If you want to "save" a show, you must have several things come together; the least of which is a well written dialogue about the reasons why you want the show saved and what you think you and the show's fans can do to accomplish this. I too believe that Ruby & The Rockits was not given a fair chance. However, there are some things that are not working in your favor in this missive. First of all, you MUST recognize that you will be dealing with a corporation and, as such, you MUST proofread things before you send them out to the general public. In your post above, there are several spelling and/or grammatical mistakes. If this were to go to the Disney corporation, you would be laughed at. Second, the title of this website is "Save Disney Shows." Please understand that, while Disney is the parent company of ABC Family, it is NOT a "Disney" show. Ruby & The Rockits was never shown on the Disney Channel and, to my knowledge, there has never been any cross promotion from/to either channel. If you want to hit the source responsible, you must go to ABC Family. Third, while I understand your frustration at ABC Family for only producing 10 episodes of Ruby & The Rockits, you must understand the business side of television production. Ruby started out great, but lost A LOT of viewers in the coming weeks. When the production is costing more than what the corporation is making in advertising dollars, the show will be cancelled (i.e., less viewers = less people seeing the commercials = advertisers pulling out because their product is not being represented to their standards). Finally, you must pull people in and have them actively participate in something (think of when the viewers of "Jericho" sent nuts to CBS to protest the cancellation of that show). I also was appalled at the fact that when I clicked on the link you have at the bottom of your post, that you give no ideas of what should be done to help save this show, you just repeat this post and then underneath (and, indeed in a banner running across the top) you are asking KIDS to send you money to fund this and other sites. That is simply deplorable. If you want to open up something with its own personal domain name, then YOU are the one who should be responsible for paying for said domain...not the people who are trying to save their shows. There are too many free websites that you can use to justify having people give you money to keep these domains open. To me, it just looked like a giant scam to get money.
