5 TV Shows That Should Have Never Ended

We all have those television shows that we absolutely loved; the shows that we rushed home to watch or just couldn't get enough of. Unfortunately, not all shows get to stay on air for what feels like forever. Even more unfortunate is that some get canceled before they even have a chance to really go anywhere.
1. Freaks and Geeks
Freaks and Geeks: The Complete Series, $69.99 from Amazon
This show had so much potential, seriously though, the cast was everything they should have been. Who doesn't love a show about about high school kids who just don't seem to fit in? Even better, who doesn't love a show that features a young and mischievous James Franco?
2. Boy Meets World
Boy Meets World: The Complete First Season, $19.98 from Amazon
Who didn't love Cory Matthews and Topanga Lawrence? Seriously, they were like the perfect couple, and you know that you still want a love like theirs! As a kid the show was really educational; you could learn all the necessary life lessons from it! I completely understand why this show came to an end, but it was sad to see it go.
3. Daria

Daria: The Complete Animated Series, $72.99 from Amazon
Daria was my spirit animal. In high school I could have sworn we were the same person. This is the show is the only thing that MTV did right when it comes to not playing music. It was full-on satirical, as well as full of sarcasm and commentary on pop culture. It had the perfect amount of angst and carelessness.
4. My So-Called Life

My So-Called Life: The Complete Series (w/Book), $69.99 from Amazon
So maybe I wasn't old enough to understand the show when it first aired, but you can't deny, it was a great show. It dealt with issues that are relevant to teenagers' lives. They didn't do it by sugar coating the situations and the problems weren't solved at the end of the episode, either. Also, I can't be the only one that wanted Jordan Catalano to be my boyfriend!
5. Veronica Mars

Veronica Mars: The Complete First Season, $59.98 from Amazon
The cancellation of this show was so uncalled for! They didn't even end it on a good note. There was still so many things that needed to be wrapped up, and questions to be answered! Though, I must say Kristin Bell is brilliant through it all and she really knows how to draw a person in.
These were some of my favorite shows that got the axe. What are some of yours?

Um...FIREFLY?!
"Friday Night Lights" & "The Wire"
YES!!!! Daria and My So-Called Life are ESSENTIAL to life!!!!
I second Firefly.
Honestly, all shows have to end. But Firefly was murdered.
The Chicago Code was one of the new shows this year that I enjoyed. :(
Clone High. Who's with me? I freakin loved that show! Anyone who gets Clone High references is tops in my book.
I LOVE Daria! xx
charmed... sabrina the teenage witch.....
sigh. i rewatch them from time to time!
I agree with Boy Meets World!
I dvr it every morning & watch it(: ahh good times!
Boy Meets World and Daria!! <3
BOY MEETS WORLD!!!!! <3 <3 <3
Actually... Some of those shows (specifically Boy Meets World) should have ended. They came to the end of their series. It was done. The story was made and told and shared with millions. It was time for the actors to move on.
One show that DEFINITELY ended PREMATURELY and should NOT have ended... is The Gates. Fucking LOVED that show... And they ended it after the first season... LOTS of loose ends... ugh... It disappoints me. Such a good show...
pushing daisies, arrested development :(
Dollhouse and if cartoons count, then Magic School Bus. Haha.
2, 3 & 4 FTW!!! I was SO excited for the Daria DVDs & it's better than nothing but I hate that they didnt get music clearance. Part of the reason Daria was so epic was the music! Alot of my favorite songs came from hearing the show. I cried when it ended. It started when I was in middle school & ended the year before I graduated high school.
As for My So-Called Life, that shit is Claire Danes fault!!! The show was a success & would have gone on but she said she didnt want to do it anymore. Idiot...
@vicdaily@xanga - The Magic School Bus was awesome!! I miss the days when educational TV was fun!
Firefly, Arrested Development... of course Freaks and Geeks. Celebrity Deathmatch, it's a shame it didn't last longer. What about Dark Angel? Mm, Jessica Alba.
Firefly!!! ha boys meet world! (:
Agreed on all of these. Perfect list!
@pentagrams@xanga - YES! Arrested Development!
Third to Firefly. And...I really enjoyed the first two seasons of Veronica Mars but halfway through the third season, I got really disenchanted. I agree about wanting it to end on a healthier note and that Kristin Bell is awesome!
Boy Meets World and The Angry Beavers.
Firefly.
@proudsmartypants@xanga - Agreed! Firefly should not have been canceled! I'm still in love with damn show and find myself quoting it a lot! Dollhouse was also taken before it's time....stupid Fox....Rupert Murdoch is a bastard!!!
Hey Arnold! Because Arnold and Helga were going to like finally profess their love for each other in the 2nd movie.
But seriously, No Ordinary Family. And Animaniacs.
