</p><p>So far, despite the rumors, the show has not actually been canceled. According to producer <a href="/wiki/Edward_Kitsis" title="Edward Kitsis">Edward Kitsis</a>, however, it is <a rel="nofollow" class="external text exitstitial" href="http://www.ign.com/articles/2013/01/13/tron-uprising-producer-we-need-more-viewers">in danger of not being renewed</a> due to lower viewership than Disney expected (after random and unpredictable scheduling changes, an unannounced summer hiatus, switching the timeslot to midnight, and neglecting to distribute or market the show to the worldwide, computer-savvy audience that would've happily sat through all the Hulu commercials ever to be able to stream on their own schedules and count as viewers [what, bitter? me?]). Storyboarder Eric Canete also tweeted some strong words about the company not having faith in the show (compiled <a rel="nofollow" class="external text exitstitial" href="http://tronlives2113.tumblr.com/post/40126854982/strong-words-from-eric-canete">here</a> from his <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://twitter.com/EricCanete">twitter</a>).
</p><p>Meanwhile, the petition to <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.change.org/en-GB/petitions/disney-animation-studios-renew-tron-uprising-and-motorcity-for-additional-seasons">save TRON: Uprising and Motorcity</a> is approaching two thousand signatures [update: now over 2200]. Tumblr fans have also started a <a rel="nofollow" class="external text exitstitial" href="http://kaztiel.tumblr.com/post/40207053321/project-frisbee-tron-lives">frisbee campaign</a>. It might not be enough, given that there are only two episodes to go; but whatever happens, TRON LIVES.
