The Black Donnellys has everything that a viewer wants to see and more. I don't even get cable, but I will buy and stream the Black Donnellys until this show gets back on the air. Good actors, good acting, good writing, good stories, good plots, good drama, good humor, and a genius idea add up to a truly awesome show. Maybe if NBC advertised more on ANY show, they wouldn't have to worry about cancelling shows midseason.
I was astonished to hear that such a clever show was going to be yanked from network television. But I guess that you guys here in the states don't really know good programmes if they'd dance naked in front of you with a tea cosy for a hat.
The Black Donnellys is a great show and there is no good reason for NBC to cancel it. I believe that The Black Donnellys is (in my opinion) the best show on tv.
I do not watch network TV; however, this show captured my interest with its intelligence and daring and multiple story lines. It deserves a better chance. Please bring it back.
I consider the Black Donnellys to be one of the best new shows of the season. Please do not cancel a show I have grown to love and anxiously await every Monday night.
WHAT????!!!!! This is the most refreshing and unique show that has been on t.v. in a long time. My whole family looks forward to it all week because of the suspense, humor, and good acting. Maybe if the show was on at an early time. And...GIVE IT MORE TIME!!!
The black donnellys is a fantastic show, creative, cute, romantic, funny and action packed. Me and my sister love this show, don't cancel it please! put it at a different time slot! 10 O clock is DEATH HOUR! People have to go to work/school in the morning!
This is by FAR the best show on television, let alone the best show NBC has had in years. It was just on a bad night because all of the hardcore 24 and Prison Break fans. To cancel it is complete bullshit and the reason NBC is suffering, cancel Leno and Conan next while you are at it.
Are you kidding me? This show obviously belongs on HBO or some other network that will appreciate it. I don't watch much network TV -this show gave me a reason.
The best show on television. Finally something gritty and entertaining and not dumbed down. Another show that was too smart, but was a great show. I lost any respect I had for NBC with this poor decision.
You know what NBC I commend you. No other network has had one of the best shows and a show that would be able to go on for years and just throw it away! I hope FX or some other network picks it up. And I hope that The Black Donnellys will get better ratings from that network just so that you can feel as moronic as we all think you are! The Black Donnellys rock and you better not end it. You'll be sorry, trust me.
you wanted a show for the twentysome and now you give up. You let that crapy lottery show go on all summer but you give on the BD now. Please bring it back.
This is the first show that I've actually fought for and I'll be damned if I make it easy for TBD's to be canceled. And from the looks of this petition and the message boards everyone feels the same way!
Absolutely love this show.
I had visions of it developping into one of the great shows that lasts for years and never runs out of steam, there were so many opennings for it to run from.
Absolute shocker :(
This was of the best shows on television. Please bring it back so we can finish the story. The cast is amazing and the story gets better and better every week. This is why I don't like to get involved in TV series because when they get pulled your like WTF? They cancel it and put some crap up like Deal or No Deal with baldy or some other reality tv crap. Bring the Donnellys back please.
don't cancel this show! american television has gotten so dumb its embarrassing and here is an intelligent show that of course American Television wants to cancel; this show will pick up more viewers. its an incredible show with great acting and a real script. I can't believe its not on HBO ..its that good.
This show has one of the most original plots I have ever seen, everything is fresh and new everytime it comes on...no to often seen teen dramas here...A GREAT SHOW LET IT STAY!!!!
There is only 3-4 good shows on TV and the Black Donnellys is #1!!
It is the closest thing to movie cinematography on TV! The closest thing to art on television! And now it's gone... so sad.
you better fuckin support this......
the job, the knights of prosperity and now the black donnellys wtf... i mean do u notice a common thread with them, irish-american,blue collar,working-class people...what the fuck does hollyweird have against us...they take off shows that r smartly written and prominently portrays working class people and doesnt talk down to us(unlike american idol and wedding what the fuck whatever its called)im so damned tired of shows written about people that normal people dont really encounter in life...how many doctor or lawyer shows do we need..why does hollywood like to congratulate themselves so much on being themselves that a show about the majority of americans just doesnt cut it...well fuck them...hollywood is not the world,washington dc doesnt speak for every american, and the fuckin moon isnt made of cheese...so fuck off nbc!!!im throught with ya!!!i guess its back to my 1st loves now the written word and music(not clear channels version of it)blahhhhh!!!
NBC, come on now guys this show is great.. so much better than so much of the pathetic crap on tv... its the only show aside from Friday Night Lights that i actually look forward to watch every week!! PLEASE dont cancel it!
The Black Donnelly's can not be cancelled...there is nothing bad about it! Maby if NBC got rid of Deal or No Deal and put TBD at 9 it would be watched more! I love TBD please dont take it away.
This is one of the best shows I've seen in a long time and they want to replace it with some BS 'Wedding Crashers'?! NBC how about you stick with the something original like the Donnellys and not this stupid reality crap. Stop looking at an instant bottom line and work on marketing one of the best shows created in a very long time.
NBC- please dont cancel this show. i only watch three shows on your channel and this is one of them. this and heroes makes my monday night. SAVE THE BLACK DONNELLYS
Bravo NBC. Give yourselves another pat on the back for another stupidass move. The Real Wedding Crashers...ooo yea that's what I want to see. That's what's been missing from life. The Black Donnellys was too good for you NBC.
I loved The Black Donnellys because I'm Irish and it was great seeing an Irish Catholic family on tv again. I used to watch American Dreams util NBC (who seems to make stupid moves like they're going out of style)pulled that and didn't even give it a proper goodbye. Please save TBD!!!! Please someone pick it up!!!!
I have never petitioned for a show to be continued, but that is because this is the first show that has truly deserved it. The Black Donnelys was the best show on TV and doesnt deserve this abrupt ending, it is a great show and deserves the season being finished, if not picked up for another season as well.
Long time NBC watcher...i thought you had it with the donnellys...nothing but good comments from folks of whose opinions i respect. i think you're really making a poor move if you cancel this one...

Now who in their right mind would cancel a show with such good writing. That is just one of the few already classic lines from the wonderful show that is The Black Donnellys. NBC you don't know what you are doing!!
SAVE THE DONNELLYS!!!
AS A COUPLE WE ENJOY THE SHOW NO MATTER WHO IT IS RECOGNIZING.. THE FACT OF THE MATTER IS THIS SHOW IS AN ATTENTION GETTER, RARLY SEEN NOWADAYS!! NO SEX IS INVOLVED TO GET WATCHERS!! TEENS CAN WATCH WITH PARENTS!!!
You can NOT get rid of this show, it is a great show that just needs a little more time to catch some viewers, All of my friends and I love it and would hate to see it go
