Ranking TV Shows That Got Canceled
Internet ranking for cult shows&#x2F;movies is problematic, these shows have an extremely loyal fan base which ties the origins of the word fan to it&#x27;s root fanatic quite often.<p>While these are great shows, the ranking don&#x27;t necessarily mean much, it just means that there were more fans willing to give the show a good rating, and more likely than not on probably more than a few accounts.<p>It&#x27;s hard to compare IMDB ratings properly when shows like America&#x27;s Got Talent or the Voice only have 5000-7000 votes with a pretty shitty score while clearly being considerably more popular with the mass audience.
Shows like GoT are an outlier with over 1M votes cast, while even highly acclaimed TV sci fi shows like Star Trek TNG have only about 60K votes.<p>Firefly is the &quot;best tv show that got canceled ever&quot; just like Kim Jong Un is Time&#x27;s internet person of the year, mostly anonymous internet voting and highly loyal and fanatic fan base can easily skew statistics.<p>I love Firefly I would loved to have seen it live to be 5-6 seasons old, but every time I see people talk about it like it was the &quot;greatest mistake&quot; in modern television programming I can&#x27;t really take them seriously.
