Thought this was an interesting question and I’m sure there’s lots of suggestions out there.

1899
I’m still heartbroken Netflix cancelled it because it had the unfortunate timing of airing at the same time as Wednesday. The directors’ previous series, “Dark”, was a proper mindfuck.
Dark was amazing. I didn’t bother with 1899 after I heard that it was cancelled.
I think I’m developing a fear of commitment with shows these days, with so many cancelations
Firefly
At least we got serenity to kinda tie up lose ends
Hi Randall Munroe!
My Name is Earl
Final Space.
Olan had one season left before the company buried the show as a tax write off
Reading this made me look it up. Final Space was more than a one season show?? Guess I have some catching up to do.
If you missed it, Olan got a deal to put out a hardback graphic novel tying up the show, called Final Space Ends. Upside: a real ending. Downside: not a show, not available digitally(one of Warner’s conditions), and it’s $125. Tentatively scheduled to ship late next year.
So realistically it doesn’t have an ending, because there is a zero percent chance I will ever pay $125 for it…
Expanse, of course
People have already beaten me to Firefly over and over again so I’ll add one likely to have been forgotten:
Carnivale.
Ended on an unbelievable cliffhanger, left SO MUCH unanswered, could’ve run for another decade. I’m re-mad that this show got canceled now.

Firefly
The Expanse. The show had a satisfying ending but the books went a bit further into the future and I’d like to see more in the shows.
Fringe
Adventure Time. It really needed one more season to fully flesh out the storylines they set up. Cartoon Network really screwed them (and other shows like SU) over
Game of thrones, but it’s the new series 7 and it rewrites original 7 and 8 and they don’t exist anymore.
Dead Like Me
Unironically Mindhunter. I’m so mad it’s been canceled. Such a great show.
