TV Shows That Should Never Have Been Taken Off The Air By   [89 more lists]

These are mostly shows from my childhood that I firmly believe should still be on the air. Although, a 30-year old Clarissa explaining it all might be just as off-putting as a 30 year old Buffy slaying vamps between changing diapers. On second thought, scratch that. Buffy was awesome. Dear TV Gods: Please bring Buffy back immediately. Love, Mollie.

    An incredible show. Well written, witty dialogue, fantastic acting, intelligent plot lines. Every Sunday night, I shed a little internal tear because it's not on.

    This was without a doubt the best show ever, Still hoping for a movie or mini series to wrap it up.

    I believe it was this show's time. All that Spike stuff at the end made me glad it was finally done with.

      Yeah, I mean, how many times can the Hellmouth almost cause the world to end? How many times can Buffy give up on saving people only to have a change of heart at the last minute? How many totally unsuitable men can she fall for before finally learning her lesson? You might be right....then again, every time I talk about Buffy, I miss it all over again. :(

    I second this! I'm pretty sure it'd be safe to say that my knowledge of world geography was built entirely from watching this show. All I can say is, "DO IT ROCKAPELLA!"

      Good point. I shall add Pete & Pete faster than you can say "there's a plate in my head that gets radio signals."

      Read the new comic series. It basically does what Joss wanted the show to be able to do but never had the tech or the $$. Aaand... I have to say, I still miss the show, even with the comic, which I am very happy to say does not include Spike.

      Good point, but it was kind of that show's time to go. Besides, if it hadn't ended, we would never have gotten those actors onto other shows.

    I don't think you realize how many episodes of this show they actually made. Do some research and check out the wiki page.

    Best show ever made for television, ever. Ever. I am still in mourning over this show's demise. And I shall never forgive Milch or HBO.

    Of all the Nick shows you have on here, I don't see 'Invader Zim' anywhere. Nickelodeon fucked that show in the ass so hard for no reason other than they didn't understand its appeal.
