Just like Scrooge, these five shows needed a little more time.
1. Pushing Daisies
It was magical. It was dreamy. It was a casualty of the WGA strike. And maybe Bryan Fuller's inability to budget. The cancellation of this show taught me not to trust any network with my heart. #stillmad
2. Rutherford Falls
Brilliant show, great writing and casting, funny,, had a great heart. Also a near 100% on Rotten Tomatoes and great ratings. So why is it gone? Peacock stupidity. #stillmad #reaganandbobbyforever
3. Arrested Development
Too ahead of the times. Too good. Jessica Walters. That is all.
4. People of Earth
It was quirky and unusual as only a sitcom about a group of folks who believe they've been abducted by aliens could be. Any show that names an alien "Doug" has me for life. Great casting, smart writing. Even worked after Wyatt Cenac left.
5. Guest Book
Similar vibe to 'People of Earth.' Quirky, hilarious, with quirky musical interludes (that I, of course, bought), Guest Book was like a live-action short story collection. Each new episode would pick up where the last left off. And there was usually a twist.
