Petition to get Channel 5 to treat Person of Interest better
- by: Daniel Dudley
- recipient: Channel 5 UK
As you may know Channel 5 own the UK broadcast rights to the TV series "Person of Interest". However they have been sloppy with how long after the US broadcast that they show the series. In the USA the series is in the middle of its 4th season, but Channel 5 have just finished Season 2. I want people to sign this petion for better advertising and promotion a well as showing the series soon after the USA transmition.
The email I have sent to Channel 5 (please feel free to comment on what I should change to make it better)
Dear Channel 5 we the people who have signed this petition want you to give the tv series Person of Interest better respect on your channel than it is already receiving. This includes giving the show better promotion and advertising on both your main channel and 5USA as well as a better timeslot and less waiting between when the show airs in the USA and on your channel. As you may know the U.S is currently in the middle of Season 4 whilst you have not started Season 3 yet. It would be a shame if people started illegally downloading this show or giving up on it altogether. You already gave up on Once Upon A Time, Justified and Sons of Anarchy and lost the rights to other hit shows you have shown in the past to other Channels such as Prison Break, House, M.D, Greys Anatomy and Breaking Bad. You have also moved shows from Prime Time scheduling on your main channel to your spin off Channels Five USA and Five Star such as The Walking Dead, the Law & Order franchise, Longmire, Castle and Body of Proof and we hope Person of Interest won’t get tossed to those Channels as an afterthought. Channel 5 seems to be only interest in CSI and NCIS franchises, these shows whilst scoring big for channel 5 won’t last forever and 2 CSI spin offs have already been cancelled. If channel 5 treated its full portfolio of shows like they did with CSI with good scheduling and advertising Channel 5 would get better ratings and more advertising revenue. Person of Interest is a great drama and is shown on CBS in America the channel that gave you CSI to begin with so by treating Person of Interest better you will be showing CBS that there partnership with Channel is one to be reckoned with.
