    The Expanse. I’m happy it was completed and not cancelled but it felt rushed. Currently reading the books, on book 3/9, really good.

      Enjoy the read one of my favorite book series ever.

      I don’t think we’ve seen the last of the expanse yet. I think we might see a bit more at some point.

        Yeah I really hope we get to see Laconia at its prime, some day.

        I know it isn’t the same thing but there is an Expanse game coming out called The Expanse: Osiris Reborn. So at the very least we may get a big action rpg out of it.

        That said, I would love to see the show taken through all of the main series books instead of where they ended it in the show.

    “… And a movie.”

    Explanation

    When someone in the show “Community” asks what the perfect length for a TV show is, Ahbed runs across the background and shouts “six seasons and a movie!”.

    Community ran for six seasons

    …so far.

    Andor could have probably done with one more season to really flesh out Cassian accepting his rebel place. (Probably did not need the intended 5 seasons)

    Someone who watched Better Call Saul before Breaking Bad told me that they thought Breaking Bad would’ve been better if it started with Gretchen, Eliot, and Walt starting Gray Matter together — followed them through the relationship breakdown due to Walt’s insecurity and then Walt meeting Skyler before a Time Skip taking us to where season 1 picked up.

    I’m afraid I’ve got to go old school. If you’re looking for something that was completed but could have gone longer I say Quantum Leap. Don’t get me wrong the finale was great and I loved that Sam decided to keep leaping to help those in need, but man I could use more.

      I liked the deuce, as I thought it had a similar style of storytelling.

      Treme I liked as well, but it’s something else - not the same style as the other 2.

    The O.A.

    I really feel like they could have ran with the ending (even though I didn’t like it) and went even crazier with the story.

    Although I feel season 5 (the last season) of Babylon 5 was a trainwreck, I would have liked to have seen something that was fully funded and supported by the network. Instead we got Crusade and The Legend of the Rangers, and then the TV movies.

    Weep for Warners, Na’toth. Weep for us all.

    Firefly!

    I don’t think I’ll ever be able to shift the feeling that we were robbed of more.

    Edit - Realised I misread the title, was indeed cancelled not completed.

    The Practice should have been longer. While Boston Legal was a fun spinoff, the hard hitting legal drama should have kept going as well.
