The past year has been an interesting one for television. Plenty of TV shows have come and gone, airing just one season in that space of time before being unjustly cut short (Dead Boy Detectives). Others have announced that their long runs would be coming to something of a premature end due to issues outside of their control (911: Lone Star bowing out after just five seasons).

Elsewhere, major movie studios have made their presence felt on TV once again, with Marvel Studios offering up new installments of the Marvel Cinematic Universe in the form of miniseries Echo and Agatha All Along (along with Marvel Animation's X-Men '97) and Lucasfilm introducing audiences to a new Star Wars story in The Acolyte (and the upcoming Skeleton Crew). Unfortunately, not even the Star Wars franchise is safe from the cancellation ax asThe Acolyte was cancelled after one season, too.

It just goes to show that none of the big franchises are safe from cancellations once in a while, and even that raises more questions about which TV shows are viable in today's day and age. There are so many more factrs to take into account, including who produces the show, its budget, the service it's being made for, and the franchise it might belong too. And all of that can definitively decide the fate of a series, when in the past maybe only one or two of those factors would have been taken into account.

With all of that in mind, let's look at some of the shows which are unfortunately in danger of cancellation in the coming year.
