So Many Cancelled TV Shows…
We could almost change the name of our website after the last week. If you haven’t heard, we’ve dubbed it “TV Devastation Week” – with SO MANY SHOWS being cancelled that perhaps don’t deserve it. We’ve seen quite a few hashtags floating around social media: #SaveLucifer #SaveTheExpanse #SaveTheExorist #RedeployTheBrave #SaveTimeless (Even though that one hasn’t been cancelled – yet?) and so many more.
By now everyone saw Brooklyn Nine-Nine get the axe – only to see it’s resurrection not long after by NBC. It doesn’t happen often, but we do sometimes see networks “step in” and gobble up a cancelled show – and like Timeless last year – sometimes a network has a change of heart.
What can you do?
Get loud. It’s the only way a network may see enough fan support to even consider “saving” a show. We’re throwing out two ways to let your voices be heard. The first: The poll below. We’ve listed a bunch of the “top” TV shows that were cancelled recently. Vote soon and have friends/family vote often. We’ll leave the vote up for a while, but in about 3 or 4 days we’ll start to notify the networks about the top 2 or 3 shows voted by fans. The second: Comment below WHY you voted the way you voted. What makes your show amazing and worth a second chance? (Recommendation: Don’t “bash” another show in favor of yours – that wouldn’t look very good.)
UPDATE May 16th: We’re going to end the poll sometime before Friday morning – Get your votes in now as to keep it fair, we’re not going to announce an “end time.” Good luck TV fans!
The Poll:
Vote here… You can vote on up to 3 shows maximum. (We know you have a lot of favorites, but sorry – 3 max!) Who will get to 50,000 votes first? 100,000? The winner of the poll will get a further write up with any and all renewal effort information included. We’ll also send the results directly to the networks that the respective “fandoms” are targeting.
**UPDATE May 20 7:30am**
We’re having to do a “manual recount” due to software used by a few people. This software allowed for multiple votes per second while keeping the database so “busy” it wouldn’t allow other votes to be counted.
We’re about half way through confirming all the votes. We will hopefully get them all done today and have our results article up within the next 24 hours. We apologize for the delay, but it’s important to us that we get this right.
**UPDATE May 21 11:09am**
All votes have been counted and confirmed. You can see the results by clicking here!
