Series That We Never Read

The post title, "Series That We Never Read," is ambiguous. Is "Read" past or present tense? Does it rhyme with "red" or with "reed"? It could be either.

Andrea and I watched an on-line "director's cut" of a film that ended with a preview of a film that was never made and therefore is non-canonical within that film series/movieverse! Think of all the "might-have-been"s. 

I would like to see Poul Anderson's Technic History continued indefinitely. This can happen only in a hypothetical hereafter where Anderson continues to write. (The probability of this is only just above zero.)
