Which TV series should have gone on?

Posted on 07/19/2014 8:28:11 PM PDT by MNDude

Most TV series "jump the shark" or get bad long before they end. But there's always a few that you wish that went on at least another season. Which TV series or program(s) do you wish hadn't ended when it did but continued on at least another year?

Babylon 5 and Earth Final Conflict.

Star Trek on the other hand could have done without its reincarnation as Deep Sleep 9 or Voyager.

They milked a dry cow with those two.

As a LONG-time trekkie, my vote is for MORE and MORE and MORE and MORE and MORE and MORE and MORE and MORE ”StarTrek” shows and movies. I can't get enough of them.

I dunno... Enterprise was so bad.
(And before it, Voyager was pretty disappointing in the story-telling arena; I think sfdebris put his finger on it when he mocks the "Magic Reset Button").

And the new movies are pretty bad once you dive below the action/effects — hey you there, you're the new pilot!

Method and Red. That show cracked me up for all 12 episodes.
