Baaa humbug. Loved the show. No very often you get horse and cattle ranching, oil drilling and romance all in the same show in Canada. Every week was exciting and miss it.
April 22nd, 2009 at 7:58 am
I loved this show and waited for it every week. I wish the CBC had given it at least one more season and better promotion. It seems to me that it was under publicized and TV critic John Doyle didn’t like it. I’m a Canadian author and would have considered writing for the series next fall. The CBC’s emphasis on reality shows instead of Canadian dramas is short-sighted. We need more Canadian stories on television.
April 22nd, 2009 at 11:14 am
bah,… Canada makes something good for a change and then cancels it ,… figures, no wonder we all watch yankee shows.
April 22nd, 2009 at 1:50 pm
I had been really excited for this show to air because it had all the ingredients to be a hit but once it came on I was horribly disappointed. It was mis-cast and mis-written (and by saying this I do not not mean the actors were bad cause they weren’t and the writers could write well, they just went in the wrong directions). It tried too hard to be fun and sexy and missed the boat completely. It had vast potential but alas I’m not sad it’s gone.
April 23rd, 2009 at 6:15 am
My favourite show, loved the blow-up season ender. Very sad.
April 24th, 2009 at 7:42 am
C’mon, how could you cancel that show? It rivals any of the good shows from south of the border, is actually in Calgary and surrounding area and is not pretending to be somewhere else. We looked forward to it every week. Great story line and it always left us wanting more every week.
You were onto something good here. Just like that, you dropped everyone, the great actors, the writers, all involved personnel and don’t forget…the viewers. Don’t you get it??? Bring back Wild Roses!!
April 24th, 2009 at 11:21 am
WR was a good show. CBC has once again missed it. the actors were good, the concept behind the show was good, but somehow they can’t seem to tell a story properly. If the cbc hopes that new shows will bring in viewers they’re wrong; until they get writers that are able to give us great storylines they will continue to cancel show after show.
April 25th, 2009 at 2:00 pm
I thought this was one of the best shows on TV. I and my family looked forward to seeing it every week. It truly was about Canadians and places in Canada.
You are fools to have stopped this series.
April 26th, 2009 at 2:32 pm
That totally sucks this show was awesome. The season ender had me screaming…CBC you suck!
April 27th, 2009 at 8:07 pm
I can’t believe its cancelled how will be know what happened at the end. Every time a new show comes on its cancelled. The same thing with Falcon Beach that is a canadian show from winnipeg was cancelled. So pissed off…..
April 29th, 2009 at 10:53 am
Hi, me and my husband love the tv show Wild Roses! We watch it every week and can’t wait for it to come on. Will there be more new episodes aired. If so when? If anyone know anything, please let me know.
We are so disappointed! Come on Canada!!
Thank you,
Cora
April 29th, 2009 at 10:56 am
Cora, the season has ended and it’s cancelled, so no new episodes will air.
April 29th, 2009 at 11:04 am
Thanks Diane, I just realized that it is officially cancelled. I Read it here on this site. Too bad!
April 29th, 2009 at 3:44 pm
leave the show wild rose for the summer .I love the show New show come it’s cancelled CIBC ( SUMMER tV suck)
April 29th, 2009 at 7:21 pm
Come on people, obviously enough people weren’t watching it. It’s appeal was to a very limited audience and therefore died in the ratings. Ratings = $$$. Get over it!
May 1st, 2009 at 8:58 am
Get Out! I loved this show. The characters were fabulous I was hooked:(
May 3rd, 2009 at 1:04 pm
I’m so disgusted, I could scream! WR was such a great show and I eagerly waited each week for the latest episode to air. I just found out today the show has been cancelled! I’m heartbroken….now we will never know what happened after the huge explosion. I feel so cheated because CBC has made a dumb mistake. There is nothing worse than spending 13 weeks watching such a great show and then to have the rug pulled out from underneath you! Disgusting!!!! Boo CbC! Bring back this show…. please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
May 3rd, 2009 at 2:30 pm
I really hope cbc changes their minds and brings back wild roses. I guess there wasnt enough rating, but its was one of the best shows on tv
May 3rd, 2009 at 6:47 pm
I loved the show, I am so disappointed that it is cancelled it was a great show.
May 4th, 2009 at 6:19 am
Why is it that CBC cancels every decent show they have about Canada, Nothing Too Good For A Cowboy canceled, and now Wild Roses. The only other good thing they have is hockey but I’m sure that will be over soon enough. WR was the only good series on TV, everything else is crap all this reality or stories about little rich kids in the US. Wake up CBC you had something good.
May 7th, 2009 at 7:30 am
MY HUSBAND AND i LOVED THIS SHOW AND WATCHED IT EVERY WEEK. ICAN’T UNDERSTAND WHY IT WAS CANCELLED. WE ARE ALWAYS COMPLAINING THAT THERE IS NOT ENOUGH CANADIAN CONTENT ON T.V THIS SHOW WAS ONE OF THE BEST OF ALL THE SHOWS INCLUDING U.S SHOWS PAT.
May 7th, 2009 at 10:27 am
CBC you suck! Wild roses was my favorite show.
May 9th, 2009 at 8:44 am
We are SO disappointed that WR has been canceled. Finally we had something to watch that was great Canadian drama. Every week we mentioned it to different people and they in turn were getting hooked on it too – was certainly beginning to snowball. It here ANY chance CBC will change their mind and bring it back??
May 9th, 2009 at 6:33 pm
I can’t believe that a great show done in Alberta has been canceled. I can’t stand to watch these reality shows that are taking over the air waves. I watched Wild Roses every week and could not wait to see it again the next week. I hope that CBC or someone else can bring the best show back.
May 11th, 2009 at 10:55 am
How could CBC do such a lousy thing like cancelling this show?? It was fantiastic, arguably the best show on tv!!! everyone i knew was hooked!!! CBC SUCKS!!!!
May 11th, 2009 at 10:08 pm
I am so disappointed that CBS has cancelled Wild Roses! I loved this show and couldn’t wait to see it every week. Would you please consider bringing the show back!
May 14th, 2009 at 6:57 pm
As always you get into a good show…make time to watch it get hooked and wham they cancel it at the peek of all the good things happening! We have very few good Canadian shows and this was one of them…they want us to watch more Canadian programs then stop taking off the air all the good ones!
Advertise it better so more get to know about it…Critics don’t know everything the general public is a better judge of what is a good show or not. Critics are such opinionated A**holes why should they decided what I get to watch! This was a great cast with a catchy storyline like any other soap and to make it better it is based on a place I live…Canada! This is a terrible loss for Canadians and the actors that made this show what it was….GREAT entertainment!
May 16th, 2009 at 10:58 pm
Absolutely dissapointing and absolutely fed up with CBC. No longer one of my viewing channels! What the hell is going on over there with CBC, I thought we all agreed we lacked great Canadian content! Congrats CBC has confirmed we have no content.
May 19th, 2009 at 11:44 am
Totally disappointed to hear that Wild Roses is cancelled. You didn’t even give it a chance. Why bother getting excited about any shows on CBC when you are pretty much guaranteed it is going to be cancelled.
May 19th, 2009 at 8:18 pm
Can’t believe the best show on TV got cancelled. Looked forward to this show every week, even got other people hooked on it. Was so looking forward to the new season to start. I am very disappointed in CBC’s decision to cancel it, they finally had a good show on their station that was worth watching.
May 20th, 2009 at 6:53 am
I CAN’T BELIEVE WILD ROSES IS “TOAST”!!!
That’s a mistake!
This was a great show! Couldn’t wait to watch it every week!
Lots of people I know were watching it!
Why not put it on for another season and see if you get more viewers?
Everyone was just getting into this show – being the first season and all. Give it another chance and I am sure that it will prove itself!
It was finally a show that had a good story line, not too much violence, great romance, and lots of ranching stuff all in one show!
BRING BACK WILD ROSES and all the wonderfully talented actors on this Canadian Country show!
May 20th, 2009 at 2:38 pm
I never saw this show on T.V., but when I heard people talk about how good it was I bought the whole season on i-tunes and LOVED it!!!! I watched the whole season in a week! One of the best shows I’ve ever seen, and canadian to top it off. NOT happy that it is cancelled :(
May 22nd, 2009 at 8:20 pm
I was totally in love with this great show and am disappointed that it was cancelled. I wish the CBC would reconsider because they finally had a great CANADIAN show and cancelled it!! So not happy with their decision.
May 25th, 2009 at 4:38 pm
:( I really enjoyed Wild Roses, it’s gonna drive me crazy wondering what the outcome of the final episode would have been. I guess I can just make up my own ending…they all live happily ever after.
May 27th, 2009 at 9:58 am
They should at least have a 2 hour movie to end it?
May 27th, 2009 at 4:33 pm
This was one of my favourite shows!!! I was just checking to see when season two started … only to find out it was cancelled. I can’t believe it was dropped :-(
Better marketing might have improved the ratings; it was a great show.
June 2nd, 2009 at 3:20 pm
i liked wild roses.summer tv is going to suck.
June 2nd, 2009 at 8:33 pm
This was one of the best show cbc did .Canadians would really love it to have it return.With more marketing the show would have been a great sucess.But we has canadians we know that show was great and sucessful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
June 3rd, 2009 at 5:23 pm
It is the best show ever, finally a good family show. What’s wrong with CBC letting it go It’s a good Canadian show and I looked forward to watching it every week. Please bring it back
Jane Hodge
June 13th, 2009 at 3:04 pm
Please CBC put Wild Roses back on it is the best show you’s have on air.
June 17th, 2009 at 9:54 am
aww…too bad Wild Roses cancelled, what a great show and always great ones are cancelled, why is that. Great actors and actresses. PLEASE PUT BACK ON CBC!!!!
June 17th, 2009 at 9:57 am
I’m upset that WR has been cancelled i’m from Quebec and I didn’t miss one episode I think CBC is making a big big mistake. for once we had a great show and they cancelled it that’s CBC for you. Not everybody likes reality shows I know I don’t and I could’nt wait to watch WR it was my favourite show. I would love to meet the person who make the decision what to cancel or what to keep I think that person is on the other side of the track. Sorry to say but CBC your done with me I’ll watch any kind of channel but yours.
June 17th, 2009 at 12:55 pm
Unbelievable. Just when you think someone smart is in charge of CBC, wrong again.
Listen to your viewers or you you won’t be long for the broadcasting world, didn’t you guys loose hockey night in Canada as well???
June 19th, 2009 at 4:56 pm
How awful – I have been waiting-didn’t know it was cancelled. They have kept all kinds of drivel but cancelled all the decent series.
Those sick humor actors must work cheap–cancel the hockey and leave some budget dollars for fine drama
June 19th, 2009 at 7:04 pm
I am just watching the repeat for the seasons’ premier. I can’t believe it was cancelled. My Mom, Grandmother, and her cousin have all asked that I post this e-mail to register our dissapointment. Too bad that when something really good comes along, it’s not recognized. Hopefully someone will come to their senses and reconize this show has a good following!
June 20th, 2009 at 9:00 am
Why air the reruns if the show is cancelled? CBC YOU SUCK! This show was the best thing to come along since Gilmore Girls and you had to leave us hanging.
June 20th, 2009 at 3:20 pm
I THINK BT TAKEING WILD ROSES OFF THE AIR WAS A BAD DECISION AS MYSELF AND ALL OF MY FAMILY ENJOY THE PROGRAM VERY MUCH . WE WERE ALL DISPLEASED TO SEE THAT THE SHOW HAS BEEN CUT . CBC YOU GUYS SUCK. BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
June 20th, 2009 at 4:23 pm
CBC…. you really suck. If it wasn’t bad enough that Wild Roses was cancelled, you truly insulted your viewers by bringing it back as a summer rerun!!! It’s bad enough we will never know the outcome of the last episode but to have it re-air just slaps us in the face a second time because we know there will be no new shows! CBC is cruel!!!!
June 20th, 2009 at 5:21 pm
I am so upset that CBC took wild Roses off the air My whole family watched it every week CBC always does this They cancelled North of 60, Nothing to Good for a Cowboy so whats next Heartland?
Please bring back Wild Roses its the best show !!!
June 22nd, 2009 at 9:11 am
CBC should fire who ever cancelled Wild Roses! IDIOT!!!
June 22nd, 2009 at 9:37 am
I can’t believe it! I have been waiting for the next season – LOVE the show. Why is it that the TV stations don’t give things a chance? GEEZ! They let you get right into it and then pull the plug! This has sure turned me off of CBC thats for sure! This was a great Canadian show.
June 23rd, 2009 at 10:56 pm
It is ridiculous to cancelled such a great show. When will canadians support their own shows instead of swallowing anything that comes from south of the border. I thought this show will run for several seasons. If this is about ratings, my advice is do what Rene Angeli did with Celine Dion, sell it to Europe and then the succes will be recognized by all north americans. Good luck Wild Roses.
June 30th, 2009 at 2:38 pm
THAT REALLY SUCKS BIG TIME…….FINALLY A GREAT SHOW….AND YOU ZAP IT! NOT GOOD CANADA!!
July 3rd, 2009 at 7:03 pm
Holy Crap! I missed this show the first time around and have been catching them on the rerun and I got to say holy crap this is a good show!! They canceled it! I’m shocked. It wasn’t what I expected. I’m three shows in and I’m hooked. WOW CBC canceled this… shocked….
July 10th, 2009 at 9:38 pm
Wild Roses was my favorite show and CBC needs to bring it back for season 2.
July 14th, 2009 at 8:47 pm
July 14, 2009 @8:44 pm
I cant wait for season 2 of Wild Roses. You just can’t leave us hanging like that after they finally struck oil. Season 2 ought to be great.
July 19th, 2009 at 4:37 pm
My fiance and I watched the show every week and couldn’t wait for it to come on each week. Finally a great canadian show and they cancel it
July 24th, 2009 at 4:46 pm
This was a great show, I am sorry it’s gone. Please find away to make it come back for all its FANS.
July 26th, 2009 at 1:53 pm
i really really hate this why are they canceling the show anyway can some one please tell me ??
has any one see heartland great show but like big time not as good as wild roses hope they bring it back…cross your figures every one
July 26th, 2009 at 5:51 pm
My husband and i are so disapointed that they wont be giving this amazing show a chance…….that was really the only show we have really gotten into in a very long time!! Please bring it back!!!! Its one of the best shows on t.v, and it’s CANADIAN!!!!
July 28th, 2009 at 9:30 am
I can’t believe that they cancelled it. This was the only show that my whole family actually sat down and watched. Even my FATHER was in on the show. It was great and i can’t believe they would only let it run for one season and just leave us all hanging! Man, there going to have to try hard to top this show! & it’s CANADIAN!!!!!!!!!
July 31st, 2009 at 8:42 pm
I’d never heard of Wild Roses (way to go, CBC promotions department) until a few weeks ago, tuned in, got hooked. Now I read it’s been cancelled? Unbelievable! No wonder the CBC is such a mess – lure viewers in with a good show containing a Canadian locale, writing, actors, etc., and then scrap it for who knows what reason.
The CBC should downsize upper management and direct the money saved toward nurturing and promoting good homegrown shows such as Wild Roses.
August 3rd, 2009 at 12:49 am
My friend told me about this really great new show on CBC: Wild Roses.
I rarely watch shows on CBC.
I loved this series and the ending was so intense !
Now I’m really disappointed that this show won’t be coming back in September. We will never know what happened to the characters.
August 5th, 2009 at 2:35 pm
I am nothing short of amazed at CBC for canceling Wild Roses. I absolutely adored the series and was completely looking forward to it coming back for a 2nd season. Disappointed.
Like CBC has anything BETTER to replace Wild roses with.
With the excpetion of HNIC (and they couldn’t even keep the rights to the theme song! strike 1 against CBC), Wild Roses was the only other CBC program that was actually watchable, it’s so full of reality junk that there was no point.
This is strike 2 against CBC…doubtful I’ll even give them a 3rd chance…sad.
August 9th, 2009 at 10:27 am
I was just looking at what the fall lineup was and could not believe that CBC had cancelled Wild Roses. Wht’s the problem? did the actors ask for reasonable compensation? It was another excellant show dumped by CBC. I try to watch tv with Canadian content but you make it impossible CBC.
August 9th, 2009 at 10:41 pm
Jeez, I wish I’d found this site earlier as a venue for some of my rantings and ravings. It all started with a simple Google search to try and find out when the new episodes of “Wild Roses” would air…
I now look at the new lineup of “quality programming” that CBC will be treating (read: subjecting) us to this fall. Many of which were funded with the money that wasn’t used to renew the rights to that charming little tune we had grown accustomed to hearing on Saturday nights. How many of these shows do you think will make it past the first two or three episodes?
Oh boy, a skating reality show. Reality shows on CBC don’t have a great track record. Remember the poor-man’s Canadian Idol, “The One” with Stromboulomboulopoulipoulis? Or “How Do You Kill a Network Like Maria?” What’s next, a spinoff on “Triple Sensation,” a quest for Canada’s best Skater/Calligrapher/Spot Welder?
Ah, Ron James. I like the guy really well, but does he really have enough material to cover a series for a full season? Let alone several? Only time will tell.
A spelling bee? Well, CBC recently treated us to “Wheel of Fortune,” so why not more spelling/word games? Can you spell A-G-G-O-N-I-Z-I-N-G? Wait…how many G’s…? Crap. BUZZZZZZZZZ!
18 to Life…The poor man’s take on “Juno” settiling down into marriage. What 30 year olds will they get to play the parts of the teenagers? Hey, Lauzon, Park, Holmes and Brown-Haired-Chickie are probably STILL out of work since “Air Farce” went off the air. By the way, thank God they killed that when they did. Better late than never. Is “22″ getting to that stage, or am I just having a bad day?
“The Republic of Doyle” sounds borderline interesting…if it’s executed properly. I’ve been to Atlantic Canada. Beautiful countryside. If a successful show can come out of Saskatchewan (that’s “Corner Gas” by the way), there’s certainly hope for Newfoundland. I’ll check it out at least.
Ah, the returning gems…Some of them I’ll watch, like Mercer, 22, Den, Strombo, etc. The rest I’ll take or leave. Ah, Little Mosque. I’ve seen the subjects of autopsies display a wider acting range. We get is, they’re “MOS-lems” in rural Saskatchewan, they don’t fit in! Yeesh! Do they have to explain EVERY joke that isn’t a pun?
(Shhh! Don’t tell CBC, but I’ve discovered their formula. Take a random cultural group, and paradigm-shift them into an environment different from their own, and make the conflicts that arise as hilarious (read: ‘meh’) as possible. I’m working on an idea to pitch to CBC execs right now. It’s about a family of Norweigans who immigrate to Canada, but the only place the parents can find work is, wait for it…a car dealership! It’ll be zany, ZANY I tell you! I’ll call it “Oslomobile,” instead of “Oldsmobile.” Get it? Because “Oslo” replaces “Olds” and Oslo is in Norway and Oldsmobile is…a…type…of…car…)
And as far as the “Bring Back ‘Wild Roses’” bandwagon goes…oh heck, I’ll jump on it too! I liked the show. As people have said, the plot twists, the acting in general, it all added up to a decent show. The season finale was one heckuva cluffhanger. Sure, it had it’s flaws (Jude was a loser and Charlotte was naive (read: a tool)), but still, I enjoyed it. At least Adam MacDonald will still be getting a paycheck.
Now, the CBC is desperate to fill their time slots, so they’re not only re-running “Wild Roses,” but they’re pulling long-since fizzled shows like “Da Vinci’s City Hall” and (lack of) “Intelligence” from the archives. Next, it’ll be “North of 60″ and “The Beachcombers” and soon, “The Forest Rangers.” In 2011, expect reruns of “The National.”
Long story short…
*sigh*
…oh heck, I’ll just watch CTV.
August 12th, 2009 at 6:56 pm
I too loved WR when I watched it in it’s first run. I was surprised that CBC would have the audacity to re-run it over the summer! Since they cancelled it – that just means more disappointed viewers who grew to love (or at least like) the show. CBC sucks!
August 13th, 2009 at 11:39 am
Well this sucks… I too was looking to see when Wild Roses was coming back as I wanted to see what happened after the explosion… now I will never know. CBC never gets it right. they have crap on most of the time and that is why I never watch it. If they want to keep viewers why not keep the shows we like? Why force stupid shows down our throats which are not very good on a good day. Spelling Bee shows… what the hell is that. I guess CBC has lost another viewer. See ya.
August 14th, 2009 at 11:54 pm
What the heck is CBC thinking???? Like many viewers have commented that they try & put out more Canadian tv shows (which are complete crap) and they stay on the air for years & years. But one finally comes out and is very good they cancel it. So what is the point to putting Season 1 back on tv right now to tease viewers to think it will be coming back. What a effing joke!!! The money that we as viewers pay for complete crap in the tv listings is a total disgrace. It is pretty bad that I must resort to watching 20 years shows compared to what is on the air today. I would really hope that CBC would rethink their decision and
BRING WILD ROSES BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
August 15th, 2009 at 8:30 am
CBC come on you can’t leave us hanging we have to know what happens,plus this was one of the best shows that was on the whole season,come on bring it back please.
August 17th, 2009 at 6:29 pm
no wonder we have to watch american station at least they stand by their series and don’t let people down. cbc has disapointed us again. if they smarten up they will lose a lot of customer and in these economic trouble time you need to please the people if you want to keep your ratings high.
August 20th, 2009 at 8:07 am
WR reminded me of a modern day Dallas. I loved Dallas and I loved Wild Roses, it was a nice break from reality t.v. I am sooo disappointed
August 22nd, 2009 at 1:54 pm
CBC did it again..cancelled a great show…never missed a week and looked forward to it returning in the fall. They want Canadians to watch Canadian content and then they go and take off one of the only few good shows on CBC and thats why I never watch it…boring tv….doesnt make one proud of being Canadian…
August 23rd, 2009 at 6:25 pm
I am very sad to learn that WR has been dropped from the CBC line up, perhaps a progressive American network will
revive it.
Next time the government reduces the funding for CBC I will understand why !
August 24th, 2009 at 9:46 am
I thought I would give CBC one more chance after cancelling ‘MVP’ last year, but now that they have cancelled Wild Roses I never care to watch the network again. CBC-you are truly pathetic. It is any wonder we as Canadians are so inclined to watch American t.v.?!
August 25th, 2009 at 3:18 am
Up until today I have been waiting for the return of Wild Roses, I can’t believe they cancelled it. CBC sucks. Must be making room for more of those stupid reality shows(enough already). I guess I’ll make my own ending.
August 25th, 2009 at 12:39 pm
The best show i’ve seen in a while in canadian television. Plot line was intersting so actors just wonderful.
You got to bring it back.
THanks.
August 25th, 2009 at 12:42 pm
Wild Roses was our canadian version of Dallas but with a better story.
THere are too many crime shows on TV and this is different. Please bring it back.
August 25th, 2009 at 4:40 pm
I was disappointed when Wild Roses was cancelled. But what really puzzles me is that you are running the old shows again. Is this just to tick off even more people when they get to the end and are left hanging because they will never get to see how it all worked out. There are very few shows I watch faithfully but this was one I did. If I was unable to watch it at the regular time I would boot up the computer. The least you could do is have one big final show .
August 25th, 2009 at 5:31 pm
Wild Roses was a great show. CBC you suck. Bring it back
August 25th, 2009 at 6:06 pm
Finally a good canadian show and they cancel it…..what the hell!!!!
What where they thinking.
Everyone I know watched this show…..I can’t believe that there weren’t the numbers…..people I know who missed it the first time are hooked on the reruns.
CBC needs to change their minds and bring it back.
August 27th, 2009 at 3:21 am
Please bring back Wild Roses, it’s an awesome show with everything going on. I never missed it and now I am watching the reruns. THANKS
August 27th, 2009 at 1:22 pm
I loved that it was a canadian show, not to mention that it was awesome! Bring it back CBC!
August 29th, 2009 at 5:27 am
How can cbc be convinced to bring back wild roses??? so many people love the show
August 31st, 2009 at 3:50 pm
I loved this show and have waited since the end of last season to find out what happens. I can’t believe it’s cancelled, I’m sure it’s spot won’t be filled with anything that will compare.
August 31st, 2009 at 5:19 pm
I can’t believe it!!! Last year was the first time since I was a child that I actually watched CBC. I was pleasantly surprised and told all my co-workers about the great shows. It makes me wonder who the hell is running the network. Idiot comes to mind. Finally a show to rival those on American networks and what do they do, pull the plug!! Why couldn’t they give it a 2nd season, change the night and time slot, something, anything to give the show another try. We are always told that we as viewers have a voice. What BS that is, they have no intention of listening to us. HUGE MISTAKE. CBC. Fix it!!
September 2nd, 2009 at 2:45 pm
Loved the show!!!!! Saying I’m so disappointed is an understatement. Not many shows worth watching on TV these days.
September 3rd, 2009 at 5:49 pm
Bring back Wild Roses, Great show CBC, don’t let us down, I too finally watched some CBC
September 3rd, 2009 at 8:51 pm
I liked the show but i believe that they canceled it they over did it putting to much into one season i watched it but only because it was addicting it wasn’t that great and things were changing to often and constantly
September 4th, 2009 at 12:07 pm
I truly loved and enjoyed Wild Roses! I just found out it is not coming back. Canadian television sucks really bad and finally a show that could compete with American programs and you take it off. What a huge disappointment!
September 4th, 2009 at 6:40 pm
This is what makes CBC a loser channel.No one listens to the peoples views. If it don`t make the big money in the first season ,it is history. I know CBC is history for me ! reruns is an insult to my intelligence .Reality shows are not for everybody. They suck like CBC does.Da! Wake up !!
September 4th, 2009 at 8:06 pm
I’m so disappointed! I loved this show.
September 5th, 2009 at 3:29 pm
Both my husband & our entire family are really upset about this shows cancellation.
I guess we will have to watch American TV as Wild Roses was the only Canadian show we enjoyed.
September 5th, 2009 at 5:46 pm
Watched the finale last night so it would be fresh in my mind for the new season. Alas it’s cancelled. Guess, everyone died in the explosion. CBC yet again makes another boo boo. Help. we need a network more sophisticated that CBC to realize the potential that this Canadian soap could have!
September 6th, 2009 at 7:49 am
I LOOKED FORWARD TO THIS SHOW, I ACTUALLY TOOK THE LAST 4 HRS OF MY SHIFT OF JUST SO I COULD WATCH IT, AND NOW I FIND OUT ITS BEEN CANCELLED, OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO,THAT REALLY HURTS, THIS WAS A REALLY GOOD SHOW, MY HUSBAND ALSO WAS A FAN, CANT BELIEVE THAT YOU ARE JUST GOING TO LEAVE IT, SHAME ON YOU CBC.
September 6th, 2009 at 10:38 am
This is a joke, CBC shoots itself in the foot AGAIN! They did the same thing with Due South and look how successful it became and still is. I LOVE the fact that it’s actually shot in and around Calgary and has a real following.But you know what this is the ONLY country where we are continually shooting ourselves.
September 6th, 2009 at 11:53 am
I was very sorry to see that Wild Roses is not going into a new season. It was a great show… real Canadian content, drama, romance, history, even educational, and beautifully filmed. I looked forward to it every week, and loved the shocking ending. Now we will never get to know what happened after the explosion. What a shame…
September 6th, 2009 at 12:23 pm
Debbie, Due South was CTV, not CBC.
I hope all of you are expressing your concerns to CBC, too, not just leaving messages on this unaffiliated website.
September 6th, 2009 at 6:02 pm
How disappointing. My family faithfully watched the show and the reruns and were so looking forward to it restarting. A canadian version of dynasty with romance, intrigue, canadian scenery and names. A final version would be great to give closure to the story
September 6th, 2009 at 8:09 pm
love that show. Wild Roses was anew exciting show to watch, will miss it.
September 7th, 2009 at 10:18 pm
Found this show in reruns. Just moved to Canada from the states. What a great show… and it is cancelled? Why does a quality show get cancelled and other shows on CBC that are frankly not very good remain. Who is making these bad decisions at the CBC. Perhaps they should be cancelled!!!
September 8th, 2009 at 7:27 pm
Can’t believe it’s cancelled!! It’s the only program we changed plans to watch last winter. Have been waiting all summer to see what happened after the last episode. It was so nice to see something we could relate to on TV being northern Alberta residents. Hopefully therw will be a change of plans!!!
September 8th, 2009 at 8:13 pm
I wonder if this post has the most comments on this website?
September 8th, 2009 at 8:15 pm
Bring back wild roses
September 9th, 2009 at 1:16 pm
We are so disappointed that this show is being cancelled. It is a rarity for a Canadian show to be so interesting and entertaining especially produced by CBC. Wild Roses and Heartland were our 2 favorite shows for 2008/2009 TV season. We can’t believe that a quality show like this would be cancelled!
September 11th, 2009 at 12:28 pm
How could you do that, CBC, cancel the very best show on TV!!!
Finally a series my husband and I were looking forward to on Friday nights, and now it’s gone !?!
There’s a lot of us “Wild Roses fans” who’d love to have that show back !!!
So PLEEEEEAZZZE, CBC, do the right thing : Bring the Roses back !!!
Thank you, thank you !!!!!
September 12th, 2009 at 4:57 pm
Wow – I went to look for the date this would be starting up again, and am so sad to hear it was canceled. CBC, you should really have really marketed this better and given it a fighting chance, it was a great show.
September 12th, 2009 at 9:04 pm
WR was, make that is, a great show. Between the gore and crime on mainstream TV, it was a refreshing, yet exciting piece of Canadian work that stood well against any US or British drama. CBC has repeated its history of poor judgement and disappointed viewers that were finally tuning in. The show appealed to all ages and was well done. CBC get your act together and bring back Wild Roses.
September 13th, 2009 at 5:07 pm
Really disappointed with decision made by CBC. Wild Roses was totally awsome. Looked forward to seeing it every week. And now it’s cancelled! Why? May be everyone should stop watching CBC all together and let your ratings fall. Thanks for the cliffhanger!
September 13th, 2009 at 8:24 pm
I can not believe that WR is cancelled. How can you do that CBC after the season finale. You are disapointing many Canadians. Just another reason not to watch Canadian tv you always cancel the good show and leave the crappy one on that nobody watches but get showen on every fricken commercial break possible. WR was a wicked show that my whole family including extened family watched EVERY week. I am highly disapointed in CBC.
September 14th, 2009 at 8:39 am
I can’t believe they are cancelling Wild Roses ! I watched it every week and when I missed it, I bought it off of iTunes ! My absolute favourite show. :( It was the best season finale, I watched it over and over again !! Why are they cancelling it ? Im sure they had a lot of viewers. Im very disappointed in CBC. And they wonder why we watch American shows, because when a good Canadian one comes around, they cancel it ! :(
September 14th, 2009 at 4:21 pm
Can’t believe CBC cancelled Wild Roses! Oh Yes I can! I finally watched something on CBC besides the news. IT HAD CANADIAN CONTENT. My whole family watched it. So sad, it will probably be replaced by something from the BBC. They did the same thing last year with MVP. They didn’t give it a chance!
September 14th, 2009 at 4:59 pm
I’m also disappointed the show will not be returning. My son and I really enjoyed viewing this show together.
Hope CBC changes this decision
September 14th, 2009 at 6:37 pm
Can’t believe there was something more than worth while watching for a change and it gets cancelled for what, to make room for some more of those reality shows that REALLY suck!!!!!! Wild roses gave me something to look forward to watching and am very disapointed to see it cancelled SHAME ON YOU CBS…………
September 15th, 2009 at 1:50 pm
I can’t believe CBC cancelled this show? Canada has the worse t.v. programs to start and they finally get something really good and they cancel it, after one season. The heads of CBC need to get their heads out of their ###’s and turn on their t.v.’s and watch the S##t shows they are producing that no one watches. They need to re-think this one !
September 16th, 2009 at 9:42 am
I can’t believe it! I just found out that Wild Roses is cancelled?! Wow what a shock! I absolutely loved this show and never missed an episode! The finale was a cliffhanger and you people at CBC expect us all just to sit and “think” of a happing ending? What is wrong with you people? Why on earth would you go and cancel such a great Canadian show. We don’t see many great Canadian shows on TV now a days and the one and only one that is the best you guys go and cancel it? Again I have to repeat myself what the heck is wrong with you? I am so disappointed it can spit! I was waiting so eagerly till the fall to see it come back on again and to see this today was a total shock and I am so disgusted with the CBC, how can you possibly just drop such a great show? I live in Ontario and I am from Alberta, every time I watched this show it makes me think of home. If there were something for all of the fans to do to make you reconsider tell us! I’d do anything to get it back. Please can’t you reconsider????
September 16th, 2009 at 10:43 am
I just found this website and realized that Wild Rose will not be returning this fall. How can we change this? It was such a great show. All my coworkers and friends watched it.
September 16th, 2009 at 10:45 am
A very disappointing day when you find out the best canadian series ever will not be returning…… This was a great family show and was as in alot of household one hour the whole family could spend together. what is wrong woth the people at the cbc???????? They obviously don’t know a good thing when they see it or maybe that is the problem they themselves have not watched the series … I think that they should reconsider as the consequences are going the be hard on the CBC. Can you really afford to lose all these viewers to an American Broadcast?
September 16th, 2009 at 2:19 pm
I can’t believe CBC has once again cancelled a great Canadian show. It is as if CBC doesn’t seem to care about retaining an audience. Oh well don’t worry if they don’t make enough money the government will bail them out. Maybe that’s why they cancel good shows because they would prove they can make money!!!! CRTC is always bellyaching about more Canadian content…how does that happen if CBC always cancels shows. I also liked Wind at my Back that was suddenly cancelled mid-story!!! Then there was the Guard a great story about the Canadian Coast Guard. I agree with another writer, that’s why we watch Yankee shows at least if they are cancelled there is notice and some kind of planned ending.
September 16th, 2009 at 4:12 pm
I am so disapointed………i was so looking forward to season 2……You have to bring it back……it was incredible. GOOD CANADIAN T.V.
What or how could we change this decision. You have to bring it back. Don’t leave us hanging like this…………………
September 17th, 2009 at 12:28 am
Both my husband and I truly enjoyed the show Wild Roses. It was a great plot and nice for a change to have a ‘Canadian’ show that has substance and that us Canadians can all relate to.
Would have been nice if the show had been given one more season to see its full potential. Very unfortunate for all of us fans who thoroughly enjoyed a good weekly series. We’ve all been waiting for one and now it’s been taken away.
September 17th, 2009 at 9:43 pm
very very sad
loved this show
its to bad they won’t even give us one more to show us how
the cliff hanger they gave us ended
September 19th, 2009 at 4:45 pm
Way to go CBS, another great show gone! When will you learn!
Doesn’t the “C” in CBS stand for Canadian? Where is your loyalty
I agree with Rosa, the consequences are going to be hard for CBS, I know this family household will not be watching CBS shows.
Bring back Wild Roses, one of the best drama’s on T.V.
September 21st, 2009 at 10:38 am
I don’t really watch tv very often as there is so much junk on the tube but I must say that my family and I would sit back and relax together to watch this very interesting show. Each week we’d wait with anticipation for the next episode. I, myself couldn’t wait for the Fall season to see what would happen to these two families after the explosion. CBC even rerun the series this past summer. We’ve been left up in the air and we’re very disappointed. Bring back Wild Roses, A.S.A.P.
September 22nd, 2009 at 11:19 am
Well this sucks… I too was looking to see when Wild Roses was coming back as I wanted to see what happened after the explosion… now I will never know. CBC never gets it right. they have crap on most of the time and that is why I never watch it. If they want to keep viewers why not keep the shows we like? Why force stupid shows down our throats which are not very good on a good day. Spelling Bee shows… what the hell is that. I guess CBC has lost another viewer. See ya.
September 22nd, 2009 at 2:57 pm
This sucks!!!!!
Another great show gone up in smoke. I was just wondering when the series was starting up again and to my surprise the network cancels yet another of my favorites.
September 22nd, 2009 at 3:14 pm
funny. I knew when I was working on this that despite lukewarm critical response that this show could havebeen a hit and get a loyal audience. I agree with all of you that this was not swell thought out decision.
September 22nd, 2009 at 6:25 pm
Here I am waiting for the new season to start and I find out it has been cancelled. I guess you can’t expect anything better from our beloved CBC. The CBC ‘Can Be Crap’. Bring it back at least for one more season. It was the best!
September 22nd, 2009 at 9:08 pm
Very disapointed!! This show was fantastic, made me want to move out West!!! It was my favorite show on television, any chance it will come back ??? Or does cancelled mean NEVER???
September 25th, 2009 at 3:27 pm
Looking for Wild Roses in the CBC fall line up. I was surprised to see that it was not coming back on. The actors were great, the show was great. Why bother turning the tv back on if all that canadain broadcasting is going to do is follow in the americans footsteps of reality tv. crap tv.
September 26th, 2009 at 9:20 am
We really enjoyed the show. Ranching, horses and oil in Alberta is great. They need to bring the show back. Give it another season at least. Very disappointed!!!
September 27th, 2009 at 4:50 pm
I’m from the United States (Michigan) and watched Wild Roses every week (I get CBC and other Canadien stations with my HD rabbit ears). I have to say, the show was better than the crap that is on American television (FOX, CBS, etc). I enjoyed watching Wild Roses and will miss it. It was a breath of fresh air and wished i moved out to the Canadien West. CBC, please think about other viewers south of the border!
Please bring Wild Roses back, or at least make a 1 or 2 hour conclusion episode. Please don’t leave us hanging on what happened after the explosion! JMalak (Clinton Township, MI, United States of New America)
September 28th, 2009 at 11:46 am
I am so sorry you cancelled it. It was a great show.
September 28th, 2009 at 1:05 pm
I really loved the show and always looked forward to it. I am very disappointed it is not on anymore. There isn’t much on TV that really interests me. I like Little Mosque and I’m surprised it hasn’t been cancelled because the good ones are cancelled. I guess I will continue reading more and renting movies.
September 28th, 2009 at 4:53 pm
I was so hoping it would be back again this season. Maybe it will come back again in January, PLEASE!!!!
September 28th, 2009 at 6:38 pm
I was hoping to find out when the second season was to start…Only to be sadly disappointed to hear that it is cancelled. Such a great show, our whole family would watch it every week together. I really hope they come to there senses and try another season. There are worse shows on out there that should of been cancelled! Is it to much to ask to have a family enjoy something together anymore!!!
September 29th, 2009 at 9:33 am
Wild roses was the reason I watching some CBC but heck guess its back to American tv again !!!! sad
Who are these people in head office ??????
Listen to the People after all we are paying your salary
September 29th, 2009 at 2:44 pm
I cannot believe that I finally found a TV show that was worth watching and it is gone! How about the cliffhanger…what is suppose to happen next?
No wonder I read (a good thing) and we don’t have cable (a good thing)!
Blah to reality junk shows and people who couldn’t write if they tried.
October 1st, 2009 at 4:44 am
wild roses was the best show on tv.
when it came on everything else in our house came to a stop.
the whole family watched it.
everyone i talked to just loved the show.
bring back WILD ROSES
October 1st, 2009 at 8:37 am
What!…
Support canadian shows,
Yeah! Great!
One of the best shows on canadian tv.
BRING IT BACK!!
October 1st, 2009 at 7:47 pm
I couldn’t believe that this good of a show actually came from CBC. This was the first canadian show that my family actually found “worth watching”. I missed the first few episodes…..until my friend filled me in on what a good show it was……so I was excited this summer, to catch up on the few I had missed…..so I was all ready for the new season!
Then, much to my dissappointment…..I found out it had been cancelled. Who the hell makes these descisions??????? It was one of the best shows on tv…..canadian or american. I don’t get it.
I feel sorry for the cast, as they all did a great job. And I feel sorry for the viewing public……because we lost one of the best shows on TV……and now we’ll never know what happened.
I really hope some “exec” from CBC reads these comments, and realizes what a great show they had…..and how many fans there were, and brings it back on the air…….WE WANT MORE WILD ROSES!!!!!!
October 1st, 2009 at 9:34 pm
wild roses was one of the best tv shows to come out of canada it would have been a big hit if they had of given it a chance or they should finish it up with a movie!!! bring back wild roses bring back wild roses bring back wild roses bring back wild roses…………………………………………ect. my family loves the show
October 2nd, 2009 at 4:06 am
write or email CBC to complain. They should never be allowed to end a show with a cliff hanger!!!!!!
October 2nd, 2009 at 12:49 pm
why did a old canadian comedian take over a clean romantic widerness family show?
Please fix this mess !!!!!!
October 2nd, 2009 at 5:11 pm
WHY!!!!!!!!!!! I can t believe that CBC has cancelled this amazing show it was like DALLAS of the 80’s and the fact that it was supposed to play on Friday nights at 9:00 I was sooooo looking forward to it any many otheres were as well…..OH well I guess I will quit TV as all they seemed to do now is REALITY shows……So sad :(((
October 2nd, 2009 at 6:28 pm
I cant beleiave they cancelled wild rose did the mom really die
October 4th, 2009 at 4:51 pm
I can’t believe you are not going to pick up “WILD ROSES” This is a great show!!!!! Get rid of some of the crap that is on and put good shows like Wild Roses back on.
October 4th, 2009 at 9:12 pm
Finally a great show,not some stupid reality show and they cancell it, with out really givin it a true shot,tv is really starting to suck big time………
October 5th, 2009 at 5:16 pm
I cant believe they cancelled this show I am so pissed what is wrong with CBC?????? Like everyone has said on this website finally something decent to watch and now its gone. These pencil pushing bastards better put it back on.
October 6th, 2009 at 9:55 am
Unbelievable, another good Canadian show cancelled. There is very little good TV to watch these days and this was one of the good shows my family looked forward to watching. Give me a break CBC you cancel this and and broadcast the likes of Ron James. Disgusting.
October 6th, 2009 at 6:24 pm
CBC finally “had” something worth watching … i am from Saskatchewan and loved Wild Roses. i also have a lot of friends who are very dissapointed in CBC for dropping it. i also watch Heartland and love it as well … you can have all the rest of the shows … they aren’t worth my time. only time i go to CBC now is for Heartland. BRING BACK WILD ROSES!
October 7th, 2009 at 5:12 pm
I was very dissapointed to hear about Wild Roses, I was waiting all summer for it to come back on…leave it up to CBC.
October 9th, 2009 at 12:55 pm
Loved the show! The least the CBC should do is a 2 hour special to tie up loose ends and tell viewers what happens to the characters.
October 9th, 2009 at 7:57 pm
Someone has to be let go,( executive type) who cancelled this and allowed ” Little Mosque on the priarie” to do one episode ( one to many) and allow this kind of crap to continue instead of Wildrose is beyond belief.I only watched 2 programs on CBC and now I am down to one .
Way to go CBC you would never listen to your critic’s thats why you have a great number of people who care less if you were shut down.
October 11th, 2009 at 10:29 am
I agree with those who miss WR. I am very disappointed, & to think we now have Ron James, a Canadian who moved to the US & couldn’t make it so he comes back to Canada! 2 much! BRING BACK WR!!
October 12th, 2009 at 4:35 pm
I agree totally with all of the above 154 comments (2 excluded). I sent the address of this web site to the CBC contact site – http://www.cbc.ca/contact/ – to let them know how I feel, and the other 154 above comments. Hopefully all have done this. As a group all we can do is hope. I too wish that this program would be continued. It wasn’t until now that I found out it had been cancelled, started to search when Wild Roses was to be aired and BOOM found this info. So sad.
October 13th, 2009 at 4:20 pm
Why on EARTH did they cancel such a GREAT SHOW… Give me a break there are plenty of shows on that should have been dumped not this one. Its getting real sad that Canadian shows are being dropped left right and centre. I hope that with enough of us they bring it back,,, Come on CBC get with the program, drop some of the stupid reality shows,, So you think you can Dance and there are a few more, if this continues there will be no more Canadain Programing at all.
October 14th, 2009 at 1:10 pm
Why on Earth did you cancel Wild Roses it was a Great Show bring it back on T.V. That show was my favorite T.V. Show along with Heartland. Bring it Back!!!!!!
October 16th, 2009 at 5:19 pm
Really disappointed Wild Roses was canceled!!! My husband watched it every Friday night. Cannot believe it is not coming back this fall. So Canadian and so great! We need it back!
October 16th, 2009 at 9:07 pm
BRING IT BACK!!!! i look forward to watching a handful of show’s every week, but wildroses was my favourite… and it only took ONE episode to get me hooked, that hardly ever happens…
October 17th, 2009 at 6:31 pm
My husband and I are very disappointed that Wild Roses was cancelled; we didn’t miss an episode last year and were waiting for the second season to begin. Come on CBC, bring it back.
October 18th, 2009 at 3:56 pm
I finished teaching Pilates at 8:30pm and drove 1 hour every tuesday nite last winter so I could watch my favorite show – never missed an episode. Lived in calgary 12 years of my 19 away from the Eastern Townships of QC where I grew up on a horse farm and my mother still has to this day where my daughter & I still ride our own!
Please bring it back – first Cnaadian show I really got hooked on and had looked forward to all Summer after that last explosive cliff hanger!!!
Not fare and why???
Surely there weren’t only 163 of us watching – it was too good to be missed or heard about?
Please reconsider,
Cat
P.S.: my daughter & I watch Heartland every Sunday nite together
October 18th, 2009 at 5:29 pm
I am so Disappointed ……..I was looking forward to this show returning, it had great potential to be the Next Dallas. There were so many storylines that could have been played out. It was great hearing names Like Calgary, Red Deer and Edmonton. I felt like I was part of the show. I would go to work and tell everyone about this show and that it was worthwhile to watch.
October 18th, 2009 at 6:07 pm
Terribly disappointed!
Just when we get into a good show, it is cancelled!
Whar is wrong with our Canadian T.V.?
October 19th, 2009 at 12:28 pm
VERY DIASAPPOINTED!!!!!! I WATCHED EVERY EPISODE, AND LOOKED FORWARD TO THE NEXT ONE EVERY WEEK. FINALLY CBC HAD CLUED INTO WHAT THE PUBLIC WANTED TO WATCH AND THEN THEY CANCEL IT. BEING FROM NORTHERN ALBERTA AND OIL COUNTRY IT WAS GOOD TO WATCH A SHOW THAT RELATED TO THINGS ACTUALLY HAPPENING IN THE AREA. THEY REALLY SHOULD RECONSIDER AND GIVE IT ANOTHER CHANCE.
October 20th, 2009 at 2:26 pm
I’m so sad this program has been cancelled. It was fun and silly and irreverent. Even my husband was starting to enjoy it. It was such a nice change from “reality” and forensics.
October 20th, 2009 at 3:46 pm
I did not realize wild roses was cancelled. I have been anxiously awaiting for the new season and very disappointed not to see it return.
October 21st, 2009 at 8:38 am
Come on Canadain Television keep up with other countries! Everyone I know has been waiting for the show to start, very sad to hear it was cancelled. Great show and cast, BRING IT BACK!
October 21st, 2009 at 1:59 pm
I can’t believe they’ve cancelled Wild Roses. For once they actually get a decent show on the air and now it’s gone. I so looked forward for to that show every week. We’d talk about it at work and discuss the excietment for could happen next week. CBC should be ashamed of themselves for letting a godd show get away. I’ve been waiting for the show to start and now….
Also at the fact that it was a local taped show made it even better. They didn’t try to fake where it was shot. You actually knew where it was.
What a disappointment CBC is. BRING IT BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
October 21st, 2009 at 8:54 pm
WAITING FOR THE NEW SEASON!!, FINALLY Googled it & its canceled!! how crappy is that. good show
October 23rd, 2009 at 4:59 pm
Very Sad..a really great show, what were they THINKING??? I was really looking forward for season 2. SAD, SAD, SAD.
October 23rd, 2009 at 6:38 pm
CBC !! you are the one’s making Canadiens watch U S Show’s well you just have lost another viewer. thanks you’ve done it once more….
October 24th, 2009 at 5:55 am
hello cbc
get the picture
BRING BACK WILD ROSES
October 24th, 2009 at 11:39 am
Bring back Wild Roses!!!!!!
October 26th, 2009 at 10:46 pm
Very disappointed,we watched every episode.Bring it back.
October 27th, 2009 at 6:40 am
Someone just asked me, what was my fav T.V. program, so I decided to look it up on the internet, cause I also wanted to know when the 2nd season would be airing. Leave it to CBC to drop the ball big time on this awesome show, as it was destined to become as popular as Dallas was. Perhaps we will get lucky & an American Network will pick it up. Whats next to go CBC…N.H.L. broadcast?
Now to any of the cast or crew of the show that might read this, thank you & god bless you all with continued success in all you do. Bernie
October 29th, 2009 at 7:37 am
All I can say is my husband & I are EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED that Wild Roses has been cancelled. We never missed an episode. It was the best hour on CBC. You’ve just lost 2 more viewers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
October 29th, 2009 at 11:15 am
I can’t believe that the show has been cancelled!!!!! Why do you have to take off a good show and leave us with CRAP to watch???????? Not happy with CBC!!!
October 29th, 2009 at 12:28 pm
I was very sad to discover that Wild Roses was not going to be on the air any longer.This was my favorite program. CBC should know a good show when they see it and bring it back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!It was a show my whole family watched and enjoyed.I’m disappointed in canadian television:(.Bring back Wild Roses
please!!!
October 30th, 2009 at 10:32 pm
We finally thought Canadian Drama was coming of age …such a pity the CBC can’t do so as well.
November 1st, 2009 at 2:48 pm
I loved Wild Roses. It was one of my favorite shows last year. Could not wait for it to start again after the amazing ending. Please bring it back.
November 1st, 2009 at 3:26 pm
I’ve been waiting and waiting for Wild Roses to start. Just checked the computer to realize it’s cancelled!!What is wrong with CBC? Guess they don’t like popular shows!!!
BRING IT BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
November 4th, 2009 at 3:09 pm
I, we, have been looking every week for the return of Wild Roses – so decided to google it — and much to my dismay — if find out that it has been cancelled. NOT happy — finally a Canadian show that one could relate to . This is one of the BEST Canadian shows ever — not smart on CBC’s part. How could they, CBC take off this program and leave us with some of the ???….. shows that remain.
We, are very disappointed and sincerely hope that whom ever made the decision to cancel — see the error of their ways and return Wild Roses to our Canadain line up. Finally thought that the Canadaian programers were showing the world that we Canadian’s can produce quality programing — don’t let the Canadian public down. Boarder and Wild Roses,,,, are the BEST !!! Wake up and give us quality Canadian programming back — enough with the silly programs.
November 7th, 2009 at 8:23 pm
what!?!? cancelled? why? i loved that show :(
November 10th, 2009 at 7:53 pm
I really enjoyed the wild Rose show it was great to watch each week I could hardly wait to sit down and watch it , why would someone cancel something that was a good thing, please bring it back My family was
really enjoying it.
November 14th, 2009 at 9:40 pm
I was waiting for it to come back on. I want it back. It was like Canadian Dallas. It was really good. Drama, sex, betrayal and loyalty. It was great!

Why would you cancel such a great show
we love the show
BRING BACK WILD ROSES
November 15th, 2009 at 8:25 pm
I am very disappointed in the CBC. They won me back to their viewership last year with the launch of “Wild Roses” and “Being Erica,” after a long absence due to poor programming. My family and I looked forward to it every week, thinking that Canadian television dramas were finally getting it together and giving us something worth watching!
CBC, WAKE UP and listen to your viewers. Bring back “Wild Roses.” Just do it…

My Husband asked me last week to find out when Wild Roses was coming back and I’m so dissapointed to find it has been cancelled. Never thought to look before because it was such a great show and had no idea that it was in peril.
Please bring it back!!!!!

I loved Wild Roses and I’m REALLY disappointed it’s not on this season. WHY was it cancelled????
November 17th, 2009 at 7:15 pm
Why was this show cancelled???? Why is it just when we get something good someone else decides it’s no good ? Come on CBC put it back on. Isn’t this called Canadian content? I remember the days we had to watch ballet every Sunday night. Ugh!!!

Like many others i too would like to know why this show has been cancelled. We enjoyed it and especially because it was Canadian.

I keep trying to submit my comment and it keeps telling me that it is a duplicate comment. I have not commented before now. I would really like to offer my support as well.

I can not believe that Canada finally got it right and put out a great show and dropped it. I guess it is true that we Canadians dont believe in doing it right.
Each week I looked forward to this show and was waiting impatiently for the new season. Guess I will look elsewhere like the American tv for my pleasure. Here they keep telling us to support local tv but why dont they supply local people.

The show did have some really good points – good overall story line, good acting, nice production values. It did suffer from realism in the details that I found annoying. In the first episode, for instance, one of the guys bets his brother Porsche in a poker game and loses it. Of course his brother gets annoyed. In real life that wouldn’t have been a problem – it wasn’t his to lose (it’s kind of hard to register a car in Alberta if you don’t have a sales contract from the previous owner).
Many stereotypes like that were shown in each episode about Calgary which, although is probably needed for dramatic license, did lower its appeal for me, and other people I talked to.

CBC bring back Wild Roses, it was one of the better CBC shows!!!!!!
November 25th, 2009 at 7:09 am
I just want to….
November 25th, 2009 at 7:10 am
…get this thread to 200.
November 25th, 2009 at 10:57 am
pure awesome. when the cbc cancels “heartland”, i wonder if that thread will hit 200.

If CBC doesn’t want it maybe they should try and take it to CTV, and see if they will air the show (Medium switched from NBC to CBS, so why not). It was a good Canadian show and with some more promotion I think more people would tune in.
November 29th, 2009 at 8:48 pm
Very disappointed in CBC I kept waiting for the second season to come on and nothing. So I googled it to find out that it was cancelled. Why does Canadian TV never follow through. There are so many shows that could of been cut and they pick this one.
December 1st, 2009 at 8:43 am
please bring back wild roses – great canadian show
December 2nd, 2009 at 11:03 pm
I loved the show. A Canadian version of Dallas. I think it’s a shame that this show got cancelled. Of all the new shows out there I think this one should have been kept, it could have been a hit. If it had been more advertised people would have been hooked. Too bad, I think this show would have lasted as long as our other famous Canadian show The Beachcomers. Hope it will make another debu.

We finally get a decent series set in the west & CBC cancels it!!! You can bet if it would have been a series based in an eastern city we would have had it!!! Bring it back—-we loved it!!!!!
December 8th, 2009 at 3:29 pm
Well, you still have Heartland. That’s more than Vancouver can say right now.
December 11th, 2009 at 11:11 am
You sooo suck C.B.C…. That was the besy show. I swear i will never watch c.b.c ever again. I use to watch the hockey games there instead of my center ice, but not anymore. God you suck C.B.C.

I can’t believe I am contributing to this forum, I just don’t do this kind of thing, but…
I never get caught up in tv series because I don’t watch too much tv (on purpose) but I was instantly attracted to this show from the 1st time I watched it. Then when I found out it was Canadian, I was very impressed. I actually tuned in to the following shows more often than not, and found that each show had an intriguing plot to it, and the characters were great, especially Gary Hudson (I just googled it to find out his name), man was he good in the role of the evil oil tycoon, I loved him, er hated him, you know the feeling you get when someone acted so well, you get into their character. And his daughter was so evil, and well I could go on but I’d rather not just now.
Anyhow, CBC, IF YOU READ THIS, promote it much better, and bring it back for a trial and when the word spreads, you will be rewarded by more viewers than you thought possible. Because it is A DAMN GOOD SHOW!
Judging by all the positive responses here, how could you not.
December 21st, 2009 at 12:51 pm
I was just waiting for it to restart, thinking it was a January thing, and had no idea it was canceled.
I normally have loved CBC shows and been loyal to them, despite the negative jokes you’ve been hearing for years. Now why should I risk watching one of their new shows, taking a chance it will be canceled after the 1st season right in the middle of a storyline? CBC has hurt their credibility with this move.
Listen to the fans and BRING IT BACK!
December 22nd, 2009 at 3:08 am
WE ARE PROUD TO BE CANADIANS”I THINK” LOOK WHAT THEY DO TO US THEY TAKE ARE CHOICE OF FREEDOM TO SPEAK OUT …………WE ALL WE WANT US CANADIANS TO HAVE WILD ROSES BACK FOR ANOTHER SEASON…..JUST LISTEN TO EVERYONE WE WANT IT BACK ……COME ON NOW DON’T DISSAPOINT US…WE LOVE THE SHOW WE LOVE CANADIAN MADE SHOWS…..THEY ARE GREAT ACTORS IN WILD ROSES …WOW I EVEN WATCHED IT WHEN I WENT ON MY TRIP IN DOMINICAN LAST YEAR…..
LISTEN TO YOUR FANS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
December 23rd, 2009 at 5:35 pm
Good old CBC. Finally a Canadian program that keeps you on the edge of your seat and they cancel it. I am very dissappointed and think that in 2010 I won’t even bother seeing what new programs CBC has to offer. Bah humbug to the powers that be. May the fleas of a million camels infest your armpits!!!!
December 26th, 2009 at 7:25 pm
cbc not for me anymore, use to watch wild roses because it was the best show ever but now cbc suck ,we had a show that was the canadian pride and joy because it was canadian very interresting and excellent plots,good acters (excellent acters),the life of the canadian oil sands and no cbc had to cancelled how stupid can you be..no cbc for me………….bring back wild roses please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
December 28th, 2009 at 7:17 pm
Down with CBC. The only good thing they had, they cancelled. How disappointing..
January 1st, 2010 at 6:39 pm
Yes another fine CANADIAN show bites the dust… we’ll just have to settle for ‘Heartland’ , and reruns that the originals we never watched. Stay tuned Canada… more to come, hopefully.
January 1st, 2010 at 9:19 pm
PLEASE BRING WR BACK, IT WAS OUR DATE NIGHT SHOW EVERY WEEK!!!!! We loved it and need to know what happens ……
January 3rd, 2010 at 9:01 pm
My husband and I watched every episode last year. Keep look in the Van. Province to see when it was coming back. Got a laptop and checked it out. So sad to see it cancelled. It was the best!!!! Can;t really get into Heartland.
January 4th, 2010 at 11:27 am
My husband and I really liked Wild Roses! It was the only show that we actually enjoyed watching together. I am so sad to hear it has been cancelled I really wanted to see the next season.
January 4th, 2010 at 4:18 pm
what happened to the show my husband and I watched it every week, the acting was great and we are so sad to see it was cancelled and wonder WHY????
January 5th, 2010 at 3:51 pm
well i have to agree with all the other people that enjoyed wild roses. i do watch mostly u s shows but i made sure that i watched wild roses every week. i was very proud that it was canadian.
January 6th, 2010 at 6:33 pm
Thought I would check tonite to see when Wild Roses was going to start and was so disappointed to see that CBC cancelled this show. Can’t believe it, why, did CBC not have enough money to carry on….watched the new show Republic of Doyle tonite and it does not have a stand in when it came to Wild Roses. It was so well done, I forgot it was Canadian. It reminded me of Dallas. We couldn’t wait for it to come back on. Come on CBC, do you not know when you have a good show. Give it to another station at least and give it another chance, if you cannot do anything more with it. Maybe american.
January 10th, 2010 at 10:11 am
Been looking for Wild Roses to return. Just found out it was cancelled. Hope it is not too late for the network to reconsider.
January 11th, 2010 at 6:27 pm
Wild Roses was a great show. I was hoping it would return in the new year. What are you thinking CBC????? 2009 was the first year my 2 favourite shows were Canadian … Flashpoint and Wild Roses. PLEASE RECONSIDER.
January 15th, 2010 at 8:07 pm
Wild Roses was great, both my husband and i really enjoyed it. i was hoping that January 2010 CBC linelup would bring it back. Come on CBC do the right thing. we want WR back on!!!!!!!!
January 15th, 2010 at 8:09 pm
Hi All.
We want Wild Roses on CBC. Do it Sooon!!!!!!
January 16th, 2010 at 6:11 pm
I know it’s been awhile, but I still miss Wild Roses. I would like CBC to reconsider. What can I do to encourage this? Please advise. I will sincerely appreciate all time and effort looking into this matter.
January 17th, 2010 at 5:52 pm
Wild Roses was awesome. Why is it always like that when there is a good show on tv they have to cancel it? I’m watching tv right now I have about 300 channels and not a single thing interesting to watch. So there is a lot worst than Wild Roses out there. BRING IT BACK!!!!!
January 21st, 2010 at 8:19 am
I think that the cancellation of Wild roses was not fair. You leave a really good cliff hanger and the show was one of my favorite. I hate it when I get into a show then you deside to take it off. Most of the programing is bad already. The cartoons that you have on for kids are horrible. I don’t let my kids watch them.You used to have a lot better programing now you put on thing I think are garbage. Like out dated shows and reruins of old shows. Sometimes you will see the show 3 times in a week. This is not exceptable.
January 23rd, 2010 at 1:17 pm
In Belgium they aired the last episode, and when I read this now, I’m soo disappointed …
The just found the oil… And did they die from the explosion?
I really NEED a second season!
January 23rd, 2010 at 1:19 pm
The JUST aired the last episode today …
January 24th, 2010 at 5:21 pm
what a shame, another great canadian show ousted from cbc, shame on you!!!
January 27th, 2010 at 5:48 pm
Since this is the month for new programming I was searching for info on the premiere of the 2nd season – WHAT, its cancelled? It was the best Canadian show in a long time. Very disappointing to me, and members of my family residing across this country. Shame on CBC. But then, we shouldn’t be so surprised (remember the hockey anthem?) Last time I tune into a CBC show.
January 27th, 2010 at 7:17 pm
So much for watching Canadian television. I watched it with my wife everyweek faithfully because it actually was a Canadian show. I think cbc has their head shoved so far up there they can’t think straight.
February 3rd, 2010 at 8:33 pm
CBC finally has a hit series it can be proud of with such a following and they blow it. Shame on them. I have been wondering when Season 2 was going to start and went online to find out they had sneakily removed it.
And they keep something dumb like Little Mosque on the Prairie? geeeeez…..
February 7th, 2010 at 8:22 pm
I am with the others that will miss Wild Roses….hopefully CBC will realize that a lot of Canadians really enjoyed the show and were faithful watchers.
February 9th, 2010 at 6:42 am
bring it back and get rid of some of the other crap that no one enjoys as mutch as wild rose
February 9th, 2010 at 6:43 am
bring it back and get rid of some of the other crap that no one enjoys as much as wild rose
