Thought this was an interesting question and I’m sure there’s lots of suggestions out there.

Firefly. There is no other answer for me.
Came here to say this. The movie helped but not as much as another season.
There is nothing really close. Better off Ted is an obvious if distant number 2 for me.
1899
I’m still heartbroken Netflix cancelled it because it had the unfortunate timing of airing at the same time as Wednesday. The directors’ previous series, “Dark”, was a proper mindfuck.
Dark was amazing. I didn’t bother with 1899 after I heard that it was cancelled.
I think I’m developing a fear of commitment with shows these days, with so many cancelations
Fringe
Sense8. There’s nothing else quite like it. I really wanted to see more of that story, I’ll never forgive Netflix for cancelling it.
Of course, there are the classics: Firefly, Better Off Ted, Hannibal, Carnivale (::shakes fist at the air::).
But I’d love to see the rest of The Nevers. They unveiled the big twist and there are 6 more episodes floating in the ether yet to be aired.
Lockwood & Co. was so perfectly cast. It broke my heart not to get a season 2!
I’d love to see more of “Don’t Trust the B… in Apt. 23.” Kristen Ritter was so great in that!
And I’d like to see how the relationship in “Selfie” played out, it ended on such a hopeful note. Karen Gillan and John Cho had a weird, quirky chemistry.
I had no idea that they cancelled Lockwood & Co! Ugh that’s depressing. That show really surprised me and I liked it a lot.
The Expanse
Pushing Daisies
Mindhunter, without a doubt.
I’m still sad when I think of what could’ve been
My Name is Earl
Stargate Universe! The way it ended was so unfair and yet the perfect setup for something new. There’s been rumors brewing for years and years at this point but nothing concrete has happened yet.
Adventure Time. It really needed one more season to fully flesh out the storylines they set up. Cartoon Network really screwed them (and other shows like SU) over
Game of thrones, but it’s the new series 7 and it rewrites original 7 and 8 and they don’t exist anymore.
Final Space.
Olan had one season left before the company buried the show as a tax write off
Reading this made me look it up. Final Space was more than a one season show?? Guess I have some catching up to do.
If you missed it, Olan got a deal to put out a hardback graphic novel tying up the show, called Final Space Ends. Upside: a real ending. Downside: not a show, not available digitally(one of Warner’s conditions), and it’s $125. Tentatively scheduled to ship late next year.
So realistically it doesn’t have an ending, because there is a zero percent chance I will ever pay $125 for it…
People have already beaten me to Firefly over and over again so I’ll add one likely to have been forgotten:
Carnivale.
Ended on an unbelievable cliffhanger, left SO MUCH unanswered, could’ve run for another decade. I’m re-mad that this show got canceled now.
