Then everyone, let's hope that the summer ratings are good enough to allow ABC to change its mind. I think that happened to Full House in its first season.

I think part of the reason it has slipped is because it's now on FRIDAYS, which are always low in ratings. Now that American Idol is ending their 4th season, 8 Simple Rules can transfer back to Tuesdays, where it did well enough, and probably that will be good enough for a 4th season.

I think it would be the greatest if we all watched the reruns. I know,some of us don't approve of the change this past season,but Cate has to move on sometime. Just think,if we continue to watch,ABC might just listen. Plus I don't think some of those proposed pilots will survive.

I would be happy enough if ABC knew they made a mistake, because something like that would eat at them all season.

I agree with you on everything. I still think e-mailing ABC might help as well, so I encourage everyone to do that. It's a long shot I know, but if everyone sticks together and shows ABC we really want this show back, they could change their mind, who knows? I think anything is possible with these networks.

I also agree with moving it to Fridays as a bad idea. Tuesday seemed to work just fine, and I think it needs to be back there. The reason many people didn't watch on Friday is because everyone goes out then, most people aren't home watching TV.
