Hearfelt thanks and gratitude to Brian for keeping the Back To You forum alive, with his articles and lively discussion. Even before the show debuted, Brian was garnering interest and excitement by posting every article and news piece he could find.

It's not often that you see a Moderator TRULY care about a show, and put their heart and soul into their assigned forum. I often see absentee Moderators. Thanks Brian. You did your best. I know you're disheartened, as all the fans of the show are. Nobody can ever accuse you of not giving it your all, and I for one, APPRECIATE your efforts!



:tiphat: :thanks: :clap :mod: :yourock:

Thanks Janice, that truly means a lot to me. I really thought this show had a shot to revive the "old School" format of sitcoms. I guess I was wrong. I just wish it got support.

I swear, I'm about to cry right now. This is so sad! I completely owe my interest in this show to Brian - you are why I've become so involved in the show and this board. If it wasn't for you, I probably wouldn't have even watched to begin with. You were truly great on this board. It would be dead without you!

roseanne, thanks for your support. There are a few of you that believed in this show. I know some wanted to see it "tank" because of some bizarre reasoning, but you and a select few others kept coming here posting, watching and supporting a truly UNDERRATED sitcom. :)

I have never seen such an underrated sitcom in my life. I just wish there was something we could have done to spark more interest in this show. To me, it seemed like FOX wasn't totally behind this show. The timeslots, the cast changes, and now cancellation. It's a huge shame. I still won't give up hope, though. You never know what can happen between now and Wednesday.

BTW, you can call me Julie :D

I had pretty much given up on current sitcoms. For the first time in my life their really wasn't any that interested me. BTY really got me interested again and I owe finding this show to Brian. Brian, if it wasn't for you I don't think I would have even started to watch the show. You peaked my interest long before the show even premiered. You kept this board alive...it's one of the few current sitcom boards that is really active and it's all because of you. I'm sorry that the show didn't quite make it but it wasn't for lack of effort on your part. We all owe you a great deal of thanks. :)

Ok Julie ;)

I will say this, it ain't May 15th yet. They still have to announce their fall sked. You never know! As the great Al Michaels once chimed, "Do you believe in miracles?" YES!

Thanks Sonny! I will probably never again put as much effort into another sitcom forum as I did this one.

Then again, if Patricia gets another sitcom deal....:lol:

I can't wait to see their fall sked. They'll probably have the final 4 episodes airing somewhere on Saturday nights, with Til Death airing at 9pm after AI-LOL

If we can really do something great between now and May 15th, though will be great. A miracle is all we need right now :wizard:

Brian, thank you for posting descriptions of the episodes on the board. Thanks for the information you have provided. Hats off to you. :thumbsup: This is a nice board. I know I've just recently come across the BTY board.

Great. I had asked on the other thread abt a petition. Let's cross our fingers and hope this gets revived. FOX did this to Family Guy. Other networks listened when petitions were made, letters were written, etc.

Thanks guys, but there is still work to be done. We need as many signatures as possible. I wish we could think of a smart campaign like Jericho or Reaper did, but I am drawing a blank.

Of course, we could all dress like mascots and march over to FOX's offices. :lol:

An ad campaign of somesort is a great idea, though. We gotta do something that will catch FOX's attention. It should be something having to do with the newsroom . . .

Thank you Brian for all the work you've done with this board. All the articles, interviews, photos, etc. are appreciated. If I had more moderators that were as active and dedicated as you on the boards, it would be fantastic.

Even if the show is not coming back, we will preserve this board in its entirety. It wouldn't be so easy to move the million or so threads that were created. :) Don't give up hope yet.
