We've all felt the crushing defeat that follows the realization the show we want to watch isn't available to easily stream via Netflix, Amazon Prime, Hulu, etc. But with the news www.cwseed.com/shows/the-oc/" href="http://www.cwseed.com/shows/the-oc/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">CW Seed has quietly acquired all four seasons of The O.C. and abcfamily.go.com/shows/greek/episode-guide/season-01" href="http://abcfamily.go.com/shows/greek/episode-guide/season-01" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">ABC Family has released every single episode of Greek (and Bunheads!) for free via their website and app, we figured it was time to start campaigning for some other beloved series that haven't found their way to or are no longer on streaming sites. These are the shows we wish were instantly at our fingertips; Someone out there please do us the kind service of making it happen.

Battlestar Galactica

Ron Moore and David Eick's groundbreaking space odyssey was once available to stream via Netflix. Until one day it wasn't. Kind of like how humanity and the Twelve Colonies were all fine and dandy until the Cylons attacked. Why does the world want to deprive us the satisfaction of Starbuck punching a superior asshole or Gaius Baltar doing, well, anything? One of the greatest science fiction dramas in the history of television and it's not streaming anywhere? There must be some kind of way out of here something we can do about this.

Everwood

This one is particularly tough, as the heartwarming WB drama from Greg Berlanti has never been available to stream. If you want to relive the good old days of "Damn You, Berlanti!" you have to purchase the DVD sets. Why do the powers that be hate us so much? What do they have against the emotional drama of this small town? Or is this problem actually one of the fashion variety, because Ephram's insistence on layering a long-sleeved shirt under a short-sleeved t-shirt was never in style? Surely there's something Chris Pratt can do about this, right? 

Mr. Show

David Cross and Bob Odenkirk's genius sketch show aired on HBO, so why isn't the series on HBO GO? We can watch Entourage but not  Mr. Show? Cross and Odenkirk are reviving the spirit of Mr. Show with W/Bob and David on Netflix, so this seems like the perfect opportunity to bring Pit Pat, Jeepers Creepers Superstar, and The Story of Everest to the people! Do it, Netflix. 

Dawson's Creek

Apparently the emotional roller coater of Dawson and Joey's relationship can be found on Shomi in Canada, and every day on Pop in the U.S., but sometimes we just want to watch the best of Capeside or fall in love with Pacey Witter all over again when it's convenient for us, not whenever a TV network no one even knows exists decides to air it. Sometimes we want to relive the very best male and female friendship forged in Capeside—Jack and Jen, duh—without having to get up to change our well-worn DVDs. Come on, TV gods. You owe us this one.

NewsRadio

It pains me that I can't just queue up an episode of one of the most underrated comedies of the '90s and experience the joys of www.youtube.com/watch?v=GjNP3tiE6N8" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GjNP3tiE6N8" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">the Real Deal With Bill McNeil whenever I want. Who do I have to blame for this? Is this Matthew's fault? It's totally Matthew's fault. 

Rubicon

For a few minutes in 2014, AMC's complex conspiracy thriller was available on Amazon Prime... but then it was ripped away from us all over again. The series was ahead of its time and unfortunately wasn't renewed for Season 2, but there's an entire world out there just waiting to discover its twists and turns, and we're willing to bet there are at least 15 people out there who probably want to relive them. Come on, if Low Winter Sun can find a home on Netflix, surely someone out there can give us Rubicon.

Boy Meets World

Sure, reruns of the show are a daily occurrence on ABC Family and we have Girl Meets World on Netflix now, but that's hardly a replacement for the schemes of teenaged Shawn and Cory, the wise teachings of Plays With Squirrels Mr. Feeney, or that serial killer episode with Jennifer Love Hewitt (Fefferman). Yeah, we've seen every single episode at least five times and we can quote them back to you, but that's not really the point, is it? 

Happy Endings

A good friend once said it was probably for the best that Happy Endings isn't available to stream anywhere because they would probably just watch it continuously on a loop. To which I say: that sounds like a damn good way to live. 

The Mighty Boosh

Netflix is the American home for many "totally ace" and "wicked" British comedies, like The I.T. Crowd, Peep Show, and Black Books, but where's the love for British comedies about inept zookeepers who hang with bizarre creatures and go on fantastical journeys while singing psychedelic/hip-hop/soul songs? Most Yanks have never even seen www.youtube.com/watch?v=XxaP19pY1FI" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XxaP19pY1FI" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Old Gregg... can you imagine an existence where you didn't know who Old Gregg was? Our only guess is that when Netflix thought about getting this wackadoodle British The Flight of the Conchords with more mushrooms, it was too stoned from binging it to remember to sign the papers. 

What shows do you wish were streaming online but are not?
