I thought the Black Donnelly's was a pretty good show that was cancelled too early, mostly because Olivia Wilde was gorgeous in that series.
Also a lot of people are putting on shows that weren't cancelled too early. If the show ran 5+ seasons that is usually enough in my mind. Many of those shows weren't even cancelled, but just creatively stopped production. Look at Breaking Bad for example, could they probably have given is a couple more seasons? Probably, but they wouldn't be giving us the same quality for those two seasons, so they thought it would be best to end it while it's still on top. Then look at shows like The X-Files, 24, and even The Sopranos, all of them seemingly ran for too long and there was a drastic decline in quality in the last few seasons. Each of them may have been better served ending things a couple seasons earlier when they were still on top.
One that should have ran longer, and has only been mentioned once was Rome. Now that's a show that definitely was cancelled too early, but really only because it cost so much to film each episode
I'd say it's better than Game of Thrones after two seasons, but that's just me of course.
