This is my FAVorite show!!!! On ANY night! Dont cncel! It is artistic genius! One of the few great shows on TV left. It is fun, witty, entertaining, quirky, and has great characters and writing. It should defitely renew for anothe rseason.
Please please please I beg do not cancel this show. This is the only show I have found I actually like in years other than Dawson’s creek years ago. This is the only show I look forward to watching on a daily basis.
I love this show much, it is the best thing since Gilmore Girls and it so nice to watch something without some supernatural storyline. Please don’t cancel it. I also love storyline and it funny to watch.
Please don’t cancel Hart of Dixie. It is one of the best shows The CW. Besides, We don’t even know the name Zoe and Wade’s baby!!
Love the show, the actors and actresses are great. It is so nice to see a show that is not riddled with cussing and violence. This show should not be canceled.
Please don’t cancel this show!!!!!!!! I have been in love with every season!!!! one of the best shows on TV ….I will be heart broken if this show does not return
Please don’t end it I love the Zoe and wade love story!!!!! And they never told the baby’s name ughhhhh!!!!
Changing the date to Friday nights did not help this show at all. I love this show but I am never home Friday’s at 8pm to catch it live. That said – if you look at it in that way the ratings did not drop that significantly. Most shows drop in ratings when moved to Friday nights.

Please please please please dont cancel hart of Dixie. I don’t watch much TV but I just loveeeeee this show!! It makes me happy, and kind of distracts from the world. In a good way! It makes me wanna live in a small community. I already live down south and its so relatable! I’m in Louisiana and its too perfect!!
Please do not cancel Hart of Dixie. It is the only show on the CW worth watching. The rest are dark or science fiction. I love Blue Bell and its citizens. Please keep Hart of Dixie on. You may have higher ratings if you put it on a different night. Most people are not home on Friday nights at 8pm.
I love this show and look forward every week.
