The fate of Gcb, one of our favorite new shows, will be decided in the next few weeks, and right now, there's a 50/50 chance it'll survive. If it does get canceled, at least it'll instantly become a member of what we'll call the Arrested Development/Freaks & Geeks/Firefly club. Shows that were canceled before their time, and have gained cult status since they left the airwaves.
All of those programs have rabid enthusiastic followers, and in the case of Firefly and Arrested Development, that fan enthusiasm has directly led to big screen resurrections.
We're hoping Gcb gets a renewal, but while we wait, let's take a look at a few other shows throughout the years that were unfairly snuffed out, and picture ... what might have been.

Watch Cyborg Free Online. Albert Pyun‘s Cyborg (1989) stars Jean-Claude Van Damme, Deborah Richter, Vincent Klyn, Dayle Haddon, and Terrie Batson. Cyborg (1989)’s plot synopsis: a martial-arts science fiction film where Gibson Rickenbacker (Jean-Claude Van Damme), a gun for hire (Slingers), battles a group of murderous marauders (The Pirates) led by Fender Tremolo (Vincent Klyn) along the East coast of the United States in a post-apocalyptic future to rescue and protect a cyborg that holds the key to the salvation of humanity. “I like this World!!!!!!”
My favorite part of Cyborg is probably the sewer/chase/fight sequence. Great action. Cyborg didn’t do very well in theaters though.”The movie received a generally negative reception from critics however it did retained a cult status…Cyborg 2, starring Elias Koteas and Angelina Jolie, was released in 1993. Cyborg 3: The Recycler, a direct-to-video release, followed in 1995. Both films bear little to...
