Mrs. Sensei mentioned that it seems like her favorite shows are short-lived, lasting only one season. That got me to thinking about some of my favorites that didn't make it to season 2.

First one is a no-brainer--Firefly. Good writing, interesting premise, strong cast. Gone far too prematurely.

Second goes back to 1983--Bay City Blues, an NBC show that followed a minor league baseball team. It was a Hill Street Blues/St. Elsewhere styled show that bit the big one too quickly I think.

not sure how long it lasted but it wasn't long enough. I really enjoyed Reaper for the limited time it was on.

REAPER was just 2 seasons (viewable on Netflix streaming and Hulu). I think Ray Wise made the show, but one cannot discount the considerableness of Missy Peregrym.
