I was watching "Boston Legal" earlier and REALLY miss that show.

I also miss the OLD "General Hospital" Luke and Laura era. (I'm REALLY showing my age now.) All that crazy 'Ice Princess' stuff was fastastic and let's NOT forget the dreeeeamy Dr. Noah Drake.

What can I do next?

Firefly -- possibly the best sci-fi show out there... only 14 episodes.... sigh.
Pushing Daisies
Dead Like Me
Dollhouse
The Muppet Show
Babylon 5 (though the last season was kinda' lame)
Lost

Wow -- do you detect a theme here? I do like straight drama too -- it doesn't all have to be sci-fi -- it's just that those are the ones that the really good ones tend to get cancelled because they're less mainstream and thus appeal to a smaller audience and don't make as much $$$. sigh.

Firefly! It was only on for one season, but my husband and I loved it. It shouldn't have gotten canceled so quickly. :-(

My husband and I just finished Angel on DVD for the second time. I just LOVE that show!!! They should have never stopped making it.

And even though it's still on, I know I'm going to miss Bones like crazy when it's done.

Hmmmm.....maybe it's a David Boreanez thing ;o) lol

answers from Austin on

Definitly Airwolf is my all time fave show...does not include that awful 'last' fourth season with the bad editing & new cast. It WAS THE best show not to mention the best tv show theme of all time. NCIS has the second best tv theme IMO. ;) But I can watch Airwolf's first 3 seasons ALL day!

Updated

I've already answered but I did think of a couple more...Pushing Daisies & also Moonlight...the vampire show on CBS...totally awesome. Also a short 'lived' series called Smith was really good & Cane was pretty good. I'm pretty picky. I definitly know that Supernatual will be SORELY missed once it ends. Not sure if Dexter is still on but we liked that show too. But all in all, my faves, Airwolf & Moonlight probably have to be, so far, top of the list. Supernatural will follow once it ends. The original Beauty & the Beast w/Linda Hamilton was awesome but a bit on the monotonous side but it was very clever and creative version of the story. Too bad the 'new' version on the CW couldn't have been an extension of the original series like this being Catherine & Vincent's son, Jacob, from the original series...as a continuation, rather than trying to 'revisit & revamp' original characters as if they never existed. I've not watched this new version b/c I feel it's a slap in the face to the original IMO. I also liked Werewolf and The Phoenix, two other short-lived series.

I was really enjoying 'Samantha Who?' I love the "chick shows" that have romance and humor or romance, careers and drama.
Also, would love to see some new Cosby Show, King of Queens and Everybody Loves Raymond and Scrubs episodes. I wish they'd do a mini-series type update.
**Theresa N. I was a fan of that show. I'd love one more GOOD season where things actually made better sense. I'm still too upset with the way it ended to write out the show's name. They're all dead to me! ( Lol ;) )
