There are plenty of TV shows that probably ended exactly when they needed to. Then there are the cancellations that viewers are apparently prepared to complain about forever. Sometimes a series disappeared just as it was finding its rhythm, while others left behind cliffhangers, unfinished stories, or simply a very specific kind of television nobody has managed to replace. Even decades later, fans still bring up the same titles whenever someone asks which cancelled show deserves another chance. Of course, bringing a favorite back can be risky, especially when the original run already feels special. Still, these viewers know exactly which cancellations they would reverse. Here are 15 people sharing the cancelled TV shows they need back.

Celebrity Deathmatch
One viewer admitted they enjoyed MTV’s claymation celebrity battles “a little too much”. The bizarre series turned pop culture feuds into ridiculously exaggerated fights and developed a cult following.

Eureka
A fan still hated seeing Eureka end, even while admitting that its final story arc worked well. The quirky Syfy series mixed small-town comedy with increasingly strange scientific disasters.

Almost Human
One commenter nominated Almost Human, the futuristic procedural starring Karl Urban and Michael Ealy. Its mix of detective stories and science fiction lasted just one season before Fox cancelled it.

Arrested Development
Not everyone was convinced that bringing a cancelled favorite back is actually a good idea. One viewer pointed to Arrested Development’s eventual revival and suggested some shows are better left alone.

Foster’s Home for Imaginary Friends
One person simply wanted Foster’s Home for Imaginary Friends back. The Cartoon Network series built an entire world around the imaginary friends children eventually outgrew.

Quantum Leap
A fan missed how Quantum Leap focused on ordinary people and their problems rather than constantly trying to save the world. Its unusual premise helped it stand apart from typical procedurals.

Better Off Ted
Better Off Ted only lasted two seasons, but its corporate satire found a devoted audience. Years later, fans are still wishing Veridian Dynamics had stayed in business a little longer.

Clone High
One viewer was particularly annoyed that Clone High’s original run ended on a cliffhanger. Its ridiculous teenage versions of historical figures made the cancellation especially difficult for fans to forget.

Jericho
Jericho’s post-apocalyptic mystery inspired such a passionate response to its cancellation that fans famously sent CBS thousands of pounds of nuts. The campaign actually helped earn the show a shortened second season.

Danny Phantom
One Reddit user wanted another round of Danny Phantom. The Nickelodeon series followed a teenager balancing everyday high school problems with his secret life as a ghost-powered superhero.

Warehouse 13
Warehouse 13 turned historical artifacts into dangerous supernatural objects that needed to be tracked down and stored away. Its combination of sci-fi, comedy, and adventure remains difficult to replace.

Rome
One viewer called HBO’s Rome a “masterpiece” and blamed its enormous cost for its short run. The ambitious historical drama covered years of Roman political upheaval in just two seasons.

Dead Like Me
Dead Like Me found dark comedy in the life of a young woman who becomes a grim reaper after her sudden death. Its unusual premise lasted two seasons before Showtime cancelled it.

Hannibal
Hannibal earned critical acclaim and a devoted following during its three seasons on NBC. Its cancellation left fans wanting more of the complicated relationship between Will Graham and Hannibal Lecter.

Pushing Daisies
Pushing Daisies mixed romance, murder mysteries, and a pie maker who could bring dead people back to life. Its colorful world disappeared after only two seasons, and fans clearly have not forgotten it.
