I would send a letter if it would help, however, with the dismal ratings that it received on ABC I doubt that it will see another season. I hope I am wrong, this show was really good.

This is a Canadian production for CTV that ABC bought but didn't pay to develop, so I don't really understand why the sets were being torn down. It could have still played in Canada and elsewhere, with online episodes available to us poor schnooks in the States. So: did CTV cancel as well, or did the production company simply figure that CTV and foreign syndication alone, without ABC, wouldn't cover the cost of making more episodes?? I've no idea.

To me, watching Defying Gravity is like watching a show that's part really good drama, part Apollo 13, part PBS Nova/Discovery channel, with some sci-fi mystery and a NASA science procedural thrown in for good measure. I really can't compare it in whole to anything else I've ever seen, but I love it. Makes me wonder why it isn't on HBO where it would have more than a fighting chance.

And yeah, I'd say it's time not just to rally the troops but also to point out to ABC that it did a piss-poor job of scheduling and promoting this show in the first place and that it can easily afford to put it back on during weeknight prime time in place of ABC's early fall failures, such as the insipid Eastwick. For that matter, I'd rather watch Defying Gravity than any of the new medical shows, any network "reality" show, OR any 10 sitcoms you can name. I haven't been this annoyed since TNT canceled Crusade, the Babylon 5 spin-off because they figured its audience wasn't anything like the rest of TNT's audience. Really? Bringing new viewers to TNT was such a bad idea??? Bet they'd kill to have those viewers **now**, now that they've discovered drama again.

It was a great show, I hope they make it back.

We could try the same thing Wheddonites (Joss Whedon fans) did with Dollhouse; buy the whole season DVD massively and they got one more season.

Fox is going to cancel it (or at least they are mistreating it) but they got one more season.

The serie didn't even reach Spain (here sci-fi fans don't see the TV, they use torrent or web streams) but I'm gonna buy the DVD, even if I have to pay the dispatch from Canada.
