If you enjoyed Flashpoint (CBS), it will continue season 4 on ION http://tvseriesfinale.com/?p=20725

Hopefully with all these cancelled shows they will make some new ones.
 
Breaking Bad was technically renewed in 2011 for final 16 episodes in 2012/2013 season. It's not cancelled, it's just no longer featured in studios autumn 2012 fiscal roster.

Which basically, still makes the above list a bit useless as it lists everything from cancellations, through scheduled wrap ups to series that are technically still in the middle of network transfer negotiations (The River for example).
 
What are we classifying as cancelled?

My understanding with regards wasn't that it was cancelled, more that the producers/Hugh didn't want to continue to produce it.

Was thinking you meant cancelled as in channels refused to broadcast...

I'm a little disappointed about Awake, I was unsure about it at first but i'm quite enjoying it now!

Most of the shows i like on that list are either ending, or have ended. Breaking Bad, Chuck, Eureka, House..
 
yeah looked at list 1st thing I saw breaking bad canceled.... no way

best show on the list !

secret circle gone ? woulda thought that was easily gonna be renewed simply cos the girls are hwat
 
Only watched Alcatraz on that list. Thought it was alright imo. Think I need some recommendations for new TV series to watch now.
 
issue with alcatraz while it showed some hope it left it all too late, it was the same with terra nova... no ones got time for mystery and suspense they just wanna see something a bit new and interesting.

Alcatraz was just time travel with some prisoners chucked in.... and terra nova was just a family living in the past in a giant case surrounded by dinosaurs, were they just trying to get canceled from episode 1 !

Secret circle while similar and been done, its nice too see some nice totty and there witches and demons chucked in not surprised thats been canned though but it was a lot better then most similar shows.

That BSG chrome series is now set to go as a one off movie....

Falling skies is back this summer and walking dead season 2 this fall at least, hopefully green arrow series will take over for my smallville fix.

The days of a tv series with any form of CGI for more then 5 seconds looks to have been canned straight into the recession tube in vacant space to which they cannot render
 
The only one on the list that I watched was House, and I knew that it was coming to an end. It will be a shame to see it go but it had a good 8 year run.
 
I've really enjoyed Awake, shame it hasn't been picked up, not decided yet if I like Touch but will keep with it for the time being. Gave up on The Firm, The Finder after a few episodes.

Recently got into Breaking Bad so I've got a few seasons to tide me over for now.
 
Disappointed that Awake isn't being renewed, I really like it.

No surprise to see Breaking In on there, it was originally cancelled after the first season but was then miraculously revived, so I didn't see it staying past season 2. I still kind of like it though.

CHAOS is another that I keep meaning to catch up on eventually, it's not really that great but it's more than watchable.

Ringer wasn't particularly great, interesting concept but I lost interest. Might catch up one day, but I get the impression I'm not missing much.

Flashpoint is rather good, high production value for a Canadian show so I'm glad to see that returning. Endgame is another good one from Canada, unfortunately it only got one season. Fans of House would probably enjoy it.
 

Oh dear. That said, I used to be a massive CSI fan while I was at uni (the shelf of DVDs is evidence enough!) but I haven't watched it in a few years now. Miami became more about shooting people than investigating any actual crime, and NY - which started off great for a few seasons - went completely off the rails in season 3 or 4. Hell, one episode was about a guy who'd built a time machine. They ruined the intro music too.

Vegas is probably still pretty decent but I haven't seen any episodes since Grissom left. I'll catch up one day...god knows when.
