The 2024-25 season wrapped up in July, and now it is time for our annual “all-star” poll which includes cancelled shows from the past few seasons that fans have tried to save. These are the top-voted posts from our prior polls plus other shows that have received notable attention (Resident Alien was cancelled after the Spring poll closed).
Note that “winning” in this poll is not about which show gets the most votes. In Summer 2023, Wynonna Earp got over 14K votes while Lockwood & Co got just below that and both were big winners. That was a huge outpouring of support for both shows, and that was shared with their networks and other venues that may consider picking them up. Perhaps this time around we will have four or five shows that draw that many votes, and all will count as winners because these numbers will be on full display and will prove that many people want them back.
This list includes shows that have been cancelled in the last three to four years or so (or in the case of The Orville, a show that is in limbo), and I will also consider adding other shows that were cancelled relatively recently if they get enough nominations in the comments. If there are at least five separate nominations in comments or at our social media sites (see list below), they will get added.
You can vote one time for up to five shows. And note that I fixed the glitch from last Summer’s poll that allowed users to vote multiple times.
In recent years, we have seen shows saved like Manifest, The Expanse, Lucifer, and Timeless (even if just briefly) by support from fans. So maybe one or more of the entries on this list will be the next to continue on to a new season after getting cancelled. For more information on what you can do to help some of these shows, see our Call to Action page. You can see the list of all the shows from the current season as well as the Cancellation/Renewal Score at our Cancellation Watch Page., and you can keep up with status updates with our Cancellation Watch posts. And be sure to follow this site and the Cancelled Sci Fi Twitter Site in the coming weeks for breaking news and updates.
This poll is now closed. Below are the final results. We have started a social media blitz for Warrior Nun and Wheel of Time, and you can read more about that at this link.
