Lots of TV shows have come and gone, but there are some that just left too soon. Some end after (or even before) just one season because of low ratings, bad reviews, lack of interest, and a lot more factors. But with these shows, it was a good run for them. They had loyal fans, they were interesting but alas, cable networks just didn't think they were up to par with the rest of the other shows. Here, let's take time to appreciate the shows that were great while they lasted:

ALCATRAZ
"On March 21, 1963, Alcatraz officially closed. All the prisoners were transferred off the island. Only, that's not what happened. Not at all." Whaaaat? What actually happened was on that day in 1963, prisoners and guards disappeared without a trace only to return present-day unaged and with no clue of their whereabouts since that time. So comes the shows trying to track down all the other prisoners and figuring out where they've been since that time. It's an interesting story of a not-so-prison break, too bad we don't get to know much more about it.
