The following is the fourth part of a list of TV series that are ending or have been cancelled during the 2010-11 season.
For more, be sure to check out part one, part two, and part three of the listings.
Note: Go here for the latest 2011-12 season list.
Networks and cable channels have different ideas of when a season starts or ends but, to us, it makes sense to start the season on June 1, 2010 and and it on May 31, 2011. In some cases, the last episode of a show aired earlier than these dates but the network didn’t get around to canceling the series until later. If you don’t see what you’re looking for, try the 2008–2009 page, the 2009–2010 listings.
Scoundrels (ABC)
Airing over the summer, this TV show performed even worse than its sister show, The Gates. All seven episodes have aired and there won’t be any more.

Essentially an on-ice version of Dancing with the Stars, this reality series was not a hit in the ratings and won’t be back for season two.
Smallville (The CW)
After 10 seasons, it looks like Clark Kent will finally become Superman. Will we get to see the man of steel slip on the familiar blue and red tights before the end? We’ll have to wait and see.
Stargate Universe (Syfy)
The most recent member of the Stargate franchise hasn’t attracted as many fans as the previous series. Syfy has cancelled the show and all of the episodes have now aired. Producers and MGM are looking at possible ways to continue the series in some way.

Nanny Jo Frost announced that she wanted to end the series so that she can start a family of her own. The finale aired on March 18, 2011.
Terriers (FX)
Though many viewers and critics loved it, this series never caught on in a big way. FX aired all 13 episodes but there won’t be any more.

This sitcom revolves around the Payne family who live in a suburb of Atlanta, Georgia. With 222 episodes, it’s the second-longest running US sitcom with an African-American cast (behind The Jeffersons).
Undercovers (NBC)
An action-comedy series that revolves around a husband and wife spy duo never really got off the ground. The peacock network has decided against ordering anymore episodes, effectively cancelling the TV show.
V (ABC) NEW

United States of Tara (Showtime) NEW
The ratings had been sliding for quite awhile so the cable channel decided not to order a fourth season.
The Whole Truth (ABC)
This legal series starring Rob Morrow and Maura Tierney had lousy premiere numbers and the ratings seemed to sink lower every week. It’s not known if the network will get around to airing all of the episodes.
Working Class (CMT)
The cable channel’s first sitcom had a great start but the ratings dropped too low for it to get renewed. The last episode aired on April 1st.

What do you think? Are there any shows on this list that you’ll particularly miss?
I loved Off The Map. I am totally sad that they cancelled it. They should definitely reconsider this one!!
rules of engagement has been on/off for how long now???it truly sucks,especially with david spade in it!!you dumb-ass execs need to watch some of the **** we watch,boring,boring boring t.v.!!!!!!i’d rather watch conjuction-junction,or gilligans island reruns!the crap they have on now is rediculous!!!bring back “**** MY dad SAYS”!!!!
I join with alot of others on here in saying OFF THE MAP was a great show and should
be reconsidered.
I will really miss Chicago Code. The acting was good along with the story line. It was one of the few shows I liked…..so many others should have been canceled.
I’m so upset that Off The Map has been canceled. 🙁
I am very sad to hear that Life Unexpected is going to be canceled. Some of these shows have been around for a while too and are now getting rid of them. Why is Family Guy, and American Dad still on? I can’t even stand those shows. I am getting Netflix and paying $8 and save $100 a month. There isn’t hardly anything worth watching on cable anymore except for them repeating the same old stuff all the time.
I will miss Human Target and the Good Guys the most.
Human Target was a great show and about to get better with the 3rd season. I rarely watch basic tv any more because of the crap they leave on and the good shows they cancel. Poor choice for cancellation if you ask me.
The best two series of the past season are: chase and off the map.
It was great to watch people improvise when trying to do a difficult job in remote places. It was wonderful not to have to
watch another stupid reality show that confirms that stupid insipid people can and will become famous for what? Being famous?
Get rid of the reality shows (except American Idol and Dancing with the Stars – they are contest shows). Give all the actors out of jobs (becase of reality crap)their jobs back. It is truly embarassing the reality crap on tv.
I really loved Off the Map. It was a great unique show versus this reality crap that is being shown or copies of copies of copies of existing shows.
i will miss smallville the most!! i loved tom wellings as superman will miss it so much
I will miss Off the Map… I love that show!!
I will definately miss Brothers and Sisters. It was my favorite. I will also miss Off The May. I liked that one also.
I will miss Brothers and Sisters the most. I loved that show. But really liked The Gates and Off The Map too.
I will miss Brothers and Sisters!
I really will miss hellcats… Just when it was getting super intriguing they decide to cancel it. I think its a dumb move personally. What about the spin off to criminal minds? I thought that was good too. Maybe before starting shows and getting ppl hooked on them the tv companies should have a better storyline planned out to make sure the ratings stay up. It really makes the companies look like they dont care about the fans…
