re: Canceled Show that Deserved More ...

I am one of the few who liked how Deadwood ended. There was no other option given that we know the actual history of Hearst. Along with the history of the other people involved. Sure it wasn't a 100% historically correct show but they couldn't just kill main characters who survived in real life.
Having said that I wouldn't have minded more Deadwood. Certainly would have been better than the John in Cincinnati abomination.
Rome is a good choice but even if they fleshed out the condensed season 2 into 2 & 3 I am not sure it would have mattered much. Season 1 was a lot of fun. Season 2 was a complete downer for Vorenus & Pullo. Not sure 2 seasons of watching their suffering would have been fun.
I didn't like Enterprise but once they got away from the temporal time war, the show was just starting to get good when it was cancelled.

We do this every so often, and Firefly is always at the top of the list.

Bloodlines "forced" ending was bad. That show could have ended better if given more time
Most love Season 1 but I also liked season 2. Season 3 was obviously rushed and had its moments but could have certainly been better

This show was so awesome before it got woke cancelled. The funny thing is they didn't go back and cancel Sanford and Son, Good Times, What's Happening, or The Jeffersons. I would love to do a rewatch.

The big ones have all been said already but these 2 are never mentioned in any of these threads:
Kings - Modern day retelling of Saul and David starring Ian McShane as the "Saul" character. I may be the only person on earth who loved this show though.
Last Man on Earth - It got 4 seasons and never really caught on with the public but the season 4 cliffhanger ending needs to be resolved.

I text searched through every page before I posted this. I'm surprised it wasn't mentioned until this late.
I wanted to see more of Will Forte doing crazy stuff like driving a stealth down a main street and less social drama bs.

Southland. Great cop show when it went to TNT.

If Apple made that show instead of Max, we would be much closer to finding out why that android’s snake baby ate the woman that turned into a tree.

I didn’t catch the show until it was already canceled, but holy shite what could have been. Terrific writing and very fun show.
