Name ten cancelled shows you love. Extra credit for those killed before their time. Double extra credit for shows with major queer text/subtext.

Jake 2.0: Duh. I adored the hell out of it, and they killed it. And they didn't even give us a whole season, damn it.

Now and Again: There is a reason I love Eric Close. If they could put this out on DVD, I'd appreciate it.

The Flash: No, seriously. Of course, I was about thirteen when it was on TV, but I'm pretty sure John Wesley Shipp was one of my first crushes.

Firefly: You know, I didn't really watch it when it was on TV, but now that I have it on DVD, I'm so pissed about it getting cancelled. I need the movie yesterday.

The Invisible Man: Vincent Ventresca. Mmmm.

Max Headroom: I can remember watching that when I was a wee one, and maaaaan ... I hate TV execs. Cancelling good stuff. Ugh.

Cupid: Another show I only saw after it had been cancelled. Sometimes the Sci-Fi Channel is both a godsend and a vicious taunt.

Strange Luck: DB Sweeney once a week, and weird, almost supernatural luck of both the good and bad variety. What wasn't to love?

Clerks: You know, the cartoon. Someone seriously needs to explain to me why this was cancelled after a handful of episodes. (I'm not being literal. Please don't explain it to me. You'll only depress me.)

Buffy the Vampire Slayer: It had its day, but it could have gone on for the rest of my life and I would have been happy it was at least there.

Bonus -- Misfits of Science: I can't really remember if it was cancelled or it just ended because Dean Paul Martin died in a plane crash, but I have such good memories of that show and really wish they'd release it on DVD. (Shyeah, right.)

Re: more than ten, sorry...

Oh yeah...the TZ marathon. Sci-Fi's been doing that for the last couple of years, and I tape it every year. I figure by now I probably have them all, or nearly so. Which'll have to do until I can scrape up the bucks to buy the series on DVD. (Pricey!)

As for sit-coms...I can't remember the last one I liked that wasn't also animated. Might've been Soap...which just goes to point out how long it's been since the networks put out what I consider a decent sit-com. I'm pretty sure if they deep-sixed every sitcom on the air now that used real actors instead of animation, it wouldn't change my viewing habits one bit.
