Petition - Queer as Folk movie!

Sorry mods, if this isn't allowed here...

Scott Lowell is asking for help! Check out his Facebook post here: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Scott-Lowell/339055209457239

So, I'm confused. Why does FB tell me that my post about the online petition for more QAF has reached almost 11,500 people (as of 7/2) and yet only 905 have signed the petition? Is FB wrong or are people just not signing? Does the petition not "Work" in all countries? Or is something else preventing people from signing? "Veronica Mars" had over 90,00 backers of their project giving actual money. This is just asking for a "show of hands". I am so very VERY thankful for all who have already signed ... but where are all the thousands of QAF fans who supposedly want to see more? How do we reach them? If this online petition form isn't a good one, is there a better format somewhere? Send a message if you have suggestions. I'd like to get a real feel for how many fans ACTUALLY would want to see more QAF. It's the #1 question any prospective producer is going to want to know: How many will watch? Thanks!!!

And go sign the petition here: http://www.thepetitionsite.com/641/774/746/bring-back-queer-as-folk-to-celebrat-pa-gay-marriage/?taf_id=11199794&cid=fb_na

Spread the word!

I signed it! A movie would be great. Would Brian's view of marriage have changed given the changes since 2005? And would the actors all be willing to come back? I was under the impression Hal Sparks wasn't too happy about some of the other actors dissension over the last (horrible) season.

I think Randy would be the hardest to tempt back. From some interviews I read the producers were pretty awful to him, esp in the later series. I think he couldn't wait to get back to his real passion - theatre. Maybe he'll do it for the fans.

Sharon Gless said in a recent interview all the actors are willing to do a reunion, and Hal Sparks is tweeting about the petition.

Great news. It would be interesting to see what direction the producers take the show. Let's just hope that they do the right thing - I could accept most things with the exception of B/J death.
