NOBODY is going to guarantee a show for 5 years.
"If the network loses money on the show, so be it." So can you pay me to sell a product for your hardware company. If you lose money, who cares, you're making money on other products. I don't think that will go over well with your boss. That only works if you're a company like Walmart that has enough other products. Tv networks have a finite amount of shows they have space for.
Secondly, it doesn't matter what you want. It only matters what the advertisers want. Unless the show airs on pay-per-view (HBO, Showtime, etc) or is going straight to dvd or itunes, the advertisers make the calls.
I know you mean well, and maybe this is your 1st show that has been cancelled(if so my condolences it's hard to go thru), but money is the only thing that counts. Don't spend your time tweeting, or facebooking, or signing petitions. If you are serious (and you sound like it), put your time and money where it can make a difference. And take this lesson to the next show, when you see the ratings start to slip that's when to take action.
What you want is not the way the tv business works, and that's not going to change unless you gets 10's of millions of people to quit watching tv, or get hired to run a network, or win a lottery and buy a network.
