 		 Jericho
Write CBS and boycot them and their advertisers.
I have written CBS and told them what I think of them for cancelling Jericho, and I want all of you to do the same. Let them know you won't watch their network or patronize their sponsors. Jericho was praised by the critics and treated like a step-child by the network. Greed was the factor in cancelling our show. Screw CBS!

I hear you, and I understand your unhappiness with CBS after the cancellation of Jericho. But the bottom line is, no amount of protesting will bring back Jericho again, per CBS. There's really no reason to boycott them- they picked up the second season after the nuts campaign, which I feel a lot of networks would have just ignored.

Jericho was cancelled due to lack of viewership- and honestly, in my eyes, if I'm CBS and I get this huge uprising to bring back a show, only to have it pull in its worst ratings ever, I don't think I could continue it either. It's a great show, but the viewers just weren't there. For now, I guess all we can do is hope another network(I'm looking at you, SciFi) will pick up a new season. It'd be a perfect fit there.

 		Exactly, and SciFi must feel the same way because they started airing the reruns during this season. I just don't know why they have passed on Jericho.

 		DON'T EXPECT PLANTERS TO HELP, HERE WAS THEIR RESPONSE
DON'T EXPECT KRAFT FOODS TO HELP,
AFTER WE SENT THOUSANDS OF PLANTERS PEANUTS TO CBS, THIS IS THE RESPONSE I GOT;

Hi Pauline,

Thanks for thinking highly enough of our company to ask us to participate in your efforts to keep your favorite television show on air. While we appreciate you including Planters in your efforts, we must decline your request.

Unfortunately, we receive such a large volume of requests just like yours that we can't possibly honor them all.

We hope you understand our decision. We appreciate you thinking of us and wish you the very best in your efforts.

NOW YOU TELL ME, WHAT BETTER ADVERTISING WAS THERE FOR THIS COMPANY THAN WHAT WE DID AND FOR THEM TO SAY THEY RECIEVE SUCH A LARGE VOLUME OF REQUESTS, THAT THEY CAN'T POSSIBLY HONOR THEM ALL. I DON'T THINK SO! I'D LIKE TO KNOW WHAT THEY DID HONOR.

 		Don't do all-caps, it detracts from the argument. This isn't a generic Jericho board, the cancellation and possible continuation could have an impact on the ARG but this isn't for active protest.
