I forgot Drive! That was a good show for what we go. If Fox actually advertised it and gave it longer than 4 episodes, it may have fared better. Having read what was planned for later episodes, I am really pissed off about it getting axed. They should have let it run for the planned 12 or so episodes, we may have got these answers- http://tvseriesfinale.com/tv-show/drive-what-wouldve-happened-on-the-cancelled-series/

I was reading Minnear's blog at the time and he laid out some stuff there too.

Harsh Realm was interesting but it was clear what wasn't working on it. I think it would have worked better as a self-contained series.I haven't rewatched it since I first got the DVD years ago though.

Me neither - I remember I really enjoyed it, but that's about it. Where was it going wrong.

It annoys me that we actually would have got a full self-contained story of 12 episodes if Fox had just bloody waited. By all accounts, the show was doomed from the start.

Did anyone see 'The Good Guys' on Sky1 late Saturday night? From 2 years ago and may have only lasted 1 season. Was surprisingly good. A comedy cop thriller with Bradley Whitford and Colin Hanks. Excellent rock sountrack as well.

It seems Fox cancelled it really quickly which judging by its first episode was a massive shame.
