i definitely agree with:

Family Guy
Farscape
Futurama [i miss it already, we haven't even got it on tv here at the moment though there's still a good few seasons left by my count, so hurray!]

Haven't even seen Firefly, [not out here] but its done by Joss Whedon [what a champ!] so it must be good, so bring it back so we can see it!

wow, they all start with 'F', how about that? odd...

um... also definitely M.A.S.K, Voltron, He-Man [ ;-) ]  Ghostbusters [animated], Dark Angel [though it would need a major writing revamp]

Its a shame Buffy's over, i am still in severe denial [just watched final episode a few hours ago], but i'll get over it eventually :(:(:(

and for all you australians out there, bring back micallef, on any station and any format.  Damn you to hell channel nine!

[Dolph Lundgren]

You guys have some great shows listed here.  Really brings back the memories..

I wholeheartedly agree with MST3K.

Transformers (the old style, not this new crap)

G.I. Joe

Thundercats

He-Man

M.A.S.K.

Family Guy

Nick Arcade

And, the best show ever, that I doubt anyone on here has seen or even remembers.. Video Power.  It was a show in the early 90s that was a gameshow for kids.  Kids would square off against each other for the rights to run through a giant obstacle course in the end.  The obstacle course was littered with hundreds of video games, and you had so long to grab as many as you could.  And, if you were lucky, you had the chance to snag a Neo-Geo, which was the mother of all videogame systems at the time.  Greatest show ever.

There needs to be reruns of these shows -

Automan

Shazaam

Dark Shadows

Night Gallery

Well, the cheeze-o-meter goess off with these two, but I'd love to see them again too.
 I can only remember certain episodes, like the one where the main character played the "phoenix" video game in the arcades, used his medallion to get 5 extra games.

Then there was anytime automan's car turned a corner and the sidekick got splatted against the window. great stuff. The whole "people use far less electricity during the daytime" is COMPLETELY dated now, just with internet use and all.

Didn't both of these shows only last one season?

Another one I'd like to bring back, though it'll never happen, was NOWHERE MAN. Cool concept, even if it was an X-Files rip-off.

[BlackAngel]

Oh yeah, does anyone remember that short lived, Rick Springfield show, based on the DC comic "Human Target"?

Bulls**t I still can't hear you sound off like you got a pair

[Callysto]

Yes I think perhaps they made one season.

I sure wish they could have ended the Phoenix series with him finding out about the girl he was looking for though. Oh well you will have that now won't you.

[JohnL]

>Didn't both of these shows only last one season?

Automan - 13 episodes
The Phoenix - Pilot movie & 4 episodes

Automan
The Phoenix

I'd like The Secret World of Alex Mack back.

OH YEAH! The Secret World of Alex Mack that was AWESOME! I think it still has a pretty nice and orginial feel to it. I remeber it was one of the show my mom loved to watch and she asked me to tell about it whenever it came on. I wonder how Space Cases, Nickelodian's Star Trek, and the Tommor People do doday?
