Ok it didn’t actually look good, but the web series for The 7th Guest… I’m just obsessed with all things T7G lol. Anyways here’s the trailer, have a laugh
I don’t know, it looks pretty interesting. Certainly not worse than series like Are You Afraid of the Dark, which I loved as a kid.
It might not exactly fit the bill here, but ‘cancelled after one season’ is the closest example I can think of: Earth 2 (1994)
If I remember correctly (it was over 30 years ago), the last episode ended on a cliffhanger too!
There was a TV adaptation of The Secret World (MMORPG) planned but there has been no news on it for ages so I guess it has been shelved or dropped.

The Secret World was a great game. Maybe not a great MMO, but for small groups it’s one of the best ever made.
The show wasn’t terrible, from memory.
Its been a while so I could be misremembering, but it seemed like they stopped the show Defiance in favor of the game. Like I think the game came out during or right before the last season.
Monsters of God, Set in Texas in 1867, during the Comanche Wars, the project follows two powerful ex-cavalry men, a war-hungry Colonel, and his seemingly by-the-book executive officer.
Oh that sounds good
It was a historical fiction. Basically the people living there had made peace with the natives, and things were good. Then this colonel showed up and started a war with the natives.
This question had me looking up shows I remember hearing about, only to find they had a full season and then were cancelled. Probably because I didn’t watch.

There was a show in, probably, 1997 called “Ask Harriet”. It was basically “Tootsie” the TV series. I think only 8 episodes were produced and only 4 actually aired.
The show was pretty terrible, but Ed Asner was at the top of his game in it, so that was basically the hook for me.
I think they’ve tried to adapt the Mistborn trilogy (by Brandon Sanderson) a couple times but it never got off the ground.
As controversial as it would’ve been, I was interested in that alt-history “Confederacy” that was being looked at by D&D
Or the Metropolis reimagining planned on Apple TV.
A show my partner finished production on that apparently the producers decided was “too sad” for their brand. It’s the first time either of us has been on a show that finished production (at least shooting side) and never made it. Few times we’ve started on a show and 3 weeks into prep it gets cancelled before the camera showed up.
It still might get shopped around or whatever, I don’t know how these things happen.

One Strange Rock
We got the wrong fucking murder-bot show.
Where’s The Shrike, Bradley?
Odyssey 5 (2002)
… five space travelers … witness the destruction of the Earth; they are given the opportunity to travel to the past to identify and prevent the cataclysm.
Rubicon (2010)
… an innocent character is caught up in, and slowly unravels, a major conspiracy.
Fantastic picture quality (for me, a hi-fi geek with a JVC projector). I forget to follow the plot while admiring the cinematography.
