    Default Could have been a favorite TV show

    I was catching up on the Favorite TV Show thread, and I thought there were several shows that could have been in the running if only they hadn't been canceled.

    Some I enjoyed were:

    Earth 2--a tad corny, but the Kurgan was on it!

    Threshold,
    with Carlo Gugino.. successive seasons were to be called Foothold and Stranglehold--just the names held promise!

    Karen Sisco, also with Carlo Gugino (I like her, I admit)

    But the best canceled series from recent years was Eyes, with Tim Daly. That could have been a long term favorite if only they had given it a chance.

    There are probably others I'm forgetting right now.. How about yours?

    The link to Voyagers! isn't working right.
    It needs the exclamation point.
    Copy and past it if you want to view info on the show.

    Yep QUARK is a real classic. I just found it can be had on a 2 DVD set (only a total of I think 8 episodes were ever made) for 13.00. I think I may just have to grab it
