MAKE A WISH
We have gotten word that NBC has rescinded its initial order for more episodes of Amy Grant's reality series "Three Wishes" -- citing budget restraints. The network has not "cancelled" the series; however, it has not ordered production of shows beyond the Dec. 2 Christmas episode and the Dec. 9 Season Finale.
If you value this series, it is important that NBC hears from you.
First, TUNE IN -- ratings do matter!
Second, send an email directly to NBC to show your support of "Three Wishes."
