The Cape: Petition and Ways to Help Save the NBC Series

Heroes, a show about modern-day superheroes, lasted four seasons on NBC on Monday nights. Unfortunately it doesn’t look like the new hero series called The Cape will last nearly as long. It’s tanking in the ratings, had its episode order cut, and is sure to be cancelled.

What can you do? Remember, the ideal scenario for NBC is for many millions of people to watch the show on their television sets, while it’s being broadcast. Unfortunately, ratings are put together based on a sampling of viewers. If you’re a “Nielsen household,” your viewing is being counted. If not, it’s not.

However, if you like The Cape and want to see it continue, there are a few things you can do to help.

  1. If you’re a Nielsen family, watch the show whenever it’s on. If not, watch it on NBC.com or purchase episodes online so your viewing will be directly counted. Encourage others to watch the show. You might know a Nielsen family and not be aware of it.
  1. Talk about the show with others; at school, at work, online, or wherever. Creating a buzz about a show that you’re invested in gets other people interested and might help bring former viewers back.
  1. Sign the petition below and encourage others to do the same.
  1. Write to the network. Be respectful. Everyone responds better to courtesy. Tell them how much you enjoy the show, that you’ve signed the petition, and that you want to see it continue. You can use this form or, even better, write via snail-mail to: Mr. Bob Greenblatt, Chairman, NBC, 3000 W. Alameda, Burbank, CA 91523, RE: The Cape
  1. Take note of the products that are advertised during the show. Contact the advertisers and tell them that you appreciate their sponsoring the show and that you buy their products (if you do).

To NBC, BermanBraun, and Universal Media Studios:

We, the undersigned, enjoy watching The Cape on the NBC network. This TV show is a great superhero action series that is unique and fun to watch.

Please find a way to keep The Cape on the air. We are devoted viewers who will continue to watch the program, encourage others to do the same, and will support the series’ advertisers as well. Please keep it going, either on NBC or, if necessary, on another NBC-related channel. If that’s not possible, please find a way to wrap up the story.

Thank you for your consideration.

    This was a brilliant show bring it back

    This show deserves a grand finish, and not bad for a television show, but with Arrow, The Flash and Shield agents running around on our screens; why not The Cape. It makes perfect sense to have such a character on the tube, and plus you would get more views on the fact he's neither Marvel nor DC so get on it, The Cape's fans await!!

    The cape is one of the best shows I've ever seen,please finish it!!!

    Great show. Love comics and superhero shows/movies/whatever. I saw a lot of potential in this show and I agree that it should at least get a second round/chance on Netflix or other online medium. After all Marvel has recently announced that there may be a new lineup of marvel hero shows on netlix, Hulu plus or other

    I can't believe they just canceled The Cape after 10 episodes and all of us that we're watching we're left hanging! Shame on you for doing that to your viewers!
  • Mark QuesenberryCountry: USA2014-02-19 20:15:50
    I for one am appalled that you would cancel a quality show such as this and keep some of the garbage you choose to air. Because of the junk you air I haven't actually watch NBC in years, just so you know.

    Just saw the cape on tv, please make more episodes. I want to know the real ending end why Max is training him!
  • ShadowCountry: USA 2013-12-11 14:21:22
    You guys should put a season two of the cape the ending sucks it left me wanting more and plus it doesn't solve anything in the end of the cape everything was still haywire he didn't get his family and chess is still at large. Anyways you guys should consider putting it on I know it's old but sheesh give us one more at least

    Just watched the full season on Netflix. What a great show. Great cast, awesome acting and special effects. Even if regular broadcast networks don't ever give this a second glance (even you, SyFy), Netflix should think about putting out another season like they did for Arrested Development. I also vote for a Cape movie!!!!!!

  • Vincent TarantiniCountry: United States2013-03-31 12:44:47
    I wish that would bring back the show but at the least they should make a movie out of it because leaving the show the way they did was just plain wrong, the show deserves an ending!!
