E! Online Helps Save One Bubble Show With Your Vote Dan Koelsch, April 5, 2010April 5, 2010 Every spring the television networks have to decide what shows to bring back for the fall schedule, and every spring fans desperately try to save their favorites that are on the bubble. Fortunately, they got someone watching their backs with E! Online. Find out how they are helping you save your favorite series from cancellation. E! Online is hosting a competition in which your votes will decide what show the E! organization will push to stay on the air. The field has already been narrowed down to five, with Better Off Ted, Chuck, Life Unexpected, One Tree Hill, and Parenthood as the finalists. However, if your favorite show is on the bubble, but not on the list, you still have a shot. You can tweet E! Online’s Kristin Dos Santos with one of the shows listed as a wild card on the Save One Show page, and whichever show gets the most tweets gets entered back into the finals. E! Online will announce the winner on Monday April 12th, when they make the big push on their E! news shows and even to the winning network itself. The winner doesn’t necessarily get a free pass, however, as The Sarah Connor Chronicles won last year and was still cancelled (whereas runner up Chuck survived). My favorite to stay is Human Target (which is a wild card). What about you?
