Thought this was an interesting question and I’m sure there’s lots of suggestions out there.

1899
I’m still heartbroken Netflix cancelled it because it had the unfortunate timing of airing at the same time as Wednesday. The directors’ previous series, “Dark”, was a proper mindfuck.
Dark was amazing. I didn’t bother with 1899 after I heard that it was cancelled.
I think I’m developing a fear of commitment with shows these days, with so many cancelations
Firefly
At least we got serenity to kinda tie up lose ends
Hi Randall Munroe!
Pushing Daisies
Altered Carbon! season 2 was left open ended because it was supposed to get a 3rd season.
Better off Ted
I need more Veridian Dynamics.
Also, casting Linda as Ted Lasso’s wife and having her say “Ted” was one of the most jarring experiences I’ve had watching TV. All suspension of reality was completely broken.
I noticed that too!
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.
The OA. Fuck Netflix for canceling it.
Also 1899.
I probably shouldn’t be surprised, but I can’t freaking believe that someone has the same two answers as me. We’ll get through this, friend.
i can think at least three reasons:
- great minds think alike
- those are great shows
- netflix sucks
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.
Dead Like Me
Dirk Gently, the BBC America/Netflix one.
First season, phenomenal! Second season was pretty good, not as good as the first but still good. It set up a lot of things that were then not continued and I just want to know what they had planned.
Also Snowpiercer: You’ve filmed it, you’ve edited it, just let us see it!
(Edit: posted this as a reply to someone else. My bad!)
Expanse, of course
firelfy
People have already beaten me to Firefly over and over again so I’ll add one likely to have been forgotten:
Carnivale.
Ended on an unbelievable cliffhanger, left SO MUCH unanswered, could’ve run for another decade. I’m re-mad that this show got canceled now.
Game of thrones, but it’s the new series 7 and it rewrites original 7 and 8 and they don’t exist anymore.
