Loyal and dedicated fans of "Eastwick" have started a petition directed at ABC Chairman, Stephen McPherson for him to bring back the show on screen. The comedy did not receive additional episodes order on Monday, November 9 beyond the original 13-episode commitment.
"We need to save 'Eastwick', one of the best show of the year," part of the petition read. At the time of writing, the signatures accumulated have reached 2,000 plus. There is also a Twitter account to save the show starring Rebecca Romijn being set up for trending topic.
Meanwhile, star Sara Rue has confirmed on her Twitter that the show is indeed being canceled by the network. "Yes, it's true and what a sad day on the set of Eastwick ... thanks to all who watched and those who continue to do so through the 13 eps. XOXO," she wrote. Sources are telling E! that the vacant Wednesday slot will eventually be given to "Ugly Betty" which is currently occupying the Friday nights.

i never leave comments on web posts/articles/etc... but I'm so sad to hear that they're canceling it!! I love this show- it's one of my "guilty pleasures."
Please bring Eastwick back! It was nice to have something a little different. I loved all the characters and the actors!
why would they take this off it was a great show. i rad they are putting ugly betty back on what a bunch of wankers hey that show ended because it was pathetic atleast this ws new and different give it back to the fans
This is a nice escape show. It is fun and funny and fanciful. For one hour every week, I do not worry about unemployment, health care reform, the budget deficit or the wars in Iraq or Afghanistan. I am lost in the laughter and fun of Eastwick. I go on line to watch the episodes again because I always miss something. Please put the show back on the air. It was the only thing I watched on your damned network!
Hey fuck ABC I loved that show. Bring back Eastwick you dumb fucks!!!
Cancel The Forgotten and V. All the shows ABC has canceled like Cupid, Life on Mars, Men in Trees are imaginative and quite magical! Keeping Lost, The Forgotten, V - seriously what is up with that? The canceled shows should have had better time slots and been marketed like the latter shows mentioned. Seriously canceled? Awful.
I love this show Eastwick, it is different and entertaining. I am sick of police/hospital dramas and stupid sitcoms that make people look like idiots. I think this show needs to be on a progressive network, not a tired one.
I CANT BELIEVE IT! EVERY TIME I GET A NEW FAVORITE SHOW THEY STOP AIRING IT. WHY DONT THEY TAKE OFF THAT STUPID SHOW MODERN LIFE INSTEAD?
WHAT A SHAME! Im not big on watching TV, but eastwick was definately a show that could grab my attention for an hour! PLEASE bring it back! :( Maybe try putting it into an earlier time slot! Maybe then then ratings will go up!
Too good to last.. from the first episode I knew this show was not going to make it past a first season. The writing is not that great and more thought should have gone into the story. But for some reason this show still had the ability to suck you in and for an hour each week, I felt like I was in Eastwick, really was a neat show to watch and I am going to miss every minute of it. My best advice to those who are upset about this, don't watch the rest of the shows, it will just bother you more in the end.....I still have not gotten over HBO killing Deadwood. Goodbye Eastwick.
I was watching this faithfully. My husband would even help me get my kids off to be so I could watch it. Why cant us girls have a show to watch. Just because the men are the ones who normally sit on the couch and watch TV doesn't mean that the girls don't want to sit down too. PLEASE BRING IT BACK. I had just gotten my girlfriends intrested. They all called wondering if they had missed it and were disapointed to find out it wasn't on, now twice in a row. Four episodes doesn't even equal a season. Give it a chance!!!!!!!!!!
I hate getting invested in a show and then they cancel it. ABC is getting as bad as FOX now with this crap! Eastwick was one of the only entertaining shows on Wen. nights, I understand the ratings were going down but give it a chance!!
I really cant believe they are taking off this show! Part of the problem - they didnt advertise it, none of my friends knew about it - till I told them. I guess my TV will just stay OFF. I am tired of watching the reality shows and crime stuff!
This is a wonderful show. I can't believe they are going to cancel it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
what does ABC know about anything really entertaining? They really haven't shown much in the way of a great series lately,in fact none of the networks have come up with anthing so appealing and amusingly entertaining as "EASTWICK" keeps you coming back for MORE....The only new show worth watching...What a Shame ...
I love this show. I am so tired of police forensics, stupid medical shows. Your keeping Cougar Town? and cancelling this wonderful show. For shame. Enough with the vampires1 Up with the witches. Charmed was a wonderful series and lasted out. Please try a different time slot, something BUT DO NOT TRASH IT!
omg i only seen the show once but planed to c it again bring it back eastwick must live on
please dont cancel eastwick. its a great show.. one of the best abc has right now!
keep this show it's awesome!
don't take this-hot women!
I love this show! We watched it since the beginning! Pleasse keep this show!
so stupid of ABC I cant believe it, this show is so awesome its the best thing to come along since charmed i actually like eastwick better. this sucks im loosing 2 great shows in one year. even though Guiding light was on CBS it still sucks.
STUPID MOVE on ABC"S part! Eastwick is one of the best imaginative shows since Charmed left the air! This show is like a cross between Desperate Housewives(also a favorite) and Charmed! Second everyone on here needs to step back from Ugly Betty it's a good show and it is NOT the reason they canceled Eastwick! "The Forgotten" is the reason Eastwick is being booted! They can put shows on whatever day they want, even if they wanted to move Ugly Betty, to Eastwicks slot they could have just as easily put Eastwick in Ugly Betty's old slot. Everyone needs to boycott The Forgotten - that is the reason for no Eastwick! BRING IT BACK ABC! SERIOUSLY PISSED OFF FAN!
I enjoy this show and like most everyone else who have signed I do not care for reality tv. I hope ABC will change their minds and keep Eastwick on.
Eastwick is one of 5 shows I bother to watch. I request that it get's brought back and if a request isn't enugh, then I will damn well demand!
really enjoy this show...have it dvr'd so I don't miss an episode. You've gotta keep this fun, quirky show.
really enjoy this show...have it dvr'd so I don't miss an episode. You've gotta keep this fun, quirky show.
DO NOT CANCEL EASTWICK!!!!!
Please don't cancel this great show! I am tired od all the doctors'lawyers and cop shows! No more reality, I want to fantasy!! I want Joanna's powers and I can definitly relate to Kat in being in a marriage for so long that the love is gone but u still want to be there for your kids and that Daryl (MMMmmmm) what a handsome bad ass guy! U love him and hate him at the same time!! My point is Please let me fantasy and DON'T CANCEL THIS AWESOME SHOW!! THANK YOU
Please allow Eastwick to continue.
I love this show!!..just as I love love my chocolate. It's a little escape and the world gets put on hold. All 3 girls are cute and quirky. My Mom's arguement is the girls are too dingy...I will take it anyway, just PLEASE KEEP EASTWICK. It was cool to have Cybil on the show as well. I was so happy that finally found a show that I actually love. They always cancel the good stuff. And I still miss Third Watch!
Please keep Eastwick for those of us who refuse to watch Reality shows.
This was the first good clean show to come along in a while. My husband and I both enjoyed this show together. He liked it for obvious reasons but I enjoyed it because it was something different. I loved the characters and was so anxious to see what happened next. I have nothing to look forward to on Wed. nights now.
Do NOT CANCEL EASTWICK-it is the only show I watch on ABC, seriously. I tried watching Ugly Betty and after 2 episodes I said no thanks-even the first season of Ugly Betty was worse than this show-Eastwick is awesome, I had to DVR it twice because my kids were up, but I love watching this show and it is starting to get more interesting-if ABC does not keep it, please please lets hope another network takes it, many fans would love to continue this show-your fans are behind you Eastwick.
please dont cancel. This was a great show. Im so tired of all the other trash on tv.
great show great women looked forward to watching every wednesday night
please please please don't cancel this show!
Great show!!! Why not try a different time slot/day? This is a funny ,sexy, smart show-PLEASE keep it on the air !!!
Well here we go again. You did the same bull with Dirty, Sexy, MoneY and pushing daisies. Once again not even giving it a chance. I'm flat out just going to stop watching ABC. EVERY time I get into a show because It has a great cast and storyline you cancel it and put on another stupid CSI or Reality show. PLAYED OUT!!! Get it nobody wants to watch that crap anymore. If the show had low views did you ever think that maybe its not because of the show but because the network sucks. GET A CLUE. You have to give a show a chance before you yank it. Everyone I know loved Eastwick!!! And I know nobody who watches that stupid show ugly betty!!! Give us a break ABC. I think the only reason you guys have any viewers anyway is because of Lost. Which I feel is played out as well. But thats ok cause I heard you canceling that as well. Oh well, I guess that means GOOD BUY ABC. YOUR LAME.
Ugly Betty is lame and so not worth replacing Eastwick. If anything move Eastwick to Friday nights and put your stupid Ugly Betty on Wed. Really does any one even watch that show. Its one of the dumbest shows out there. Its been on long enough. I think its time to move on from that show in the first place.
Please, please, please do not cancel Eastwick. Its so hard these days to find good shows that are not the norm. And this show fits the bill. I'm so sick of all the CSI's and stupid reality shows. You didn't even give it a chance. It was hardly even advertised so people are just not starting to get into it. Its smart, sexy and mystical with a GREAT cast. Why does ABC always do this. They throw out way to many shows at once and then get rid of the best ones. 13 shows. Really what do you expect the reaction is going to be with ony 13 shows. BULL. I'm so pissed. You have to give it a chance. Its one of the best shows on right not because its different then any thing else out their. Again GIVE IT MORE OF A CHANCE PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!
Why is it when something is really entertaining and better than Ugly Betty you decide to cancel? Why not move it?
I loved Eastwick! I was so upset when I seen it didn't record Wednesday night, and found out it was CANCELLED. I've never watched Ugly Betty and I won't start. Very disappointed. How can they just leave us hanging!! I want to know what happens next, who is Vanhorn anyway?! Any who is the missing woman in the picture he burned? Bun just got her memory back and they do this? HUHHHHH!
Please keep Eastwick!!! It's a fresh fun show worth watching!!!
There are very few shows that women can relate to and enjoy. Too many realty crazys and crime drama. We beg you keep Eastwick, put it on with Desperate Housewives and more will watch. It is hidden on Wednesday nights . So much better than tons of shows that are on now. Perhaps we can get USA to pick it up or Lifetime.
keep this show we girls all get together and watch it once a week..it is great...don't cancel..we love it
PLEASE DONT CANCEL EASTWICK!!!! I love this show I look forward to Wednesdays just cause I know it is going to be on. I love the cast and the story line, and it is so hard to find a good show now a days. I was hooked from the first episode and i think you would be making a big mistake canceling this show. It was just getting into it with them discovering their powers it was so entertaining. You would be a FOOL to cancel this show without even really giving it a chance.
Do not cancel Eastwick, there are so many hospital dramas and reality shows its sickening. Eastwick is funny, charming, and just plain fun. Its a good show and this will be a big mistake if abc takes this show off the air.
Don't cancel a great show
First you get rid of pushing daisies, then you screw up Grey's Anatomy, now you're canceling Eastwick?!? I'm done watching ABC. Your network is terrible and you never give shows a chance to thrive.
DONT CANCEL EASTWICK!!!!
Love, Love, Love this show DO NOT CANCEL!! Give it a chance!
Please do not cancel Eastwick, I love this show so much!!!
Is there a petition to have it on another network??? If ABC is going to be stubborn and not keep it, then perhaps another network would think it's worth taking it (BECAUSE IT IS). ABC is just missing out on all the Emmys Eastwick would have won.
I make sure that my calender is clear so that I can watch Eastwick, and heaven help the person that interupts my watching it. Everyone learned very quickly do not even disturb Mom while she is watching Eastwick! It is one of the best shows I have seen in awhile. I absolutely love Eastwick and don't want to see it end.
This is a very entertaining show. I can't beleive that you are replacing it with Ugly Betty... watched 5 minutes of that show once, and haven't touched it since. I was watching Cougar Town as well, but I think I'll boycott ABC in my household.
Please bring it back. It was a nice change from the reality crap. Try to air it on a different day or timeslot. PLEASE!!!
Please don't cancel eastwick me and my co-workers are obsessed with that show. What will we talk about come Thursday morning?
I agree with everyone's post thus far. This series is fantastic. It's both clever and sexy. It really is the only show I look forward to on Wednesday's. I just got home from work (3rd shift- I DVR it) and when I saw Eastwick didn't record I got on the internet to find out why and found out it was being cancelled. Truly disappointing.
Ugly betty is lame these days sorry but its true and eastwick is way better, PlEASE KEEP it on air .. which the times of the showing that would be okay with me since i always have to record it . But im inlove with the show . so please keep it its the first show that i actally make time to watch .
This is the best thing on TV right now!!!!! Get rid of the reality shows, never watched them never will. I watch TV to escape from reality!!
This show is the best. Don't cancel it!
People haven't even had a chance to hear about eastwick now. Don't cancel it!
I agree with everyone. Eastwick is a great show. It's different and I do agree, Ugly Betty sucks! Don't cancel it!! I look forward to it every week!
ugly betty sucks!!!!eastwick will resume on nov.25th to finish out the final 6 episodes. Meanwhile there are pettions all over online to keep the show on!! some have more that 4 or 5 thousand. signatures. so get looking and please sign any petiton you find. And spread the word!!!!
I love the show also, and it would be ashame to cancel the show - where do I sign the petition? I doubt anything can fix it to where it goes back on air, since the dollar is more important to some other than having a viewing audience.
Figures, another good show cancelled. Lets maybe do another crime drama, reality show or hospital drama in its place. There really are not enough of those.
this Sucks I love this show
really disappointed. was enjoying this show. it's always the good ones that get axed. never the reality crap or cliche cop dramas.
stick with the original film.... superior and unimitatable.
I love this show! WHAT THE HECK! IT IS SO SUPER GREAT!
Whoever the retard in charge was who made the decision to cancel Eastwick should LOSE THEIR JOB. If there are execs who are happening to read over these comments, if you read no other comments, READ THIS ONE: It is SAD that they lack the PERCEPTION to realize that this show - if left on the air - WILL ATTRACT SO MUCH MORE ATTENTION. So many people I know talk about and make sure they are home in time to watch THIS ONE PROGRAM. ABC has no idea of the demographics they are hitting so thoroughly with this Show - NO IDEA. You execs have to be PATIENT and not worry about your ratings all the time -- shows like this will be huge because so many people love it now. Stop being so short-sighted and leave a wonderfully fantastic show ON THE AIR. There are aspects of this show that so many of us viewers relate to and LOVE ferociously!!!! If you take this show off it will be a wonderful demonstration of ABC's lack of INSIGHT and inability to make sound choices. Just be PATIENT and PLEASE LEAVE IT ON THE AIR. THIS SHOW IS WHAT I LOOK FORWARD TO EACH WEDNESDAY.
I would really hate to see Eastwick go off the air, it's the only good thing on, Wednesday nights. :( please no.
finally ABC finds a show worth watching and they s-can it. Ugly Betty, never watched it and won't start. Goodbye ABC you're toast.
please dont take it off the air...it rox
i love this show....what will i dont without it...NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
I'm sick of these stupid reality shows getting all the ratings pushing off all the new shows!!. I love Eastwick and I loved Dirty Sexy Money!
This show was very entertaining. At least let us finish out the season to see how things turn out.
please keep this show it is the one show I really look forward to every week!!
So they're putting one of the worst shows in television history in it's place in Ugly Betty? LMAO
