Bring Back Bobby Nash Petition (9-1-1)

I took a few days off from being online, and I returned to find out that a 9-1-1 fan has created a petition to bring back Fire Captain Bobby Nash. It was started a week ago and here's the link if you would like to sign. So far, there is already over 10,000 signatures and counting.

Ever since Bobby was killed off in the 9-1-1 episode Lab Rats (season 8 episode 15), there has been a very big and swift backlash to the decision to kill off this popular and beloved character. Fans have been speaking out and voicing their opinions a lot such as on the 9-1-1 official Instagram account, IMDb, sending ABC Feedback and writing their opinions on Twitter, their own personal blogs and other various social media.

So, I'm not surprised that there has been a petition created. It still makes no sense storywise to kill off Bobby. It will be interesting to see how this petition will go. Also, 9-1-1 fans would like it if fans would sign the petition and share it so others can sign it as well.

The seventh season of Station 19 has been so good which makes it so frustrating that this show was cancelled. The writing, the storylines, the acting, eveything has been amazing. I really wish another network or streaming service would pick this show up. It's far too good to stay cancelled.

Here is the link to the Save Station petition and it's currently at over 86,000 signatures and counting. Please, sign and share it.

Video: Station 19: Celebrating Women's History Month

Happy Sunday!

With today being the last day of Women's History Month, I had to post this wonderful video of the actresses (Danielle Savre, Stefania Spampinato, Barrett Doss, Merle Dandridge and Jaina Ortiz) from the Station 19 TV series. They are giving very thoughtful responses about celebrating the women they work with, the women in the industry and the story they get to tell on Station 19.

I also wanted to post an update on the Save Station 19 petition, it currently has over 84,000 signatures. If you haven't already, please sign and share the petition.

Save Station 19 Campaign's Station 19 Season 7 Billboard

I forgot to post this earlier, the Save Station 19 fan campaign got another Station 19 billboard (this time in Los Angeles) to promote the show and the new time. According to the campaign, the billboard is located on is on Highland Ave (Highland and Lexington). If you live in L.A. or will be visiting make sure to check out the billboard, I believe it will be up for about a week.

I just love how the fans are trying so hard to save this show. As a reminder, the seventh season premieres on Thursday at 10:00 PM EST on ABC. And speaking of trying to save the show, I checked the petition and it's currently at over 80,000 signatures and counting.

Fandom is a beautiful thing. It brings people from all different communities together for a love of something so special. It’s an act of standing with each other.

Today’s billboard action symbolizes that for Station 19 and its upcoming seventh season. It’s a statement and a… pic.twitter.com/GzIaqjUvhL

Save Station 19 Campaign's Station 19 ad in USA Today

Happy Sunday!

I have been trying to keep an eye on the Save Station 19 fan campaign and I heard they placed an ad in the March 1-3 weekend edition of the USA Today newspaper. So I went out an bought a newspaper and the ad looks good. It not only promotes Station 19 and the new time but also the campaign. ABC continues to do the bare miminum of promoting the show along with the new time. Which is why the fans have not stopped doing everything they can to not only promote the show but to save it as well (which includes a petition).

With that said, here is the latest update on the petition as of now it has over 78,000 signatures and counting.

Entertainment News #46: Station 19 Billboard, Survival of the Thickest and The Fantastic Four

Happy Valentine's Day and here is some Entertainment News:

- The Save Station 19 fan campaign has another billboard in Time Square, this time to promote Station 19's seventh season (since ABC doesn't seem to want to do it) and the new time change. And according to the campaign, the billboard will be displayed on the 10th and 38th minutes of each hour throughout the day. I truly commend the fans for their tireless fight for the show. I really want another network or streaming service to pick up this show because there is a very loyal fan base already built in who would support the move.

Here's our first #SaveStation19 billboard! 🔥

The one-month countdown to season 7 is on, and while we wait, we fight for it not to be the last.

Remember to sign and share the petition, and tune in to Station 19 on March 14, at 10/9c!

Station 19 season 7 promo poster (fan made)

Since the seventh season of Station 19 is still barely being promoted by ABC, fans have continued to promote the show by creating their own promotional material. From videos to artwork to posters and more, the creativity of the fans seems limitless. And here is a really amazing poster that was created by Lois. It's very eye-catching with the raging fire and red thick billowing smoke.

And as a reminder, Station 19 will return Thursday, March 14th at 10:00 PM EST on ABC. And here is the link to the Save Station 19 petition.

I just wanted to post an update on the Our Flag Means Death petition, it currently has over 85,000 signatures and counting. This is another shows that fans are trying to save, I think the fan campaign is going pretty well. I do hope the show will be saved because there are many stories still to be told.

Station 19 Petition Update (+ a video that shows the Importance of the show)

I love watching and writing about TV shows and I know not every show will last. But it's just something so disheartening that Station 19 was cancelled. It's disappointing because as soon as it was announced that ABC had saved 9-1-1 after it was cancelled by FOX, I had a bad feeling that Station 19 would be cancelled. I was hoping I was wrong. As a big fan of both shows, I truly believe Station 19 didn't need to be cancelled because both shows could co-exist on the network. Especially since they are two very different shows that are certainly not interchangeable.

Which is why Station 19 fans are trying to save the show. With that said here is the latest update on the petition as of now it has over 71,000 signatures and counting. Fans are hoping that another network or streaming service will pick up the series.

This show is very important to a lot of fans and this beautifully well-made video by cam (Twitter: scrofantastic) really showcases why and how this show has impacted fans and viewers. I couldn't find the original video, but here is a repost of it from another Station 19 fan. If the video doesn't load please watch it on Twitter. This video truly is amazing. Station 19 is such a diverse show that doesn't shy away from focusing on social issues and how it not only impacts the lives of the characters but the world in general. Which is why it continues to frustrate me that ABC cancelled Station 19 while at the same time continues to have that transphobic actress on 9-1-1.

Just as a reminder, Station 19's seventh season will premiere on Wednesday, March 14 at the new time of 10:00 PM EST on ABC.

Trailer: Station 19 (season 7) and The Rookie (season 6)

Happy Thursday!

Yesterday, ABC released new trailers for some of the upcoming new seasons. I'm going to post the four trailers for the shows I'm interested in, starting with these two.

The first trailer is for Station 19 and the seventh season will premiere Thursday, March 14th at 10:00 PM EST on ABC. I'm still disappointed that the executives over at ABC decided to cancel such a good show. It has action, drama, humor and romance as well as dealing with social issues all while the characters are trying to do their jobs as first responders.

Ten episodes just doesn't feel like a enough to wrap up the stories and characters for this series. Which is why ever since the cancellation was announced, the fans have been trying to save the show. The fan campaign includes a petition which currently has over 70,000 signatures and counting. It would be wonderful if the show was saved because there are still more stories that can be told. With that said, I am looking forward to watching this sixth (and hope not final season).

As for the second trailer, it's for The Rookie and the sixth season will premiere Tuesday, February 20th at 9:00 PM EST on ABC. I'm so very much behind on watching this show but I thought this trailer for the upcoming sixth season looked pretty interesting. And maybe while I get caught up on the show, I'll also watch the sixth season.

The Rookie

Fandom: Save Station 19 Plane and Update on the Petition

I forgot to write that on Wednesday, the Save Station 19 campaign organizers commissioned a plane with a "Save Station 19" banner to fly over The Walt Disney Television Studios. That was so cool and even some of the cast and crew of Station 19 were outside taking pictures and video of the plane flying over. The fans who were in the area and saw the plane also posted pictures and video of it.

This is the second big effort this fan campaign has put in place, the first was a billboard during New Year's Eve in New York City. I hope this really shows ABC (and any other interested channels or streaming services) that the fans are serious in trying to save this show. As for the update on the petition, it currently has nearly 65,000 signatures with only few 100 signatures to go to reach that number.

They say the sky is the limit.. well not to #SaveStation19!

RENEW STATION 19

Our Flag Means Death Petition

Fandom has been really busy lately with so many fans trying to save their favorite shows that were cancelled. Some of the most recent fan campaigns are Station 19, Shadow and Bone, Warrior Nun and more. And now, you can add the recently cancelled Our Flag Means Death to the list. Fans of the pirate comedy show have created a petition that currently has over 33,000 signatures and counting.

Whether the shows get saved or not, I love that the fans are trying their best. Here's hoping another network or streaming service will save the shows, if their current owners won't.

Station 19 Official Promo

I can't believe it, ABC finally released an official promo for Station 19. Although it's mostly old scenes but hey it's still a new promo. I hope this is just the beginning of the show's seventh season finally getting promoted.

Edit: To add that so far this promo does not appear on ABC's official Instagram account. The network's Instagram account includes the promo for all the other shows but nothing for Station 19. Which is why it's disappointing that the promotion for the show is still being short-changed.

Not to be forgotten, fans are still trying to save the show. If you would like to sign the Station 19 petition, here's the link. So far, the petition has over 61,000 and counting signatures.

Why is Station 19's seventh season not being promoted? (+ Update on the Petition)

I'm a big fan of both 9-1-1 and Station 19 but it's very obvious that the executives at ABC are trying to pretend as if Station 19 doesn't exist. As of this moment, 9-1-1 received yet another promo for the upcoming seventh season while Station 19's seventh season has yet to receive one.

Both shows will return on Thursday, March 14 but so far only one show is getting promoted. This is very disappointing. And it's gotten to the place that Station 19 fans have started to create their own promotional material (I'll post some of them in other posts) in order to promote the show. They are doing all of that while also continuing to do whatever they can (include creating a petition) to save the show which was recently cancelled by ABC.

As for the Station 19 petition, it currently has over 57,000 signatures and counting. Please continue to sign and share the petition.

Happy Festivus! (+ The Airing of Grievances)

It's that time of the year when we celebrate Festivus which includes The Airing of Grievances. And some of mine are about TV:

1. Networks, Channels and Streaming Services doing zero or bare minimum to promote their shows. When the shows don't find an audience then they cancel them with the excuse the shows had low viewer numbers. But how can anyone watch a show they don't know exist.

2. I have an issue with those same Networks, Channels and Streaming Services also expecting fans and viewers to do free promotion for them. They're your shows, you're supposed to promote them. It's not the responsibility of the fans and viewers to do it. Fans create things about their favorite shows and characters because it's something they enjoy doing. They are not part of your Marketing team and it's not their job to promote your shows.

3. Showrunners and Writers going out of their way to ruin a show because fans and viewers can guess what's happening. And fans and viewers figuring out storylines isn't a bad thing it just means viewers are paying attention to what's happening in the show. I also notice Showrunners and Writers ignoring fans and viewers when they would like a favorite non canon couple to go canon. And then get mad at fans and viewers because they don't like the relationships the Showrunners and Writers keep trying to place those characters in. Which at times means putting those characters in relationships that don't make any sense or are simply random and lack chemistry. (Yes, this is one is aimed at the Showrunner and writers of 9-1-1).

4. Shows continuing to get fewer episodes per season. How can you build up good storytelling with six, eight or ten episodes? At times, it makes the storytelling feel rushed especially if the show has a lot of characters and multiple storylines that need to be focused on. I wish more shows would go back having at least 20 episodes per season which would give the writers time to really take their time writing good episodes.

5. I don't see why Station 19 had to be cancelled by ABC possibly because 9-1-1 was brought over. Although the shows center around first responders/fire fighters, however, both shows are fundamentally different. And they are not interchangeable. The executives at ABC could have left 9-1-1 on Mondays which is the day it aired on FOX and continued to let Station 19 hold it's day alone on Thursday. Instead 9-1-1 will air on Thursdays at 8PM and Station 19 will be pushed back to 10PM. This upcoming seventh season will be Station 19's final season which is why so many fans have been trying to save the show. There's a petition if you would like to sign it.

With all that said, Happy Festivus!

Station 19 Petition Update

I have an update on the Station 19 petition as of now it has over 50,000 signatures and counting. I saw on Twitter that Station 19 fans would like it if more of the shows fans would sign the petition and share it so others can sign it as well. Fans have also been watching and rewatching the show on Hulu and posting about it. I really commend the drive and determination of the fans, they are really trying their best to save the show.

Entertainment News #40: Station 19, André Braugher, Abbott Elementary Teaser Trailer and Author Loses Book Deal

Happy Wednesday! Here are a few news bites:

- Update on the Station 19 petition as of now it has over 32,000 signatures and counting. The fans have really been rallying around trying to save the show. They also plan on having a Watch Party to rewatch and promote the show. I'll write more about it in another post.

Entertainment News #39: Cancelled Shows: Station 19, Good Trouble and more

- ABC is cancelling Station 19, the upcoming seventh season will be the final season of the show. It's disappointing to hear because this is a good show filled with plenty of drama to go with all the emergencies. I really hope the show didn't get cancelled because ABC brought over a third first responder show, 9-1-1 (it was saved after it was cancelled by FOX). ABC already has The Rookie another popular first responder show, so it will be interesting to know why Station 19 was cancelled? Funny enough all three shows will celebrate reaching 100 episodes, too bad it will be Station 19's final season.

Edit: To add that fans of Station 19 have created a petition to save the show, here's the link if you would like to sign. There is already over 11,000 signatures and counting. The fans have also been speaking out and showing their continued support for the show on various social media. It will be interesting to see if they can save the show.

- And there are more cancelled shows to add to the continuous growing list. Freeform has cancelled Good Trouble (after five seasons) and Cruel Summer (after two seasons). Good Trouble will return for the second half of the fifth season on January 2nd. Cruel Summer's second season ended back in July and will now serve as the show's series finale. AMC has cancelled Lucky Hank after one season. The show premiered on March 19th with an eight episode season. And now the first season finale will also serve as the show's series finale.
