Socran: I take it not too many examples will qualify to be listed in the main article, huh? Man, this entire trope feels like it was written specifically for me and Super Robot Taisen, as far as American releases go. If only I had known to spread the word back when it actually mattered how many copies they sold...
Pro-Mole: Include Shaman King in the list and see if the number qualifies. When I realized the series just wouldn't have a real ending, I flipped on the inside...
Isn't this just Too Good to Last?
Doug S. Machina: It's not the troper missing Firefly, but their mother. Thank you, you've made a happy man feel old. I'll add Father Ted to this list.
Idle Dandy: Can't this be expanded to include any feeling of loss when a series ends? Like how certain tropers may have cried at the end of Revenge of the Sith because it was over?
Airof Mystery: The trilogy wasn't really over...well, kind of...but more "now the circle is complete".
Revolos55: I saw this referred to in a metaquote on Live Journal, where someone, having just watched the pilot of Firefly, said that they had just fallen in love with a dead show, and they were therefore a "necrofilmiac".
Elanorea: Does the Sailor Moon example really fit? I mean, as sad as it might be that it's not being aired anymore, it's by no means an unfinished or short-lived series. It lasted far longer than the author originally intended, and came to a definite conclusion after 200 episodes.
