As well as the more popular TV shows of the 2000s, there were shows we've forgotten — but loved just as much.
From "Pushing Daisies" to "Flight of the Conchords," we've said goodbye to some truly quirky comedy shows in the past two decades.
"Freaks and Geeks" only ran for one season but helped launch the careers of some of today's most loved actors, some of whom reappeared in another short-lived show, "Party Down."
"Reba" and "My Wife and Kids" are among the beloved but long-forgotten family sitcoms.
When you think of your favorite canceled TV shows over the past 20 years, you might think of the most popular — "Friends" or "Game of Thrones," or maybe you were a fan of "Arrested Development," "Ugly Betty," or "Gossip Girl."
But what about the ones from way back that you'd forgotten you loved?
Insider took a look back at some of the shows that were canceled since 2000 to show you just how much good — and goofy — TV we're missing today.
