Saw this on Crashdown and thought the stats were interesting:

Here's the main text of the cover letters:
We, the undersigned, would like to present you with this petition to continue the Roswell Television series for a fourth season.
Many of the people who signed this petition did so when it appeared that UPN might renew Roswell for a fourth season. Despite UPN's decision not to do so, we feel that this petition shows the global interest and dedication of Roswell's worldwide fan base.
The following 25,167 signatures and comments from approximately 85 countries were collected through an online petition that can be viewed at
www.petitiononline.com/ro...ition.html .
The petition continues to be signed.
Since only people with online access are able to sign the petition, it represents a small portion of how many people would follow Roswell for a fourth season on Sci-Fi when it airs.
We fervently hope to soon see the announcement that there will indeed be a fourth season of Roswell on Sci-Fi.
You can contact the renewal campaign committee at:

Sincerely,
Global Fans of Roswell
