Default Canceled Shows

I know im not alone in this but I hate it when they cancel shows that we have invested time in watching and sometimes its just a sudden axe so it ends on a cliffhanger. I would like to know what shows you watched that got the sudden chop. Just a few off the top of my head are

BLADE THE SERIES
V
HEROES
TERMINATOR - SARAH CONNER CHRONICLES

Star Trek - Enterprise. Just as the show was getting good. Same with the new V.

Not so much a sudden chop (although the last couple of episodes felt very rushed), but: Arrested Development!

I've just bought the Sarah Connor chronicles and having watched series 1 and the first 3 episodes of series 2 i cant see why they cancelled this.

Firefly is another good one which should have lasted longer

The ultimate sin for me is BBCs The Tripods from the 80's which having invested in 13 episodes each for series one and series 2 they just dropped the show on a massive cliffhanger and never bothered with series 3

They cancelled The Sarah Connor Chronicles and kept Dollhouse, even though TSSC had higher ratings.....only to cancel Dollhouse a year later. Fecking US television!!

God yeah. The prime example of such a thing. Such a shame about the rushed ending, but bring on the new character-centric episodes and the movie!

Twin Peaks
On a Lynch note, I've watched about half of Muholland Dr., which originated as a tv pilot, and I would have watched that show.

I'm glad Twin Peaks ended when it did. (a) they were already running out of ideas in season two, and (b) the ending is incredible.

Outcasts (a BBC sci-fi show) was just starting to get going when it was cancelled
