Yeah, I signed a few of them in the past, to no avail.

But in this case, this is a rather petty decision to be made by 4Kids, so there's a slim chance they'll take this petition into consideration.

Signed.

Those of you who care about this should make sure to post this on any forum you visit, and have your friends sign it. Nothing for anyone to lose here.

I doubt it'll have any effect, but it can't hurt to sign. Stupid 4Kids needs to sort this stuff out.

Well couple hours ago there were only 30 signatures.

In order for a petition to get signatures, someone has to circulate it. If you want this, then that someone is you.

Ditto. 4 Kids has already promoted the hell outta FF. I doubt they'll stop it now.

Cool.

You know, most petitions don't get exactly what they ask for. However, they do call attention to the fact that a bunch of people actually care about this. That can influence future decisions involving this issue, including decisions by other networks on whether they want to air the Lost Season... or even air TMNT at all.

Although I have never seen an online petition actually produce any results, my absolute disgust at 4Kids for the shoddy way in which they have been treating the turtles is enough for me to sign.

However, the only way we might have an actual chance of reaching 4Kids is to write letters to the company outlining our complaints. Otherwise, the chances of them actually taking us seriously are pretty much nonexistant.

I signed it and wrote:

One of the great things about TMNT is its continuity; every story builds on something fans learned in the past. It is imperative to watch every episode of every season to have a more than superficial understanding of what is going on. Therefore, when episodes are shown out of order or left out entirely, the story ceases to make sense. Allowing what is known as a continuous storyline to jerk from the Ninja Tribunal cliffhanger to a completely unrelated story line is a bad move. It just frustrates the fans, and few have a high tolerance level for frustration. It is for this reason that we, the TMNT fans, are requesting that you show the original season five before you show Fast Forward (if it airs at all). There are too many things left open right now. To jump into what is obviously a ratings directed storyline is foolish and even detrimental to the health of the show overall. Because the majority of fans are vocalizing against the decision, it will probably lower the ratings for TMNT. Don't "jump the shark!"

Here's hoping this will do some good!

Somehow, I have a sinking feeling that this would do more harm than good, as most petitions often do. Since most who have signed it have admitted that it's not gonna help anything, why don't we just wait for the lost season on DVD, and give fast forward a chance. You can't anything negative about it until you know it's the piece of garbage you forsee it to be.
