Internet petitions had zero to do with Chuck getting renewed. Cutting the budget by drastically year over year, finding a company who funded a massive in episode product placement campaign (Subway), actors, producers and writers who pushed NBC hard and didn't jump ship, and cutting the episode production are what saved Chuck. And while the producers thanked the internet for the support, that wasn't what had NBC executives change their mind.

As for Kim Possible, didn't follow it. Didn't care about it.

Internet petitions are a dime a dozen. there are hundreds of thousands of them. They require zero effort to "support". It's a lazy mans way of supporting a cause. The support this show needed had to happen months ago. And 5,000 signatures mean nothing in terms of ratings or consumers. It's a far too small amount to mean anything.

And again, if people want to support the show returning, that's awesome. It's just a shame that it wasn't getting the support when it truly mattered.
