Okay, I'll sign, but I don't think it'll do much. There was a Smallville petition going on (same site) about bringing Smallville back to Australian free-to-air television - it didn't happen.

Yep, that's why I said "done and done" (twice).

One in Entertainment, because it's about TV.
And I guess Non-School gets a lot of exposure.

I'm pretty sure it's not coming back, and it hasn't been airing for a while now. They stopped mid-season (Episode 7, Season 2) and Season 2 doesn't end for another 16 episodes (up to Ep 22). They've also moved Smallville from Tuesday nights to Saturday nights and that never increased ratings, not to mention cutting out important dialogue and scenes I believe, from what had been aired in America, compared to what aired in Australia.

I watch all of the American episodes via HDTV so I'm not too worried, but I really want to see it again on free-to-air, to get more people interested in it hehe. :)

Just a tip. If you expect television networks to do what is good for television rather than what is good for profits you are going to find yourself very disappointed.

Hence the reason why I have alternative means of watching television episodes, outside of Australia. :)
