To whom it may concern: I have just finished watching episode 62 Of “The Fosters” and I believe that it would be a shame if the show was not renewed for season five or even a sigh season. The messages in this series are very powerful as well as valuable to youth today. The series is evolving into a good direction which touches upon even more problems facing today’s youth. The episodes are very well written as also thought out.
I only wish that when I was growing up we had access to these kinds of programs. Then again everything was different then., Society was not mature enough and such a show would not have been accepted as it is today. It is not only accepted but is very much needed. Sincerely, Oksana.
I agree with you…I was in the system myself and I so can relate to the show…it should go for quite a few more seasons than 5
I agree this is a OUTSTANDING SHOW FELL IN LOVE WITH THE SHOW I WAS IN THE SYSTEM UNTIL MY MOM ADOPTED ME WHEN I WAS 18 MONTHS OLD IN A SINGLE PARENT HOUSEHOLD THE BEST THING I COULD HAVE GOTTEN WAS TO BE ADOPTED PLEASE GIVE US SEASON 4A ETC
My teenage daughter and I watch faithfully every week. She is a product of two moms that are no longer together. We talk about each episode and how it would relate to her or friends.
I worked as a CPS Case Manager for 15 years and learned so much from this show. I became a better advocate for the kids on my case load. I do recognize the issues faced by the case managers who are rarely shown on this show. The recommended caseload is 14 kids but I was juggling over 30 when I finally gave up and left my job.
To have this show on television is a blessing for many groups in our society. The lesbian foster parents, the teenagers in the foster system, the workers who try making a difference, the kids who deal with school violence, bi-racial families, and many others benefit from being represented on this show. Please keep it on the air.
Fantastic show, They never shy away from any issue. Such a useful tool for the younger generation. Surely it has to go beyond series five, there is a lot of life still in it. The two moms are brill.
This needs to continue our youth have sooooo! Many problems to deal with. This show has opened dialogue between parents n teenaged subject which are very hard for both parent and teens to approach please please I have heard of parent through discussing this show have found ways too help their teens and teens who have gained tools to trust seeking out help mine included
Ms Lopez is an executive producer who has two children soon to be teens don’t think for all your money will make them immune to any of this! Thank you for producing such a show for parents and teens
