Report Petition

To: The Seven Network Australia, W Channel (Foxtel)

We, the undersigned, respectfully request that you purchase seasons 3 and 4 of The L Word to screen on your network at an accessible hour.

DVD sales and the rise of websites both here and internationally demonstrate the show’s popularity and the fact that there is a real audience here in Australia.

The programming of season 1 on the Seven Network at 12am on Wednesday mornings didn’t do the program justice, yet it still managed to find its audience among gay and lesbians as well as straight viewers.

Anecdotal evidence indicates that The L Word audiences are well-educated professionals with a high disposable income eager to access programs of quality with diverse subject matter.

We look forward to a favourable response to this petition and seeing The L Word on our television screens soon.

There would be higher ratings if it was on a little earlier and i know heaps of people including myself that were disappointed to hear it stopped airing on normal tv. No doubt the gay community would be glad to see that something can go our way if we speak out so please bring it back!

We need public support for lesbian shows to encourage more input within the industrarea The L Word has been not only the best thing released but the only, come on channel 7 realise a market when you see one!
151 10 Mar 2008 - 3:59    Felicity : Why would you not put this show in air? Yes it is an alternative lifestyle for some but for many is displays a life style that is true and afirms that people from all walks of life should appreciate each individuals choice to live their life as they see fit! I think this show actually helps gay people to be ok with who they are. especially in the younger age bracket. At the end of the day, its totally ok to be who you are. This show enforces that.
