If you could resolve an old 'quest'-oriented show...

[Hober Mallow]

I would like to have seen Peter David and Bill Mumy finish their Nickelodeon SF series Space Cases.

The Canadian children's fantasy series the Odyssey ended on a cliffhanger that, according to one of the writers, essentially destroyed the premise of the series, helping to lead to a cancelation. It was a good show, heavily serialized back before Babylon 5 was pushing serialized storytelling. In retrospect, the show reminds me a lot of Lost with a kid cast.

Not an adventure show, but I always hoped that Murder, She Wrote would end with the police realizing that everywhere Jessica Fletcher goes, someone dies and arresting her for murder.

The Pretender - they did tv movies after the series finished but answered next to nothing and put up even more questions.

Robotech

 

[Candlelight]

Crusade.

I wanna see that cure found, dammit!!

 

[Aeon]

Dark Skies. It had a five year plan and I remember I liked it a lot more than The X-Files.

 

[Mojochi]

Deadwood!

The Time Tunnel and Quantum Leap

Sam leaps into the body of Tony Newman.

"Oh Boy"

I was thinking Johnathan Archer.

How about Earth 2?

 

[Bloodwhiner]

Animated - Tom catches and eats Jerry

Live Action - Zelda finally goes out with Dobie Gillis.

(Runner up - The Jupiter Two finds the earth and the Robinson family make it home)

(I think I just dated myself again)

Live Action - Zelda finally goes out with Dobie Gillis.

Zelda married Dobie in The Return Of Dobie Gillis TV movie back in 1978.

I either missed that TV Classic or have banished from my memory (along with Archie bunkers Place, Joanie Loves Chachi and AfterMASH)

Re: Sliders

Slider's original premise would have been nice to see resolved. Pity it denigrated into a not so good show.

I always wondered what happened. I just checked wikipedia and what the? season 5 didn't even have the same cast!?!

Season 5

With Jerry and Charlie O'Connell stricken from the cast list, the writers decided to simply lose Colin in the vortex, and fuse Quinn with his counterpart on the new world, who is the only duplicate to not look anything like Quinn

Almost as bad as replacing Bo & Luke on
"The Dukes of Hazzard" .

in the spring of 1982, before filming of the fifth season, series stars John Schneider and Tom Wopat walked off the set in a contract dispute over their salaries and merchandising royalties. Two lookalike replacements were subsequently hired.

Wikipedia


and then the SLIDERS season finale:

The series concludes on a world where the sliders are the subjects of a fanatical religion called Slidology, founded by a man with psychic powers who has mentally followed them on their interdimensional adventures.

Oh My God! How awful of an ending to the series!

Yeah, my annoyance at the shit Sliders became after starting out so strong, would fill ten books.

Mostly with colorful metaphors.

Re: Sliders

Hmm, S:AAB, of course. There was a kid's show called Ark II that really never resolved. I'd have liked to have seen that. Most animation-eh, who cares? The list of more recent tv shows is long, with Firefly, Jericho and Journeyman leading the pack.

 

[OmahaStar]

I'd love to have seen a proper conclusion to the series Otherworld. Not that anyone else remembers it.

 

[sbk1234]

I remember Otherworld. I thought it was pretty fun. So I guess there's two of us.

I'd like to see Lost In Space resolved. I've read a few fan fictions where they get rescued by one of the Star Trek crews...

 

[caisson2delta]

The Hulk TV series
S:AAB
Firefly

I would've let wiley coyote finally catch and eat the roadrunner.

 

[Othello]

Miracles and Veritas: The Quest- both shows that ABC canceled that I really enjoyed.
