Sci-fi Brilliant but Canceled or little known gems

5 seasons of the tribe were put on you tube legally by the rights holder.

52 episodes per season, and now in German.

 

I know Bruce Greenwood was in a show that was kind of popular but I forget the name were a guy wakes up and his wife and family act like they don't know who he is and his life has been 'erased" and he goes on the run.

Also a show I liked was "Dead at 21" with Jack Nosworthy I think he was called. About a young guy who will die when he turns 21 because of some tech inside of him. It was on MTV so it was going for the hip and cool angle but to me that is part of it's charm.

That was Nowhere Man.

 

Shades of The Prisoner, but I saw Nowhere Man first.

 

Stargate: Universe

 

I'm gonna plug the following:
* Nickelodeon's Space Cases, created by Peter David and Bill Mumy, which featured a visual gag crossover with Babylon 5

* The Secret World of Alex Mack, created by Thomas W. Lynch and Ken Lipman

* Eerie, Indiana, created by Jose Rivera and Karl Schaefer (which I actually saw in syndication on FOX)

Okay, you have to check this out - it's a real gem in my opinion:

I'm fortunate to have the entire season of Nowhere Man on DVD. Great series.

 

Johnny Quest - a show with
action
Action!
ACTION!!

 

I remember watching this as a kid, I'm a big Henson fan so that was a draw for me. The Jim Henson Co. YouTube page has some clips up from it.

I remember that I watched this, but nothing more than that.

I enjoyed this one a lot, but I'm an atheist, and at the time I didn't like anything religious in my storytelling, so I was disappointed in the explanation being religious. I've been more open to that kind of stuff now thanks to shows like Supernatural and Dominion, so it doesn't bother me now.

I used to watch these three when I was a kid.

 

Dark Matter.

Ended on a cliffhanger too. Bastards!

 

Rock and Rule

Features the singing voice of Deborah Harry of Blondie

 

Started watching Journeyman this morning, past half way through, quite good.

 

Nowhere Man, mid-90s UPN.

I thought the plot was silly over how some organization could erase a man like that...then I saw the ending and it all made sense.

 

Yeah, those last two or three episodes exploded the plot with big ramifications. It's a damn shame that show didn't get a second season. At least it had a long first season.

 

I enjoyed Nowhere Man when it was on, but there were some things about it that were a little silly. Like, if they can just effortlessly assassinate everyone he ever talks to, why are they having so much trouble catching him with those damn negatives?

 

Earth 2 still hurts.
Outcasts
Survivors (2008-2010)
Primeval
Primeval New World
Terra Nova
Sanctuary (even though the really messed up the last season)

 

Spoiler

IIRC,the whole thing was just a test to see if the fake memory implants worked. They weren't trying to really catch him, they were trying to see how much of what was happening he wholly believed.

 

I wanted to like Otherworld

 

I enjoyed "Almost Human", starring Karl Urban.
