    really enjoyed The Unit. Mamet was one of the creators, and he wrote and directed many of the episodes. his wife, rebecca pidgeon, occasionally guest starred.

    All the ones in bold... I actually saw the pilots when they first aired...

    Sadly I am good at picking shows that will fail the networks and get canceled.

    Only viewed the first season of The Unit though... Scott Foley started to get on my nerves.

    I was kinda "meh" towards that show. Carly Pope wasn't bad and Leslie Bibb was a looker even back then.

    Agree on Action and Kitchen Confidential
    I'll second Playmakers-mentioned earlier in the thread
    Andy Richter controls the universe
    Get Real-Early Ann Hathaway work
    Aliens in America
    The Game
    What about Brian
    Six Degrees- Had Zoe Saldana and Bridget Moynahan
    Titus
    Undeclared
    Cedric the entertainer show
    Keen Eddie
    Grounded for life
    The Riches
    ESPN Hollywood

    We could just sift through a list of all the cancelled Fox shows and find stuff. Is there another network that cancels shows faster than Fox? I doubt it.

    I remember watching them even though I was too young to understand much.

    Just watched the first three episodes of Firefly based on the hype in this thread. The show should have never lasted past the pilot.

    Agree... Harsh and soooo wrong!

    thanks for posting that... I think it's been just long enough since the series aired to watch it again.

    Though I am still irritated that we didn't get a good conclusion to the final season!!

    WTF? B:TAS and the DCAU it created essentially ran for 14 years, from 1992-2006, including The New Batman Aventures, The Batman/Superman Adventures, Batman Beyond, and Justice League. It had a very good and long run.

    How you could miss the entire point of the thread this far in is beyond me...

    I guess. It just seemed super cheesy to me. A constant annoyance was how the captain was described as enigmatic, though his motives were rather transparent from the start. His moral development comes off as contrived, like when he discovers that he heisted much needed medical supplies from a troubled town; you would think he would have faced a situation like that before ("Gee! I never ask about what I'm stealing at the behest of these shady characters, and it turns out that I might actually be hurting innocent people!")

    Seriously, Better Off Ted is criminally underrated. Every single character is ridiculously strong. If you haven't seen it, go watch it nowwwwww.
