TV Shows that Never had a Chance

Shows that only had one season or less, but should have lived on for years.

My pick would be Earth 2.
The story lines were well planned out and the characters were distinct.
I loved that it was not another Sci-Fi show that depended on
half-naked women and crazy space creatures that you only saw for one episode.

Season 1 it was slottted opposite Dallas and Miami Vice.
It was moved to a cherry picked slot for season 2, only to be upstaged by the first season of The Cosby Show.; ▶ Reply to This

Fox bungled the advertizing for the pilot. I understand the series did well on radio in the UK.; ▶ Reply to This

In my opinion one of the best new shows this season that unfortunately was not picked up for a 2nd season. Another is Big Shots, but if I had to pick one to bring back I'd prefer Journeyman.; ▶ Reply to This

I watched a couple of them and they were interesting.; ▶ Reply to This

I was really hoping that one of the cable networks would have picked it up (read Sci-Fi Channel LOL) I think it would have been a perfect fit for a lead in or out for Eureka or something like that.; ▶ Reply to This

Others. Def Firefly that has been mentioned, Tru Calling, invasion and surface were decent too!

I loved Millenium, that only lasted 3 seasons.; ▶ Reply to This
