I wish to second Twig's vote for Brimstone, made even worse by 1) cancelling it just as it got interesting and 2) the existance of Reaper, a series which badly uses the same motifs. I miss Zeke Stone.
I would like to nominate Strange (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0312209/), a show so well written that at various points it convinced me and my Mum that our wonderful John Strange could in fact be just as deluded and psychotic as the main antagonist though he was even though demons and such exist. As for the antagonist, the irreplacable Ian Richardson was spectacular as Canon Black who was either a good or bad man, or a demon, or possibly Asmoth himself.
Also the Dubik and the Banshee episodes, they were wonderfully creepy.
Damn it, BBC, you promised us a second series.
Firefly at least got a film and the comics, even if it's being drawn by the same people who draw the Buffy and Angel comics who have all the artistic abilities of highly evolved worms. Yes, I really do hate the art style in those comics that much.
