it is a great show and i really hate that they cancelled it especially since it left a cliffhanger and i HATE cliffhangers. BP is a great show. I think the main reason was because of ratings. so i REALLY hope that another network will pick up BP.

reply

It wasn't that good of a show and the acting sucked! Plus, too many cliches, no wonder it was cancelled.

reply

I totally agree! It was a great show...I HATE cliffhangers too! BP rocks!! To other networks out there, if you're paying attention, pick this show up...IT'S A WINNER!!!

reply

It was because isn´t that great. If it were, the series´d last long.

ok then...it was called Beautiful People because when one of the main characters went to a new school, she became friends with people who were tormented by the so-called "Beautiful People". maybe if you actually watched the show you would know that :)

reply

No, they did not cancel it.

reply

Yes, they did cancel "Beautiful People"

reply

if they canceled it then why does it still say 2005-???? on the cover here? hmmmm? riddle me that people!

reply

Grr.. Just when I start liking it.. and getting into it.. and feeling like I cant wait a whole week for the next episode.. they cancel it..
what the heck.. it was an awesome show!

reply

I wondered why BP ended so fast. It seemed like the seasoned just started.

reply

go to www.daphnezuniga.net and click on ask daphne the first question is about the BP cancellation. yes it is cancelled. in my opinion it's because that abc family channel doesn't receive enough viewers like the WB or ABC itself.

hope that helps. for more info, visit www.tv.com

Daphne completed the second season of Beautiful People. She can next be seen in the movie, Obsession, premiering July 17th on Lifetime. Also, watch for her this Christmas in an ABC Family movie.

that was from the site you pasted above. Does not seem to be canceled from what that says.

I take that back this is what it said further on.

Question #1:


Hey Daphne

Beautiful People was such an amazing show, and you did a really awesome job playing Lynn. I was just wondering, in light of the cancellation, is there anything we as fans can do to help perhaps have this show re-aired or picked up by another network? I've known shows to be re-aired due to "popular demand," could we perhaps make something like this happen? If not, the show was amazing and I would have loved to see a second season! Thanks for the read and have a happy day.

Sincerely
Kali



Dear Kali,

Thank you for asking about fans bringing the show back! And thanks for your kind words about the show. I have spoken to the Network heads, they loved the show but have made their decision, I really don't think it will change, but HEY! Why not go to the ABC Family site and write! Can't hurt. I wish I could resurrect Lynn, and the girls too. (I'm seeing them on Friday, I'll tell them about your letter and others).

Take care!
Daphne

I'm so mad its cancelled!!! i mean, you have to admit it was pretty cheesy and all, but isnt that why we all loved it?? I mean i started watching it as a joke to my friends bc the previews all seemed so cheesy and bad, but then i really got into it, and even my friends into it too. we'd look forward to it, and now its been ripped away. I like the idea of the petition though, maybe itll help. im definitely gonna get the box set though!

I can't believe they cancelled it! I just came here to see when it was coming back. Gosh, who does ABC think they are? NBC? Cancelling any show that is even remotely good? Idiots.

OKay. Humm , my brother works at the ABC and he told me that the only way to save the show is.......




....by taking a picture of yourself having sex with your own mother and then send it to ABC network.... or maybe.....





...take a picture with something that reminds the SHOW to show the network that you really care about the show. I'm not really sure cause he called me on his cellphone and there was too much noise. I'd do the opition number 2. Thats what the fans of Roswell did to save Roswell, they sent thousands of TABASCO SAUCE to The WB cause the ALIENS of Roswell liked TABASCO SAUCE. Let's try to save this show. Many shows were saved by fans , such as Roswell and Touched By An Angel and.... humm .... i guess only these two. But don't give up.

Yes this is really stupid.. I was wondering exactly why they took BP off and not Wildfire, that was my first clue something was wrong.

2- Yes its cheesy but that's exactly what i loved about it. Me and my mates would get together every week at nine to watch in my room and we'd laugh and joke and shout at the TV when the characters would do stupid things (like when Gideon through the picture in the trash) we were like "oh.. stupid girl.. dont through that beautiful portrait cuz she's a dumb idiot!" stuff like that...

It was fun to make fun of it and enjoy it at the same time. I think it was one of their better shows. I enjoy it much more then Falcon Beach. Beautiful People just has something about it.

I was just about to buy the DVD when i came on here to make sure it had all the episodes that they aired? Does any one know for sure?

..But now, I wonder if its even worth buying the DVD....but maybe if the dvd would sell well it would tell ABC family exactly how many ppl love the show... but that'll never work.

The only think that will make any effort is NOT to EMAIL them, but to write them a snail mail letter.

*Edit*
Oh I just found this...even more proof its been cancelled:


Is beautiful people coming back for another season in fall of 06???? Everyone is dying to know! I'm the biggest fan of the show......I absolutely love it!

Miranda Sanchez



Dear Miranda,
Many have asked if Beautiful People is coming back and I am sad to say that is is not coming back in the fall. I absolutely loved doing this show, I loved the girls (in real life too), and I really loved giving life to Ms. Lynn Kerr, mother, woman and designer extraordinaire. I haven't loved playing a role and being a part of a project this much for a long time.

However, this is the biz. Watch my Lifetime movie in July for a different taste. It's a suspense. Then in July I am shooting a movie for ABC Family that will air this Christmas! Thanks for watching Beautiful People, it meant a lot to have fans like you, who liked it as much as we did.

All the best,
Daphne


However... it sayd not coming back in the fall.. what about spring?..if it were gone for good couldn't she just say that It is not coming back. *end of story*..

but i'm trying to be hopeful...too bad its not working

reply

I really wish they would bring the show back. Themaster is right though. Roswell fans sent thousands of tabasco sauce to the WB because it was a quirk in the show. I don't know exactly what you could do with BP but there must be something.
