If there was any TV show that was cancelled or cut short that you could see the planned continuation/ending of, which would you choose?

I always talk about this and also have the feeling no one knows about it. In any case I think I read somewhere that the idea was going to be along the lines of "right before you die you have a moment of clarity where you know everything, John had had a boating accident that led to that moment and he came back from the death". Honestly knowing what the future looked like sometimes I'm almost glad it got cancelled, because I think that would have been a bit of a boring explanation.
Yup, the creators talked about the planned premise
I kind of like it. Depending on how they reveal it and build up on it

For me it would have to be The Owl House
I haven't seen this one mentioned yet, Daybreak.
Teen drama series about teens trying to survive in a zomble apocaylse, it was well written but what really makes me want a season 2 is the cliffhanger that shifts the entire show on it's head.
Throughout the series, Josh (the main character) is trying to get a girl called Sam, in the finale Sam rejects her because she notices he wasn't really in love with her. Josh was just trying to play a hero getting a damsel in distress, it was a amazing breakdown of toxic masculinity that makes so much sense if you rewatch the series with the twist in mind. Sam then becomes the leader, the position that Josh has been working for the whole series and that's the cliffhanger. I remeber people getting mad because those were the exact types of people Josh was. A season 2 could have gone even deeper into the toxic masculinity angle and that would have been awesome.

Dark Matter (the 2015 one, not the new one which is totally different but also sci fi and has the same name for some reason)

Jericho... y'all young ones don't remember
I remember CBS receiving literal tons of peanuts on their doorstep from fans who wanted a second season... only for said season to only be about 5 episodes ;_;
The story continues as graphic novels, though.

I'm surprised no one mentioned My name is Earl, it's a tv show about a guy who wins the lottery and is immediately hit by a car, he then hears about Karma so he decides to turn his life around by making amends for all of the wrong things he did. It's a very fun comedy, and it was cancelled on a cliffhanger because the producers specifically asked if they were getting a next season and were told yes.
This one is the one that hurts me the most, because they knew how the ending was going to be, but didn't got thr chance to film it, and it would have been perfect. Essentially he would have gotten to an item on the list that he just couldn't do, whenever he tried something would prevent him from doing it, and it would seem that karma was against him. But then someone would come to him wanting to make amends for something they've done to him, and he would ask where the person got the idea, and it would be because someone made amends to him, and he would keep pulling at that thread until he found out that he inspired people around him to make their own lists, and those people inspired others, and so on and so forth so he would feel that he finally did more good than bad and would tear up the list and continue with his life. Oh, and the cliffhanger? It wouldn't matter, it was just going to be an excuse to bring some celebrity, they didn't even knew who the father was going to be.
PS: if you liked My name is Earl, and you weren't aware there's another TV show by the same people called Raising Hope which is the same style of comedy, with a bunch of the same actors, and they make constant references to MNiE.
I love MNIE and Raising Hope! Shame the ,ast season of MNIE wasn't good.

Game of thrones
I can't believe they cancelled it before the end. And there were no final seasons at all.

If HBO were smart, they'd just call Redo on the last one or two seasons with new, but seasoned writers. I rewatch genre shit like this all the time, but I can't be bothered with this one because the ending is so rushed. I constantly want to, but not once since the ending.
I'd sign a petition demanding it. D and D lost star wars but I wonder if any assisting writers, hbo managers etc got sacked for not stopping it.

The Patriot on prime is one of the greatest tv shows I've ever seen, worth watching even though it was cancelled after 2 seasons. Barely anyone has watched it but it doesn't have a bad episode

Season 4 was so good, then then they just left it there.

Wheel of Time
I'd like to see them make WoT. But like, from the beginning so we can forget about... whatever the fuck the writers for amazon were doing.
Let HBO take it.

A series that basically nobody knows: John Doe
A guy wakes up in the middle of nowhere, not knowing who he is. But knows literally everything else. Basically walking Wikipedia
First season ended on massive cliffhanger and was cancelled
wrote on last edited by [email protected]I think about that last shot, looking up at the bartender all the time. Weirdly the only other thing I can think about the main character being in is blade 3.
