When I posted that, I didn't know Ray Stevenson had died at age 58.

THE RAY STEVENSON NEWS WAS QUITE SHOCKING.

Yh he was great as The Punisher.
RIP

"Freaks And Geeks" - One of my older sisters and I wrote letters to NBC begging them not to cancel this show. It's the only time I've ever done this...unfortunately, it didn't do any good. 😢

reply

ABSOLUTELY...AMAZING SHOW...FREAKS AND GEEKS AND FIREFLY ARE THE TWO THAT ALWAYS COME TO MIND FOR ME.

reply

Same here.

reply

Definitely

reply

Agree completely.

Firefly (there were great characters and a lot of potential)

Happy Town (this just disappeared unfinished, obviously the ratings were bad but damn, at least play out the string)

Jericho (true, it got 30 episodes but never resolved the story satisfactorily)

reply

I loved Jeicho it was sad that it ended.

reply

JAYNE LIVES ON FOREVER IN MY SOUL.

reply

I HAVE A KOREAN BOOTLEG SET OF THE ENTORE SERIES OF JERICHO...BUT I HAVE NEVER WATCHED IT...MY SISTER AND HER EX LOVED IT WHEN IT WAS ON...THEY WERE ALWAYS TRYING TO TALK ME INTO WATCHING IT...BUT I TRY LIKE HELL TO AVAOID TV SHOWS IN GENERAL...BUT HOUR LONG ONES ESPECIALLY.

reply

Hannibal.

reply

Definitely! Brilliant performance by Mads Mikkelsen.

Review is great, and it managed a good run before ending. The original Australian version is also fun.

As far as one season wonders go, Terriers had a several years of potential mileage when it was unceremoniously cancelled.

reply

Yep. Review ended way too soon, unfortunately. The original Australian show is also funny. Definitely prefer the US version, though.

Never heard of Terriers. Gonna check that one out.

Freaks and Geeks
My So Called Life

It was weird that MSCL didn't last. I remember it getting rave reviews at the time.

reply

Would have been nice for Carnivale to have been able to run it's course.

reply

"Life" from 2007 only two seasons.

reply

OOOH...GREAT SHOW...I WATCHED SEASON ONE ON TV... LOVED IT...I OWN THE TWO SEASONS BUT HAVE NOT GOTTEN AROUND TO WATCHING THEM.

reply

I have not seen it since & have no idea how well it holds up and all that

But I freaking loved it when it was airing. It was one of my favorite shows.

reply

Oh man, that was an excellent show. That's the show that made me a fan of Damian Lewis. He was so great

Didn't even know he was British till years later
