    Whatever happened to... TV shows that are gone...

    Starved... on FX? I loved that show but its gone now... I can only hope it comes back...

    Beyond Belief: Fact or Fiction... sure I didn't know Johnathan Frakes was on Star Trek but damn was he great on this show... it was such fun!

    Twilight Zone... not the old one thats still in syndication but the new one with Forrest Whittaker... where the hell did it go?

    Keeping Up Appearances... I think its no longer being made but damn it was great... I miss it... and I miss it a lot...

    Any shows anyone else misses?
    You smell that? That's the smell of spring, and I love it. You know what I love to do in spring? I love to come out into the woods, to walk amongst the budding trees, to smell and taste the hint of renewal that hovers in the air like a heady perfume, and to listen to the song of the birds who have returned from their long sojourn south. And bury the people I killed during the winter...

    I couldn't stand Twilight Zone with Whittaker. Sorry to disagree, but to each his own, right?

    Not sure about the others you mentioned, but Keeping Up Appearances was totally hilarious and very much missed.

    Along those lines, I really did like "Are You Being Served" from the early 70s. That was a hilarious BBC show too.

    Stateside, I wonder what happened to "Hitch" (I think that is what it was called) that Azarzia vehicle where he is a psychiatrist. Hope that one comes back!

    Ohhhh yeahhh Are You Served was awesome... I loved the snippy gay guy and the old skeeze who kept changing her hair... she reminded me of the lady from Trinity Broadcasting Network that always changed her hair color... it was like a mood ring for hair... i'm pretty sure thats still on...

    Keeping up Appearances is still on but I just need more of it! I've always wanted to see Sheridan... and Liz's husband...

    "Night Visions" Henery Rollins hosted truely interesting and in most cases very scary stories. (two half hour shows per episode). The show was killer ... then it got killed.

    Arrested Development...

    It still baffles me to this day as to why it's no longer on the air, the best comedy show -ever- (nobody else is allowed to have a different opinion on this one, because this isn't opinion, this is fact ).

    I guess Faux thought that the O'Reilly Factor was a better investment.

    I do miss Carnavale, some of the best TV, but did not know that Huff (not Hitch as I mistakenly wrote) was cancelled?

    I miss Greg The Bunny. It had a short life on Fox, but I thought it was pretty damn funny.

    Anyone seen the new show, "Californication"? Good stuff....

    I was toooooooooooootally going to say 'are you afraid of the dark' too... when I was a kid that show ruled... loved the one about how the phone lets people into your home though have no idea how it ended... they should break it out onto a series dvd...
