Hello everyone, and welcome back to Best of the Trope! Big thanks to Johnbobb for running the previous game, and for letting me take over. I can only hope I'll do as good a job as him. Since the topic is now under new management, I'll call my run Season 2.
The same rules as before apply, but for any newcomers, or simply as a reminder for any veterans, here are the rules. Each day, I will post a trope from TV Tropes, and each poster can name up to three examples of that trope. Whichever nomination gets the most mentions wins! Posters may also name as many Honourable Mentions as they like, but they are purely optional and will not count towards the running score. You may look at the TV Tropes page for that day's trope for examples, but you do not have to pick all your examples from the page. You can nominate whatever examples you like, as long as they qualify for the trope. Each trope will last around 24 hours before the next one goes up. Posters may also nominate any tropes they wish to see come up during the series. This is optional, and you don't have to do it every day, or at all. Just bear in mind that I may close trope nominations temporarily if the list gets too long. Tropes will be randomly selected from the list each day, except for some occasions where I will pick a thematically appropriate trope that may or may not be on the list, like today for example. Here's the list of previous tropes, so if you wish to nominate some tropes, check on here that it wasn't previously done in Season 1. http://board8.wikia.com/wiki/Best_of_the_Trope Here is the list of tropes we had left over from the end of Season 1. Thanks again to Johnbobb for saving this for me.

Today's trope is Un-Canceled.
That rarest of all television phenomena. A show that has been condemned to the fiery pits of cancellation is resurrected by the same executives who sought to destroy it... or different executives who want to right the wrongs of the previous ones. Most times, this means a show is picked up by a cable channel or other network and put back into production. Very rarely, a show will be resurrected by the same network. The biggest causes are either a campaign by fans (along with a compliant creator), or high sales in other media, such as DVD. If the show is not popular enough to warrant a whole new series but an ending is in demand by fans, then a TV movie, miniseries, or a new season may be ordered to Wrap It Up. TL,DR: This one's pretty self-explanatory really. A show is cancelled, and later brought back, either by the same network, or a different one. I'm sure you can see why this was a fitting trope for today.

Personally I'd hesitate to count X-Files or even Twin Peaks which had a much shorter original run. But I wouldn't call it technically wrong either.

Family Guy Futurama As much as I love Firefly and Serenity, I'm not gonna vote for it because the series itself was certainly never revived. --- "One toot on this whistle will take you to a far away land." -Toad, SMB3 ... Copied to Clipboard!
