ESPN Has Bettter Judgment than Showtime
Keep “Dead Like Me” On The Air Petition — This is the online petition to keep a show, Dead Like Me, on the air, er, on cable at least. This is a great dark comedy that everyone in my family enjoys watching for it’s odd poignancy. It’s quite creative and one of the best dark humor shows on TV. The characters are particularly excellent. With a cast headed by the remarkable Mandy Patinkin it’s worth watching for him alone. Or at least it was worth watching since they are taking it off the air. This is typical of Showtime which has had no luck competing with HBO for original programming since they cannot tell good from bad. This happens to be good. So they are killing it. The petition makes us all feel better, but it may be hopeless. Please sign.
WHY on earth would you cancel this show???? I cannot believe that a show that actually has enetertainment values will not be on for viewing. I guess it is more import for ShowTime to give programs that are about nudity, same sex relationships, soft core porn, than any show that might actually have a plot.
This cast of characters bring a unique quality of performace I have not seen in many, many years. If this show is NOT brought back for all the fans, then I have not other choice than to stop watching ShowTime forever
uhhh, vicki, did you go to the petitions online

This is a very large mistake. Showtime needs to rethink this move. They are throwing away a show as good as Stargate SG-1 in its own right. What are they thinking. Look at Stargate SG-1. Its even got a spin off Stargate Atlantis ! ! ! Dead Like Me is truely that well written and that well acted. SHOWTIME PEOPLE. PLEASE RECONSIDER THIS RASH ACT ! ! !
Showtime and cable will die from my TV if this show does not come back ( it is the only reason for my TV in the first place )
