    Tenspeed & Brownshoe. Jeff Goldblum and Ben Vereen as quirky private eyes.

    Trophy Wife. I'm never going to be able to forgive ABC for its horrible name, and its equally poor scheduling. Had they schedule it alongside Modern Family/ The Middle, it would have just started Season 3. Instead, they stuck it on Tuesdays after Agents of SHIELD, which wasn't a compatible lead in. At least it introduced breakout star Albert Tsai.

    Pushing Daisies. I absolutely loved this short-lived show.

    Mockingbird Lane. Munsters remake with loads of potential.

    The name was good, as was the show, but they've also only got so much time to show stuff, and the ratings weren't good. Me, I would have kept it around; what ABC should have done a long time ago is just make Tuesday another night of sitcoms, and ship Agents of SHIELD off to friday...or put it on before Castle.

    Agents of SHIELD isn't a good lead-in for anything, it's killed basically everything that's come on after it. Even another spy show.

    I really liked Southland, which was cancelled for The Jay Leno Show; a prime time talk show in which the host clearly didn't care at all. And yeah, sure, it was picked up after being cancelled by NBC, but I never saw it after NBC cancelled it. Southland was the best thing on network tv at the time too, and it wasn't even like it had bad rating, (it actually did better than a few of their other shows) but NBC just let it go.

    Fox also had a really good cop show called The Chicago Code a few years back that was really good.

    Oh, and there's Shark. It was interesting watching CBS take one of the best shows they've had since CSI, as show that I'm pretty sure was one of their biggest hits, and then seemingly kill it because the star talked about not being happy.

    And there's also Pushing Daisies, that's another thing it's weird to see what happened to. Because for most of it's first season it actually did really good, and it was a great show, but instead of trying to find a place where it could maybe get about to those first season ratings, they killed it.

    I miss Life.

    I liked Life quite a bit.
    Like House was Sherlock but a doctor show, Life was The Count of Monte Crist but a cop show.

    Strike Force (1981). Just one season starring Robert Stack who leads an elite team of crimebusting L.A. cops which I thought was awesome stuff, complete with a kick ass opening theme! I'm sorely disappointed this show hasn't been released on home video.

    Outlaws (1986-87). Another show I loved with the batshit crazy premise of a 19th century gang of Texas outlaws and the sheriff (Rod Taylor of The Birds) chasing them having been transported by magical lightning while in an Indian graveyard into modern day Houston where they open a private detective agency. Honest.

    Agreed. I enjoyed The Dresden Files that were produced, even if they were too much of a departure from the books.
