    1 season or less would be Freaks and Geeks.

    But three seasons of Arrested Development were not nearly enough.

    You are not your job.
    You are not how much money you have in the bank.
    You are not the car you drive.
    You are not the contents of your wallet.
    You are not your fucking khakis.

    That show was on for like 4 or 5 seasons... :confused:

    No Love for "Greg the Bunny"? ;)


    I was bothered when "Push, Nevada" (anyone else watch that?) was canned halfway through its mystery unravelling. The final episode they gave you all the remaining clues and it was a scramble to solve the riddle to win the $1,045,000 and I did get it figured out in less than 2 minutes, but by then somebody else already had it.

    This was a great show! I'm still waiting for the dvd release...

    I know!! Couldn't believe it when I read it got cancelled, although it did explain why there were no 'cliffhangers' at the end of the series.

    There was a cartoon show called "undergrads" that only lasted 1 season on MTV.

    I didn't discover the show until it was aired on Comedy Central where i thought it was a new CC cartoon series until I realized it was just another MTV reject.

    Think one of the brothers in that show is in a new show now. The one with the preggo lady. He's great in it but the show kind of sucks.

    That fucking show went on for 7 seasons!! Most of which I had to endure with my gf! Are you serious, or are you referring to the Rob Schneider version?

    My So Called Life

    I'm assuming MSCL got low ratings, yet everyone I knew watched it. I never understood why they were so quick to pass it over.

    The George Carlin Show. Sure it was shitty, but anytime you can get Carlin's ideas on network television it always makes for a good mix.

    I love Freaks and Geeks.

    I recently got Undeclared from Netflix thinking it would be great as well. Good lord that was awful.
