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

Firefly
At least we got serenity to kinda tie up lose ends
Hi Randall Munroe!
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

Pushing Daisies
Adventure Time. It really needed one more season to fully flesh out the storylines they set up. Cartoon Network really screwed them (and other shows like SU) over
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!
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

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
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.
Expanse, of course
Better off Ted
Pushing Daisies
ETA: I should’ve finished reading this thread. Of course these two would be mentioned!
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!
