welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’re
counting down our picks for the top ten
upsetting TV show cancellations in 2018
and Carol I understand that you played
an important role in making this happen
so I think it’s time you got a paying
job
before we begin we publish new content
every day so be sure to subscribe to our
Channel and ring the bell to get
notified about our latest videos for
this list we’re looking at popular shows
that were cancelled in 2018 much to the
dismay of fans everywhere we’ll be
excluding shows that were cancelled only
to be saved by another network or shows
that have reached or will soon reach
their intended conclusion
number ten Shadowhunters after the
Mortal Instruments lackluster
performance at the box office and a
negative reviews from critics future
adaptations of Cassandra Clare’s popular
why a series seemed unlikely if we stick
together it will work do you really
believe that though plans for a sequel
were indeed abandoned fans were
delighted when just a few years later
the franchise returned as a TV series it
was never a critical darling but the
serialized format was a much better fit
for Clare’s writing style and
mythologically dense world Simon please
call me back I need to talk to you sadly
while the showrunners had initially
expressed interest in adapting the
entire book series the third season is
its last two episodes were thankfully
added to help give the series a sense of
closure but this conclusion comes far
earlier than it could have number nine
rise in this world of short attention
spans and over abundant content a new
show doesn’t have a couple of seasons to
find its legs
[Music]
this is working from producers Jason
Katims and Jeffrey seller the men behind
Friday Night Lights and Hamilton
respectively this musical drama had huge
promise it also saw the welcome returned
to the screen of Josh Radnor who you may
know as Ted Mosby from How I Met Your
Mother
we’re not going to recast we’ll make it
work while many have praised it for its
heart others criticized the pacing and
lack of emotional nuance based on the
show’s solid finale we suspect that it
could have risen to greater heights but
now we’ll sadly never know what did you
just don’t touch me
number eight the mick did this sitcom
often feel like Adi Reynolds spin-off
from It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia
yes yes it did and you know what that’s
not a bad thing so ask you one more time
Sabrina why the mick was not for
everyone but for fans of over-the-top
crass comedies about self-destructive
characters it was perfect
claiming the spotlight in the leading
role Kaitlin Olson was really able to
showcase her mastery of comedic acting
bullets in the gun together very
dangerous but bullets in gun separate
very safe further distinguishing the
mick from It’s Always Sunny was the
supporting cast Karla Jimenez and the
Olsen’s on-screen Ward’s Sofia Black
Dahlia
Thomas Barr busca and Jack Stanton after
two seasons though the mick is
officially gone and far too soon what um
you’re better than that
a thousand number seven The Exorcist
examples of long-form horror are few and
far between and even within those
limited offerings only a handful of them
are truly great you would shoot me
without hesitation
if the haunting of Hilla house has left
you hungry for more We strongly
recommend checking out the Exorcist
based on the novel by William Peter
Blatty
and picking up where the original 1973
Exorcist film left off The Exorcist was
unfairly dismissed by many would-be
viewers as another unwelcome horror
remake wake up
here’s the thing though it was a solid
scary and tense series we can only
imagine what it could have accomplished
had more people tuned in number six
great news
more like terrible news every now and
then a comedy series comes along that in
the sea of groan inducing cookie-cutter
lowest-common-denominator sitcoms serves
as a life preserver for us to cling to
it’s what I always wanted so why doesn’t
it feel like it great news might have
looked like just another silly premise
but a rock solid cast smart writing and
the involvement of producer Tina Fey
elevated the series to the forefront of
network comedy okay mom what are you
looking for in a man a big raccoon coat
a straw hat and holding a little pennant
that says Halle NBC had something
special
and rather than nurture it they
unceremoniously gave it the axe before
most people had the chance to take
notice
created by 30 rock writer Tracy
Whitfield it may not have been the next
30 rock but it nonetheless deserved
better and our shows off the air I
haven’t read a book or had a favorite
thing in seven years
number five ash vs. Evil Dead
considering we hadn’t seen Bruce
Campbell star in an Evil Dead movie
since 1992 s army of Darkness few people
ever thought he’d wield the boomstick
but then the unthinkable happened
ash Williams was back and in a series no
less despite the odds ash vs. Evil Dead
proved to be more than nostalgia bait it
was fantastic
gory funny provocative it had the spirit
of the original films translated into
the modern age and now after three
you save them what really makes this
hurt is that when a fan campaign kicked
off to save the series
Campbell announced that this was his
retirement from the role talk about the
number four Quantico whose bright idea
was it to cancel one of the best
dramatic thrillers on television
starring the incomparable Priyanka
Chopra as Alex Parrish Quantico followed
our heroine as she navigated the FBI and
CIA as an intelligence agent and
returned our guns you already know what
happened next
sure it borrowed from shows that came
before it but with its Bollywood star
headlining it was also breaking new
ground while telling a story that was
all its own
none of the threats today were real the
only real threat was you like any series
of its kind viewership had dipped
noticeably in later seasons but it’s not
like people had stopped tuning in
altogether we’re sure that ABC had its
reasons but fans aren’t pleased if I
have to match you you have to match me
number three Luke Cage for a few years
it seemed as if Marvel was going to
conquer the small screen much like it
did the box office with the MCU if
you’re lying
her Netflix formula felt like a winning
one and by 2017 we had five ongoing
series and one crossover apparently that
was the peak of the Marvel Netflix
partnership things have taken a turn
things change
iron fist is no major loss but paired
with the cancellation of the superior
and much better received Luke Cage it
feels symptomatic of a larger problem
which makes us fear for Jessica Jones
and daredevil whatever the future holds
Mike Coulter’s Luke Cage is going to be
you should burn it number two the last
man on earth
Four Seasons is a perfectly respectable
run for a comedy series especially one
with such a specific premise you know as
they say in the movie get busy living or
get busy truly was a Shawshank
Redemption but here’s the thing we’ll
Forte’s the last man on earth
wasn’t getting stale or showing any
signs of slowing down in fact it was
consistently one of the funnier shows on
television it was inventive and used its
premise as an opportunity to make the
sort of bold creative decisions most
shows would never dare I Got News for
You Tom Hanks I will never ever talk to
a volleyball no we have time not buying
it
balls aren’t people dude I know but also
for fun we’ve heard a plot summary of
what season five would have involved and
sure enough it sounded like will 14
company had big plans and a clear vision
if only we could see it brought to life
oh hey before we unveil our top pick
here are a few honorable mentions okay
watch a little online porn it’s 21st
century so we’re not here about the
point oh you gotta help track the hacker
how we have no idea which direction he
went to Freeport come on
guess that answers your question number
one American vandal this one hurts like
being accused of a crime we didn’t
commit
Dylan why am i interviewing you everyone
thinks I did it dinner what the dicks
a parody of the true crime genre
popularized by podcasts like serial and
Netflix is own making a murderer
American vandal applied the same style
of investigative reporting to fictional
high school crimes the crime in question
was always juvenile but the overall
execution of this series the social
commentary and exploration of its themes
for anything but 186 seconds / 60
seconds so it took 8.1 minutes to draw
all the day why Netflix would cancel
this series is beyond us but we can only
assume that season two underperformed
according to their mysterious metrics
we’ve never seen a canceled Netflix
original get picked up by another
network but hey there’s a first time for
everything so if there’s any way you
could help me out that would be much
appreciated do you agree with our picks
