that shouldn't have been cancelled:
Firefly
John Doe
The Tick(live and cartoon)
Herman's Head.
Gary Shandling Show( the original one)
Family Guy( All of these are Fox shows. What a bunch of deeks)
MST3000
Cannonball Run( one of the best and most unheralded reality shows of all time)
Farscape( which has already been such a syndication bonanza that they are making a 4 more episodes)


I didn't see anything, I didn't hear anything, I wasn't there and if I was there I was asleep.
