HATE ANGER RAGE

My fave! I really hope someone picks it up. I give up on TV otherwise. What's the point when the good ones are constantly short? savesingleparents SaveSingleParentsTV

That’s awful. ABC metrics’s aren’t working.

I emailed them telling the network what a trash decision this was. Such an amazing show 😭

C'mon PrimeVideoIN hulu Netflix_CA Netflix do your thing!

Save this show savesingleparents SingleParents netflix hulu nbc cbs

savesingleparents RenewSingleParents spread the word!!

They didn’t let it end how we wanted 😭it’s not fair, give me my happy ending 😭

Awww 💔

Hey ABCNetwork I just wanna talk

I’m so sad. Such a pure show with great characters and some of the best child actors. Boo ABC!

Ughhhh😖

Huh. This might've been my favorite show over the past few years. savesingleparents

What?!!! How awful! I LOVE this little show!!

I love this show

SingleParentsTV is literally the only network show to premier in the last three years that I’m still watching weekly. No wonder less and less people commit their time to network shows when they get shuffled in schedule and cancelled with no warning.

This is stupid. But this is the network that cancelled Last Man Standing out of the blue, its top comedy at the time. Clueless execs.

ABCNetwork what is WRONG with you.. lastmanstanding and now SingleParents ...cmon FOXTV netflix hulu ...how do we get a petition going? SingleParentsTV

savesingleparents

ABCNetwork

Nooooooo it’s so freaking good!!!!! Ugh

This show’s cast and the writing was amazing. It was constantly creative and always funny as hell. Networks need to stop using archaic ratings models as guidelines for programming. This decision is total garbage.

Noooooooooooooooo

No!!!! It’s mind numbingly funny and has kept me going during covid lockdown. abc SingleParentsTV please reconsider!!! TaranKillam tv is for escaping and this is a nice escape to remember normal. To feel normal. :(

savesingleparents

And yet they keep garbage like The Bachelor/Bachelorette. SMDH..

jackjack106 😞

ABCNetwork WHYYYY SingleParentsTV was so fun and witty. This is so sad.

Good riddance.

Trash!!!!! This is one of their best shows!!!!

SchooledABC got canceled no!!!!!!

As someone who grew up with just their mama, Single Parents was a wonderful, much needed show that masterfully showcased a handful of scenarios as to how these parents got to where they were and how they managed. savesingleparents

Bastards

How the HELL was Single Parents canceled It’s one of the best shows ABC even has on the air. That’s ridiculous. It has an amazing cast, it was funny and it ended on a bit of a cliffhanger. I really hope another network will save it.

PLEASE SAVE THIS SHOW nbc hulu PopTV Showtime

The cast and writers of SchooledABC deserved so much better. It was a high quality sitcom.
