Thought this was an interesting question and I’m sure there’s lots of suggestions out there.

Firefly
At least we got serenity to kinda tie up lose ends
Hi Randall Munroe!
1899
I’m still heartbroken Netflix cancelled it because it had the unfortunate timing of airing at the same time as Wednesday. The directors’ previous series, “Dark”, was a proper mindfuck.
Dark was amazing. I didn’t bother with 1899 after I heard that it was cancelled.
I think I’m developing a fear of commitment with shows these days, with so many cancelations
Pushing Daisies
Prodigy (Star Trek) just got canceled, that’s on my mind right now. They had a lot of story left to tell.
Better off Ted
I need more Veridian Dynamics.
Also, casting Linda as Ted Lasso’s wife and having her say “Ted” was one of the most jarring experiences I’ve had watching TV. All suspension of reality was completely broken.
I noticed that too!
Deadwood. The movie was too little way too late.
As a HUGE deadwood fan, i agree. Its probably my overall #1 favorite show of all time. I felt like the movie was Milch calling in before his disease took him completely.
Final Space.
Olan had one season left before the company buried the show as a tax write off
Reading this made me look it up. Final Space was more than a one season show?? Guess I have some catching up to do.
If you missed it, Olan got a deal to put out a hardback graphic novel tying up the show, called Final Space Ends. Upside: a real ending. Downside: not a show, not available digitally(one of Warner’s conditions), and it’s $125. Tentatively scheduled to ship late next year.
So realistically it doesn’t have an ending, because there is a zero percent chance I will ever pay $125 for it…
The OA. Fuck Netflix for canceling it.
Also 1899.
I probably shouldn’t be surprised, but I can’t freaking believe that someone has the same two answers as me. We’ll get through this, friend.
i can think at least three reasons:
- great minds think alike
- those are great shows
- netflix sucks
Expanse, of course
Game of thrones, but it’s the new series 7 and it rewrites original 7 and 8 and they don’t exist anymore.

Firefly
The Expanse. The show had a satisfying ending but the books went a bit further into the future and I’d like to see more in the shows.
People have already beaten me to Firefly over and over again so I’ll add one likely to have been forgotten:
Carnivale.
Ended on an unbelievable cliffhanger, left SO MUCH unanswered, could’ve run for another decade. I’m re-mad that this show got canceled now.
