Los Angeles: CA (CNS) - The fans have spoken. Out of all the shows currently on the fence for the Fall 2009 season, they want 'Terminator" to be back. Save One Show, a poll conducted by E! each year, asks television fans what's their pick for the show in danger of cancellation which needs to be saved. After 300,000 votes, "Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles" led the pack with 53% of the vote.

The runner-up, NBC's "Chuck" was a far second with 25%. "Dollhouse" followed with 10%, while "Life" earned 8% and "Privileged" another 4%. Previous winners of the Save One Show poll include Angel, One Tree Hill, and Veronica Mars.

"I think I speak for everybody who works on the show when I say thank you to the fans for their tireless work to save our show," "Terminator" executive producer Josh Friedman told E!. "I think it really goes to show that there's a really hard-core, emotional, passionate fan base for Terminator that is larger and more widespread than people give us credit for."

Friedman also says he hasn't spoken to Fox in weeks and that they aren't giving him any signs as to whether the show will go or stay. "They said they're going to make all their decisions when they get the pilots in, and I don't think they have any of their pilots in yet," he says. "Things are just starting to come in from the other shows."

He also says Fox usually won't make a decision until the last day they have to make that decision, which is slated for May 18th. Fans of "Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles" will have to wait until then to know the fate of the show for certain.
