Dear Mr. Ostroff, President of ABC Companies
I know you're very busy and probably won't read this but it doesn't hurt to try. I beg of you to bring Kyle XY back on the air. I know the rating before weren't very high and couldn't support the show but, I feel that this new generation will bring new veiwers a ton of people have tuned in and are now left hanging after season 3 HUGE cliffhanger. We want to know if Jessi and Kyle ever get together or if Amanda gets in the way. Do they stop Latnoc and Zzyxz from making pod children and finally get their freedom to live normal lives in the messed up world around then? I think that if you give the show a chance you'd be suprised how many people would tune into your show and how many of then would be familys. ABC is a family company, so please just consider the thought.

Sincerely,
Yvonne (A determinated fan)

I just watched Everwood again and cannot believe this show was not renewed for the 5th season. Everything in the series finale was rushed and I received no closure and am truly sad executives like Dawn Ostroff are so blind to such amazingly written and performed shows. I wish someone would have the courage to pick up Everwood and continue this amazing story, but alas, my wishes probably won’t come true.

What networks are doing these days to great shows is appalling. I, for one, am sick of all this reality crap that’s being shoveled into our homes by the truckload and have stopped watching TV as a result. Executives need to take their head out of their asses and think about something else besides money sometimes. This show could’ve have been bigger than 7th Heaven and, as long as they didn’t drag it out and push it to the point of ridiculousness (where 7th Heaven was taken to) it would have made the CW lots of money. It still is with many people anticipating the release of the 3rd and 4th seasons, myself included.

Ostroff: You failed Everwood.

I will miss the Everwood story. I wish it hadn’t ended.

Dawn Ostroff cancelled Reaper which was one of my favourite shows. I’ll happily point her towards a few tall buildings that I’d like to see her jump off.

Oh please, the current bunch of girly shows sucks. I’m not even a man and I agree with the OP. Nobody thought 7th Heaven was good? Really? I remember fondly watching it growing up in Asia and all the people I knew watched it and we’re not over-religious right wing fundie nutjobs in fact, I guess your nutjobs would think we’re heathens.

The current shows are terrible, full stop. With the exception of Supernatural I guess. There’s no meat to 90210 or Gossip Girl feeding further into the archetypes of snarky females. There’s a facade that tries to scream strong female characters but really, they fail terribly at providing that. Talk about brainless entertainment.

I’m sorry, but you sound like an ultraconservative closet case trying to bash the “girly” shows to show how manly you are, nobody thought 7th Heaven was good except over-religious right wing fundamental nutjobs, and we’re full of them here in the US. The acting was atrocious (Ashlee Simpson, case closed), and the writing was over the top cliche and predictable.

[...] Body Politic trailer. Remember how great The WB used to be with shows like Dawson’s Creek and Felicity? We need a show like that. Why does The CW only want to revamp old shows like 90210? [...]

I agree with you fully. I am really hoping we get to see Body Politic on The CW. That’s a show that has some of the heart the network (WB) used to have.

The only show I watch now on the CW is Supernatural. I did watch the first season of the Game, but then that show started to change. Seems like all they ever did was sit around drinking wine and complaining about men. As much as I used to like Smallville, that is a show that should have been canceled a few seasons ago. Not that Tom Welling is not lovely :]
Seems likes the CW could think of something better to do then to remake Melrose Place. Really…Melrose Place…really. As long as Dean & Sam are on Thursday nights, I will watch. Mmmm Dean.
