    Ended/cancelled with a load of loose ends. No other political drama (even House Of Cards) comes close for me.

    Couldn't agree more

    AS they say, 'in matters of taste there is no dispute', this season's episode of Veep in Tehran however gave me the most ROTFL moments in a long time thanks to those two when they get left behind at the airport with a bag full of minature booze in a scenerio described by Mike as "Wonderful, black hawk down with Laurel and Hardy."

    Conor thanks for that cos I've struggled with Veep. Loved ITTOI and "In the Loop" but really struggled with Veep s1 and s2.

    You have given me new hope my friend and I will persevere.

    Oh definitely don't get me wrong, Veep is a fantastic show. A slightly worse version of The Thick of It would still be considered to be better than 90% of whatever else is on :D

    Plus it has one of my favourite quotes ever:

    Selina: Jonah. Hey, listen, settle something for me.
    Jonah: Okay.
    Selina: You like to have sex and you like to travel?
    Jonah: Yes, ma'am.
    Selina: Then you can f*ck off.

    Nip/Tuck - it jumped the shark so the last series was pish. I'd love another one to remedy this.

    The wire, The Sopranos, or Stargate sg1
    The first two were great, but another season would completely ruin them for a multitude of reasons. Maaaaaaaaybe you could do a one-off mini series on The Wires characters 10-15 years from now, but thats about it.

    Alan Tudyk (Wash, the pilot) has to be one of the most likeable character/actor combos ever in it, too.

    But would any of them have the masterful editing, score, acting, make up and special effects wizardy of this shining example of the cinematic art?

    Veronica Mars.

    A show that should have been utter teen twaddle but ended up being something ridiculously compelling for me because it was so outside of my sphere of experience in life and had numerous characters who were utterly unique. Some of the best writing in any TV show i've ever seen and i've seen 'em all. Can't recommend it enough, especially to people who will presume they will hate it because of the subject matter (high school/early college kids).

    In the end, the mere fact that it wasn't teen twaddle got it cancelled and TV in general suffered because of it.

    Also, i still have a huge crush on Kristen Bell.

    All the greatest TV shows ended at exactly the right time, therefore I wouldn't like to see any of them return for another season.

    They made a movie recently as the final tie up series. Haven't watched it but remember the show being entertaining enough

    Can't say that i agree at all. Plenty of great stuff got cancelled because it just didn't get the numbers because Dancing with the Bake Off Survivor or some other brain=off **** was on at the same time.

    Deadwood breaks your argument.

    That's returning for at least another series (probably more). As far as I know, series 4 will be filmed before Christmas and shown early in the new year.

    Wonderfalls. Fantastically bizarre show about a twenty-something woman with no ambitions in life who's forced to help people when inanimate objects try to speak to her to involve her in other people's ****.

    Firefly instantly disproves your theory. It didn't end at the right time, having been cancelled halfway through its first season, yet is considered by many to be one of the best TV shows ever.

    That being said, as much as I loved Firefly it's been too long since it finished that I don't think it would work if it came back.
