I'm going to stop watching Fox. You take good shows off the air before giving them a chance, or you don't renew shows that have a definite following. Last Year it was John Doe, now it's Wonderfalls. What's wrong with you people? You better leave Tru calling alone. PLEASE!!!!
I am amazed at the response to this petition. While I have been reading some of these entries the numbers have jumped from 3900 to 4000 in just minutes. So what does that tell you FOX???? We want this show back on the air!!!!!
It's smart, fun, touching, and not like other TV out there. Read my review at www.411mania.com!! I love it!!! Fox is dumb for having no hope in it......
Year after year I watch trashy reality shows get picked up over quality televison. And I have had it. Tv is my getaway, it's how I unwind and it's getting to the point where it's unenjoyable. Even My TIVO never has anything good to watch, because shows of quality are never on. As a fan of Wonderfalls I knew there was no way it would get picked up for next year. Funny, creative, smart, edgy and thoughtful, this is exactly the type of shows networks have a BAD habit of giving up on. yeah, 3 episodes in the ratings aren't great. But what do you expect? You put it on Fridays when much of the target audience is out winding down their week, then you put it up against CSI and The apprentice, apparently looking for an excuse to kill it. Why not Sunday's at like 8 pm. Not much is on then, or Even saturdays. If there was even one quality original show on Saturday nights, it would be sure to gain a quick following. Those of us with families are usually sitting around after the kids go to bed, flipping through endless lists of total crap on Saturday nights. Yes, trashy reality TV brings in money because of ratings from the average undereducated american, myself included. But there is an entire audience out there for shows like wonderfalls. When are the networks going to realize that are voice may be fewer, but it is indeed stronger and deserves to be recognized.
This is absolutely one of the best shows I have ever seen in my life, let alone this year. And to the President of Fox, Peter Chernin, you have no clue what good television is.
Wonderfalls is a clever, well-written, unique show. It was not even given a chance to develop an audience. Don't kill off quality shows in favor of more crass reality.
it's un underdog show and that's what makes it great. It's a show that may not have the ratings of friends or CSI but with time will surelly build a good audience, like the xfiles or friends did. You are betting long term here and it's gonna pay off. I myself am 20 years old and this show is reflecting the dilemnas and life choices that young adult are now facing!! Thanks!
My brother: "No, I won't watch Wonderfalls, I'll just wait for the DVD, I'm sure FOX'll cancel it if it's any good."
I, on the other hand, am an idiot for even bothering. FOX is managed by untrained chimps.
I have identified with this show like no other I've ever seen. Dare to be original, not derivative. Let Wonderfalls find its audience in time instead of constantly going for instant ratings gratification. Quality like this is well worth it.
This show should be given a chance. Finally, something clever, funny and thought provoking with amazing creative ideas. Please don't contribute to the dumbing of America by canceling this show for good.
"Wonderfalls is a refreshing break from the unoriginal reality shows and boring old sit-coms currently cramming the primetime schedule. It's ridiculous that shows like Wonderfalls and Still Life aren't given the chance they deserve.
When will you actually give a show a fighting chance.. you aired the o.c. before the fall season.. why can't you try and at least give the show a decent timeslot and not try and kill the show. If you start airing the show before the fall & mid season hullaballo then maybe maybe you'll have amazing raitings!!
Yes, I can understand why FOX would rather run another stupid and horrible reality television "product" in place of this fine show. Its simple $$. But consider, the viewing public won't buy crap like 'Forever Eden' on DVD, but there are plenty of rabid fans like me willing to plunk down hard dollars for the privilege. Wake up FOX.
This makes THREE shows that I've liked that Fox has treated like garbage and then cancelled. We couldn't save Futurama, we couldn't save Firefly, but maybe we can get Wonderfalls moved to a new net.
I am sorely disappointed Fox cancelled the intelligent, funny, and creative new show "Wonderfalls" without giving it much a chance. With all the mindless drivel on TV these days, it was a welcome oasis. Rest assured, after Firefly and Wonderfalls biting the dust before their time, I will find something better to do with the 1.5 hours a week I used to waste on American Idol. I can only imagine Cheers getting started on Fox ... and everyone talking about how great those 1st 2 episodes were before it got cancelled.
why oh why do all the good shows get cancelled? I'm ready to stop watching Fox on Friday nights completely. Moving Wonderfalls to an even worse time slot on Thursday sealed its fate. Please save this show!!!!
I missed the last episode because it got moved to Thursday night. Now I find out it was the LAST episode. So disappointed. Also plan to find me a wax lion! Hope the show finds another network that will give it a chance!
It gets worse every year, networks are far too quick to axe a show that doesn't top the ratings within the first few episodes. They refuse to give a slice of hope to anything innovative, imaginative and intelligent. Go ahead Fox, play it safe and continue to air more shows that condone and reward greed, vanity and spiteful backstabbing behavior. I dare you to reconsider your decision to cancel "Wonderfalls"
and actually provide quality entertainment to the dwindling population of viewers who have good taste and active brain cells.
NOO!!! This show cannot be canceled! It is by far one of the smartest comedies on television right now. I don't watch much TV, but this show I make time to watch. Don't cancel it!
I love the sardonic, witty and educated humor that I have found with Wonderfalls. I cannot imagine cancelling a show that allows for Intelligent Observation for the world (at large or small). Please reconsider. I will continue to spread the word! I DO NOT watch reality TV. I only watch Tru Calling and Wonderfalls on FOX. Lose these shows...lose intelligent viewers with purchasing power. Reality TV is a one night stand and does not sell product. Give us a chance - Show you're smarter than the rest! Keep Wonderfalls on the air and keep intelligent viewing alive!
Bad FOX, bad FOX! You have a history of putting some great shows forth, and then doing absolutely nothing to support and sell these shows. Every time FOX cancels a good show, I swear I won't watch anymore. Maybe I actually won't if Wonderfalls goes away. I'm tired of getting hooked on great shows only to have them dropped and me left hanging.
When TV is full of reality show crap comprised of people making fools of themselves for cash, we **NEED** a show that's funny and well done!!
I also dont get why FOX doesn't want to air what they've all ready PAID FOR! Seems like a waste of money AND time to me!! Maybe if they wasted less money we wouldn't need to be faced with crap ads.
PS I want one of those wax lions! Gimme Gimme Gimme :)
I absolutely love this show! It's clever, well-written, and the characters are so likeable! A show like this has so much more substance and long-term potential than any one of the hundreds of reality shows and spinoffs we are plagued with these days. Please keep this show available for those of us demanding intelligent and entertaining tv.
Best show on TV in a long time and it doesn't even get a decent try. I told everyone I knew to watch it. You gave it death slot and you should all be ashmaed of yourselves. Quality wins out eventually it just takes a little patience.
Wondefalls is such a great show and I dont understand how you can cancel something that so many people liked! Most shows take a season or two to build up a lot of fans. If you are going to give up on a show that so many people liked why bother even having shows? This show was brilliant and so many people likd it! How can you remove something that people are interested in? Please, rethink removing Wonderfalls.
I agree with everyone else that has said "We want less of these idiotic Reality shows and more shows like Wonderfalls" Maybe the counts from the Neilson boxes are as screwed up as the voting for American Idol is. Listen to us...REAL people .... not Neilson boxes. Who in the heck has those anyway. I've never known anyone that has had one. We Want Wonderfalls back!!!!!!!!!! Maybe if you wouldn't have kept switching the night it was aired more people would have tuned in. I know I missed it once because you changed the night on me and I didn't know it. And it seems like TV Guide had it listed as airing on nights that it didn't. I know I was confused as to when the show was on. You have to give it another chance. It's not Fair to the show or to us viewers!!!!!
THis is an awesome show! Witty and clever and because it is on friday nights, not a lot of people get to see it, but once they do they will love it like ther rest of us!!
You must bring back Wonderfalls! It is one of the smartest, most enjoyable shows I have seen in many years and it is a tragedy that you have taken it away.
Once again a damn good show is given a horrible time slot and surprise, surprise, it doesn't do well. FOX is making a HUGE mistake cancelling this show!!
