ew.com— We look back at canceled series. See why Jericho, Veronica Mars, Arrested Development are among those you'd revive at your pop culture seance.

I can't say it any better than the author of the article. I've lost shows I've liked before, but the loss of Jericho is a special kind of heartbreak for me. Maybe it's because it's the first show I ever actually fought for or maybe it's because of all those wonderful people I was in the fight with. But Jericho will always be a special town to me.
''Jericho is one of the best dramas on television. But the network never really gave it a fighting chance. Seven episodes? Premiering mid-season? And not playing re-runs of the entire first season even when there was nothing better to air during the writers' strike? They had every intention of killing this great show (which is such the antithesis of CBS I'm not sure how it made it on in the first place) and replacing it with more lame reality shows, unfunny sitcoms and incarnations of CSI.'' ?BestRx: This guy must be living inside my head!! I cried when CBS canceled this show AGAIN!! (Welcome2CHO)

Surface, Invasion, Black Donneleys- this list could go on forever and be Top100 cancelled shows. Give EW some break for bringing some classics to the list. And also tired of you people whining about 1 picture per page- big deal; or browser not working- hell I got FF 3b5 w/ NoScript and AdBlockPlus and it works- something is really wrong with your settings. Dugg for discovering Drive and Boomtown.
Great that they included Canivale, Farscape and Max Headroom. Bad that they missed The Invisible Man, Dead Like Me and Brisco County Jr.. Bunch of assh**es for leaving off FIREFLY.More that they missed:Keen EddieActionUndeclaredThe Job (although kind of resurrected as Rescue Me)Greg The BunnyTitus
JerichoAngelFireflyCarnivaleFarscapeJake 2.0Odyssey 5Startrek: EnterpriseAll great shows canceled way before their time but I have to say why in the hell did he talk about Drive yet didn't mention Firefly and also he talked about Jake 2.0 yet didn't mention Odyssey 5........ Seriously what the hell. The funny part is the way they left the endings on these shows its like here was a great show we will end it with a way that was never ment to be left IN YOUR FACE FANS MHAHAHAH. Dam bastards.

I only recently started watching Veronica Mars. It breaks my heart knowing that it ends after the 3rd season. :(
