      - forgot about that...she was very good too -- nm - Flavorize Nov 20, 21:18
Hmm, forgot about Grinder. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 20, 20:51
Better Off Ted (of course), Fawlty Towers, Sports Night, Sirens and Dead Like Me. -- nm* - Krusty Nov 20, 20:50
Brisco County Jr. qualifies. -- nm - Mop Nov 20, 20:48 2

8pm The Neighbors - Better Off Ted. 9pm Pushing Daisies. 10pm Rome -- nm - Jovian Nov 20, 20:48 3
- or 10pm Journeyman. Rome kind of did its thing with 2 seasons. - Jovian Nov 20, 20:49 2
  - Life. -- nm - Mop Nov 20, 20:55
  - Yeah, journeyman was good. Liked him way better on that show than as Owen. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 20, 20:50
Earth 2, Space Above & Beyond, and Firefly are all viable candidates for your 1 hour slot. -- nm - Mop Nov 20, 20:46
Human Target, Almost Human, Invader ZIM, The Tick -- nm - Beryllium Nov 20, 20:43 4
- Does The Tick count as cancelled at this point? -- nm - David Nov 20, 20:43 3
  - I argue it does. The new Amazon series is unrelated to the original one. -- nm - Mop Nov 20, 20:45
  - I'm talking about the one that featured Patrick Warburton and the APOCALYPSE COW. The new thing is a reboot. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 20, 20:45 1
    - Ooh, and Batmanuel -- nm - Beryllium Nov 20, 20:46
...and only shows that aired on Fox. -- nm - Mop Nov 20, 20:42 6

  - Brisco County Jr is my long show with 2 episodes -- nm - peglegpete Nov 20, 20:47
- lol no! Any cancelled show in history that ran 2 seasons or less. -- nm - Jovian Nov 20, 20:43 3
  - I can fill a week’s worth of programming from Fox shows alone based on your criteria. -- nm - Mop Nov 20, 20:45 2
    - Would that include Drive? -- nm - Beryllium Nov 20, 20:50 1
      - In no reality does that include Drive. -- nm - Mop Nov 20, 20:52
do documentaries count as a cancelled tv show since most are only 1 or a handful of episodes. -- nm - peglegpete Nov 20, 20:41 1
- no documentaries. no one-offs or meant as one-offs (ie Band of Brothers) -- nm - Jovian Nov 20, 20:42
The Brink; Better Off Ted; Knights of Prosperity; Dead at 21; Clone High -- nm - prayformojo Nov 20, 20:37 1
- Read the rules people! 😄 -- nm - MDH Nov 20, 20:39
Firefly, Studio 60, Better Off Ted & The Good Place -- nm - Flavorize Nov 20, 20:36 3
- Cancelled TV shows get good place outta here -- nm - Bacon Nov 20, 20:37 2
  - Wait a few months---it's too smart and not enough drama. It'll get the heave-ho. It's not a show that survives is Trumps America -- nm - Flavorize Nov 20, 20:42 1
    - You're now on a 3 year timeout for putting that negativity out there. - the wrong element, bad guy Nov 20, 20:52
