godDAMMIT i LIKED that show. i need to catch up on episodes that made it on air before this ridiculousness but argh this is frustrating. it's because it actually has intelligence behind it. An actual story, character development, it was just a damn interesting show. :/
I KNOW! It's fucking awful! This was literally one of my favourite shows on television, and it's ending and without even a proper series finale. When I see the last episode, I know I'm gonna bawl my eyes out.
You definitely need to catch up on episodes. This season is amazing and terrifying and wonderful!
I'm sorry about your show. I don't have cable/satellite so I have to be selective with the shows I watch and whatnot, so I never watched it. But, the list that you mentioned of shows getting cancelled, I LOOOOOOVVED Pushing Daisies and Arrested Development and was going to watch Firefly and Dollhouse (and probably still will at some point). My sisters also watched Dead Like Me and Veronica Mars.
My biggest deal with Pushing Daisies was that it never got a full season. During its first season there was the writer's strike and then they cancelled it in the middle of it's second season. My mad face was permanently fixed in mad for the rest of that show season.
I really don't understand why new, fresh, clever, interesting, etc. shows don't seem to make it, even though, from what I've seen/heard, they do end up having a fairly large fanbase. No, they may not be the Jersey Shore sized ones but at least we can think, but there ARE fan bases there

Thanks for the commiseration, bb! I know this is nature of the beast that is competitive, capitalist television, but it still pains me deeply that so many good shows don't get the run they really should.

It's so fucking sad. This show's amazing to a ridiculous degree, and I know I'm gonna be mourning its end for years to come.
