canceled + renewed TV shows, ratings - TV Series Finale

Worst Week: Petition to Save CBS’ Bad Luck TV Show

Worst WeekPoor Sam Briggs (Kyle Bornheimer). He just can’t catch a break. He tries to make a good impression on the family of his fiancé, Melanie (Erinn Hayes), but everything seems to go wrong at every turn. Unfortunately, Sam’s TV show, Worst Week, isn’t having much better luck.

Worst Week was applauded by several critics but a large percentage of CBS’ Monday night audience doesn’t agree. Though the sitcom’s viewership looks pretty good on its own, the CBS execs aren’t too pleased. Worst Week consistently loses over a third of the audience of its lead-in, Two and a Half Men. The Charlie Sheen sitcom isn’t everyone’s cup of tea but it is, by far, the most popular sitcom in primetime and the network doesn’t like to see a large percentage of its audience change the channel when Worst Week begins.

Is Worst Week worth saving? Do you want to see Sam’s misadventures continue? If so, you can do a couple things to help save it.

• Tell your friends and family members to tune in and watch, preferably via their TV sets. If that’s not possible, encourage them to watch online. Maybe one of them is secretly a “Nielsen family” or knows one.
   
• Write to the network and let them know how you feel. Keep it civil. Everyone responds best to courtesy.
   
• Sign the petition below and let the network execs know you’ve signed it. Spread the word and ask others to do the same.
   
If you like it, help poor Sam’s show out. Hasn’t he suffered enough?



To: CBS Paramount Network Television, Hat Trick Productions, and Universal Media Studios

We, the undersigned, have greatly enjoyed the new CBS TV show, Worst Week. We are upset that the series may be cancelled. We ask that you continue to produce and air the show so that it will have a chance at growing a larger audience — a win-win situation for devoted viewers and the network.

If necessary, we ask that you find a new timeslot or network for the show. There are over eight million viewers who await each new episode of Sam’s misadventures.

Thank you for your consideration.

    Please bring back Worst Week with as many of the original cast members as possible. My wife and I were practically falling off the couch because we laughed so hard. It was sad to see it end. And it didn't even have an ending.

    I never knew the show was cancelled, I have been waiting FOREVER with DVR ready in case I missed an episode - I just saw online it's never coming back and I'm so sad - I think the TV execs need to quit liquid lunches, get the heck out of LA for awhile and see what the real audiences want for a change - your "study groups" are a bunch of boneheads - I LOVE THIS SHOW
  • Donny Country: USA2011-01-08 10:29:40

    PLEASE BRING THE FUNNIEST SHOW EVER BACK! I have purchased the DVD and watch it over and over again (the ONLY show that I would ever consider watching as a rerun). I also show it as entertainment to my family and friends and they ROAR! WHY are we continuing to be bombarded with all of the reality and dance shows, which are SOOOOO BORING? The television networks continue to add to the DUMBING DOWN of society. PLEASE BRING BACK THIS HILARIOUS SHOW WITH THE PERFECT COMEDIC ENSEMBLE! Diane

    I loved this show. If I don't get to see "The epidural episode" again I will never be the same. It was one of the best new shows on tv. Please give it another chance !!!
  • cathyCountry: usa2010-10-16 12:51:53
    Please bring back Worst Week- We neen more humorous shows. An we also need more non-controversial shows.
  • KrisCountry: USA2010-10-11 09:15:23
    Worst Week was so refreshing! I've never seen a sitcom quite like it. Please bring it back. I don't think I've ever laughed so hard watching a sit-com. I don't watch too many shows regularly anymore. This one is definitely a keeper. Don't compare it to a show like Two and a Half Men - that's been on for years! And it's quite different. You did not, in my opinion, give it a chance. Give it time for people to catch - Americans are BUSY!!!
  • DeeCountry: usa2010-09-27 12:56:44
    You must please bring this fantastic show back to us. All the same actors must come back again. America needs the laughter to help people heal from such a bad economy. Please help America laugh again!!!
