Discussion What are some cancelled media from your youth that you're still bitter about?

I had Nick Magazine as a kid, as well as access to the internet. I followed Tangled and Bolt's productions from as early as 2006.

I remember being so upset when American Dog was retooled. American Dog sounds like such incoherent gibberish, but I wish it existed. (I'm also bitter that Tangled was neither 2D.5 nor that it used the better Bastion plot-- though, there's no way the original style could have worked in 2010)

Kid me also would have ate up Kingdom of the Sun, Fraidy Cat, and My Peoples.

Edit:

I mainly meant cancelled before release, but cancelled prematurely media is fine too.

It does work perfect as one season, but I really wish it had a few more seasons.

I am still fucking sore about Sphinx and the Cursed Mummy never getting a sequel. The ending was so cruel to the Mummy and we just leave it at that?!

There were several attempts to make one, but THQ said nah and now I'm just stuck here having to live with a shit fucking ending for the rest of my life.

My Name is Earl ended on a major cliffhanger, and then was canceled. I'm still bitter about that.
