Uncut OMWF - Fans need help! - Science Fiction Fantasy Chronicles: forums

Hello!

I'm writing on behalf of all Latin American Buffy fans.

Last night, after over three weeks of publiciting what according to themselves was "The one episode fans can't miss" and to our absolute surprise and disgust, 'Canal Fox' aired an EDITED version of 'Once More, With Feeling'.

It was the episode's premier and no comments were made nor explanations given, neither before nor after the show about it no being in its original version. Chances are (9,999 to 1) that reruns will also be edited.

That's why we've come up with a 'petition to Canal Fox' where we demand our right to watch, al least once, the uncut version of this episode.

We feel cheated, but above all disrespected. BtVS is in no way less important than their beloved 'Ally McBeal', 'The Practice' or 'Boston Public', so we want them to show us the same respect as they show David kelly's fans. We also want them to know that this time we won't keep it quiet.

What I'm asking here is for you to join us and sign the petition. Lets show them that BtVS has a very large and solid fan base that won't be stepped over, unless not without putting up a fight.

I understand that some of you may feel a little reluctant about signing something written in a language that you might not fully comprehend, but remember that you can always use an online translator like http://www.systransoft.com/ to translate the petition's text.

Please, help us in our fight. We're counting on you.
