TV Revivals / Sequel Series that were Scrapped

[kevin87]

There was a spinoff for The Middle centered around Sue in development at ABC, but wasn't picked up and never landed anywhere else. Probably because it'd follow her after the "current" timeline ended on The Middle, despite the finale's flashforwards to show them in the future. Why have a series when we know what's going to happen?

Spin-offs are not what I am referring to here. These are shows that had ended (or were cancelled) and were then later brought back.

Some examples that happened are the new episodes of Murphy Brown, Mad About You, Will & Grace.

Might be a spinoff, but it'd a sequel series for the character after the main show ended.
