Day 01 - A show that should have never been canceled
Most of the people I know would say Firefly, and I agree with that 100%. But it isn’t the only show: Wonderfalls, Earth 2, American Gothic, Farscape, and Futurama are all on that list. These last two at least got some reprieve. Farscape got a movie, and Futurama got several movies and was just renewed.
Star Trek Enterprise was finally hitting its stride at the end of the 3rd season and all of the 4th season, even with its reduced budget for that last season. What Star Trek could really use, to be a really successful TV show, is the freedom to write interesting stories that can’t be found on broadcast TV or basic cable. Star Trek needs to be on AMC or HBO and to have the ability to tell stories the same way Mad Men or The Wire does.
Happy adoption day Lucymonster!
