Everything Sucks!

Date of finale: February 16, 2018

Number of seasons: 1

Why it will be missed: Netflix says that not enough people watched Everything Sucks! but it is going to be one of the sorely missed shows in 2019. After all, it brought everything we needed for a sweet, nostaglic show.

Set in the 90s, we had the old-school dial-up internet (yes, it really was that slow once), the Tamagochis, and scrunchies. But more than that, this was a show about a bunch of teens finding themselves, including two realizing that they were lesbians and liked each other as more than friends. It proved it could have been a show for the masses had it been given a chance.

Life Sentence

Date of finale: March 7, 2018

Number of seasons: 1

Why it will be missed: Despite the promo to initially start the series, The CW’s Life Sentence wasn’t meant to be. There weren’t enough people tuning in live to give this series a second chance. And that’s the sad part, because it was a show with plenty of hope and a potentially bright future.

Hot off Pretty Little Liars, Lucy Hale delivered a heart-felt performance as a cancer survivor. Believing she was going to die, she suddenly realized that all the decisions she once made would come back to haunt her, including the quick marriage. We got the ups and downs of life through her eyes, while also seeing how her life and decisions affected others.

Luke Cage

Date of finale: September 30, 2018

Number of seasons: 2

Why it will be missed: Iron Fist‘s cancellation we could just about accept. Sure, the second season was stronger than the first, but it still wasn’t quite on point. Luke Cage‘s, however, was a shock for the masses. This was one of those shows that had a bright future and it was impossible to understand why Netflix would pull the plug.

Luke Cage Season 2 humanized the titular character more, helping to create a strong, three-dimensional character. We could have had more of this had there been a third season.
