I don’t think The Expanse was really cancelled rather than it was ended at a story point that makes sense to continue from sometime in the future. There’s something like a decade long time skip and a huge thematic shift between books 6 and 7.

I’d you love firefly check it dark matter. It unfortunately faced the same fate though.
easily3667@lemmus.org 2 months ago
Yep, same characters too except they made the kaylee character into an adult pretending to be a child which was weird.

I cancelled Netflix because they cancelled Sense8 and The OA.

Sense8 being cancelled was a crime

Firefly and Pushing Daisies are staples in these conversations, so I’ll throw in a less common one: NCIS LA.
I watched that show for over a decade. It was something predictable and comfortable. The show ending was like losing my favourite hoodie I’ve had for 14 years. Does it really impact my life? No. Do I miss it nonetheless? Yes.
randomuser38529@lemmy.world 2 months ago
I stopped sometime during season 3 or 4, can’t remember. Without spoiling anything if I decide to pick it up again: do we know what G stands for? Don’t tell me, just nod or something.
Akuchimoya@startrek.website 2 months ago
Yes, we do eventually find out what G stands for.

All time? Freaks and geeks. Was becoming the quintessential coming of age show, had hard lessons that were from the point of real kids growing up. Each character was relatable in their own way, and should have gone on for years.
Second to that is Arrested Development. And yeah it was rebooted but the cast had moved on. The show was on a great role and was just ahead of its time. The episodic nature of it just wasn’t popular then.

The Orville hasn’t been canceled, yet. S04 will enter production this year.
DarrinBrunner@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Thank you. It’s been sitting lonely in my Jellyfin for a long time waiting to hear this.

Santa Clarita Diet and Carnivale. HBO axed Carnivale, Deadwood and Rome back to back, and I still hold a grudge.
barneypiccolo@lemm.ee 2 months ago
I LOVED Lower Decks. Enterprise was probably the weakest of the ST series.
Stepskippin@lemmy.world 2 months ago
My love for T’pol politely disagrees.
Ledericas@lemm.ee 2 months ago
Enterprise was ruined by lee moonves. It’s still far better than the 3 nutrek series( I called them post jj Abrams.

MirthfulAlembic@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Especially since it wasn’t a real cancellation, just “on indefinite hiatus” followed by “never coming back” almost five years later. The second season ending very much set up at least another season.
RowRowRowYourBot@sh.itjust.works 2 months ago
It was formally cancelled last year.
blarth@thelemmy.club 2 months ago
Yeah, so good! This was Netflix’s True Detective and they just…dropped it?

Raised by wolves. Atheism vs Religion into the stars. It was so good and so much of the buildup was about to come to fruition. GAH!

I’ll never forgive Amazon for cancelling The Tick.

ReBoot. One of the most incredible, ground-breaking shows of its time, but it ends on a cliffhanger. I’m still holding out hope that we’ll get a movie to tie up the loose ends someday.

Oh, I’d also like to add any projects with Neil Gaiman getting canceled, too. Good Omens, Sandman, and Deadboy Detectives.

InvertedParallax@lemm.ee 2 months ago
Meh, the first season was horrible, Interstellar Gossip Girl. The second season was an infinite improvement, but it still felt like they didn’t really have any kind of plan, just keep the plot moving along while abuse Battlestar Galactica camera work to ratchet up the tension.
I get bleak, but this was bleak with no point, which is just sadness.
Hugin@lemmy.world 2 months ago
I enjoyed the space adventure parts but every time they broke out the stones I lost interest.

Season 3 was going to rectify the lack of alien arcs. It got cancelled before that. And MGM had money problems too

Stargate Atlantis was cancelled, but at least they made it home. Those Stargate Universe people are in for a lifetime of torture.

SGA was getting fucked by all the sg:1 writers that moved across and just kept writing sg1 with new names, it was a bit of a mercy kill
Ledericas@lemm.ee 2 months ago
Sga was cancelled for sgu unfortunately because MGM was losing slot of money, they needed a cheaper show

I’d watch a spinoff of just those two scientists. They had such good chemistry together.
GingerGoodness@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Teen Titans ended with a cliffhanger and then Cartoon Network put out Teen Titans Go! just to add insult to injury. Certainly the pettiest thing I’ve been angry about for nearly 20 years.
Zozano@aussie.zone 2 months ago
I thought the show ended with the movie and it wrapped things up?
GingerGoodness@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Trouble in Tokyo? I guess it wrapped things up in the sense of it finished its own story, but didn’t really resolve or conclude anything that was left hanging in the show.
To be fair to the creators, the comic version of TTG does fill in some blanks about Terra’s cliffhanger in issue #51, which is basically super condensed version of what I would have expected to be included in the season that got pitched and turned down.

Im still debating on spending the $125 to get the book that finishes it.
grehund@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Recently? The Peripheral, and Kaos.
InvertedParallax@lemm.ee 2 months ago
Kaos was so much fun, needed another 3-4 seasons.
d00phy@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Lots of really good ones here. I’ll add Flashforward.
InvertedParallax@lemm.ee 2 months ago
Oh god, this one should win.
It actually felt like there was a point to all the story threads, like they were trying to pull a Lost but actually had a plan in the beginning.
d00phy@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Right!? There was some weird stuff going on, and the way the show started was pretty solid. Did they even finish the first season?

timbuck2themoon@sh.itjust.works 2 months ago
I think we gave up somewhere in season 3. No idea which season was the last. First season was awesome and by the third I had no idea where they were going with it. No desire to know at that point either.

AtHeartEngineer@lemmy.world 2 months ago
I wonder how the person who’s decision it was to cancel firefly feels about this now. Do you think they were under a lot of pressures because of funding, or they just weren’t that into the show, or was there a new show they wanted to divert funding to. Wonder what the story was there.
