And thank you for the info, travelover. Very interesting indeed. We have been looking over the numbers as well over at the Campaign. Methinks CBS is expecting too much from its new shows, and neglecting to look at what is happening with some of its older shows. As well as trends altogether.[/quote]
In this day and age, with all the competition, the powers that be shouldn't be so quick to cancel new shows - sometimes a little nuturing can work wonders. And what's the "cutoff" for the number of viewers for a show to be cancelled? Just what are their expectations. Sometimes they can be a bit GREEDY!
I absolutely CANNOT take the addition of another new reality show!

I have only just begun to watch EH and I love it. I cannot understand why they would even contemplate not carrying on with it. It is not just because RS is in it (and a grand job he does too) but I love the story lines, the intrigue...it reminds me of an American Inspector Morse and I adored that series. I suppose all they go by is viewer numbers and if the numbers are not good, then they drop stuff but I think in this case, EH has to be given a chance to grow because it is on of those programmes that takes time to settle in and for people to get their heads around. Maybe the science puts people off? It is a series that will gather it's own particular niche audience and will be very successful but it needs to be given time to build. If the powers that be can't see that, then it is ultimately going to be their loss and real shame that we as an audience lose a series that is wholly so enjoyable.

I saw your post over at the CBS forums....thank you for coming and helping out. By the way, this post would make yet another good Feedback message.

Luvinx and Ladies, I just wanted to let you know that I too have sent my requests to CBS for the renewal of EH. In fact, I e-mailed them back in November to tell them how much my sister and I and our friends liked the show. I included my opinion that we here in the US were very fortunate to have a talent such as Mr. Sewell's grace our TVs each week. Since then I've sent two more e-mail messages reiterating my feelings why the show should be renewed, if that is Rufus's desire also. You've done a super job in rallying support of this cause so close to our hearts, ... and our minds, of course. We must all think positive and pray !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! P.S. I guess we should include a prayer for world peace, the end of wars and famine and to the end of the recession so that we don't sound too shallow

Thank you so much for your support, spice. Head over there as often as you can in the next few days to give some more Feedback. I also just found this email address to Nina Tassler. nina.tassler@cbs.com Everyone please send off an email to her as quickly as you can; you never know, it could make the difference. And I very much agree that we have a lot more to pray for.

I have sent emails to both of the addresses luvinx, plus two more messages on feedback, one request and one comment....I won't stop until the deadline. I am totally hooked on EH, I have been watching 3 episodes per day, I can't get enough of it....it's so addictive!!!
I suppose the question has to be asked..is it something that Rufus still wants to do as mentioned above? I guess we can't know the answer to that but I suppose if asked, he will. Rufus must know of our support and everyone elses out there....hey Rufus, if you read this, EH is a fantastic show, a breath of fresh air where these kind of series are concerned. The subject matter is food for the mind, the best and most worthwhile kind of TV show that you could be a part of...but then again, you already know all of that!!!
Love Elliexx
