Favorite Shows That Were Never Given A Chance

I know there's a thread about cancelled shows, but many listed actually ran for a while before cancellation.

So, in the thread, we discuss shows that lasted no more than 3 seasons before stupid rich white men decided the show wasn't profitable.

By the way, if the execs now were execs back in the early 80s, we wouldn't have Cheers.

1) Undeclared
2) Freaks and Geeks
3) Keen Eddie

Firefly - of course! I love the way they screwed with the order of the episodes and wound up airing the pilot last.

I could go on and on (I'll try not too)

Firefly (Joss Whedon is a personal g-d of mine and I cant wait for the movie)
Cupid (I love Jeremy Piven)
Wonderfalls
Kindred: The Embraced (I guess because Mark Frankel got killed)
Profit (Adrian Pasdar was great in this show)
My So Called LIfe (but I have the DVD, so I can dream)

I think I will stop now

When they cancelled My So-Called Life, it was a tragedy of my adolescence

There's was also a cute Romeo-and-Juliet-esque show that ran on ABC for a while that was about a couple who eventually got together and it was all about their relationship and how they liked each other, but didn't want to say, etc....i totally can't remember the name....dammit
