#now I never get to see how they'd parody RENT

You know, I had to sit here and think about this for a few minutes because, even as a kid, I don't think any of the shows I watched regularly got canceled until they already had many seasons under their belts. Including all the cartoons I watched.
Guess that must be a thing about having been a kid in the 80s. I mean, even shows I watched like Small Wonder and Out of This World were on for 4 seasons each. (Which, back then, was all you needed -- 96 episodes -- to have a good syndication run and be set up to show reruns of that show until the end of time.)
Even shows that got canceled in my late teens to early-20s that got canceled didn't hurt me on that kind of level, such as Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman. Because it's 4th and final season sucked. And Angel the Series was already in its fifth season when it got canceled, so while I was sad it was ending, I was okay.
So yeah, for me? Me being cold and bitter and heartless over a show getting canceled starts with Netflix canceling Anne with an E and Julie and the Phantoms. And I mean, at least Anne with an E got 3 seasons before it was canceled. Julie and the Phantoms only got one season. F U Netflix. 😒 Even now this is why I'm wary about starting any show Netflix produces.
I’ll never forgive Fox for canceling Pitch. NEVER.
#And I discovered#Julie and the Phantoms#at a time in my life when I NEEDED a bright and happy show#and the music was great#I KNOW I wasn't it's target demographic but so what?#look at the demo you ARE getting and just adjust a bit#but noooo#tv#cancellations#media#Netflix#and Apple TV is on my shit-list too#for cancelling Schimgadoon#before we got to the 80s and 90s musicals#now I never get to see how they'd parody RENT
