Freaks and Geeks (1999)
Ended: Too soon
This series had so much potential, it's one of the few high school shows that I could relate to on some level. Not to mention it had an absolutely amazing cast and excellent writers. Although it was cancelled after only one season the show has generated a loyal cult following.

Ended: Not soon enough (Since it's still going!)
Now generally speaking I am a fan of this show, especially the earlier seasons. It's genuinely funny for the most part but it has dragged on for far too long. I mean there's only so many stories a show can use before it becomes tired and the quality of it's episodes diminishes. It's time to stop!

My So-Called Life (1994)
Ended: Too Soon
Although it was over dramatic at times this show was filled with great monologues, and I'm sure almost every teenager feels that every little bad thing in their life is the end of the world. My So-Called Life made it okay to think that. The show ended at such a horrible moment, because the producers believed it would be back for a second season. This one definitely died too soon!

The O.C. (2003)
Ended: Not Soon Enough
I'll be the first to admit that I really loved this show while it was on. Yes, it was unbelievably dramatic, but that's where it's appeal came from. I was just really not a fan of the fourth season, it mostly just annoyed the hell out of me. I'm sure there's a lot of people who will disagree, but oh well.

Veronica Mars (2004)
Ended: Too Soon
Veronica Mars was a witty, fun, and interesting show that really could have continued for at least one more season. I'll admit I didn't like the third season as much as the first two, but I'd really love to see the show taken in a new direction, like it was supposed to be. I blame the cancellation entirely on Piz, because oh how I hate him. Let's hope the whole movie thing will work out eventually!

King of the Hill (1997)
Ended: Not Soon Enough
Although it could be said that King Of The Hill was never that great a show to start with I would say that the first few season were watchable. After that it just got tired and I truthfully haven't seen most of the last seasons because I completely lost interest. Thankfully it's finally over.

Undeclared (2001)
Ended: Too Soon
Undeclared wasn't as good as Freaks and Geeks but it was still an amazing show! It's a shame that such a funny show didn't get a great chance. Adding yet another item to my list of favourite shows that only ran one season.

The Drew Carey Show (1995)
Ended: Not Soon Enough
I don't really have anything too bad to say about this show because most of the time I enjoyed it. I think it just wasn't as funny near the end, I would've been happy with less seasons.

Clone High was such a hilarious show, and it's actually pretty fitting that the one season long series ended on such a cliffhanger. Despite that being said I've always wanted to see more!

Don't get me wrong, I really do love Scrubs, the first few seasons were amazing. The thing is, it just got steadily worse as seasons progressed, I'd still prefer watching it over a lot of other shows though. Now I hear that the ninth season will be happening and that J.D. and Elliot will only be back for six episodes? Yeah, it's time to stop.

The Unusuals (2009)
Ended: Too Soon
I really liked the direction this show was going in. It wasn't your typical cop drama, I mean there was drama but the humour kept it interesting. I think lack of advertising and promotion is what caused it's demise, I'm still hoping that somehow it'll come back.

It looked like Dollhouse might make it with the cult following it's already generated. Unfortunately it seemed like the show was almost destined to be canceled, after the rest of the second season airs there will be no more Dollhouse. It's a shame with good characters and a really interesting premise I think it could have lasted longer.

Two and a Half Men (2003)
Ended: Not Soon Enough (it's still around)
Recommended by: el_raulo
In my opinion this show was only moderately funny to start with and now, during the 7th season its just downright boring. Honestly, not much has changed for this show, the characters still have no real depth and quite frankly the repetitive story lines and jokes have gotten old.

A list of show that I feel were either cancelled too soon or were dragged out for too long. In no particular order.
