There are more shows I've watched and enjoyed, but I'm hard-pressed to think of them all as timeless shows I'll miss when they're cancelled. Even some that I followed were easy to let go when they ended--like Sopranos. I felt the show peaked at the end of Season 2, and Steve Buscemi revived it for me when he directed his first episode.

I wish I could remember the name of a show that, I guess, only lasted a few episodes. Beck's "Devil's Haircut" was the theme song and it was about a boy whose dad made a deal with the devil. He had to send runaway souls back to Hell by collecting them in a device (such as a dust devil) and returning the soul to a lady at the Department of Motor Vehicles (a Hell on Earth). It's second only to Police Squad!​ on my list of shows with an unjustifiably short life span.

REAPER!

We enjoyed that show, at least for a while. Eventually it got too stupid and silly and we gave up. Ray Wise, though, is probably the best Satan ever cast.

I'm not a big tv watcher, I must admit. My all time favourite tv series is HTV's ROBIN OF SHERWOOD, which introduced a fantasy element into the legends of Robin Hood (Robin's spiritual father was Herne the Hunter, god of the forests..there was also a sorcerer or two, a witch who tried to raise Lucifer, seven magic swords made by Wayland the Smith and a talismanic Silver Arrow) while also having lots of historically accurate costumes and actual historical events, like King Richard's council. It was filmed on location in England and Wales, with fantastic real castles and abbeys (no crummy cardboard sets) and beautiful forest scenes.
my second favourite was Arthur of the Britons, which was a 70's series about King Arthur but it was the reverse of ROBIN...it took the magic OUT of the King Arthur legend, and had him as a realistic dark age chieftain living not in Camelot, but in a large hut in a traditional village.

There are bits of other shows that I like. Heroes was good for a while. Some of the episode of Dollhouse were amazing but others were awful. As one of the new crop of Vampire shows Blood Ties was great and far superior to True Blood for me [Moonlight was okay too].

In truth I can't think of anything in the last 4-5 years that I’ve raved about. Except for, maybe, Rubicon — one of the last intelligent complex stories I’ve seen. It had it's flaws but I loved the writing...

Miami Vice
