    Let's see, in no particular order:

    ...
    Manimal (Yes, I DID say Manimal, and I will NOT watch what Will Ferrell will do to destroy it!)
    ...

    I'm astonished that anyone else remembers Manimal. One of my all-time favorites. It never shows up on the rerun channels or the streaming services, not that I've seen. I guess the fact they only made 8 episodes may have something to do with that!

    And to think...I was only 8 years old when Dr. Jonathan Chase became my first crush!

    WOOOOW! Simon McCorkindale....I can't believe anyone else watched this show.

    How about The Tick, both the animated show and the short-lived live-action version. Offbeat, but I thought it was hilarious :)

    "Spoooon!"

    The finder.

    Oh I forgot about that one.. Man that was an annoying cliffhanger ending. And then cancelled. B*stards.


    edited for speeeling. :tongue:
    Well one of the main charchters did die IRL, so there is that. I hoped it would go longer as well. Probably just becuase I want that guys life owning a bar in the Keys sounds like my perfect job.

    They cancelled it before he died... but yeah.

    Alcatraz
    Voyages (I think was the name; predates Quantum Leap, starred a teenager and an actor who later died from a prop gun going off)

    Almost Human
    This was one I forgot to list before. I can't believe this one got dropped. Maybe it was expensive to produce or something.

    I am so not a sci-fi fan! I love, love, love everything Joss Whedon and I tried watching this on Netflix and just couldn't get into it at all. I love every actor in it and I love Joss and it was well-written and everything, but it just didn't "do it" for me.

    But now I'm reminded that Doll House should have lasted 50 years. That was a great one (and an exception to my sci-fi aversion).

    Also, Angel.

    I might be late to the party again, but Soap. My mom would tell me about the show and when it came out on DVD she got it. The way season 4 ended you could tell there should have been more seasons and sometimes I wonder how it would have ended if it wasn't so abruptly cancelled.

    Kindred: The Embraced


    (for those that never heard of it)

    http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0115232/?ref_=nv_sr_1

    I liked it too, despite it's wonky take on the WoD. Don't let your lead actor ride motorbikes...

    Also loved "Space - Above and Beyond'. I think it was ahead of its time as well.
