So Help Me Todd Is Canceled, But Fans Think They Know How to Save It

Summary:

• So Help Me Todd ’s cancellation news has been more than shocking to those who have kept their eye on the show ever since its season 1 release back in 2022.
• This time the fans’ outrage towards CBS has seemingly gone further than angry posts on social media.
• The channel hasn’t provided any response yet, but some precedents prove that it may actually work.

So Help Me Todd’s cancellation news has the whole fan community raging over the unfair decision, but this time things may have gone a bit further than usual.

Apparently, over the course of its relatively short run of two seasons, the show conquered so many hearts and to such an extent that fans weren't enough with just calling CBS out on the social media.

All the fuss around the media actually makes a lot of sense. So Help Me Todd initially follows quite an original and compelling plot that revolves around goofy Todd who isn’t able to keep his life together when it starts falling apart after Todd is deprived of his investigative license.

Luckily, he’s immediately picked up by his own mother, portrayed by Oscar-winning Marcia Gay Harden, who finds him a place in her law firm. Todd’s mother has high hopes that he will finally get serious while Todd himself is too much used to bending the rules depending on the situation.

Premiered in 2022, the show had quite a successful run with impressive ratings to this day, but was suddenly canceled earlier this month right in the midst of the second season’s airing.

So Help Me Todd Anti-Cancelation Petition

The fans’ outrage this time took it all to another dimension when someone created a petition on the change.org website demanding that CBS reconsider its decision and listing a whole bunch of reasons for it.

The fans’ outrage this time took it all to another dimension when someone created a petition on the change.org website demanding that CBS reconsider its decision and listing a whole bunch of reasons for it.

The petition, already signed by more than 16 thousand people, mentions that “cancelling a show when it's already reported to end on a cliffhanger is a cruel thing to do”.

Additionally, So Help Me Todd doesn’t deserve to be scrapped like this due to its stories’ major development throughout the series, diversity that the show really takes care of, ability to become a real incentive for many to start their career in the legal profession and many other reasons.

Though there was no response from CBS' part so far, the fans indeed have chances to get what they want given that the television history has already seen such phenomena.

Previously, initially canceled shows like Cagney & Lacey, Roswell, Family Guy, Futurama, Firefly, Jericho, Designing Women, Friday Night Lights and Quantum Leap were eventually revived thanks to the audience that wouldn’t give up that easily.
