Thought this was an interesting question and I’m sure there’s lots of suggestions out there.
Firefly
Raised by Wolves, and Colony.
Wait… is Raised by Wolves cancelled? That sucks.
Thanks. Aaargh!
That’s cold to cancel on an ending like that. I guess the implication is Grandmother got her own way and just devolved the hell out of everyone.
We can only speculate. I wish they at least release a graphic novel or something to end the story.
Maybe someone else will pick it up.
The chances for that looks bleak as it never had much viewership despite being a great series
Fringe
Pushing Daisies never got the ending it deserved. Everything had to be hastily wrapped up in one entire episode, third season setups were just left as loose ends, and it really didn’t do such a great show justice
Altered Carbon! season 2 was left open ended because it was supposed to get a 3rd season.
Adventure Time. It really needed one more season to fully flesh out the storylines they set up. Cartoon Network really screwed them (and other shows like SU) over
Stargate Universe! The way it ended was so unfair and yet the perfect setup for something new. There’s been rumors brewing for years and years at this point but nothing concrete has happened yet.

Firefly
Dirk Gently, the BBC America/Netflix one.
First season, phenomenal! Second season was pretty good, not as good as the first but still good. It set up a lot of things that were then not continued and I just want to know what they had planned.
Also Snowpiercer: You’ve filmed it, you’ve edited it, just let us see it!
(Edit: posted this as a reply to someone else. My bad!)
The Expanse. The show had a satisfying ending but the books went a bit further into the future and I’d like to see more in the shows.
My Name is Earl
Deadwood. The movie was too little way too late.
People have already beaten me to Firefly over and over again so I’ll add one likely to have been forgotten:
Carnivale.
Ended on an unbelievable cliffhanger, left SO MUCH unanswered, could’ve run for another decade. I’m re-mad that this show got canceled now.
Dead Like Me
