*sigh* Another season, another slew of petitions we all must sign. Thanks for the link. I'll tweet it, too!

It's likely people feel like I do - online petitions mean nothing. Even if through magic it got 100,000 signatures... what exactly does that say? We need at least a million of additional people watching the show. Spreading the word (like Gossi is doing by placing ads on sites; nice to have a person with the ability to do so among us), buying the DVD/Blu-ray, watching on Hulu and Fox on Demand... that stuff means something. Petitions do not. 1  out of 1 found this valuable. Do you?

I agree.
Networks don't base their decisions to keep or scratch a show on some online petitions signed by anonymous users and their nifty nicknames, regardless of how many they are. Multiple signatures don't even necessarily mean multiple different people. LOL

All that matters is the ratings, so advertising, word of mouth and drawing attention to get more people to watch is all that matters. It looks pretty hopeless right now, but not all is yet lost. 1  out of 1 found this valuable. Do you?

Yeah, as harsh as that is, it's pretty much true. I doubt fox is looking at the petition going "hm, Look at this web petition with a bunch of names on it, we need to renew this show"

Hm, I saw this http://whyiwatch.com/ site, it looks pretty nifty. possibly pass it around? I doubt it will help in one day though. Don't know what we could do to bring major attention to the show except Forum like crazy. Do you find this valuable?

Yeah, I hear ya. Fox won't care but for other fans to see a petition only getting 60 something signatures is kinda sad, maybe? For me anyway.

I've been playing the videos on hulu with the sound off. I wonder if that has any impact. I also bought episodes on itunes but up until yesterday I wasn't getting FOX after the digital conversion. So for sure I'm going to watch live tomorrow but I wonder if that's affected anything. Or maybe people just forgot about it or lost interest. I really haven't seen too many ads for the show. Do you find this valuable?

Just to let you people know, petitions do make a difference, we just have to build momentum for it. And, I only posted that petition on Wednesday night & linked to a few pages. Imagine if people kept linking, blogging, etc. about the petition, it would build momentum pretty quickly. 1  out of 1 found this valuable. Do you?

Petitions just aren't the thing.

That site SilentEchoes mentioned - whyiwatch.com - has been making huge rounds on twitter. Felicia Day tweeted about it. She has 1.5 million followers there and there were many re-tweets of her message from those followers. *That* makes an impact. Do you find this valuable?

They finally sped up whyiwatch.com. It was snails pace when it first launched. Do you find this valuable?

They fixed all of the bugs? Sweet. I love the propaganda image gallery; the shattered gray head is my favorite of the bunch, with the pictures of the brains in second place. Do you find this valuable?

Okay so the first season wasn't so hot, but I still hold high hopes for season 2. I watched every episode of season 1 and I must say there were a few good ones. Season 2 should blow our minds. I have faith in Joss Whedon and Eliza, so don't dissapoint, impress!!!
Go Dollhouse go!!! Do you find this valuable?

Seriously...Fox has got to stop doing this...

Just when I get to a new show and thoroughly love and enjoy it, they axe it... Do you find this valuable?
