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?

No, I don't think that's right... It was like Inflamedinsects or something similar... It was super low-key, not a lot of people have heard about it, zero chance someone on Lemmy would post it.
Fox did the same thing with Firefly. Showed the episodes out of order and cancelled after one season. It also got a movie years later.

Outer Range for a newer cancellation, Dark Matter and Kings still sting.
-
Firefly
Stargate Atlantis
Stargate Universe (yes, almost all the characters was unlikeable, but I’d still have liked a resolution)
Star Trek Prodigy
Star Trek Lower Decks
The Lazarus Project
The Lazarus project, can second that..

Firefly
The 4400
Top Gear (the UK version)
Edit: As a side note, I would love to see a Eureka reboot
The 4400: original or reboot?

The trifecta of 2005 TV shows:
- Threshold
- Surface
- Invasion
The 2005-2006 season was an absolute disaster for new, promising sci-fi shows.

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
That sounds like a cool premise!

Firefly. Specifically, Shepherd Book's backstory.

Niche show, but Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency. Holy shit that was a great show and SO well written, but I can see why it wasn't well received on a traditional TV format - if you didn't watch from the beginning and keep watching to the end it wouldn't make a lick of sense. Definitely meant to be enjoyed with a serious watch of an entire series and not episodically.
I would give my left foot for a Season 3.
I just wanted to post this! It felt like they were setting up a really interesting overarching plot with the "backstage of reality", I wish they told us what their plans for that were.

I worry it would have fallen off. Now we can always dream of what could have been.

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.

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.

Also apparently Joss Whedon is a cunt
Rewatching old shows is painful. So much homophobia and sexism and racism was played for laughs
And that’s just Xander.

GLOW!
Covid really put the smackdown on that one -

Raised by wolves. Like, more than anything. I want to know what happens so badly.
It was such a unique, utterly batshit crazy show that just really started going off the rails in the best possible way at the end of season 2. There was something so hauntingly bleak about it all that I fell head over heels in love with and its cancellation hurts to this day.

I desperately want it back.
