Christina Applegate’s has joined Twitter-verse and has started up a petition to save her ABC series, Samantha, Who?.

Earlier this week, it was announced that ABC canceled Christina’s comedy due to economic reasons. The network was reportedly looking to cut $500,000 per episode. According to THR, to do that, the series’ producers were looking to add a third camera to its shoots, keeping the single-camera look but trimming its production schedule.

On the red carpet, Christina admitted she was there for the birth of the Pussycat Dolls. She shared, “”It was created in my garage. I had a little dance studio at my house. [PCD founder] Robin Antin was my roommate and that’s where it was created. I was in it for 10 years on and off. I am a veteran! We had sewn-together costumes [back then] and we had to dance on this little carpet stage.”

Christina and Taye Diggs presented House’s Hugh Laurie with the “Male Actor in a Drama Series” Award.
