Dammit. One day I want to be the first person to mention Freaks and Geeks in one of these threads. That is my number one. I actually dont care for shows having a ton of seasons. Arrested Development went about as long as it should have, even though at the time of it's cancellation, it was my favorite show and I was pretty pissed off.

I think it was given a chance, 3 seasons is long enough to build a base. For whatever reason though it just didn't get a good enough following. If there is a silver lining to it getting the axe though, it's that it never got a chance to crap out and bomb its reputation away like the office has/is doing.


Yea, AD was given a chance but Fox constantly changed its time slot and there is no way it could develop a consistent audience with all of the moves it made.

1)Kings - absolutely loved this show and think it would've been a great premium cable show.
2)Firefly
3)Arrested Development.

This is my pick as well. I think they could have made another season or two without the show becoming stale.

Also Lizzy Caplan is very hot on the show.
