    Aww man Eureka is awesome. I like it for light-hearted watching which throws caution to the wind and mashes up science with messed up logic!

    I hope they don't cut Warehouse 13 next... :worried:

    I entered robot wars... didn't make it as far as the televised bit though...

    Robot Wars/Techno Games though i think with both of those they fell out of fashion a bit... which is a shame...

    Firefly [serenity tied up some loose ends but it's not the same...], similarly Dollhouse

    Stargate Universe [it was slow to start... but i liked it... ]

    That seems to be SyFy's thing atm... usually in the formula: Mess with the schedule... whine no-one watches [because they keep messing with the schedule]... bin series... they seem to be doing it a lot.

    Aw crap, I thought you meant after season 4. I did not know season 6 had been scrapped. Well that sucks.

    Apart from ones already mentioned Kindred springs to mind - cancelled after 8 episodes in 1996. It was based on White Wolf's World of Darkness (think Vampire the Masquerade: The Soap Opera).

    Stargate - Although o'Neill should have been kept on for a bigger role.

    :wallbash:What is wrong with you people? How are you not permanently outraged at being deprived an ending to Dungeons & Dragons ?

    Heroes was pretty good but the plot was pretty thin by the end............... although they should have finished it a bit better.

    Reaper on C4 Sunday afternoon ..... was funny
    Invasion got pulled after one series.

    :waah: Firefly every time. Got the boxed set just a few weeks ago and was hooked. Even my wife liked it and she is not a massive sc-fi fan. The film did do it justice though. Fox obviously had no vision...

    Aww, damnit! :duh: I guess they'll axe Warehouse 13 next, then. Apparently we can't have good series anymore. But for some reason that piece of garbage that is Alphas still live on...


    My list is now:

    Firefly (of course)
    Eureka
    Heroes
    Breaking in (It was cheesy but nice entertainment)
    Chaos (Same as above)


    edit: On the upside: Big bang theory and Fringe start up again this week!
