Your honerable mention is Arrested Development????

This thread is a fricking failure!!!!

Only the vest show ever to be cancelled prematurely. No matter the network.

IMO, this show deserves better than an Honorable Mention, but to each his own.

While Arrested Development may have been a great show, FOX gave it plenty of time to succeed and develop. It was puled after it had chances to succeed and failed to. So it was not prematurely pulled and doesn't belong on this list.

I'm still pissed about Sarah Connor Chronicles.

I miss Summer Glau and Lena Headey

I'd agree with Sarah Conner Chronicles and Futurama. Futarama was canned to make room for American Dad. They try to recreate lightning in a bottle like Family Guy, and it isn't even close to as good as Futurama.

Family Guy is probably the winner here. It was canned after only 2 1/2 seasons I think and was brought back years later after DVD sales went through the roof and syndication was off the charts.

I really didn't know. I caught a couple of shows.

I really don't thik that people here understand the meaning of premature especially when it comes to Arrestes Development. Like I said earlier, it was given plenty of opportunity.

I would say they did the same for SC. It did get a second season and the ratings got progressively worse.
