But it was canceled

Day 01 - A show you wish had never been canceled
Day 02 - A show that you wish more people were watching

Day 03 - Your favorite new show (aired this t.v season)

I'm gonna bump this back to the 09-10 season as opposed to the summer season, as most summer seasons are just getting underway.

My favorite new show (actually, the ONLY new show) this TV season was The Forgotten on ABC. It was a new twist on crime drama, as it didn't focus on the forensics or even the cops/lawyers, but instead on a group of volunteers belonging to The Forgotten Network who work hard to identify the remains of "cold cases" so that family can be reached and renew the efforts to solve the crimes in the first place. Each member had their reasons for being part of the network (an ex-cop whose daughter had been kidnapped, the wife of a prominent figure who had been embroiled in scandal, a woman who was unsatisfied with her job, a man who wanted to good, and a troubled artist there on orders from a judge) and brought unique perspectives, resources and skills to the team. Further more, the victim narrated the story, reflecting on how the ended up dead as more clues about their identity and their murder came to light. The idea was to highlight that victim was a real person - a wife, a father, a daughter, a husband, a mother - who had family wanting to know what happened to them. Based on a real group of volunteers who work with police departments across the country, the show had a lot of promise.

Sadly, it wasn't much in the ratings, as the show was canceled after only 17 episodes. Let's see if we get something just as interesting next fall.
