Agreed. This is always my immediate response.
Firefly. Agreed
The question really needs to include "other than Firefly" to get other answers. Although, it's much less common than it used to be... I'm getting old.
Looks down at tshirt.... Yup
Firefly. There is no other answer for me.
Came here to say this. The movie helped but not as much as another season.
Firefly ππ
Shiny!
This is very difficult... and we must be very careful indeed...
You shouldn't ask for MORE simply because you enjoyed it.
Friends already seemed to go on endlessly - but most shows are rightly put to bed and overshadowed by newer and better ideas.
Now I'm watching Blue Light
and don't miss NYPD blue.... I still watch Kojak occasionally, but I sure wouldn't want any MORE.
Gentleman Jack

Awesome stuff
-
HBO sucks and I hate them (but Band of Brothers was almost perfect, except that it was a little bit too restricted/condensed/reduced).
Black Mirror
'Nuff said.
- Given that this is a collection of stories, and that I started READING stories a lot more recently (currently just finished
Harrison Bergeron
- the second story in "Welcome to the Monkeyhouse" written by Kurt Vonnegut. These stories are brilliant ideas put into short form - perfect.
Quantum Leap
- was almost as good, but a little more formulaic - so I'd vote for Black Mirror to take the flag forward for interesting short stories.
Talking about Black Mirror...
The OA
- Going back in history...
Firefly
Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles
- Anything of that time with Summer Glau looking incredibly gorgeous. Sure, you know I'm right - even when it's bad, it's just really good.
Scarborough (2019)
- lovely, and took me back to some childhood holidays.
Victoria (2016-19)
- certainly died too early (I love Jenna Coleman).
Tom and Jerry (original style, painted on glass, with no fear of being politically correct or educational).
Pink Panther
-
I know, they DID do more, a lot more Tom and Jerry - but most of that just sucks and I don't know why people even liked the continuation once the original atmosphere was lost. HD brought nothing to Tom n Jerry for sure.
-
Pink Panther owes 90% of it's success to bad drawing, amazing music, and sheer atmosphere surrounding mostly not amazing stories if the truth be told... but it worked so well. Hours of endless fun with just one bucket of blue, and another of pink paint... yes, you know what I'm talking about.
I still have a 'random cartoon' habit with Pink Panther/Tom n Jerry
There isn't much room for anything else in there.
I just wish there had been MORE of them.
I wish the answer here was "Westworld".
That first season was perfect television. And that season finale? My god. I was so excited to watch season 2 and it... just fell short on all fronts. It has its moments, but ultimately failed to measure up to that first season.
Which would have been okay, but then season 3 and 4 happened, and diluted the overall quality of the show to a point where I stopped recommending the show to anyone and just tell them to stick to S1.
I want to live in a timeline where we left off on that S1 ending wondering what could have been.
firelfy
Gravity falls
Mindhunter, without a doubt.
I'm still sad when I think of what could've been
The Expanse
Expanse ended on a good point. We would probably need at least 2 seasons to finish up the final trilogy. If one extra season would be all we got, I'd not want it tbh.
Pushing Daisies
I would have said Party Down but they went ahead and did it. I haven't seen the new episodes yet though...
Final Space.
Olan had one season left before the company buried the show as a tax write off
Reboot, a Canadian CGI kids show about happenings inside a computer, the guardians, the viruses, the web, I used to love that show.
It ended in an intense cliffhanger π
So, um, kind of a monkey paw situation here...It did get an, ahem, "reboot"...Which was a hybrid live action/CGI show. It's not another season, and that's honestly probably the most disheartening part of it. Like you pulled enough together to do something more Reboot-related and that's where you went with it?
It's just...There. It's not very good, and it's not even so bad it's good either. It's more like a live action Code Lyoko than Reboot tbh, and it can't even get that right.
My Name is Earl. I want to know who is Earl Jr's father.
I Am Not Okay With This
Had a great first season on Netflix, then got cancelled. I think it had to do with COVID, but still, that was a horrible cliffhanger ending. Any kind of continuation would be amazing.
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.
Unironically Mindhunter. I'm so mad it's been canceled. Such a great show.
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.
Haven't seen anyone mention The OA yet.
That series needs to be finished!
Sense8. There's nothing else quite like it. I really wanted to see more of that story, I'll never forgive Netflix for cancelling it.
Another Dexter season. I want to see if they can make a worse finale than the two they already did.
Stargate Universe. First season was garbage, but from like half of season 2 forward it was really good, and it ended on a huge cliff hanger
I would love another season of scrubs!
I know the last season (med school) was wildly unpopular, but i actually started warming up to it near the end. I feel like another season would have actually been pretty good
I was gonna say Raised by wolves and Adventure Time, but I see those have gotten the deserved attention so I'm gonna add Kidding. Not because it was left in a bad way, but it was just an amazing show.
...but I mean Raised by wolves just hurts, it was just peaking goddamnit!
Adventure Time. It really needed one more season to fully flesh out the storylines they set up. Cartoon Network really screwed them (and other shows like SU) over
Infinity train
