Two programs I still miss are "Millennium" and "Brimstone"....
They re-ran the suspense/supernatural MM on the FX channel during the time before my cable company picked it up, and it hasn't been on anywhere since, far as I know--- maybe someday I will be motivated enough to look for the DVDs.
The first two seasons, it was pretty darned good, and inspired a lot of the viewers to research some of the topics they covered, including the current fascination with Mary Magdalene.
The third season, though, went haywire; the two writers of season 2 left; the 2 lead actresses left (one was married to one of the departed writers), and the producer, Chris Carter, came back to it after the year of making the X-Files movie. He hired several new actors who never really caught on, changed the story arc, and, in the opinion of many fans, screwed everything up.
Though the quality of the performances themselves never wavered, and some of the episodes were done well enough IMO (though perhaps more X-Filey than Millennial, not that I didn't like X-Files too), the program ended many months before the REAL millennium.
"Brimstone" at least, I managed to tape all the existing episodes when it re-ran on Sci-Fi a couple of years ago, but will always regret that this really different series didn't even get to last out even one whole season !!
