When it comes to TV, it can be a fickle format, as some fan favorites don’t make it for the long haul, but cancellation isn’t always the final word for some shows.
Recent examples include comedies like Scrubs and Brooklyn Nine-Nine, or even dramas like Law & Order, which made a TV comeback in 2021 after 11 years off the air.

Among the lineup are shows like The Late Show with Stephen Colbert and The Hunting Party, in addition to Gen V and Watson. See how those shows and more stack up in our ranking, and let us know which show you’d like to see saved in the comments section below.
