This show was a spin-off show of Battlestar Galactica, showing the very first Cylon and how it came to be.
It was cool as hell, and I was so pissed when it got cancelled, because they already had a pilot preview done for season 2, teasing what was gonna happen next.

Samurai Pizza Cats was also goated, but cancelled after just 1 season after being over-hyped as a "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles killer". Spoiler alert: It wasn't... They even diss the Ninja Turtles in their opening theme. But I still loved the show and wanna get the Blu-ray eventually.

I Am going to choose to ignore the abomination of the reboot and say the original run of Arrested Development. It was a joke back in the day that FOX always cancelled good shows after one season or midway through a season and it’s even a miracle the show had three seasons to begin with. Arrested Development constantly had the short end of the stick. I often think about what a season 4 or 5 would be on FOX instead of the bullshit we got on Netflix last decade. season 3 wasn’t the best of the show, but if I judge the quality of 4 to 3, the disparity isn’t even close.

Similarly, Twin Peaks ended on a gnarly cliffhanger, and while I still enjoy The Return, as a Lynch film and not a direct continuation of the show, I think I would be more interested in what a season 3 would be like in the quirky, soap opera-y setting of the first two seasons, if ABC didn’t mismanage the show terribly.

Shows that ended too soon that I deeply miss:
Oliver Beene
Maybe It’s Me
Mission Hill
Quintuplets
The Oblongs


Oh, and The Santa Clarita Diet ended frustratingly on a cliffhanger as well.

Super unpopular and don't think many people even watched it

But "Do No Harm"

That cliffhanger at the end of s1. Man wish that show got more.

Was pulled from airing after 4 episodes. At least they eventually released the rest of the season
 
This was the show that taught me that I'm into bad bitches. Jessica Alba was my first celebrity crush back in the late 90's.

Sucks the show only got 2 seasons.

I remember ads for this show! I'm sure being created by James Cameron gave it a boost with the network. My question is does the show end in any kind of satisfying way, or does it stop on a cliffhanger?
