4. Bionic Woman (2007)

This show could have been SO much better. Michelle Ryan should have just kept her accent throughout the show. The writer's strike, plus musical showrunners didn't help to let the show with a unified vision...

33. Jonny Zero (2005)

I had seen some of the ads on the TV for this show. So I took a chance and was pleasantly surprised - it was action packed, had a decent story.

6.6

8.2

34. Journeyman (2007)

An interesting concept that sadly was crippled by the writer's strike. The concept I think needed a little more time to play out - much like LOST, if you came in late to the show - you were at a loss.

DJ Misfit's rating:

7.3

7.8

35. jPod (2008)

Follows a young man named Ethan Jarlewski, and a group of misfit video game programmers, exiled to a basement office, by a Y2K problem which forced anyone whose last names begins with "J" there. It also follows Ethans unusual life outside of the workplace.

Description

This is just a simple list of short-lived TV shows, I either wanted to watch or watched and they ended up getting cancelled. Some were quite exceptional, others were guilty pleasures at best.

I made the list more for keeping track of old shows that didn't have DVD releases.
