Dramas


Comedies


Sci-Fi


And shows on the air now that are in trouble


Jeez, I must be some kind of jinx. I watched probably 80% of those shows and was pissed when they were cancelled.

The brilliant club should be somewhat more exclusive. Is there any cancelled show they didn't like?

I hear ya, but remember this is going all the way back to the early 90s. Tons of shows have come and gone since then. This is a pretty decent sized group I think.

Sure brilliant might be overstating it, but most of those shows were at least very solid.

I can't open those links at work, but I would assume Arrested Development is on the list.

Yeah AD is on there. Like the other poster said there are a lot of shows listed. Some that may not be considered great, so AD, Freaks and Geeks, all the classics like that are listed.

Undeclared was phenomenal. Sports Night is definitely in that phenomal category too. Damn the man.

Yeah, Pushing Daisies, Freaks and Geeks, Arrested, and Undeclared are probably my most bitter cancellations.

You know the worse case?

I had been watching NBC's "Chopping Block" where they had couples compete to open their own restaurant. Two weeks ago NBC cancelled the show HALFWAY through, not even showing who won. They claimed due to poor ratings but I don't think so.
The last show on had 5 couples left and one couple was black. The black team was on the loosing team and they were on the chopping block. Realizing this the woman pulls the race card on national TV. She said - and I quote - "it seemed racial to me". Then she and her husband got the ax.
Next day the show was axed.

Early Edition was a favorite of mine the short time it was on TV. Seemed like a fresh idea at the time, only recently found the DVD set for it.

I can't believe they didn't include The Critic

I doubt it, but it probably didn't help its cause either.

wiki article

you can still watch the episodes on wed night on nbc.com apparently. And it says it always had low ratings, beginning with the premiere.

ETA: fixed link
