"BBC Three called time on Being Human yesterday, bringing an end to the channel&amp;#039;s most credible hit after five successful series.  The ending of the supernatural drama inevitably led to outcry from fans and the usual slew of complaints about BBC Three valuing tacky documentaries and trash over quality drama and entertainment.  We&amp;#039;re not entirely sure if that argument stacks up, but we can&amp;#039;t possibly deny that the channel has been a bit hasty in the past with lowering the axe. So for this week&amp;#039;s Friday Fiver, we&amp;#039;ve picked a handful of shows that deserve a second chance. The Fades It&amp;#039;s not very often that a show wins a BAFTA, but fails to get a second series. There must have been some awkward meetings in Zai Bennett&amp;#039;s BBC Three head office after the show he culled and that he claimed failed to &amp;quot;engage&amp;quot; walked away with the &amp;#039;Best Drama&amp;#039; crown. It might not have been quite as great as its diehard fans would have you believe, but The Fades had incredible promise and it felt like things were only getting warmed up.      Liquid News A show with a daily roundup of entertainment news. That sounds like a good idea. Basically, it would be Digital Spy the TV Show. Sadly, after four years and a long list of presenters BBC Three gave up on Liquid News. We admit the show&amp;#039;s quality was, to put it politely, variable, after the sad death of original host Christopher Price, but it had just begun to show promise again when it was cruelly taken away from us in 2004.      Doctor Who Confidential We wouldn&amp;#039;t have dared not put this on the list. Never has the axing of a BBC Three show caused quite such outcry. Has Auntie learned nothing about provoking Whovians down the years? It might not have been the most creative or original idea the channel ever had, but the behind-the-scenes spinoff series definitely had a passionate audience and who doesn&amp;#039;t want a bit more Matt Smith and Jenna-Louise Coleman in their lives?      Monkey Dust Seriously dark. Subversive. Unsettling. Taboo-breaking. BBC Three&amp;#039;s Monkey Dust was a hidden comedy gem that aired for 18 episodes, before it was sadly called to a halt following the death of co-creator Harry Thompson. If fellow writer Shaun Pye could get a team together for one more episode, we&amp;#039;d love to see it.      Pulling Decent ratings. A BAFTA nomination. A British Comedy Award. A brilliant cast. Great writing. So what do you go and do after two superb series of this BBC Three sitcom? You axe it. Damn you BBC Three. Damn you. It did get a special episode to wrap things up, but that wasn&amp;#039;t enough for us. It wasn&amp;#039;t enough!      What shows would you like to see back on BBC Three? Let us know below!
