TV Shows That (Probably) Died Too Soon | Gunaxin Media. By Stew Miller ( @StewWriter ) on August 10th, 2010 Ask any fan of television what their favorite short-lived TV show is and you’re certainly going to get a slew of different answers. For some reason, TV is a sadistic and fickle mistress that tries too hard to introduce new and exciting programming, while at the same time preparing to sever its spinal column and shove something different and supposedly better into the same time slot. It happens all the time, and it’s all about ratings. If your show doesn’t woo everyone right away, you might as well forget surviving much further than a handful of episodes. Kinda sad really. Then what happens? Automan (1983-1984) Manimal (1983) The Flash (1990-1991) Flash Gordon (2007-2008) Jericho (2006-2008) Eli Stone (2008-2009) The Dresden Files (2007) Megas XLR (2004-2005) Max Headroom (1986) Action (1999-2000) The Prisoner (1967-1968) Quark (1977-1978) Nowhere Man (1995-1996) Miracles (2003) The Adventures of Brisco County, Junior (1993-1994) Love Monkey (2006)
Fall TV's Best Bets - TV Feature at IGN. Man, oh man. Is it almost Fall already? But it was just Summer. Where does the time go? Oh, well. School will be back in session soon. The leaves will change their colors. And everyone in America will go nuts trying to figure out which new TV series to devote their precious time to. Fall TV means a veritable onslaught of new shows, most of which, like the delicate life cycle of a newborn sea turtle, will not survive. Want to know which new shows to watch?
