I agree with all of your choices.

ESPECIALLY American Dreams, Freaks and Geeks, Joan of Arcadia, Two of a Kind, Popular, My-So Called Life, and Jack and Bobby!!

I loved Zoe, Duncan, Jack & Jane!! And even when it was gone for a while and came back as "Zoe..", I loved it. I wish that show would come out on DVD, but I don't know if it'll ever see the light of day.

Another great WB sitcom I loved that didn't stick around for two long was "Off Centre" with Eddie Kaye Thomas in it. I thought that was a great show.

I loved watching those shows too.I wonder why they were cancelled.I think the reason that Off Centre got cancelled is because it wasn't as great without Mike & Liz as a couple

I think 8 Simple Rules would have gone on for at least 5 or 6 seasons if John Ritter hadn't died.

I agree, two seasons of Popular was not enough, I would've loved the characters to all make it to college, and it sucks that season 2 ended on such a cliffhanger as well.

Is ABC picking it up?

That was absolutely HORRIBLE that they ended it with Nicole running over Brooke...If you watch the commentary on one of the later season Two episodes, they kinda tell you the layout of what the results of that were gonna be.....One of the Funniest shows ever.....I LOVE MARY!

They would have had 5 ,6 or even 7 season's if John were still here....And we would have seen Rory in HIgh School, and Bridget in college. It would have been great.

ZOE was so great....One of the best comedies the WB ever had...(along with Unhappily ever after and Reba), and it was much better than Friends ever was.UGH!..And it was wierd to see Lex with a full head of hair. LOL
