10:40 pm - 12/16/2011
2011 was a brutal year for television. Shows dropped like flies. From decades-old daytime shows to quickly-canceled prime-time fare, the 60 programs featured in this slideshow all ended their run. Now, sit back with some tissues and take a moment to remember the television shows we lost in 2011.
Also a video montage with other some shows that were omitted from this list.
Hannah Montana: March 24, 2006 - January 16, 2011
As the star went up in smoke, so went the show
Life Unexpected: January 18, 2010 - January 18, 2011
Cancellation expected.
Glory Daze: November 16, 2010 - January 18, 2011
The '80s are over. Now the show is too.
Medium: January 3, 2005 - January 21, 2011
At least she can still talk to its spirit...
Lie to Me: January 21, 2009 - January 31, 2011
No lies, sad death
Friday Night Lights: October 3, 2006 - February 9, 2011
Clear eyes, full hearts, couldn't survive.
Human Target: January 15, 2010 - February 9, 2011
They got him.
$#*! My Dad
No $#*!
Greek: July 9, 2007 - March 7, 2011
Much like the ancient Greek civilization it emulated, the show is history.
The Defenders: September 22, 2010 - March 11, 2011
There is no defense in the end.
The Cape: January 9, 2011 - March 11, 2011
Six seasons and a movie? Not so much.
V: November 3, 2009 - March 15, 2011
At least the show ended before the world did.
Big Love: March 12, 2006 - March 20, 2011
There wasn't enough love to keep it going.
Detroit 1-8-7: September 21, 2010 - March 20, 2011
1-8-7ed before its time.
Skins: January 17, 2011 - March 21, 2011
Sometimes sex, drugs and controversy just aren't enough.
Secret Diary of a Call Girl: September 27, 2007 - March 22, 2011
The end was not a secret.
No Ordinary Family: September 28, 2010 - April 5, 2011
Off the Map: January 12, 2011 - April 6, 2011
Even harder to find now
Lights Out: January 11, 2011 - April 5, 2011
That they are.
Mr. Sunshine: February 7, 2011
Sunshine has faded into night
Perfect Couples: December 20, 2010 - April 7, 2011
Maybe not-so-perfect after all?
The Paul Reiser Show: April 14, 2011 - April 21, 2011
Remember Mad About You? That was a good show...
The Suite Life on Deck: September 26, 2008 - May 6, 2011
Not so suite now that it's over
Brothers & Sisters: September 24, 2006 - May 8, 2011
The family that stays together, gets canceled together.
Stargate Universe: October 2, 2009 - May 9, 2011
Turns out, the universe does have an end
Better with You: September 22, 2010 - May 11, 2011
Maybe they would have been better apart?
Outsourced: September 23, 2010 - May 12, 2011
Replaced by a cheaper program from India
Smallville: October 16, 2001 - May 13, 2011
Perhaps kryptonite was its undoing...
Mad Love: February 14, 2011 - May 16, 2011
Viewers were more mad than in love.
Hellcats: September 8, 2010 - May 17, 2011
Apparently, hellcats don't have nine lives.
Chase: September 20, 2010 - May 21, 2011
The chase has ended.
Running Wilde: September 21, 2010 - May 21, 2011
No more running.
The Event: September 20, 2010 - May 23, 2011
Maybe the Event was the show's ending?
The Chicago Code: February 7, 2011 - May 23, 2011
What's the code for cancellation?
The Oprah Winfrey Show: September 8, 1986 - May 25, 2011
You've got a cancellation! And you've got a cancellation!
And you've got a cancellation!
Criminal Minds: Suspect Behavior: February 16, 2011 - May 25, 2011
Is it suspect that the show behaved so poorly?
The Hard Times of RJ Berger: June 6, 2010 - May 30, 2011
The times got too hard.
Traffic Light: February 8, 2011 - May 31, 2011
Red light!
Camelot: February 25, 2011 - June 10, 2011
Let it fade into legend...
United States of Tara: January 18, 2009 - June 20, 2011
Not so united anymore
Law & Order: Criminal Intent: September 30, 2001 - June 26, 2011
Does the absence of law and order mean TV anarchy?
Men of a Certain Age: December 7, 2009 - July 6, 2011
Much like men of a certain age, this show's time was limited.
Law & Order: Los Angeles: September 29, 2010 - July 11, 2011
Crime once again can control the City of Angels
CHAOS: April 1, 2011 - July 16, 2011
ORDER wins!
Love Bites: June 2, 2011 - July 21, 2011
Love bit the dust.
Hawthorne: June 16, 2009 - August 16, 2011
The plug was pulled
Memphis Beat: June 22, 2010 - August 16, 2011
The beat did not go on.
The Nine Lives of Chloe King: June 14, 2011 - August 16, 2011
Maybe it could have used a few more?
State of Georgia: June 29, 2011 - August 17, 2011
Let's try the state of Hawaii next time.
Rescue Me: July 21, 2004 - September 7, 2011
Nope.
Friends with Benefits: August 5, 2011 - September 9, 2011
The benefits have expired
Entourage: July 18, 2004 - September 11, 2011
Friends forever -- or until cancellation
Jon & Kate Plus 8/Kate Plus 8: April 10, 2007 - September 12, 2011
The show was preceded in death by the Gosselin family.
All My Children: January 5, 1970 - September 23, 2011
Nothing lasts forever, but at least this came close.
The Playboy Club: September 19, 2011 - October 3, 2011
No one wants to remember that part of the '60s.
Free Agents: September 14, 2011 - October 5, 2011
They were agents of their own demise.
H8R: September 14, 2011 - October 5, 2011
H8d 2 D3th
Charlie's Angels: September 22, 2011 - November 10, 2011
The angels have returned to Heaven
How to Be a Gentleman: September 29, 2011 - October 15, 2011
A gentleman always faces the end with dignity.
Man Up!: October 18, 2011 - December 6, 2011
And down it goes!

and so damn scripted
And Paul Reiser had a show that only lasted a week? Somewhere, Helen Hunt is laughing and watching Pay It Forward.
LOL Skins
I just re-watch it over and over on Netflix
Bye you flop post-season 1 piece of shit
(except there is a special place in my heart for dean + jeff "kiss from a rose" and the racist trampoline guy)
DYING
lmao
and I thought the ones that lasted only a month were bad.
Was anyone really surprised? Anyone? Bueller?
By god
They are bad
I GOT PAID $500
But it did validate my taste in TV shows, though.
I had to stop reading them, they were painful.
I miss them most of all
this show went on for too damn long
Once they brought Lois in they should have just killed it. Or way before then, but still.
7th Heaven was the absolute worst.
I hated that show but I used to love reading the recaps on TWoP.
