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’ve been waiting for the next episode for months! I told my friends and family about the series but apparently before they had a chance to see it, it was axed! I’m pretty dissappointed that I won’t see the next installments. It must have been bad timing for the show to start because it was fun and exciting to watch.
Taye Diggs is now on THe Practice. and Adam Baldwin is on CHuck. I dont know that either one has the time.
I dont know if they filmed all the episodes. but I would love to see the conclusion…DVD is the Best most cost effective method.
Even after all these months since cancellation, the five people in my family still hanker to see the remaining episodes/denoument. DVD at least, PLEASE!
I have been waiting and waiting for Day Break to return, as a mid-season replacement, or whatever you wnat to call it, just bring it back. It was such an intriguing series, and then it just STOPPED! Hello, some of us were really enjoying it and waiting to see what happened. At least show us the final episodes that will tie up the loose ends. Please…
Hey, any word regarding possible release of DVDs of Daybreak? This week I wanted to watch the entire series online again, only to find it gone….. I’d purchase the DVD set in a heartbeat. Hopefully ABC will consider doing that????
This show is incredible, please bring back this show.
i really liked this show and i was hoping that it would coming back. this is news to me. well please bring me back the show or at least let me know where i can see the remaining show.
Good Show Sad it was canceled.
I got so addicted to this show! ABC doesnt know when it has a good thing. Another better network should pick up the show.
I loved this show!
Please release the show online or on DVD!!!
Please bring this show back. It was one of the most entertaining and original shows I’ve seen in a LONG time.
I loved this show and I was wondering where it was so I looked it up five minutes ago and I have to say I’m really angry that this show is gone. America needs more intelligent shows like Day Break. Since you guys seem to be in the business of taking away all the good shows I guess next you will take Lost off the air…
I can’t believe this show had poor ratings. Perhaps putting it on a different day or in a different time slot would do better. I can’t find it on the internet to watch the other episodes. BRING IT BACK!!!!
ABC was trippin’, letting this television series fall by the waste side… Not only should this series go to DVD, but you should think about bringing it back.
Plain and simple. Someone made a big mistake in cancelling Day Break.
We are all pissed!!!
