I support this petition. It's really too bad that the TV suits need to have all Reality, Law or Cop shows and no room for anything original. We have brains, suits! Do you hear us??? We need variety, some spice in our TV life!
I support this petition.
Love Monkey was funny, thoughtful and clever. Instead of stupid shows that get laughs from making people look bad, let's watch a heartfelt drama about a guy trying to figure out life.
I support this petition. I think this show is smart and funny and great. It definitely should not be on CBS though. It is definitely a cable show and would do much better. Who watches regular TV anymore?
....NOTHING ABOUT NEW EPISODES!
'Love Monkey' Finds New Home on VH1
Wednesday March 29 7:49 PM ET
The short-lived CBS series "Love Monkey" has found new life on VH1. At least temporarily.
The cable channel will air all eight hourlong episodes of the show beginning next month, a network spokeswoman said Wednesday.
No new episodes have been ordered.
The dramatic comedy, which looks at life and love through the eyes of a cynical, single, 30-something music scout, premiered on CBS in January. The network ordered eight episodes, but the series was scrapped after three.
VH1 will air the three previously seen shows back-to-back on April 11, starting at 7 p.m. EDT. The remaining five installments will air weekly on Tuesdays at 9 p.m. beginning April 18.
"Love Monkey," based on Kyle Smith's 2004 book of the same name, stars Tom Cavanagh as protagonist Tom Farrell. Jason Priestly, Larenz Tate and Christopher Wiehl also star.
Wow, figure this... a great, heart-felt show with awesome writing and a superb cast gets canned. It's not the network to blame, it's the lame everyman out there who would rather watch CSI and think that's great art. It's all about titillation now rather than true art.
BAD NEWS:
Tom Cavanaugh Goes Back to CBS
Tom Cavanaugh has been cast as the lead in the CBS' Rich Appel-produced comedy pilot My Ex-Life , from 20th Century Fox TV. Variety says the decision to cast Cavanaugh makes it even less likely the network will pick up Love Monkey , which was pulled just a few weeks after it premiered.

I support this petition!!! As a Music & TV Executive I was glad to see a show based on what we see...Im disappointed to see that its being canceled!
Keep it going!
Man, you've gotta be kidding this is a Male Sex in the City without the cheap tramps and nudity. Plus Ivana Milevic(sp?) is HOT! On top of the really good characters they have great music throughout the show. Support with good television that aren't about killing, autopsies, and forensics!
I support this petition.
I don't think the show was being well. I wouldn't have seen a promo for it at all if Lorenz Tate hadn't been on Direct Effect on MTV, even then I didn't know what day or channel the show came on. The show has a good concept. All the actors involved are great, and deserve a chance shine.
It's ironic we finaly get a brand new different show that brings us hope and make us relate to it,and what do they di ..they take it off the air ..isn't it about time we get a decent show and yet get to keep it . please guys bring love monkey back for the sake of great tv shows
I support this petition. Tom Cavanaugh is a really good friend of mine and a good actor, love monkey is a great show that is getting actors in NY work Which we need unlike all these reality shows that are out.
I support this petition because the show was truly original. Tuesday night TV is so boring without Love Monkey, it was the only show worth watching on Tuesdays.
I support this petition. In the brief opportunity we had to see it, I was convinced it was the best-written show currently on television. (I wish that were a harder decision. More and more television network executives are the best friends the print media have -- there is just less and less worth watching, and more and more that is actively revolting for its infantile taste level.
I support this petition.
WAIT hold the phone is this KELLY RIPA the one that TOM CAVANAGH thought was OVERLY HOT I MEAN he would pant, squirm and MELT when she interviewed him?????????
I support this petition. CBS enough with the gratuitous shots of dead people and rotting corpses. Bring back Love Monkey and let us enjoy an hour in front of the TV again!
I support this petition. Love Monkey was the best new show on tv, and actually made me excited to watch television. Please bring it back! Word of mouth will spread.
I support this petition. Its been weeks and I MISS this show!! It was well written, witty, and unlike any other show out there! I hail from Canada, and canadians LOVE this show! Bring it back!
I support this petition with all my heart! I loved this show like no other and 3eps while enough to allow me to fall utterly in love with the characters and premise was not enough to allow America to do the same! Give it the chance it deserves to build an audience!
