Maybe if enough people e-mail or write to Discovery / Fit TV that they want Blaine' back with new shows and don't want his show to be taken off the air, they will listen and get him back!!! I just wrote to them myself expressing this. This is just downright wrong to cut him off in mid-stream with so many of his fans watching his progress - COME ON BLAINE FANS! just go to the bottom of this page, and click on where it says: "contact us" - it's worth a try - I've heard of other networks listening to their viewers and putting shows back on after being axed. LETS GO BLAINE-A-HOLICS!!!! Write to them!!!! Let them know how you feel about this!!!
Hi Oyoyman! Yes, as a matter of fact, I have this info: there's a web forum: http://extweb.discovery.com/viewerRelations or try to contact: viewer_relations@discovery.com Come On Blainiacs!!! Don't give up on Blaine!!!! Yours truly, Puff Daddy - oops! I mean puffpattiduke!!!
Hello everyone. Just wanted you to know I reached out to a few people I know that are in the low carb community. His name is Jimmy Moore and he has also lost over 140 lbs and kept it off successfully. He has a low carb blog called livinlavidalowcarb and has just published a book about LC'ng it.
Jimmy is going to look into this later on this evening but I urge all of you to do the same. If there are some Low Carb forums out there that you belong too. Let then know about Blaine, if they do not have FIT TV tell them about the videos they can purchase as well. We need to create a buzz, if you want Blaine back we have to make some noise.
I want you to know that I am an advid fan of Blaines and would like to see him back on your show. The ones you replced him with I do not care to watch, however I do like the gym since I go there daily. Please bring Blaine back, we need his support and with the popularity of the diet on the rise again you are making a mistake by not covering the low carb option.
Hey everyone here is a link to Jimmy's blog. Great guy and what a success story. Please spread the word, make FIT TV aware that we want Blaine back. If you do nothing and Blaine does not come back you can only blame yourself.
Hello, Puff Blaine needs to go. The low-carb fad is over, Atkins is bankrupt, & more people are realizing how bad this diet is. People who consume animal products are also at increased risk for many other illnesses, including strokes, obesity, osteoporosis, arthritis, Alzheimer's, multiple allergies, diabetes, and food poisoning. For the sake of your lives and health, do some research. The evidence is overwhelming & everywhere. Just dig through the propaganda & you will find the truth. God bless you all.

LOL,,, you are so misguided. You will believe anything your gov will tell you. Stop spreading lies on this forum. I can find more research supporting Low Carb that you can against it. There is so much proof that it works but why are you so blind that you will not see it. Feel free to send me an email and I can show you study after study showing the benefits of the LC lifestyle. FAD, I think not, if it was a fad then why are more and more resturaunts cattering to the LC lifestyle and oh yes there is Zero from Coke. I guess they just jumped on the bandwagon a little late and they did not know the low carb FAD was over.
Hey Jimmy you might as well give up, I just found out the low carb lifestyle was a fad and that it does nto work. You better put that 190 lbs you lost back on, and oh yeah your cholesterol levels, well, yeah they need to go back over 200 again. Sorry man! Yeah I know I thought the diet worked too but according to JCRT and begood2u it is just a fad. Thanks for looking out for us.

What drivil...... I'm a walking testimonial to Blaines cooking wizardry.....I'm permanently disabled, and one who has had a heart attack, quintuple coronary by pass, high cholestrol, cancer survivor, and a few more things...Due to my sedentary lifestyle and being only 5'8" , I recently ballooned to 290 lbs, been placed on oxygen, became a diabetic, and Insulin dependant....Since watching Blaines show as well as another, and adopting a better lifestyle in what I eat, I have since been weened off oxygen, weened off insulin, and have cut my oral diabetic meds by 75 %, plus I"ve lost over 60 lbs this year and its staying off....My cholestrol were 450+, now its 140, my triglycerides were 1550+ and now its about 300....ALL BECAUSE I"M EATING BETTER AND EATING LOW CARBED....My EKG is the best its been in over two years and this is the first year my cardiologist did not feel its necessary to take a stress test.....All my doctors feel I should be the poster boy for diabetes control as well as diet....What I cant understand is all this sophomoric bantar about the low carb lifestyle....isnt it time you grow up and stop this jealousy?
I got an automated response asking me to fill out the same form that I originally filled out and told them I wasnt going to duplicate that again....I also told them that all I wanted to know was why?...very simple, just give me an answer....
Yeah I emailed them again and got the same BS you did! Actually I will show you what I received from them:

Same old drivle not answering my questions. Well I am going to boycott there sation for now and I have a friend that is ripping all of his shows for me so there is no need to purchase the dvd and support FITTV anylonger. I am going to put a lock on the station and basically tell them to F off. I know I am one person but I am going to do my part.
Anyways I am still on my lowcarb living healthier than ever and no matter what people say the evidence is there staring them in the face. New research comes out every day supporting the low carb lifestyle and I am happy with my decision following one.
I have stopped watching fit-tv as well because of how cheesy they are treating Blaine and his fans. I come on this board every so often to see if there's any change in Blane coming back. I noticed they switched him to Tues. at 8:00 - (but still no new shows, no new news) - If he is still in demand, (and obviously he is), they should at least let him come back and finish the series, so people can see he succeeded in his efforts. I said it before and I'll say it again: He got a raw deal. As long as they keep him on the air, there is always hope that the executives at fit-tv/discovery will come to their senses and film new shows. COME ON BACK BLAINE!!!!!
Write to them!!!! Let them know how you feel about this!!!
!!! SPEAK UP PEOPLE!!! TELL THEM HOW YOU FEEL!!! WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE!!!
do you have the link or email addy to send them a letter ?
