A few off the top of my head:

Peter Benchleys Amazon
The Crow Stairway to Heaven
Now and Again
 
Millennium :mad:
Catwalk
Young Hercules :meow:
Miracles :mad:
My So Called Life :csad:

I'm sure I'll think of more.
 
Now and Again
American Gothic
Andy Barker P.I. (seriously, that show was f'n hilarious)
Any TV show done by Judd Apatow

and of course.....ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT!! Sweet god, what I would give to get this show back.
 
Dead Last. Came out during the summer of 2001 on the WB network. It's about a female lead singer for a band that sees and helps ghosts. **** didn't last long :csad:

Brimstone :cmad:
Daybreak. Only 3 episodes made it on TV. :csad:
The Black Donnellys :cmad:
The Dresden Files:csad:

So many more that I've forgotten. :csad:
 
Halfway Home
Blade
Now and Again
Young Hercules (had they only used the young Hercules they used from the main series and the Young Hercules moive this would have been a hit.)
 
Strange Luck
Brimstone
Tales of the Gold Monkey
Misfits of Science
Hard Time on Planet Earth
 
Arrested Development
Undeclard
Drive
Daybreak (C'mon you can't run the full 13 episode season? It was during the dead months of TV anyway!)
Dead Like Me
Blade
Titus

I'm sure there are more, that's all I can think of now though
 
farscape never got the attention it deserved, it's the dog's bollocks.
 
Freaks and Geeks
 
Biggest one for me is Keen Eddie.

Apatow ultimately found justice with his features though.
 
It's so hard to remember and I haven't seen most of those listed, but I do vaguely remember Life as we Know it. (There were a couple of really hot guys in it.) :) It should have been given more of a chance.
 
Wonderfalls, definitely.

John Doe also comes to mind.
 
Arrested Development :cmad::cmad::cmad:
Tru Calling
Drive
Reunion
 
I'll agree, Arrested Development got a raw deal in the end, but I'd say the show caught on to extent. Three seasons, and a handful of Emmys, I think that qualifies as "catching on".
 
I forgot about Tru Calling. I did like that. Too bad it only had one season.
 
The second was only six episodes, five of which actually aired.
 
Yeah, the sixth episode was pre-empted by a repeat of the Simple Life, 'cause it was around the time Paris and Nicole stopped being friends. :cmad:
