S60 has quickly become the favourite show for my wife and I to watch together. It's smart, funny and I've grown to care about what happens to the character. America needs this show and the rest of the world (I'm South African) needs Americans to see this show.
I love this show - it's brilliantly clever with vivid characters and is even better than West Wing. It is serious about comedy and funny at the same time. It's genius, the pinnacle of television. Please don't fuck this up.
One of the best casts, best rhythm, and most enjoyable shows on TV. I realize it may be a little quick for the midwest, but PLEASE...keep 60 on the air! Sometimes LA and NY SHOULD count more.
Please keep the show on TV, Sorkin is brilliant and you know it NBC. Move it to a different time slot and promote it more! Dont cancel it, my life will be over.
NBC do the right thing for once and keep this show on the air. We as a society need more quality shows like this. No more garbage cookie cutter shows please! Keep the quality!
Studio 60 gives all of us with brains something to watch. Leave the reality shows for the brain-dead. Studio 60, like Sports Night and West Wing before it, is brilliantly written & has a talented ensemble cast. There are less & less intelligent shows left on televsion. Please don't cancel Studio 60.
This is one of the better shows that have come onto the air in recent years. It's refreshing to see good and interesting writing still exists instead of the mindless and mindnumbing reality crap that is reality television.
With so much on TV that is ordinary or downright bad, Studio 60 shines like a beacon. It's beautifully-conceived, well-scripted and well... transcendent! Keep it or lose your soul!
Why can't we have at least one program for people who actually use their brain. The show is well written and well acted. I'm tired of having to check my mind at the door to watch network TV and I'll be watching a lot less if Studio 60 is cancelled.
With all the crappy reality television we are bobmbarded with everyday, fans of truly great writing and interesting story lines deserve to have Sunset Strip continue! Keep this show! Please!
studio 60 should be given a chance. people have stopped watching tv altogether because all there is is teen "dramas", reality shows, and cop shows. this show will bring them back. and i agree with petitioner 4144. Crossing jordan has been hanging on with it fingertips and yet it has been on the air for years. have a little patience for studio 60.
Please do not cancel Studio 60. My husband and I enjoy watching this show together on Monday nights. If NBC advertised it as much as they do there other shows, they could gain more viewers easily.
Studio 60 is the only show I will even sit through commercials to watch. Otherwise, I only watch shows through my DVR when I can skip the stupid commercials. Studio 60 is brilliant and fun. Please keep it.
Crossing Jordan has sucked ass since its inception (both in terms of quality and ratings) and you want to Shit-Can a genuinely great show? Honor Brandon Tartakoff's memory and give it a chance.
Lets call it what it is - Thomas Schlamme has destroyed yet another NBC Show. He destroyed West Wing, Third Watch and a number of other programs. Anything this man touches...dies.
There are a great deal of people in the audience that are intelligent, and really don't care who gets kicked off the island. Studio 60, brings the backround insite to television production that the West Wing brought to our Government. We need more of these shows... not less.
This is the best-written/wittiest hour on network television, and one of the very few reasons I tune in/DVR.
NBC - please keep in mind there is a whole audience of intelligent viewers looking for something other than inane reality programming to watch. The audience of this show is looking for something smarter than game-show drivel. This is the only show I have been telling friends to watch. Most are busy professionals, but Studio 60 is well worth the time spent. Please give it a second season chance. You might be pleasantly surprised by the results/response.
When counting viewers, please keep in mind that a lot of us record the show and watch it later -- and yes, we even still see at least some of the commercials then! Please keep this show; it informs us about a world most of us never see but which influences everyone who watches TV, and it's so much better than a lot of junk that's offered.
Why do all the smart shows get canceled and the crap shows get to stay? Don't let the mindless drones of America dictate what we watch. There are more smart people than you think.
I love this show! It is one of only 2 shows that I watch on network TV. I am so sick of reality TV and I don't enjoy shows like Heroes, Lost, Survivor, 24 etc that seem to be attracting the younger audiences. There needs to be something for us 40-somethings to watch!
Dudes...come ON. Sorkin is a GENIUS! We DVR this show, screw your antiquated Nielsen Ratings system. The 'live plus 7' generation will not be ignored...
Don't cancel this wonderful show. It is awsome, funny, and intelliget. Plus, you really care about the characters and want to see what happens to them.
Sherri and Steve (#4103)...I remember Sports Night! It was fantastic. Aaron Sorkin IS a genius. NBC would do best to NOT cancel anymore emotionally and intellectually stimulating programs.
...everything that has been of talent and brainy substance has gotten the boot. Sad commentary about our society. I also agree with #4109, Kinta.
Everyone who has signed this petition has something to say about this program. NBC
leave Studio 60 on the air NBC. Step up and lead the way to more cerebral TV.
We NEED shows like Studio 60!
Until this past fall, I didn't watch network TV--my time was spent on the computer or on satellite channels. I saw a preview of this show and liked the premise. I like the characters, the writing is top-notch...if SNL were this good I'd be watching it too! You've committed to the complete season--PLEASE honor that commitment. If I can't have a second season, at least I'll buy the DVD for the first season to watch again and again.
Please don't cancle the show... It's one of the few shows that is great and isn't reality tv. The humor is awesome!! Maybe if you moved the time slot to 8 it would get more people watching it. Part of why the ratings aren't so high is because it's on late on a Monday night. It's a great show that shouldn't be canceled!
PLEASE keep this show on TV. It's the only appointment television that I have anymore. I tell everyone of my friends about it. I've even got people watching who didn't get into West Wing. DO NOT CANCEL!!!
NBC: Please renew Studio 60 for a second season and bring it back from hiatus at your first opportunity!We love this show and need for you to retain it in your line up -whenever, we'll be there!!
Please, please, please don't get rid of ONE of the very few intelligent TV shows on the air. There are many people who enjoy it. some of us have brains anad want more than pap.
PLEEEEEEASE bring it back!!!! This is the best show on TV! It's smart, funny (at least once every episode I have to rewind over and over again to laught my butt off!), thought-provoking (or argument-provoking if you believe my husband, who also loves the show!), and realistaclly romantic! If I were to win Powerball (of course, I have to start playing), I would hire Aaron Sorkin and the cast to make the show just for me!!
Save intelligent TV! Studio 60 is one of the most quick-witted, insightfully written and superbly acted series on commercial airways. There are plenty of crime scene, lawyers in battle, stories etc on TV with violence, shoot 'em up bloody scenarios depicting the dark side of our society oh yes and those ridiculous so called reality programs that we REALLY need to hold on to that which takes us away from all that CRAP.
Please continue with the astute Studio 60. DO NOT CANCEL! Thank you.
Come on NBC, you've finally got a winning lineup (we all know you've been in a slump since Friends left). You may not want to loss the consumer base that you've ONLY started to build back up. Keep Studio 60!
I love this show and religiously record it each week! How can you cancel a show that actually had great dialogue and acting? Please relocate it to a spot where it can find a greater audience.
Must See TV has transferred to Monday nights - but only if Heroes and Studio 60 stay as a pair. I will NOT watch the Black Donnellys for this reason. NBC is nuts if they fail to air the remaining shows, and renew it for next season. WHY won't networks give shows a chance anymore...??? Remember Sports Night? Aaron Sorkin is a genius.
I not only watch, I support the show by buying each episode on Itunes each weak. I encourage a boycot of "The Black Donnellys" replacement show in support of a return of Studio 60.
Please do not cancel Studio 60! It's just getting started and I believe that the fan base will continue to grow. It is the one show that gracefully combines skillful writing and quality acting. I anxiously await each episode and would be devastated if it were cancelled.
Finslly we have a literate, adult show that is not geared to the lowest common denominator. NBC has one of very few quality shows here and it would be a great loss if it were cancelled.
The show is one of the few intelligent pieces on tv. It is not a crime scene analysis, lawyer show, or some make believe fool-for-15 minutes show. While the writing has been up and down, mainly up, and intelligent discussions.
