    Carnivale... it did go two seasons, but that was not enough!

    Wolf Lake was pretty cool.

    I loved Carnivale!
    I think it ended b/c they finished the story. It all came to a head. I guess you could always have a cliff hanger but I don't think it ended b/c it was a bad show.

    Ditto. Exactly the same.

    and to quote Helen... ahhhh Jordan.
  • 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:

    My vote goes to Freaks & Geeks.

    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.
