That show is New Amsterdam, and its premiere was delayed. I think it will begin sometime in April.

Thank you, EC. I had gone through lists of network shows looking for something "sf sounding" but hadn't been able to find it.

Hey, my brother Browncoats, please don't forget our show, Surface.

Btw, I'm trying to round up so late night help taking down Jericho on the TV Tally poll. We are within striking distance, after they had a really slow day.

You can vote for Firefly 6 times every 6 hours (in spite of the contrary instructions on the site) so just 4 or 5 people voting tonight will put us in the lead after chasing them from 100 behind for several days.

Let's show those Jericho fans that the most dedicated fans on the net are Firefly fans.

Apologies for the detour on your thread, but the window may only be open for a few more hours.

You will find the details and link on the It Would Be A Kindness thread below this one a few. - Jstn (Ad-Nim-istrator of savesurface.com)

besides Firefly,

the biggest one for me is Freaks and Geeks, still one of my very favourite shows. meant alot to me personally as i was the same age as Lyndsay and goin through nearly exactly what she was (my nan had just died and i'd also left my geeky intelligent friends to hang out with the weed smoking freaks) so i was really gutted about that.

also Futurama (better than the Simpsons!!), and a bit before my time - American Gothic and was Twin Peaks cancelled or was Lynch just being awkward i forget.

i doubt i'll ever get to see Drive over here, and ill have even less chance now its been cancelled! so that too.

Firefly (like, duuuhhh)

plus (in the usual no order):

Dark Angel (just two seasons was a sacrilege)
Drive (I thought this genuninely had potential if it had been given a chance)
Futurama (Bender Rules!!)
Invasion (not a perfect show but very likable)
American Gothic (dark, twisted, evil - what more do you want)

and a new one to the list:

Carnivale (again some great potential, Clancy Brown was brilliant)

and I would maybe add Angel and Due South as well, but whilst they were cancelled, at least they had something of a run.

As for funny situations maybe have some of the people act out various scenes from the shows and get them mixed up with each other i.e. start with a DA sketch that turns into a Futurama sketch.
Or have the know-it-all geeks (no offence to them) point out all the minor little mistakes.
Or maybe just have the people argue over whose show should get resurrected.
Beyond that I don't really know.

Okay, I'll bite.

Firefly Obviously
Drive Two Weeks!
Dark Angel S1 and S2 were two different shows
Titus Dave!
Brisco County Jr. I can't believe this hasn't been mentioned yet
All of the above were canceled by FOX in three seasons or less.
The Night Stalker The new one with Stewart Townsend
Pretender The longest running show on my list at four seasons!
Dinosaurs I'm the baby! Gotta love me!

Yeah that one too.

That's okay Iwaves. The memory does have holes in it sometimes. No need to be ashamed.

Declan, I was wrong about when New Amsterdam would premiere. It will be in two weeks, Tuesday, March 4 on FOX. It will be on at 9pm Eastern/Pacific, following American Idol, so that should help it get some attention.
