If you don’t live under a rock, you’ve likely enjoyed a TV show at least once in your life. Captivating stories and interesting characters – what’s not to enjoy, right?
Well, sometimes no matter how many viewers enjoy a certain TV show, it still gets canceled. This happens so often that plenty of people have at least one show that got away. And so when someone asked folks online what they are, many didn’t hold back. That’s how we ended up with this list. So, let’s dive in, shall we?

I quite liked ‘Forever’ with Ioan Gruffudd portraing an inmortal man. It came out in 2015 and was cancelled after 1 season.
#8
Carnivale. An incredibly original show that was canceled after only 2 seasons.

This is going to probably be a bit obscure for some, but Terra Nova.
I loved the plot, the cast seemed strong, and I’m a sucker for dinosaur related sci-fi shows.
From my understanding it had decent ratings following the finale, but didn’t fit into Fox’s schedule lineup the next season, so it was shelved and eventually cancelled. Big cliff hanger…ugh, just wanted more!

Better Off Ted was a good show, and it could have been more than two seasons.
#14
Travelers
It stil has so much potential. As it is now the whole show is basically one time loop.

*Star Trek: Enterprise*. I wanted to see the actual founding of the Federation after the lead-up, but then we got “Terra Prime”, the last episode, and it was over.

Tell me what those forest dog things are that re-alive the kid, dammit.

Our Flag Means Death was given a non-cliffhanger ending but the writer did say he had three seasons planned and I am incredibly sad not to see the rest of the story.

Pushing Daisies, Wonderfalls, and Dead Like Me. I’ll never get over the heartbreak of PD ending the way it did.
