In this video, we take a look at 10 TV drama shows from 2008 that were cancelled after just one season. From high-concept sci-fi mysteries and legal dramas to supernatural thrillers and nostalgic reboots, these series had potential but ultimately failed to find a lasting audience.

Some of the shows featured in this countdown include Life on Mars, Knight Rider, My Own Worst Enemy, Canterbury’s Law, Swingtown, Cashmere Mafia, and New Amsterdam.

Were these shows truly failures, or were some of them cancelled too soon?

Let me know in the comments which of these series you remember — and which ones you think deserved another season.
