One great thing about YouTube is that it has a lot of full runs of short lived shows and I found that it had Nightmare Cafe which only lasted like 6 episodes and debuted in 92. Kind of an anthology series where two deceased people in a diner helped recently departed souls. Loved it as an 11 year old and added it to my list to rewatch. I also liked the concept of Terra Nova (future humans moving back to the Jurassic Era due to pollution) but I think it could be better told in a book form. No Ordinary Family was another along with M.A.N.T.I.S and The Police Academy tv series (yes I’m an unashamed fan of those movies). I guess I’ll throw in the 02 Twilight Zone. Was better than the garbage that Peele did.

I remember liking John Doe. One season, decent procedural with a background mystery. Guy wakes up with no memories of himself, but with all other knowledge - to the point of being a human Wikipedia (but accurate). Then solves crimes while looking for answers about himself with a secret society buzzing around. Halfway between The Pretender and a generic Sherlock show.
Ended on a cliffhanger, but the creators did an interview and gave up the bigger reveals that would have happened eventually.
Did you know Dominic Purcell used to have hair?
I saw the first episode of that and meant to watch more but got caught up with other stuff. I need to see if I can find it
