{TV} Ended too soon: TV series that should NOT have ended/been cancelled so early :-(
TV programmes that should NOT have ended/been cancelled so soon . . .
Some of these TV series were perfect as they were, a few needed improvements/changes, but all were either a success already or were well on the road to being a hit . . .
Whether a series was ended via the producers' decision, or by the choice of the actor/s, or for some other reason, it was a sad loss. A case - for the viewers at least! - of the wrong judgement, or just a regrettable course of action.
The programmes were ended too soon, when they could easily have carried on to even greater things!
