Boston Legal. I thought it was great.

Isn´t there any Twin Peaks fans at all on this board?

Yeah, my answer is Twin Peaks, there will never be a more interesting show imo.

Yes!!!!! He is the funniest person currently on TV. And I think it is just as good as AD.

John Doe.

Interesting show with hell of a cliffhanger for the last episode. Lasted only one season.

how about a very obscure show called 'nowhere man'

Nice call, swifty -- great premise to say the least.

Me too. Just bought the series on DVD and re-watching.

Fox and their dang Friday night death slot.

Also liked The Flash.
Raven was also never given a chance.

I don't recall the name of the show since it was on when i was young. It also wasn't the best show in the world but i thought it had potential.

I think it may have been called misfits. It was about a couple of people (mainly kids) who had powers. I think the teen boy shot lighting and they had this really tall black guy who could shrink really small.

I was almost an early and low tech version of heroes. Just had alot of potential but got axed before it really made any impact.

assydingo · 01-27-2009, 01:24 PM

I thought of another, Animorphs =P.

I watched it when I was young. I say that because it may have sucked but I remember it very fondly.

juboxman · 01-27-2009, 01:43 PM

I listed it somewhere above. It was called "Misfits of Science", and starred a very young Courtney Cox.

Tru Calling
Planet of the Apes (1974 TV show)
Justice League Unlimited (I know it lasted awhile, but had the potential for so much more).

Twin Peaks--too bad Lynch had to jump the shark on network's orders
Toxic Crusaders--loved this cartoon growing up, but they only made a handful of episodes
Dark Skies--This show, along with The Profiler and The Pretender, made for an awesome Friday night back when I was too young to drive but old enough to stay up late!
Surface--NBC's attempt at making a LOST-type show. Full of mystery and sci-fi. Bad acting, but I didn't want it to end.
Pushing Daisies--Very original and unique. Liked the imagery a lot.

Did someone mention Prison Break? It's in its fourth season--doesn't count.

arrow61095 · 01-27-2009, 07:09 PM

I agree on American Gothic. Cut off before it even had a chance.

Here is another blast from the past (I'm probably the only person that remembers the show):

Mann & Machine --- Only 9 episodes. (Originally only aired 4).

Fastlane, once you move a primetime show to Friday nights, it doesn't stand a chance.

DutchBoy · 01-27-2009, 07:14 PM

Carnivale.

DavePS3 · 01-27-2009, 07:14 PM

American Gothic for me.
