How crappy for them to just rip away our FOREVER EDEN. I didnt know of the show PH, from what I"ve read I would have most likely like it too. But regardless you dont promise viewers something and then take it away. Fox lied about 2 things as far as Eden, it would at least last 25 shows and it would be back in june. Yeah a big BS to that one. I would love to see the show back since there are a some 16 or 18 shows left unseen, the least they could do is show them for the people who did love the show. I hate reality shows and never have watched one until forever eden. Something about it just got me addicted, and the theme song ROCKED :;>).... Even if they didnt re-air, they could at least thrown the 25 episodes on a DVD (like osbournes or simple life) with a added where the cast is and let us lovers of the show buy the dang DVD to see what they took from us. I mean give us SOMETHING. I did sign the petition that was offered. Unfortunaly there wasnt as many people as I would like to see, but I will be working on that myself; now that I know it is there. If you ask me i think its a pretty good idea the DVD thing. But Im not fox. I tell you something else, after this with FOX and their BS, I dont think I am gonna watch FOX no more. Im glad I found this forum, so I could get this off my chest. I really miss FOREVER EDEN. One more thing:
I was addicted to the little song the theme song. I have been somehow trying to find it, anywhere to download it. If anyone knows how I could get that song, I would just love them to death. Thanks a Bunch dizees_angel@yahoo.com

Five picks up 'Forever Eden' in UK
Thursday, December 16 2004, 09:29 GMT -- by Neil Wilkes
Forever Eden, the "never-ending" reality series axed after just seven episodes, will be shown in the UK next year.
The show, fronted by Wish You Were Here? host Ruth England, was dropped by FOX after a disappointing ratings debut. Although only seven episodes were shown Stateside, programme makers Mentorn continued to produce the original 26 episodes ordered by the US network.
Now the series will air - in its entirety - in the UK on Five some time during 2005.
The format is similar to its predecessor Paradise Hotel, which has also aired on Five. In Forever Eden, eleven contestants live in a luxury location but must form bonds with each other to avoid elimination and remain in paradise.
The show has also been sold to ten other broadcasters worldwide.

Something for us Forever Eden Paradise Hotel fans :)
Q: Whatever happened to the reality show Paradise Hotel? It only was on for one season. Will it be making a return to television? —Jerry, San Antonio
Andy says: Oh, how much we miss the summer of 2003, with “Paradise Hotel” bringing middle school-style conflicts and romances into our living rooms. Set at Villa Arabesque in Acapulco, the series was a tour de immaturity, and it was fantastic, populated with unparalleled cast members including “Love Cruise”’s Toni Ferrari. And now there’s news that it might be coming back this summer.
During its summer run, “Paradise Hotel” wasn’t watched by “American Idol”-sized audiences, but it often won its time period in the advertiser-coveted 18 to 49 demographic. More significantly, it developed a pretty substantial cult following. The show did so well FOX added six weeks to its run and also sold the format internationally. FOX’s Gail Berman hinted that the series might return during the summer of 2004.
But it never returned. A distant relative of the series did air on FOX the following year, but “Forever Eden” was really an awkward half-cousin. Planned as a series that would run indefinitely, its lame casting and confusing game structure led to FOX airing only seven episodes before pulling the plug.
Thus, “Paradise Hotel” fans — like fans of “The Mole,” and not its annoying cousin “Celebrity Mole” — sat and waited, until last week, when an exec at the production company that produced the show said FOX was discussing bringing the show back. Digital Spy reports that both cost and controversy played into the decision to not let it return. But the series has done well overseas, and FOX is apparently now talking about bringing it back. To help with the cost, an idea has been floated to bring the original cast back to paradise, which would be even more thrilling.
However, shortly after this report came out, “an operative” told Defamer “that the show will not be back.” We’re refusing to believe it, though, until we hear official word.
Gael says: Every time I check the "Ask the Reality Experts" mailbag, I am floored at how many people are itching to know more about "Paradise" and "Eden." It is truly the Question that Will Not Die. In the last 45 days, we've been asked about the show no less than 25 times.
"Paradise Hotel," with its good-looking meanies and its slow-to-awaken good guys, had a bit of everything — except good taste. It had crazy Tom, who carried around a stuffed monkey named Smokey. It had evil uber-couple Amy and Zack, and Zack's on-air threat to come after another contestant, Keith, with "about 50 guys." It had lovely-if-dim Charla, who finally wised up and led the more likable contestants to victory.
And in the end, it has some bizarre unfairness, where Keith and Charla each won $250,000 and had the option to split it with the roommate who'd gotten them that far. It was a split decision — adorable Keith split the cash with love interest Tara, but Charla, after talking to perennial reality contestant Toni, kept it all for herself. (Sorry, Dave!) You don't see that kind of drama on PBS.
As much as it would be entertaining to see the show come back, maybe it's best to just let sleeping cheese lie. It could never be as deliciously bad again.
