We've all been there; you're enjoying a TV show and consuming all of the awesome moments and developments it has to offer, and then it's cancelled. Gone. Removed from the network and perhaps even concluding without a satisfying finale. Yep, we've all been there.

It's a tale as old as television itself and not even Marvel shows are safe from the cancellation ax. Yes, that Marvel. As in biggest studio in the entertainment world Marvel. That's right; long before it even had regular Disney Plus shows adding to its Marvel Cinematic Universe story, it had Marvel Television shows airing on both broadcast TV and streaming services such as Netflix and Hulu. It was an exhilarating time to be alive as superheroes were running the small screen too.

There were a number of MCU shows back then too, and some that have since been retroactively canonized by recent projects set within that shared universe of superheroes. But it's the current Disney Plus shows that have gotten people talking, with the Emmy-winning WandaVision setting a new precedent for the types of stories the MCU could tell, and it has just spiralled from there - for better or worse.

While most of the new shows were only designed to last for one season, rumor has it that a number of them might be coming back for new seasons. Rumor also has it that a number of them have been cancelled when there were expected to be more seasons, as the studio pivots away from riskier titles.

With that in mind, let's take a look at some of the Marvel shows that were cancelled far too soon.
