Keeping The Dream Alive
Last night, NBC aired what very well may be the last episode of one of the best series out there, American Dreams. While the decision may already be in the bag, I still say we shan't go down without a fight.
Below is a copy of the letter I sent to the following email address: AmericanDreams@nbcuni.com The subject line should be: SAVE OUR SHOW. The body of the email can be whatever you want it to be, assuming it's about the show of course. Otherwise, that would just be really silly.
If you don't watch American Dreams well then you might be the reason it could be cancelled then, can't you? The only way you can make up for this is to make it your duty to find someone who does and pass this information along to them. It's really the only respectable thing to do.
To Whom It May Concern,
I am writing to express my concern regarding the possible cancellation of a favorite show of mine, the exemplary American Dreams. Since the show began in 2002, it has been a Sunday night favorite in my household. In fact, once the show moved from Sunday to Wednesday nights we too moved along with it.
Shows like American Dreams are a rarity and a true find. There is a richness that comes along with American Dreams. It's casting is authentic, it's situations rooted in historical preservation. American Dreams is the "perfect marriage" of an educational experience set to an entertaining and effective musical backdrop. It's poignant without being preachy, comical without being insulting. Most importantly, it's truer to life than most so-called real life programs on the air today. To let a show such as this go without a fight is out of the question.
I hope that NBC surprises the viewing public and does the honorable thing in keeping American Dreams on the air. It would be easy AND expected for NBC to cancel even the best of shows citing ailing ratings. But it would speak volumes to everyday viewers like myself if NBC listened to the fans and kept American Dreams alive.
Sincerely,
