Bring Back Melissa and Sid to Q94 Mornings

Bring Back Melissa and Sid to Q94 Mornings

Target:
To quit the out sourcing of Q94 Morning Radio and to Bring Back Sid Kelly!
Hep us bring back Melissa Chase and Sid Kelly to Q94 where they belong! We are outraged by the fact that the Melissa and Sid Morning Show on Q94 has been terminated. We don't like how it was canceled so quickly and then to be told that it was being outsourced to New York! It dosen't make sense that a "local" radio show is in New York City!! We also don't like this decision because in Richmond there is very little variety in the choices of radio stations and this decision makes the variety even slimmer. The canceling of the Melissa and Sid Morning Show will surely result in a decrease in listeners because there are very loyal fans. When someone mentions Melissa and Sid you immediately think of Q94 that morning show holds that station together! Richmond (me too) has been waking up to this morning show for 6 years sharing their crazy stories, breakups, proposals, troubling family matters, new babies, marriages, cheating (War of the Roses) and even those crazy Man Segments. To me this is heart breaking, knowing that we will never be able to do that again. No one really wants to listen to someone in New York when they know they could be listening and chatting to Melissa and Sid locally. I am thoroughly disappointed that Clear Channel has fired Sid Kelly.  Waking up in the morning just wont be the same without them.

I strongly dislike the syndicated morning show that is now on based in New York. New York! This is Richmond, I have now switched to listening to another morning show on K95 with Catfish and Lori. I am extremely disappointed with the decision.

I listened to Q94 every morning on my way to work when Melissa and Sid were on. Now, I don't. You do the math Q94.

I've tried to adapt to this new morning show, but it just gives me a headache listening to this group of people. Elvis and his group seem desperate for laughs, yet they're not entertaining or informative in any way. They don't even talk about the day's current events. Just a bunch of generic, bathroom type attempts at humor. Repulsive noise. Why should I bother listening if you don't care about what you're broadcasting?

The people on the new show are horrible. I'd rather listen to nails on a chalkboard than hear the screeching siren-like voices of the new people. We want Virginians (Melissa and Sid) back on our morning show!

Q94 is really going downhill. One nationalized show in the afternoon is enough, now one in the morning too! I've listening to the station since 1995 or so, but no longer. Y101 from now on, unless something is done. Vulgarity is unacceptable, do something about it!

I am very upset to find out that my favorite morning show has been canceled! I loved waking up early knowing that I would have something entertaining to listen to while I am driving in the morning! They made the radio much better!! BRING THEM BACK PLEASE!

The new show in the morning is TERRIBLE, they barely play any music & they just talk about crap that no one cares about. I would rather listen to country than Q94 in the morning now & that is def. saying something coming from me.

I have stopped listening to Q94 and have now turned to my ipod for my morning music, gps for traffic information and local news while I am doing my hair. I refuse to listen to Q94 until you bring back Melissa and Sid. Your new hosts and show content like the phone tap are awful.

I don't even listen to Q94 anymore. I don't like those personalities you have on there now if you can even call them that. I love Sid and Melissa and would switch back if they were there.

I am so outraged by the firing of sid and changing melissa chase to afternoons for once in a long time q-94 was worth listening to and I've been a listner to the radio station for at leastt 15 years or longer .melissa nad sid you all brought alot to the station and made a good team you both will be missed tremendously. Sincerely Teresa

I dont listen to Q94 now because of this change. One of the best things about having Melissa and Sid was getting the hometown feel in the Richmond area. I cannot stand Ryan Seacrest, and this was a huge mistake of the radios behalf.

The decisions of the management & owners of the station must SERIOUSLY be brought into question! In the best interest of the station, business, & the community of listeners & patrons in Richmond, VA that the current management & owners be removed from their position IMMEDIATELY!!!

We have been robbed. In a world of automated computers for every number you dial in hopes to talk to a human voice, our own community has succumbed to the emotionless American way. Melissa and Sid were apart of our community we grew with were allowed to share parts of their life with, who were one of us. Now replaced with the automated stranger, not apart of our community

I came back from college only to find that there is this Elvis Duran nonsense playing in the morning. The fact that Melissa and Sid were local was awesome. They were also hilarious. Now, Q94 isn't even worth listening to.

I am originally from Richmond and have been out here in Ohio for 2yrs now. I have not been able to find a great morning show like that of Melissa and Sid. I m absolutely astonished that they would do this. It doesn't surprise me though in the long run. Clear Channel is absolutely pathetic when it comes to what their listeners REALLY want. If they actually listen to this petition I would be amazed!

I miss hearing whats going on in MY community in the mornings. Melissa & Sid were awesome, Elvis is NOT - I don't need to hear whats going on wherever he is and Melissa had much more entertaining hollywood gossip.

If we liked the stuff that came out of New York we would move there. Trash talk is one thing trash talk you have to turn off when your 80 year old mother, or your 15 year old neice get in the car is insane. I just turn the station and don't plan on turning it back.

I recently moved to NC and drove to Richmond for a visit to find a crappy morning show. The greatest thing about the morning show was that they were local. Melissa would show up at the clubs; she was even there the night of my bachelorette! You just don't get that with a syndicated show. New York might be nice to New Yorkers, but Richmonders want to hear about Richmond!

The language and subject matter are way to mature for my teenager - luckily she tunes in for music and since there is very little of that being played anymore (it's just a filler for all the chatter) we just don't tune in any longer - I miss Melissa and Sid!

It makes more sense to have local voices heard on the radio and make appearances where they can be seen. When you have shows in other states it takes away from the hometown sense of being. I always listened to Q94 in the mornings when it was Melissa & Sid but now I choose other stations. I hope you listen to this petition and bring back Sid and Melissa.

I have been a Q94 listener back since the QZoo was on in the mornings!! I really enjoyed Melissa and Sid,also!! The morning radio shows in this area are boring as mold growing stale bread. People make mistakes, but deserve second chances. I know clear channel radio made a big mistake canceling Mellissa & Sid!!!! This Elvis Duran that is on in the mornings SUCKS,SUCKS,SUCKS!!!! I would rather listen to nails on a chalkboard!!! When melissa & Sid are back on in the mornings, I will start back listening again!! Until then,keep Elvis Duran and keep loosing your loyal listeners!!!!

I am very disappointed, I just cannot imagen why yall decided to get rid of the show..I love Melissa and Sid.. the war of the roses, the 5 things you need to know before you go, crazy stories, and the man segment. please re-think your decision. our mornings will not be the same with out our Melissa and Sid Show. Everytime we think about Q94 Melissa and Sid comes to our thoughts

I was very saddened when I heard that the Melissa and Sid morning show got canceled. They池e really good together, their voices are clear. Melissa's laughter is very contagious. It's just not the same without them. No more war of the roses. I barely listen to the station now.

Every Thursday I check the website for the newest War of the Roses and for the last month or so I noticed there hadn't been anything added..... now I know why! They were terminated and being outsourced to New York?!?!? I was already getting tired of Q94 (maybe I'm just getting old?) and generally don't listen to that radio station anymore but always like hearing the War of the Roses... guess I won't be listening to them at all now.
