Okay, the one I miss the most....my all time favorite:

Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman

I loved loved LOOOOVED that show. Watched it from day one until the last episode. The thing that sucked was that they didn't know it was getting cancelled, and the last season ended with cliffhangers. :mad: But seriously, I think it was the best show ever. Whenever I can find it in reruns I watch it. ANYONE else on here but me miss it? :(

Others:

CARTOONS:
--Cartoon Planet (gotta love Brak!)
--Rainbow Brite

ACTUAL SHOWS
--Touched by an Angel (don't laugh...the last 2 seasons were horrible, but all the ones before were so touching and awesome.)

--Byrds of Paradise

--Hey Dude (watched it ALL THE TIME as a kid) and all the other old school Nickelodeon shows

--Phenom

--Due South

--Parker Lewis Can't Lose

One more recent one:

X-Men: Evolution

One of your more intelligent, yet OK for kids animated series in recent years.

I loved Nickelodeon shows too! Salute Your Shorts was great! I used to get in trouble for watching it...

I also Loved the show Pacific Blue... Mario Lopez is SO hot! I never got into watching Angel, although David Boreanaz is VERY nice to look at!

Whose Line is awesome too. I just about die laughing. Even though I've seen most episodes 50 million times :-) The one with Richard Simmons was creepy!

Bumping for GCB.

This thread is full of LOLz. A bunch of shows I haven't heard of...makes you realize how temporary TV programming is today. As for shows I watched faithfully and remember being upset when they were cancelled:

- My So Called Life - only failed because the network put it in the same time slot as Friends!
- Growing Pains
- Dallas
- Cosby Show
- Arsenio Hall
- Double Dare - oh how I wanted to be on that show!
- Felicity - along with MSCL the only series I own on DVD
- Jericho (might be getting a second life as an original series on Netflix!)
- Law & Order

Wait, L&O is cancelled? The original or all incarnations?

I'll second that.

I'll miss Pan Am, too.
Oh, and Brothers & Sisters.
And Harry's Law.

I remember being bummed that both Surface and Invasion were cancelled. They were each on for only one season, so it's hard to call either of them 'favorite' shows, but still...

The original/flagship. :( That is why I watch the marathons almost everyday. I blame Anthony Anderson for its downfall. LOL.

Here's the deal, the Cancellation Gods could've had L&O Criminal Intent and let us keep L&O. The only good ones are L&O and L&O SVU.

I wanted to be on Double Dare sooooo badly!!!

I still miss Northern Exposure. I liked Men in Trees because it was sort of like Northern Exposure, but not as good. I was mad when ABC cancelled that 2-3 years ago.

This is why I like HBO. You know they're going to finish each season, and generally, they stick with a show once they've decided to air it.

I am happy that Grimm and Castle were renewed. GCB is the only disappointment so far this season for me.

I'm bummed that CW cancelled Ringer and that Fox cancelled Alcatraz. But I'm so getting used to shows that I enjoy getting canned for other crap (i.e. reality tv) to stay on.

For me, it was almost always comedies that went off the air too soon.

Freaks and Geeks- not necessarily a comedy, but come on.... James Franco and D&D? Hilarious.

Clone High- I still rewatch the only season over and over.

Dilbert- My boyfriend and I just watched both seasons on Netflix and he really liked it.

Can't believe no one has mentioned The Critic. That show had so much going for it.

3rd Rock from the Sun. Of course, Joseph Gordon-Levitt is like a mega-star now, but that show had such clever writing.

Duckman. Completely crass. I felt like a spy watching this show because I didn't want my parents to find out I was watching it.

Pete and Pete. That was my childhood right there. I just loved the names of the evil kids in that show. Openface, Pit Stain, etc.

Bored to Death. I have had a huge crush on Jason Schwartzman ever since Rushmore.

Salute Your Shorts!!!! Made me want to be a counselor at a summer camp.

For dramas, I hated the way Angel ended. Actually, I hated how Joss treated Cordelia's character. SMH.

Firefly, even though there was Serenity.

Hung.

ROME! OMG THIS SHOW. So freaking amazing.

I still miss Big Love even though it wasn't cancelled. I need mah polygamy storehs!
