Disclaimer - next week's column is about FOX's odd habit of mistreating and finally canceling shows that deserved better. The fact that this column will come out a day after "Wonderfalls" is released on DVD is just an astounding coincidence.
I plan to mention other great FOX decisions such as: Fututama - shuffled around, pre-empted by every sports event imaginable, finally canceled. It then went on to win a couple Emmys, reruns get heavy play on Cartoon Network. The Family Guy - shuffled around, pre-empted, dumped. Brought back. Dumped. Brought back, sort of. Dumped. DVD sales go through the roof. Coming back again. Firefly - shuffled around until the plotlines made no sense, pre-empted, canceled (and then the first episode was broadcast). Sold incredibly well in DVD form, now a major motion picture. The Ben Stiller Show - Canceled. Won an Emmy.
Networks (or at least FOX) no longer seem to have any interest in a show that doesn't perform fantasically well right out of the gate. Which shows did you love that were canceled before their time?
Posted by Dagonee (Member # 5818) on :
Brisco County, Junior - canceled abruptly before the show could regain its bearings after the Bly storyline.
Posted by PSI Teleport (Member # 5545) on :
One show I loved wasn't cancelled, but it was abandoned and left to die a slow, terrible death, and that was SeaQuest. The first season was extremely entertaining, but they lost nearly every key person in the production of that show, including half the cast, and it became just about the worst show in history. I have never figured out what went wrong.

What was that show that had John Goodman in the first five minutes of the pilot, and then just as the internal voice of this guy that the government had given an enhanced new body to? Once and Again? Now and Again? There were two shows with similar names at the same time, and I could never keep them straight even back then.
But I really liked that show.
There was also a show about a multi-generational shrimping family living in South Carolina that I really liked, even though their pilot mixed up Hurricanes Andrew and Hugo. Posted by Zalmoxis (Member # 2327) on :

The Simpsons is another example of a fantastic show that has been permitted to sully a fine body of work by not being ended when its time came. It should have been ended at least a couple of years ago.
Drew Carrey is another example.
Happy Days.
Three's Company--okay, now none of these shows was as good as The Simpsons, but each still shows that there is a right time to pull a show, and you hurt its memory by letting it limp along for too long.

Sifl & Olly Show. MTV.
Horrid time-slot (12:30AM) and initially cut up with music videos. Got some good buzz, and they reconstituted the episodes, no videos, still 12:30AM. More buzz, and they move it to 7:30, but no advertizing of it. First season ends, no talk of a second. Finally, they get the go ahead, season to starts at 7:30PM, but with Music Videos again! Eventually they are cut out again, and the show is moved to 12:30AM again. Second season ends.
Third season was going to be internet-only (this was 1999, after all). Bubble bursts, no season 3... Until the show creators get MTV permission to put the 3rd season (not seasons 1 or 2) on DVD and sell it over the internet.
We're still waiting for MTV to let the creators put the first two seasons out.
Never heard of the show? If you've heard the "This is my United States of Whatever" song (Tony Hawk, a few parodies on local rock stations, top 10 English Single a couple years back), then you heard a song first aired on the Sifl & Olly Show about 4 years before it got re-released

Boomtown. Could have been way cooler than CSI. If anyone had every watched it. But not only did they cancel it, they ripped it to sheds before they did so.
Lone Gunmen. I never saw their spin-off, but I got mighty peeved when they killed them off in the last series of X-files. They were always my favourite characters. Guess there's no chance of a movie now.
Posted by Synesthesia (Member # 4774) on :
Tarzan was a good show, but they took that off. Bernie Mac is my favourite show, but, they shuffle that around so much. This time they had a good reason. Bernie Mac has been sick from working on 3 movies and his show at the same time. Wanda at large was another show I liked and they took that one off. But, they also took off some of these dumb reality shows so that is good.

There was a show that I loved about these kids who get caught in another, sort of Medievel world. Then, the people of the other world leak into theirs. Argh. It was on one of the kids' channels, I think. It must have been from Australia, as the accents were Australian.
Posted by Eaquae Legit (Member # 3063) on :
Elizabeth, it was called Spellbinder.
At least, I know of one that started in Australia, then this kid gets sent to another parallel dimension where they all have Polish accents. Then they go back and forth a few times, then the show ends.
It ended because they story was over. More like the lonest mini-series than an actual show. Family Channel played it, as I recall.

Freaks and Geeks. Excellent show. It had characters you could really care about. It was the most realistic depiction of high school life in television history. And it had the best soundtrack of any show in television history.
Got completely sodomized against its will by NBC. Moved into a horrendous time slot and then cancelled after only one season. The creators, having heard the network's decision to cancel the show, actually ended it. The last episode actually concluded in such a way that it wrapped up the series.
Of course, it also left it open enough that it could be picked up again if the network changed its mind. That didn't happen, but, disappointed as I was by the brevity of the series, at least I never felt like it was left hanging. That alone shows you how good the show's creators are.
