Dear The CW,

We have just gotten news that your show, The Beautiful Life: TBL, which airs Wednesdays at 9/8c, has gotten cancelled after only two episodes.

As huge fans of the show, we were all shocked and confused as to what happened. The cast were in the midst of shooting the 7th episode, since only 6 were completed. We ask you to please re-consider your decision to cancel the show.

We understand that the ratings haven't been as good as expected. Other shows you have been airing have also went through a slump, such as 90210 and Gossip Girl, but you have persevered with them. One of the many factors as to why the show might have slumped in ratings is that it had the same timeslot as Glee, Fox's new hit show with teenagers, the same demographic as TBL.

Another issue might have been the promotion and handling of the show. We feel that the show hasn't been getting the best exposure. It's main competition, Glee, had TV spots throughout one of the most watched shows on television, American Idol, and debuted right after it, with 10 million viewers.

Us fans would be willing to promote the show regularly by word of mouth, printing advertisments and handing them out, Twitter and other social networks, and buying the episodes on iTunes. All we ask is that you re-consider cancelling it and do your part, or at least, air the remaining 4 episodes that have been shot for them not to go to waste.

What really drew us to the CW was it's sometimes relatable storylines, and sometimes completely over-the-top situations, but we loved most of the shows, including TBL. If you plan to replace it with reality shows, as planned, then I, personally, would no longer support the CW since it would be succumbing to what people expect of it, not want.

Thank you,

    • Please rethink your decision of the cancellation of TBL, as the series never got its chance to really shine and show what it can bring to all viewers.

    • This is so sad! I loved the first 2 episodes... TBL didn't even get a chance to get big like Gossip Girl. If the CW continues to cancel the shows this fast, they will fast going to lose people who are watching the shows. Now, I'm going crazy. There's 6 more episodes that were recorded but weren't aired, which is a complete craziness!!! TBL needs to continue airing. EVERYONE who agree can contact me on deedee1whoa@yahoo.com because I'm willing to help in any possible way to save this great TV show.

    • NOT fair at all... I loved the show, & they should have at least aired the 6 more episodes that were done. Sara Pazton was the main reason why I started to watch it, & I miss it so much now! BRING IT BACK!!!

    • I agree with everything the letter said - it really highlights the main arguements. TBL was really one of the more original shows aired this fall (as opposed to Melrose Place and 90210 - whom I don't care for) and the fact that you cancelled it after only TWO episodes isn't at all fair. Mischa Barton was really excellent at her role, Sara Paxton brilliant and all the rest of the cast (I don't know their names) really pulled the show together and created believable, in-depth characters. The dialogue is great in this show (I especially love Marissa), as is the actual theme - the fashion. All of those are just few things that I, and I'm sure others too, love about TBL. Please, PLEASE, bring it back - at least air those 6 episodes. Oh, and you'll eat your heart out when you replace this with a stupid reality show ("Fly Girls" - really?!) and it gets TONNES less viewers than TBL. I am personally a big fan of the CW and its shows - so don't dissapoint and BRING IT BACK! THE BEAUTIFUL LIFE!!!

    • I completely agree with everything that has been stated in the proposal is extremely reasonable, especially the willingness of fans to distribute [free] advertising/promotional materiel in social networking sites.
