I have probably forgotten a few and this isn't even considering the older series I have obtained and watched as well as various series I only gave one or two episodes before discarding.

Actually I'm quite disturbed by how big this list is. I intend to watch considerably less next season. It may well be a good thing so many shows got canceled.
