http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/great8mandate/ We, the undersigned, are the viewers and fans of Gilmore Girls who, while we greatly enjoyed the seventh season finale, feel that it is not sufficient as a series finale. We were taken off-guard by the suddenness of the cancellation announcement and furthermore, many of us have read interviews various actors have given to the media about how upset they were about the abruptness of the season finale (no matter how much we may like it as a story) and agree with their sentiments that the seventh season finale should not be the series finale. However, we also recognize and respect the objectives, the sentiments and the exhaustion issues of the parties involved and how those factors influenced how the negotiations for an eighth season of Gilmore Girls collapsed. We do not pass judgment on any of the parties toward which this petition is directed. We request that The CW network and the necessary actors, Lauren Graham and Alexis Bledel, reconsider whatever differences they have and build a compromise that would return Gilmore Girls to the network’s schedule during the 2007-2008 television season. We urge that the show return in a way that addresses both the actors' concerns and the needs of the network, whether as a full season of 22 episodes returning in the fall or as a half-season of 13 episodes returning in the spring or as any other compromise that results in the continuation of the series to a more natural, less forced conclusion. Gilmore Girls is The CW’s #2 rated scripted series overall for the 2006-2007 season, the #2 rated series for its timeslot in its target demographics of young women, and a classic family series with tremendous continuing appeal to viewers of all generations. We believe such ongoing success calls for the show's return. We believe that the show should come back. Please bring back the Gilmore Girls for, at the very least, one more season.
