Did you miss Day Break on ABC last night? If so, you’re certainly not alone. We’ve been innundated with emails and traffic from people looking for details on what’s happened to the Taye Diggs series.
For those who don’t know, Day Break has been pulled from primetime by ABC after just six episodes due to low ratings. The on-going storyline is hardly resolved with seven unaired episodes left in the season. ABC has said they will post episodes (one per week) on their website but many people don’t have a powerful enough computer, can’t access the Internet long enough to watch, don’t have a fast Internet connection or, for many other reasons, simply can’t view the episodes. In short, millions of people who could have seen future episodes on free network television, will never see this excellent series — and we think the decision-makers should know.
So, we’re inviting you to sign a petition that asks the network and the production companies (Gross Entertainment and Touchstone Television) to release the series so that more people can see it — to return the series to network TV or at the least, to release it on DVD. With enough interest, there could even be a second season or a movie.
Let your friends, neighbors and co-workers know — anyone who misses Day Break — where they can find this petition. Naturally, the more names are collected, the better.
To sign the petition, fill out the “comments” box below. You only need to leave your name, city and state (or country). You may leave comments if you wish but please try to keep them civil. We’ll be monitoring the petition to ensure that it stays clean of spam or inappropriate comments. Let’s save Day Break!

To ABC, Gross Entertainment & Touchstone Television:
cc: Taye Diggs
We, the undersigned have enjoyed much of your programming, particularly the outstanding Day Break series. We have enjoyed the Taye Diggs series each week and are dismayed that it has been pulled from the primetime schedule.
We believe that the ratings have not accurately shown the show’s popularity for success. After just six episodes, we believe that Day Break was not given enough time to fully establish a potentially huge audience. Please remember that many very popular shows like MASH, 24 and Cheers were not immediate hits.
We understand that ABC is posting the remaining episodes online but, for a variety of reasons, millions of people are not able to see these episodes — resulting in lost viewership for you and disappointment and frustration for them.
We respectfully request that you return Day Break to network television and to consider continuing production of further episodes or even a film. At the very least, we ask that you make the existing episodes available to a wider audience via a DVD release.
Thank you in advance for your attention and consideration.
The Undersigned fans of Day Break
I saw the entire series on ABC’s website. This is one of the best shows I have ever seen. Please give us more.
I really absolutely enjoyed Daybreak. I would love to see the episodes that were to follow. Please bring the show back!
really disappointed when i get pulled into a show and it gets pulled off the air!
Look I’m hooked so finish the season. I mean you’ve already filmeded it.
I thought this show was well made and was well written. I like that somebody tried to do something different and I thought it worked.
If this show was reran on scifi, I know people would come to like it if they didn’t already.
I feel ABC was wrong to cancel this show on Nielson ratings alone and would hope that internet viewing and postings would help ABC not make the same mistake again with some future show they will air.
Finally a show that you can miss because life gets in the way, and still understand what you have missed!
Oh Please bring it back!
I found it by accident while watching lost. got hooked on it right away. its a cool show.
i’ve watched the whole series and am praying for a second now, this was an amazing story and is easily up there with the likes of 24 & Prison Break, please make more of this quality entertainment
I loved Daybreak and couldn’t wait for each new episode. I hate the way the networks just cancel a show like that that people are really interested in. I mean George Lopez and According to Jim are so lame. I won’t watch them but I would have watched Daybreak
I don’t know when tommorrows gonna come.
I want to know what is causing the day to repeat. Encore, Encore! Great show.
Why was Day Break canceled? I went to NYC for my Thanksgiving and when i came back it was gone.
I was so into it, had it all schedule on my DVR too. Then they promised that they would have the remaining season stream from ABC.com, but that was a lie.
Fantastic show bring back day break
This is a great show, and a second season needs to be made!
Day Break is by far the best show I have seen on TV in the past two years. It’s certainly better than Lost. Putting this show in such a rough time slot during such a busy time of year was the reason it failed. At the very least, ABC needs to produce a season 2 just for the Web.
