community joel mchale danny pudiJustin Lubin/NBCCommunity had its final season this year.

Last year had its fair share of television casualties. But despite cancellation, several shows are still worth a watch.

Crowdsourced rankings website Ranker named the best cancelled shows of 2014, and though these ones won't be coming back in the new year, they still had a good run.

Here are the top 11 shows that were canceled last year:

11. Enlisted

When Staff Sergeant Pete Hill (played by Geoff Stults) punches a superior officer while deployed in Afghanistan, he gets sent to back to Fort McGee in Florida, where his two younger brothers, Derrick and Randy, are stationed.

10. Longmire

Based off the bestselling novels by Craig Johnson, this series follows Walt Longmire, the dedicated sheriff of Absaroka County, Wyoming, as he returns to work after his wife's death. Longmire throws himself into his work, investigating crimes and running for re-election, as he attempts to hide the pain he still feels over the loss of his wife.

9. Kitchen Nightmares

Celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay (of Hell's Kitchen notoriety) travels the country helping failing restaurants turn their business around. But despite the many changes he suggests - menu tweaks, updated furniture - it's up to each owner to heed his advice and make their restaurant profitable once again. 

8. Intelligence

As the first human to be directly connected to the Internet through a microchip in his brain, Gabriel Black is able to hack any data center worldwide, which proves a valuable security tool for the United States.

7. The Crazy Ones

This show followed unpredictable and unorthodox advertising executive Simon Roberts (played by Robin Williams) as he runs a powerful ad agency in Chicago with his daughter Sydney (played by Sarah Michelle Gellar). However, Roberts sometimes lets his crazy ideas get the best of him,  forcing Sydney to spend more time putting out fires than developing her own career. 

6. Being Human

In the American version of a British sitcom by the same name, three roommates (a vampire, a werewolf, and a ghost) help each other attempt to live normal lives as humans. However, they quickly discover that living double lives - and keeping their true identities secret - isn't as easy as it looks. 

5. Suburgatory

When single dad George Altman (played by Jeremy Sisto) finds condoms in his teenage daughter's room, he decides to move from their New York City apartment to a suburb in Connecticut. However, the transition comes as a culture shock to both father and daughter as their new neighborhood seems like something straight out of "The Stepford Wives."

4. Raising Hope

Nine months after 23-year-old Jimmy Chance has a one-night stand with a serial killer, he visits her in jail only to find that she's given birth to his daughter. Unprepared for parenthood, Jimmy relies on his dysfunctional family - including his mother (played by Martha Plimpton), father (played by Garret Dillahunt), and grandmother (played by Cloris Leachman) - to help raise the child.

3. Revolution

Over a decade after a permanent blackout devastates the world, humanity has adapted to life without electricity. That is, until the local militia kill a man involved in the power outage, setting his daughter on a journey to find out what really happened 15 years ago.
