ACT NOW! Let's Bowl fans
I made the call. It was quick and easy. Please support this quirky little show ...
Hi friends of Let's Bowl:
This morning I spoke with the President of Comedy Central, Bill Hillary, and he informed me that they have just got out of a budget meeting and that they would be making a decision on season three of Let's Bowl in the next month or so. He agreed that the Monday night time slot took the wind out of our sails and said that he'll be meeting with the West Coast office in the next few weeks to decide our future.
After the rerun this Sunday, early in the AM, Let's Bowl is no longer on the schedule. NOW is the time to plead with all your family and friends to CALL ... not email....CALL Comedy Central (212-767-8600) and tell the RECEPTIONIST that you want a third season of Let's Bowl. He/she will then most likely put you through to an answering machine where you can leave the same message.
We are not dead yet and they can take us off the air for good when they pry my bowling ball from my cold dead hands.
Thanks for your support and may all your frames be strikes!

I have never seen Let's Bowl.
I have no desire to see Let's Bowl.
I will likely never watch Let's Bowl.
I called and begged them not to cancel it. The instructions were too easy not to. Hope it helps.

It's the Polka frame!
On a side note: nice to see a fellow DFW-er on DVDTalk......

Another Minnesota-born TV show is going to die by Comedy Central. First MST3K (which did go to Sci-Fi to die again after Comedy Central killed it), now this...beautiful.

I told Rich Kronfeld (Wally) he should do a whole DVD of just his "In the Pin" interviews.

What are they going to replace it with? More episodes of that crack-induced 0.5-second-attention-spam Comic Remix show?
I've only watched Let's Bowl about 5 times, mostly because I can never remember when it's on.. but it was funny those times I did see it.

Final word from LetsBowl.com
Wally ... Chopper ... Ernie ... The Queen Pins ... The Pig ... WILL RISE AGAIN! You hear me!!! This is one Grievance in the Gutter that WILL NOT STAND!!!

Hey friends,
The official word has come, we didn’t get picked up and Let’s Bowl will be cleaning out its locker over at Comedy Central. So Let’s Bowl is on the move and looking for a new network to “bowl over”!
We couldn’t be more pleased that we had the opportunity to produce 20 shows on Comedy Central! The fact that we produced 2 season's of a national cable show in Minnesota is huge and we all really had a great time doing it.
THANK YOU to all of you that called. Some of you wrote friendly emails, showing your support and asking nicely to have the show come back. Some of you wrote mean, ranting emails, venting years of pent up aggression on Comedy Central. Either way, we greatly appreciated it. Your support was overwhelming and only “Strangers with Candy” had more phone calls supporting the show! Great job!
Our website will still be in full force, our set and props are snuggled away in a safe place and our determination and drive are operating at maximum warp.
Don’t be surprised if we show up on another network like oh…say…Games Show Network? (Wink, wink)
Be brave and bowl onward!
