How Can CBS Cancel Joan of Arcadia?


Send CBS an email postcard like the one above, a real letter, or maybe a pile of turds since that's all they really want to give us.

How can they cancel an Emmy winning show, without even giving the writers a chance to wrap up the story lines?

Ratings? Lesley Moonves at CBS said that the show rated poorly with the younger demographic. It did? On Friday Night at 8PM? Captain Reynaud and I are shocked! Shocked to find out that teenagers are not huddled around the television set at 8PM on a Friday! Don't tell me they're at a sock hop, writhing to the Devil's music? What next? Going to the movies on Saturday Night?

Hey, Moonves: How 'bout moving the show to a night kids are home and watching. before you just kill it? Show me that last program that started out at 8PM on a Friday, stayed there, and rated high with teenagers and young adults? Jeez - no wonder they think you guys are weasels...
