    So many people want Firefly, yet they say it had bad ratings....
    Methinks they lie.

    They didn't leave it on long enough for anyone to find it. There were only 13 episodes.

    Firefly was an amazing show, but being that Fox pre-empted it for every stupid sporting event in the free world no one was able to watch it enough at the time. It had a very loyal following, but the giant number of people loving it now are people that never even watched it when it aired, they're the people that saw the movie 'Serenity' and then went back and watched the series and were like 'why the eff would this be cancelled?'

    Also I don't know if this counts, because there is supposed to be a second series (which I don't see happening tbh) - Les Revenants

    I was going to put that myself! Everything still seems to be saying 'filming end of 2014' but the kids in it are only going to be getting older... I'd hate to see it go as it is though.

    Firefly (I never even saw it until it was off the air for years)
    Shades of LA
    Love and Curses

    I think I'm the only person who ever saw the second and third ones on my list.

    It jumped the Shark after Duchovny left. If he'd stayed put I bet it could have gone years longer.

    scrubs...its my favorite show of all time. and no i do not count the "9th season" that wasn't the real scrubs to me anymore :P

    I agree. The ninth season cannot even be called Scrubs. I really wish I would not have watched it.
