TV shows you grew to love, and then they bombed — Page 4

I remember The Charmings. The wife was like a snow white character, right? I remember that they were facinated by the mic-ro-WAVE!

OH, yes!!! Homefront! That was a terrific show. Kyle Chandler was Jeff, the baseball player. His family kept buying bread because his card was supposed to be in it but they could never get it. The rich family, meanwhile, got his card everytime and threw them away...

Hopefully it's going to Showtime.

I can't think of any current shows, but when I was in elementary school there was a show on Nickelodeon called "The Tomorrow People," and my friends and I loved it, but there were only a few episodes before it was taken off the air.

Katt -- you confused me there -- "old" shows? Those shows range from the last couple of years to some 20 years ago (unless they were still making new You Can't Do That On Television and Double Dare episodes recently...)

Ahh Double Dare -- I always used to get so mad at it because I thought the questions were too easy - I would never have gotten the chance to do a physical challenge if I was on the show.

Space Cases. I remember being crushed when I found out it was cancelled.

I was gonna say Reunion too, but it somehow was revealed who the murderer was, my sister found out and told me anyway, don't know what else was revealed or how it happened, but PM me if you wanna know the murderer.

"Buffy was my favorite show...ever. But it made me so mad sometimes."

Oh, amen! I too was a Buffy/Angel fanatic, and season 2 when he went bad, best season ever...I mean sure it drove me crazy but I was glued to my set every second and the season 2 finale...may be the best episode of a TV show I ever saw, I say best not favorite b/c god I was crying for hours after, was supposed to study for a ss test and I was getting tears all over my textbook...what a great episode(though I was mad at Xander for a while...)

Anyway, yeah was devestated when Angel got his own show and Buffy was never the same after season 3. I detested Riley, so much so that I actually kinda liked Buffy/Spike in season 5, but once Riley was gone for good and such, they totally ruined them in season 6 and I still missed Angel. But yeah, I don't think I've ever been so emotionally invested in a show. Cried after Innocence, bawled after Becoming Part 2, cried when Angel came to Buffy's rescue in the 4th ep. of season 4 said Buffy shrank to his knees and she cried, cried when it started snowing on Christmas, cried when he broke up w/ her and during the prom, cried when he walked away, bawled during IWRY, cried when I watched his show for her guest appearance only to see them fight, bawled during "The Body," teared up during "The Gift," cried the beginning of "Grave," when Giles came back, cried pretty hard during the end w/ what Xander was saying, and most of the 7th season made me cry b/c it was so bad. I couldn't believe they knocked out Xander's eye. And Buffy telling Giles you have nothing more to teach me?? WTF?? So not anything you would hear/see from Buffy/Giles. Kennedy was really annoying too, but not as annoying as Riley.

The musical episode was ingenious though--god Joss Whedon is just a genius. And yeah, I couldn't watch Angel after they killed off Riley. And the priest dude from Firefly or whatever was really annoying too. And then they killed Jonathan! That season I think epitomizes what you said, I loved the show so much, and got soo pissed after every episode of the 7th season, but I couldn't not watch. Ulgh.

*very tempted to watch her Buffy second season DVD*

Book of Daniel
The Street
Brimstone

Yeah, Suzee was boring. Too bookish.

Are You Afraid of the Dark is excellent...my best friend got me illegal DVDs of all the episodes for my birthday last year. I forgot how much I loved it!

James, I watch Legends all the time on GAS (Nickelodeon's Games and Sports)! The glories of digital cable...

For Halloween last year, some of my friends dressed up as contestants from the show...they had four full teams, complete with the khakis, shirts, gold helmets, and watershoes. It was genius!

Other than some already mentioned,

There was this great show called Profit back in the 1990's, with Adrian Pasdar.

Also, The Pretender was pretty fun to watch.

Glad that someone remembered it! *goes off to search it* I can only seem to remember one episode clearly and never what it was called, so thanks alot. Everyone I asked always got it confused with the one about the Dinosaur family. With the little "I'm the baby gotta love me" baby dino. As you can see tv show titles are not my specialty.
