My letter to the President of ABC Family!
Posted Fri, 02/06/2009 - 08:24 — CEOKI live in Sweden, but Im a HUGE fan of Kyle XY so Ill do anything I can from here to help saving the show, so here my contribution:
"To the President of ABC Family, Paul Lee
I write this letter as I am a huge fan of the hit-show Kyle XY.
It has come to my knowledge that the show will be cancelled and I am very sorry for that, as I know many others are all over the world.
There are campaigns going on to try to save the show. We are all very determinded to save this show as it is for many one of the best shows ever to been shown on televison.
There are petitions to be signed out on the internet, it is told that you should send Sour patch kids and unreal tubs to You at ABC Family and to write real letters, not only emails, to make You realize that there are actually many people all over the world that really wants to save this show. There are also Facebook, Myspace and Youtube-sites made to save it. You can also send different postcards and different flyers to be put up.
I have red that when the shows viewers were to be counted, it only counted the people who watched the show on television, and that is not fair counting as many people with me do not watch the show on television but on the internet. I think that would make the shows´veiwers raise a lot if You counted the internet watchers aswell.
I live in Sweden in Europe. My best friend told me that I should really watch this great show Kyle XY. It has a bit of everything, she said. She told me about the sci-fi-part and although I am not really into that I thought I could give the show a go as I thought it sounded good anyway. So me and my friend watched the DVD-box she had bought with the first season of the show and I was totally hooked. We could not stop watching and had marathons when we sat day and night watching it. And when the box was finished we looked on the internet so see more! The characters played by really good actors are so good. You like them everyone in different ways as they all have so different personalities but is so perfect for the show. You can really feel for everyone in different ways and get really engaged to them and the show!
Today Kyle XY is not broadcasted in Swedish television unfortunately, but me and my friend watch the new season on the internet, which I know for sure many others do. I joined the Kyle XY forum on the ABC Family site, only because I wanted to be able to be up-dated on the show and chat with other fans of Kyle XY. If You have not already taken a look on the Kyle XY forum You should really do that, it is one of the biggest forums on the whole site and You will see our, the fans, willpower to save this very much loved show.
With these words I want to beg You to save the show, do ten more episodes, or sell it to another company that can broadcast the show instead. We want more Kyle XY, either it is ten new episodes to complete the show and not leave us, the fans, with questions what would happened then, or even a fourth season!
PLEASE,PLEASE,DO NOT CANCEL KYLE XY!!"
It is long I know, but hope you like it, tell me if you think I should change anything or so!
To the President of ABC Family, Paul Lee,
I know that you reveive a lot of letter to save "Kyle XY", and it's impossible to all read it.
Therfore, I take you to know that I'm not an english speaker and I know english just a little. But that doesn't stop to voice my opinion about the foolish decision you had made and without any doubt a flagrant mistake for the ABC company.
Because, Kyle XY gave us an original story that lead us to be emported to incredible world, and how the actors are great, more than that is who the stroy attract the viewers. Besides, you have really done a great work: how the scenes had been filmed, how the episodes follow a great progression, the music and so on.
Finally, I take you to know that I saw a lot of series: heroes, doctor who, etc. But no one is great like how Kyle XY is. Please don't deceive us.
We love you so much Kyle XY

Kyle Xy not cancel, please, I love the series, it makes it all here with me and from Brazil, I am Begging! Please reconsider.
Thank you.
We got be organized people. In order to save this show we need to spread the word and tell others what ABC family is doing. But, unfortunately as far as I see signing petitions with a few thousand signatures isn't going to work well or at all. Listen guys, ABC family is like any other network, they don't care about people feelings and beliefs , as far as I’m concern they only care about two things RATINGS AND MONEY. Once one is gone the show is good as dead. One thing I learn from dealing with people is that if you can't offer them something like money, power or even love you’re useless to them. My guess to save KYLE XY is to offer one of the two “Money or Ratings ". If we fans could come up with some unique way to get them either (money or ratings) we can save the show. By the way, I do support petitions, I have agreed to 3 already and I hope that all fans do. But, guys let’s talk about reality, say if I own a TV station and I'm losing money because a show suddenly loses ratings and I decide because of this to end the show, do you think that I would fathom to care about what a few fans say about my decision. If we start to think like ABC family and start to understand what they want then we will be to come up with a full proof method to save the show. Through our fan unity we, together, can come up with a solution. We can't give up guys, we need try new ways to save this show, signing petitions isn’t going to be enough if we can't get at least 2 million signatures. What we need to do is offer them money (which I believe to be the best solution) or get more people to watch Kyle XY to increase the ratings ( which will be harder since we only have 6 episodes left!!!). In regards to offering them money, let’s think about, let’s say if 2 million people give 20 dollars a month to ABC family for 3 months .... how much do we get 120 million dollars!!! That’s more than enough for 3 seasons (supposing their on a tight budget). I mean come on people, if we are really fans and I mean really, 20 bucks a month isn't going to hurt us. That’s pocket change for Christ sake!!! I believe this plan to be the best full proof method to save the show if times come difficult. Again, this station to me is like any other station, they only care about Money and Ratings and if we can't offer them either the show is good as dead.
Like I said before on that petition website, it's not really going to work. The best we can do is to continue petitioning online as much as we can, to send in letters in hope that they will accumulate to between two to five thousand in number, and to boycott the network by not watching anything on it but Kyle XY.
Letters should be mailed to the following address:
Mr. Paul Lee, President
ABC Family
DISNEY ABC TELEVISION GROUP
500 South Burna Vista Street
Burbank, CA 91521

Is it anything that is spelt wrong in my letter?:S
probably both I want people to be able to construct their letters from various pieces so that each letter can be different.
Very in-depth letter and seems to hit every aspect.

Chemistry and Love is different in each persons eyes. It does not mean that anybody is wrong just that we have a difference of opinion... it is just I believe I am right.
I am going to put parts of this letter on my website savethetub.com for other people to use.
Did you mean my letter or the one under mine?hehe.
