    The series that I really liked and wish it would have completed but ended up being canceled due to a writer strike was ‘Pushing Up Daisy’s’ https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0925266/

    Something I wish I’d bring back is the '90s style. Honestly so much was more interesting back then. All the colored gadgets, and the really cool ones where you could see sort of through the plastic see the components. Commercials were absolutely unhinged and wild. Things were just more fun and less formulaic. So many things today seem to have no real personality.

      Ultimately Stadia was an absolute win for those who gave it a chance. Google gave away those controllers like candy and when they pulled the plug, not only did you get a full refund for every game you purchased, they even unlocked the controllers so you can use them as Bluetooth controllers.

      Stadia was good, but Geforce Now is just so much better.

        It really was, though. Stadia was super convenient for playing games… anywhere really. I know a guy through Discord who played using it over Starlink. And it was free. 1080p60, any games you bought from their store where yours to play whenever. And Destiny 2 became Free to Play as well, without any payment required.

          They kind of shot themselves in the foot by launching it paid. I saw plenty of launch coverage when you had to pay a subscription and also buy games but everyone knew they would shut down because it was Google so no one bought into it. This is the first I’ve heard of it being free and I had to confirm it but that would have really sweetened the deal on launch.

    Lays had some chocolate covered potato chips that would come out around the holidays. I didn’t care for them myself, but my wife loved them and I miss buying them for her

          Yeah my primary memories of that show were everything was dark and nothing on the ship worked.

        I thought it was pretty boring at first. They were just on the ship the whole time and I wasn’t really interested. But it got better towards the end, and I was sad that they cancelled it. Though I can’t even remember what happened now, it’s been so long

        Everything. Great cast, interesting concept, nice mysteries and cool discoveries. It was a fun show.

        I’ll add the Terminator TV series with Lena Headly to my list of “bring it back” as well.

    Series: santa clarita diet. Weird humor, weird setting, but I liked it a lot… cancelled and ended on a cliffhanger.

      bk had it in their freestyle fountains, but the ones around here went back to normal ones and they don’t have it.

        They’re going back to the normal soda dispensers!?!? That is on my list of things to bring back. The freestyle ones are good in concept but seem to make all soda taste like a mix of flavors.

    I wanna say Freaks and Geeks but I also think it has the perfect ending and literally no show runner would be brave enough to do it on purpose.

      I would have loved to have seen them produce 3-4 more seasons. After that, I think it would have run its course as a coming of age show.
