And the Next Cancelled Show is...

I like Bob's Burgers quite a bit. Some seasons are better than others, but overall it's a pretty decent adult animation show. The jokes are mostly contained to character interactions instead of leaning on things like pop culture references and current events. Winking at the audience is pretty rare.

I'm not totally against those things, but I like there being an animated show that breaks from that model.
 
Amazon has cancelled Almost Paradise. That being said, this is not the first time (first time was WGN America), it has been cancelled and Dean Devlin hopes it will be saved/revived elsewhere. Evidently, the cancellation was part of what went down when Amazon ended their Freevee service.

Scorpion ended on an annoying cliffhanger -
everyone was mad at each other and had just reunited after months of being split up
and Terra Nova resolved all end of season issues in a comic book.
 
It did. I just kind of wish they didn't get kicked so deeply in the junk every week. :lol:
Every episode of the first half of season one was life or death, but it also spent too much time on Young and Telford and Young's wife. I think it stumbled out of the gate, culminating in the odd choice of Young deserting Rush. It had turned around after that and into season two, but by then, the ship had sailed.

It also suffered because, at the time, fans were stung that Atlantis was cancelled and Universe came in in their spot. I don't have concrete evidence of this, but I remember reading that people were staying away from Universe over that. Atlantis was the weakest, especially in its later seasons when they pulled a Voyager and got communication to back home.

SGU did seem to get its shit together in the second half of season 2, helped by the fact they seemed to figure out by then which characters were working and focused more attention on them. But by then the cancellation decision had already been made, so too little, too late.

"Later seasons?" Atlantis reestablished contact with Earth in the first season's finale, and thus were in regular contact from season 2 onwards. Season 1 is the only season where they were really cut off.

To be more succinct, lets say seasons four and five. They weren't all bad episodes, but I feel the quality dropped.

It's been ten years, so I am gagging for a bit of strange, but the producers let rip what they had planned for season 6 of Atlantis recently on Gateworld, and my mouth was watering...

Yes, those two seasons did have more Earth centered episodes than the previous ones, but that was due to SG-1 had ended, therefore Atlantis needed to do more Earth episodes in order to justify the expense of keeping the SGC sets standing.
