Only 495 signatures? As much as you like the show, you should just give up. Some "Save Show" petitions have had over 1 million signatures, and it still did nothing. The only way to save it is for it to have more viewers, which it most likely wont.

R.jsheedy · 01-07-2010, 11:17 PM

500 signatures!!!!!!! with already about 200 or so joined the facebook group the guy created. And this is just about 20 hours he said. i e-mailed the guy and gaved him this site and brians name since he did such a GREAT JOB With bty!!! Well, before he threw in the towell.

As tvbythenumbers says:

As certain as the sun rising in the morning, doomed television shows engender futile “Save Our Show” campaigns.

Now, ABC’s Better Off Ted has one, and, of course, a useless online petition too.

Ted has averaged just a 1.2 adults 18-49 rating in episodes during its regular timeslot since it returned to ABC in December, the worst ratings average for any scripted show on the network.

Shows with those ratings are not saved by fan campaigns, their only hope is for divine intervention.

I just finished watching the episode "Change We Can't Believe In" on abc.com to see why some people love the show so much, and I still don't know why! The show is awful, and it deserves the low ratings.

ABC doesn't believe in the show or they'd air it during their Wednesday night comedy lineup since they need another sitcom.

Cordy Has A Few New Idea's For The Campain I'm Going To Pass Along To You!!!

(DIRECTLY FROM THE WEBSITE... www.savebetteroffted.com)

DONATIONS RECEIVED SO FAR: $85.62!
We are now accepting donations through Paypal, which we will use to buy custom keychains with the logo: "Veridian dynamics. Wednesdays. Better." We will then send these keychains to Stephen McPherson(President of ABC). This is very similar to the method used by the fans of "Friday Night Lights". After raising enough funds, they sent 500 mini footballs to the president of NBC, as well as DVD's of the show to troops overseas. We can do this! Our goal is now $300.00, which will be enough for 500 keychains! We will be updating our tally throughout the days, once we begin to receive the donations!
Just go to paypal.com, create an account, and send the donations to savetedpay@gmail.com.

We need to prove we want it on Wednesdays!
This Wednesday, 1/13/10, in between The Middle and Modern family in your respective timezone, go to ABC.com and WATCH BETTER OFF TED! This will show them that we want to watch Better Off ted at that time! (Also it won't hurt to be watching them often up to that time and after either), Also there is now a facebook event for this time! RSVP to let us get an idea of how many people we have!

There is also the idea of sending in coffee creamer (WICH COMES FROM THE RUNNING GAG OF LINDA ALWAYS STEALING THE COFFEE CREAMER), which may get more notice than a Veridian logo, but will cost more, so feel free to do this as well, but maybe also slip in the logo.

The Petition is now up to 3,670 signutures And it has only been up for 4 DAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

One of our favorite shows! So funny. ABC is obviously pushing this as sometimes it's on twice a week.
