Hadn't Seinfeld been on for, like, twenty years? (I jest, but it has, what? Nine seasons? Sometimes it's better to let go.) Boy Meets World just wasn't the same when they went to college. As much as I loved the high school years, I was glad to see them put it out of its misery. Eric had become a caricature, and once Corey and Topanga got married...well, remember Moonlighting?


But to the list, I'd add:

Firefly

The Others

The Adventures of Brisco County, Jr.

Brimstone

Now & Again (not to be confused with the Sela Ward show)

I totally agree with Arrested Development. I'd also add Love Monkey, I only saw a few shows and then it was just gone.

It use to watch it in passing when I was a kid. I believe it was cancelled when I was nine, or something. I never got the fool effect! I have the series on dvd now, and I really wish it wasn't discontinued.

I'd like to add Journeyman, Daybreak and Traveller to the list. All shows that had plenty of promise. At least ABC released Daybreak on dvd so although they failed to show the whole season I am catching up on the series at the moment so no spoilers please!
For me the most disappointing one was Journeyman. The show had so much potential and there's no sign of it being released on dvd yet. I really loved that show!

Boomtown. I will be bitter about this one till the day I die. Possibly even after.

Chaos--Now and Again... was that the show about the guy? And the woman? You know who I mean? I liked that show. They were running away at the end. I still wonder if they made it...

Studio 60. It wasn't nearly as good as The West Wing, and had some major problems. But they really needed a second season to get into the groove. It was still ten times better written than most of the stuff on tv.

Seinfeld had run its course. And, coming from, honestly, THE MOST HARDCORE of Boy Meets World fans...it was time.

My So-Called Life is just the archetypical show that was canceled prematurely. It was so frickin brilliant. **goes to cry and watch her DVDs**
