I really hate when the writers screw up a show by overdoing it with too many characters, confusing plots, and the characters aren't really developed enough to actually know them well.

Or when your show just ends without warning when you really wanted a lot more story.

Share shows that you have experienced this with and what was wrong with it.

I was watching the remake of V on ABC and I actually liked it and all of a sudden, they pulled out the show without any warnings. Those F*ing
as**les!

Hmm, i've had this problem with a lot of shoes. If it's a long running show, is it just me, or do they introduce a MASSIVE plot for a new character, have them in two or three episodes, story dies, they're gone, never to return, or even more annoying - return like 3 seasons later?

Ever watch Lost? This is EXACTLY what happened to Lost. And then, after opening too many story arcs for them to handle, they put out the most terrible series finale ever!

I think that's producers way of trying to make more money - they've ran out of the storyline with the kids being small, so BOOM "All grown up"

Personally think rugrats should have stayed babies, they were much more enjoyable then.

You should really check your posts Shona. I take it that it should be shows.

OK, back on topic. This usually happens to me when a show goes on too long. For example: How I Met Your Mother and Big Bang Theory. I still watch both shows but they are slowly getting worse. HIMYM is just getting old. It just doesn't seem as funny anymore when I watch it. Big Bang Theory is still funny but I HATE Amy. When she first came on I thought that she would be a good addition to the show, but they made her too weird. The whole BFF's with Penny thing is just odd.
Or when your show just ends without warning when you really wanted a lot more story.

Happens. Not really the writers fault usually. Show usually gets cancelled or something.

Shows that I liked but got cancelled: The Cape, Firefly

How about that show with Charly Sheen?! They totally ruined it by replacing him for that lousy actor Kutcher? The man has a drinking problem... really? Yeah, so what... so does half of the celebrities! The other half (minus Pitt and Jolie) has a drug addiction... meh... =/

I agree, I liked Terra Nova as well. But my all time favourite show that got cancelled way too early was Farscape. Sci-Fi network had to choose between Farscape and Stargate-SG1, so they cancelled Farscape and took the two main acotrs and put them on Stargate. What a rip-off!

I agree with you, I liked Terra Nova. The worst example of a show getting cancelled prematurely was Farscape. Farscape was an awesome show, but SCi-Fi network had to choose between it and Stargate SG1. So they cancelled Farscape and took the two main actors and put them on Stargate! What a rip-off!

Never liked Terra Nova because it was so cliche. You now what I didn't like? Fox taking Arrested Development off the air. It was SUCH a funny show but people couldn't understand what the characters were talking about.

Totally, I was gonna mention it the second I saw this topic, but you guys beat me to it, theres a reason they kicked Sheen out of two and a half men though,

Wiki Link

To summarize it, he asked for 2 million bucks an episode (guiness book of world record for highest paid actor), he dirty talked the show, and in hes into drugs.

Hes like my favorite actor, its SUCH a shame how he ended up...
