Hi - I didn't know that they cancelled Starter Wife. For what reason. I think that Debra Messing is just great in this show. I love the whole cast, and they make a terrific ensemble. I NEED MY STARTER WIFE!!!!! Big mistake cancelling it. Have you all lost your mind. If it is up to me, they could cancel every so called Reality Show.
PLEASE Reconsider the decision on Starter Wife!!! This is the best show ever.
I really love the starter wife and this network and think you should pick it up.
This is such a GREAT show! As an attorney I spend all day knee-deep in real life "Law & Order" drama. When I have time to watch TV, I want to see something to which I can relate--something that reflects a side of my life experience that society, apparently, would prefer to sweep under the rug. The Starter Wife gave a voice to my divorce experience, and portrayed the shared commonality that most women in this country experience at one time or another--single parenthood; dealing with an idiot ex-husband; struggling with a reduced standard of living; trying to figure out how to lead an emotionally fulfilled life; juggling a career and children; what women's friendship's look like--and so much more! I am so sick of the sappy sweet women's shows that so many networks think are reflective of life as a woman in the US--get real! The Starter Wife was one of the few shows that gave a real look at women's lives with a good dose of humor. Please pick up this show!
The Starter Wife was the ONLY show I would race home to watch even though I have a DVR. Saving Grace - Love it. The Closer - LOVE it. Royal Pains - GREAT- but I would always DVR them. Not Starter Wife - I just had to watch it the minute it came on commercials and all. Molly feels like someone I know although she is just a character in a show - smart, funny, vulnerable and so so cool. All the characters were wonderful and charming and real in a tv sort of way. This was a great confection of an escape and I will follow this show anywhere. I was terribly disappointed to hear that the show had been cancelled. I think USA did a terrible job promoting it and no one even knew it was on. Really, my friends and I (and our husbands) all so enjoyed this show. I believe we're a desirable demographic (40 somethings with $$) . Please bring it to Lifetime.
I loved this show. I watched it as a mini-series. When it got picked up as a series last year, I watched it as often as I could. It was on at a bad time for me. I usually work a 12 hr shift of friday nights. But I loved this humor in this show. It was one of those shows that made you laugh and just enjoy yourself. Most importantly, I think it would fit well with the other shows lifetime has about women and their friendships.
I am such a big fan of Debra Messing and The Starter Wife, I think it would be a great move for the show and also the network! Please pick them up, they're stories aren't finished yet!
I LOVED the starter wife!!
It was smart and witty ...TV needs more shows like that !
I really hope Lifetime will consider picking it up ASAP!
I think they need to dump boring army wives and run the starter wife after drop dead diva.
By all means. I certainly hope that Lifetime will consider continuing "Starter Wives." Even after a couple years since the last filming, I continue to miss the series. It's a feel-good, time to myself as a woman, tea or coffe time, dream time tv show that carried me away each week and caused me to hold my breath awaiting the following weeks details. Please, please consider bringing us back such a special show that touched our hearts in a soothing manner.
Thank you,

I so enjoyed this creative show. Please pick it up!
This was one of the only shows that my husband didn't argue with me about, he knew that when the show was on it was my time, and he loved it too! Please bring The Starter Wife to Lifetime! We missed the first season, watched it online, watched the second season every week, and have been searching for it since!
The Starter Wife was one of the BEST new shows on TV and I was shocked and disappointed to find out USA had cancelled it. My family and friends ALL watched this show and loved it! PLEASE, Lifetime - PICK UP THE STARTER WIFE!!!!!
Please pick up starter wife. It is one of the best shows I have ever watched!
I just googled The Starter Wife to see if I could find anyone who picked this show up---I am not a TV person BUT I LOVED THIS SHOW---I would even look forward to the lazy week-end mornings where i could watch the repeats......PLEASE CONSIDER THIS LIFETIME! I was a huge fan and just got a few others watching it and they liked it also.....please get it on here! Jodi IN OHIO
Please, please, please bring it back!
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE Bring this show back. This is the one show that I set a reminder for, so I wouldn't miss a minute. The Starter Wife and Lifetime are a GREAT fit.
would L*O*V*E you Lifetime if you picked up Starter Wife....it had quite a following and would, no doubt , have good ratings.
I am so upset at USA network. Bring Molly back!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I Just found out that USA cancelled the starter wife!!!!!! I know im late.....BUT WHY!!!!!! I LOVE THIS SHOW.....i fell in love with it the moment it started. I just hope enough people care to bring this show on Lifetime!
Lifetime - Please pick up Starter Wife!!!! It is the perfect show for this network. Loyal fans here - you won't regret it. Smart humor, great writing, known cast, and independent women - isn't that what you go for??? It's what we do!
Love the Starter Wife. Will definitely be tuned into Lifetime if it is picked up! Love the shows, and would be thrilled to have the Starter Wife on the lineup!
Please pick up Starter Wife. Best show on Cable.
So FEW shows to watch now. Wish they would keep it, but I'm slowly learning to spend time on the computer instead. Sorry to see Starter Wife go the way of other really good shows.
good
Who's the nut that decided that "The Starter Wife" wasn't popular and needed to be canceled. Probably a GUY!! Seriously, that was one of the best shows I've seen in a while. I really hope Lifetime gets on the ball and grabs that show up. It would be one of their best hits!!! And really, Debra Messing and Lifetime? Doesn't that sound like a match made in heaven?!
this show is FUNNY! all my friends & family watch it too. we all LOVE it! pick up this wonderful show!!!!!!
I absolutely LOVE this show. The characters are fabulous (the actors are who portray them are amazing)!
Please pick up Starter Wife!!!
PLEASE BRING BACK STARTER WIFE.
I enjoy this series so much please lifetime pick it up.
It will fit in with the current lineup.
PLEASE BRING BACK STARTER WIFE.
I love this show and would love for it to go to a network that is for women. I would watch it everyday if it came on that much! It's a great show..
Never joined one of these sites but felt inclinded to do so because I saw the starter wife mini series and loved it. I told all of my family and friends about it. I have not seen it since because I can never find it on tv. I just now found out that it was indeed on USA and was cancelled. LIFETIME you need to pick up this show it is by far the best series on cable. I will definately watch it if it is picked up. Debra Messing is the best thing going. She is such a great actress.
PLEEEEEEEEEEEZE pick up Starter Wife, Lifetime! I believe it will become one of the most popular shows on television, if given the proper time slot. Someone posted a comment on USA Network's message board (begging them to bring back the show--which they didn't do) suggesting that they give it an earlier time slot--maybe 9:00 pm Friday (there's no real competition in that time slot and for those who are tired after working all week it would be a good time). They also suggested that many times fans discover their favorite shows by accident, so try airing episodes of The Starter Wife immediately following episodes of Army Wives. I know right now you air a re-run of Sunday's Army Wives episode on Monday night (at 8 or 9?), so the time slot immediately following that would be perfect for introducing fans to The Starter Wife. Just make sure it's not competing with any mega-hits on other networks so it stands a chance, ok? But PLEEEEEZE, Lifetime--BE OUR HERO and give us back The Starter Wife!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Please Lifetime, if anyone can make it work it would be you. Please bring The Starter Wife back. This is the network it should have been with in the beginning. This show brought me through a tough time. I was going through the same thing that Molly was going through. And it inspired me and gave me the strength and confidence I needed to realize my potential.
(also I mean, I never watched Desperate Housewives until it came on Lifetime, and now I am addicted to it. I know you would be able to do that same thing with The Starter Wife) I mean you did say Lifetime is now Wifetime..........
LOOOOOOOOOOVED Starter Wife! My husband said USA cancelled it because it is a "chick show", what better place for this type if show than Lifetime....TV for WOMEN!
I cannot believe all of the great programming that is getting canceled only to be filled by junk reality TV. I have had my fill of spoiled rich people left in jungles and woud love to see a smart comedy with a strong woman lead continue on. Please pick up this show!!
This is one of the best shows I have seen in a while I look forward to watching every week. And there are not too many shows on now a days other than reality tv shows that compare to this show. So to one housewife who looks forward too very few things I beg you to pick up this show it is very good.
This is where it should have been in the first place, Belongs on LIFETIME. Please pick up
BRING MOLLY BACK!!!! The Starter Wife is a WONDERFUL show that needs a new home! PLEASE LIFETIME...PLEASE!!!!
Please pick up the starter wife... I was just checking to see when the new season started and I just found out USA cancelled it!!!!!!!!!! The is the only show to enjoy during the summer! I'm so upset over this!
I love the Starter Wife.....I have enjoyed it both seasons.... I was glued to each show to see what Molly was going to get into next... Please bring it to Lifetime..... Wifetime! Starter Wife Time!
I am devastated that TSW is cancelled. It has been one of those things you can't wait for summer for. The beach and TSW. Lifetime, please pick up The Starter Wife. I thought it was your show until I googled it to see when it was to begin and forgot that it was a USA show. It would suit your channel and demographics perfectly.
Starter Wife is original, imaginative and intelligent! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE pick it up!!!!
yes
I can't stand how networks just cancel shows without letting the viewers have closure! I hope that Lifetime will pick up The Starter Wife for just that very reason. We as viewers deserve to have an ending that is fitting to the seasons that we enjoyed and were devoted to watching!!
I LOVE LOVE LOVE The Starter Wife! It quickly became one of my favorite shows. I watched the miniseries at least 3 times and I watched the entire second season twice. It would be wonderful if Lifetime picked it up!
Pleaseeeeeeeee do not drop The Starter Wife.............I live that show...........and Debra Messing is the best
Please show the Starter Wife I really enjoy this show...
I hope Lifetime does bring back Starter Wife. Love this show!!
I miss the Starter Wife. Would like to see it back on TV.
