Especially in the peak TV era, there can only be so many shows that survive the proverbial chopping block. Whether they met an untimely end (cancellation) or ended on their own terms, several shows will not be returning in the new year. Here the staff has compiled the TV shows we’ll miss the most.
Agent Carter
It’s been hard to convince viewers that Agent Carter was the best Marvel series of 2016. From Hayley Atwell’s steely and charming lead performance that demonstrated just why her character was given off a spin-off series, to James D’Arcy proving just as capable and heartwarming as her sidekick Jarvis, the cast was uniformly great. But beyond the cast, what made the series stand out was its unabashed adoration of color and styling. Every frame of Agent Carter popped visually, with some of the most definitive costuming of the past year. It may lack the abrasiveness of its Marvel counterparts, but it more than made up for it both in its style and substance. – Allyson Johnson
