Firefly
Yeah, this. It was such an interesting premise, an engaging cast, and really seemed to be going someplace interesting. Would've loved to see it get enough time to find its voice. Even their bottle episode was great fun.
I wish the answer here was "Westworld".
That first season was perfect television. And that season finale? My god. I was so excited to watch season 2 and it... just fell short on all fronts. It has its moments, but ultimately failed to measure up to that first season.
Which would have been okay, but then season 3 and 4 happened, and diluted the overall quality of the show to a point where I stopped recommending the show to anyone and just tell them to stick to S1.
I want to live in a timeline where we left off on that S1 ending wondering what could have been.
The Expanse
Expanse ended on a good point. We would probably need at least 2 seasons to finish up the final trilogy. If one extra season would be all we got, I'd not want it tbh.
firelfy
Firefly. There is no other answer for me.
Came here to say this. The movie helped but not as much as another season.
Pushing Daisies
The Expanse. The show had a satisfying ending but the books went a bit further into the future and I'd like to see more in the shows.
Deadwood. The movie was too little way too late.
As a HUGE deadwood fan, i agree. Its probably my overall #1 favorite show of all time. I felt like the movie was Milch calling in before his disease took him completely.
Reboot, a Canadian CGI kids show about happenings inside a computer, the guardians, the viruses, the web, I used to love that show.
It ended in an intense cliffhanger 😔
So, um, kind of a monkey paw situation here...It did get an, ahem, "reboot"...Which was a hybrid live action/CGI show. It's not another season, and that's honestly probably the most disheartening part of it. Like you pulled enough together to do something more Reboot-related and that's where you went with it?
It's just...There. It's not very good, and it's not even so bad it's good either. It's more like a live action Code Lyoko than Reboot tbh, and it can't even get that right.
Live action Cowboy Bebop. Loved that show, idc what people said.
Pushing Daisies never got the ending it deserved. Everything had to be hastily wrapped up in one entire episode, third season setups were just left as loose ends, and it really didn't do such a great show justice
Mindhunter, without a doubt.
I'm still sad when I think of what could've been
Sense8 for sure, that show was awesome but Netflix pulled the plug because apparently it was way too expensive to film.
Seven seasons and a movie!
Eh...the last season was really weak IMO. The wheels fell off once Troy left and I think the meme of "six seasons and a movie" willed that final season into existence.
Farther Ted
Raised by wolves: season 2 cliffhanger is not funny at all
Chuck because I want to see that happy ending and Eureka because I miss the weird combo of sci-fi, comedy and drama
Haven't seen anyone mention The OA yet.
That series needs to be finished!
Altered Carbon! season 2 was left open ended because it was supposed to get a 3rd season.
I adored season 1, couldn't get into season 2, no matter how hard I tried.
More of the cyberpunk cities would have been right up my alley.
Sense8. There's nothing else quite like it. I really wanted to see more of that story, I'll never forgive Netflix for cancelling it.
Santa Clarita Diet
Raised By Wolves
Gravity Falls.
There are not many shows that I enjoy and my kids enjoy as well. It was such a cute heartful show. One more season would have been nice.
Better off Ted
Pushing Daisies
ETA: I should've finished reading this thread. Of course these two would be mentioned!
I was gonna say Raised by wolves and Adventure Time, but I see those have gotten the deserved attention so I'm gonna add Kidding. Not because it was left in a bad way, but it was just an amazing show.
...but I mean Raised by wolves just hurts, it was just peaking goddamnit!
Dead Like Me
Star Trek Enterprise season 5. That show was just starting to get really good.
Would love to have seen the Romulan wars.
I would love another season of scrubs!
I know the last season (med school) was wildly unpopular, but i actually started warming up to it near the end. I feel like another season would have actually been pretty good
Infinity train
Unironically Mindhunter. I'm so mad it's been canceled. Such a great show.
