I only caught bits and pieces of the show but it piqued my interest a little. Not enough for me to religiously check it out or anything. But I appreciated the concept. And from what I got of the concept, they were actually <i>going</i> for that cheesey low-budget Hurcules/Xena feel. And from what I saw they kinda captured it. And with something rather independent and probably really original. So kudos to them for that

I've never heard of a petition actually working in these regards. Though I think a move like this is what got Firefly a movie, but it didn't get the series back on. So I guess it can accomplish <i>something</i>
