The Orville hasn't been canceled, yet. S04 will enter production this year.
Thank you. It's been sitting lonely in my Jellyfin for a long time waiting to hear this.
Mind hunter, surprised i didn't see it mentioned
Especially since it wasn't a real cancellation, just "on indefinite hiatus" followed by "never coming back" almost five years later. The second season ending very much set up at least another season.

Yeah, so good! This was Netflix’s True Detective and they just…dropped it?
Inside Job
Pushing daisies was a hard pill to swallow. Such a great quirky show.
And, from that same era, Dead Like Me.
It sucks that it was only two seasons, but it did have a clean ending. No cliffhangers, or anything begging to be finished. I was happy with that.
Both Brian Fuller shows
freaks and geeks. unbelievably stacked cast but the network never gave it a dedicated time so no one knew when they could watch it. then it got cancelled before they aired half the episodes citing poor viewership
Better off ted.
Avenue 5.
Alien Nation.
My Name is Earl.
Better off ted.
Show was brilliant
I'd watch a spinoff of just those two scientists. They had such good chemistry together.
The OA
Darkwing Duck, it ends with the first episode of a two parter...
Oof
Sort of counts, but KOTH.
Fox took it off the air FOUR episodes from the finale to "make room for The Cleveland Show" of all things, the worst offering from those Family Guy clones imho.
Luckily, Adult Swim was kind enough not only to pick up KOTH, but to air those last missing episodes as well, and I have it all torrented by now of course and it was easy to find, but still, fuck Fox for that one (amongst other things, but I want to punch the specific exec that decided to do that right in the eye just one good time.)
Amazon: The Rings of Power.
I thought it still going. I think people were ok it being cancelled though.
- Utopia (UK)
- The expense
The expense
A multi-season, high-tense drama series where Gary attempts to expense his lunch through SAP.
I haven't watched the show, apparently they purposely end it because the new books is a time jump
There's a huge time jump yeah, but I don't that was the primary reason they didn't want to continue. It got cancelled after season 3, then resuced by Amazon (Bezos personally loved the show) but then they didn't renew for season 7 as I don't think they wanted to commit financially.
The fact the story in the latter seasons started angling towards the whole underclass starting a massive uprising probably rustled his oligarch jimmies a bit :>

Big brain move here. They're going to wait 20 years so the actors age appropriately and they can save a ton on makeup costs before they start filming the next season :>

Tuca and Bertie. Netflix cancelled it, then HBO made another season. But just before releasing it HBO cancelled it for a tax break. It's heartbreaking to think of the writers and animators pouring their lives into it just for nobody to ever see it.

Last Man on Earth
- 1899
- Raised by Wolves
- The Lazarus Project
and maybe The Expanse but as others pointed out due to the timeskip I expect them to continue it at some point.
I am so pissed about 1899.
Raised by Wolves was so freaking cool
Lazor Wulf. Two seasons, with a forced change in animation studios between seasons, didn't give the show enough opportunity to grow.
Tuca & Bertie and Firefly as well. Maybe Lower Decks too
Grimgar
The character art, design, and development still phenomenal compared to most even 10yr later.
Stargate Atlantis and universe, Star Trek enterprise, Les moonves destroyed the last good series. , nutrek just suck balls. The animated series attempts to cure that though, the live actions are so bad, STD, Picard and snw is not as good as it looks.
Atlantis and universe was under MGM so they had significant financial problems , been plaguing them for years, also the low viewership retired the whole franchise. The show runners allegedly said it's not possible for another series, due to "societal climate". There was going to be some serious reveals in season 3 for sgu.
2 shows Disney forced cancellation, gifted and AOS

If streaming shows are fair game, Final Space. So much passion poured into such an excellent production and Netflix axed it after 3 seasons.
