The petition won't do much.
To truly kill **** Trinny and Sussanah show and really hurt channel 7
1. Don't watch the show Trinny at that time or watch another channel like ch10 or ch9. Tape LOST and watch it later.
2. Boycott their other popular shows like desperate housewives and greys..by taping it and watching it later...Boycott all their australian shows, watch another channel.
3. Don't support any other future popular shows they have cos they will just do the same to the fans. They will Put it on at 8:30 and slowly killed it off or put it at a later timeslot.
Lost could go on tueday at 8:30 or 9:30. I find Tuesday is boring and has no good shows.
The online petition is good but will it be effective?
Probably not, but it's good to try.
But to really hurt them you need to hit them where they are weakest and that is in advertising dollars.
So boycott all their shows.
Write letter to tell them you will boycott.
Call them and do the same thing.
This is just too ridiculous.
They put two stupid shows "ghostwhiper" and "Trinny" to push LOST and family guy to a later timeslot..
They screwed up Heroes, Prison break last season.
They wreck the timeslot for "24"...They keep on putting reality *** and kill great shows. Ch7 has the best written shows yet they screw it up big time ( prison break, heroes, 24, LOST etc).
I feel it is time to give up watching good shows on Free TV and wait for the DVDS or get them from the net..
At Least I will be in more control now...
Free TV is truly dead!
Have a good life my fellow netizens...I bid you farewell. |

| Word History: Charles C. Boycott seems to have become a household word because of his strong sense of duty to his employer. An Englishman and former British soldier, Boycott was the estate agent of the Earl of Erne in County Mayo, Ireland. The earl was one of the absentee landowners who as a group held most of the land in Ireland. Boycott was chosen in the fall of 1880 to be the test case for a new policy advocated by Charles Parnell, an Irish politician who wanted land reform. Any landlord who would not charge lower rents or any tenant who took over the farm of an evicted tenant would be given the complete cold shoulder by Parnell's supporters. Boycott refused to charge lower rents and ejected his tenants. At this point members of Parnell's Irish Land League stepped in, and Boycott and his family found themselves isolated—without servants, farmhands, service in stores, or mail delivery. Boycott's name was quickly adopted as the term for this treatment, not just in English but in other languages such as French, Dutch, German, and Russian. |

The boycott is a great idea.
I just don't think it's good to tape LOST and watch it later. It will tell them that people aren't interested in LOST either.
Just tape your other Ch7 shows, like suggested, but tune in to LOST.
There are way better things to watch at 9.30 than T&S. Ch9 has the good old Footy Show, and if you prefer AFL over NRL, watch the AFL Footy Show on 9HD during that time.
For the person that suggested Tuesday. Ramsay's Kitchen is a good show haha!
Simply ridiculous that LOST has to suffer because people who can't follow a show for long, or think it isn't "cool" to watch LOST. It is 1 of only 3 shows of the kind that has lasted.
BRING BACK 9.30!
8.30 is Ramsay's Kitchen :P |

| Stopping the show isn't going to put Lost back on at the better time. Sorry to burst your bubble, but the freaks have it in their minds to change who's watching tv at a certain time. Trinny and Susanne are for the mums and its probebly going to stay that way. Great idea, but i doubt it will work, because i don't think many people on this site would watch it anyway. |

Hey fairgo I'm a mum and I'm a fanatical fan of LOST, so is my son.
I don't mind Trinny and Sussanah but I'm luckier then some as I now have the luxury of taping everything but I greatly sympathies with others who don't as I was in the same situation before. |
