A 'Drop Dead Diva' comeback?: Fans create online petition to bring the show back for a 7th season

Do you want Lifestyle's "Drop Dead Diva" to be back on TV?

There is an ongoing online petition on Change.org asking USA Network to help resurrect the show back for another season.

The petition, created by Ashley Eppley of Brainbridge, PA, states: "Please sign make usa network to give show and chance and give it proper promotion once I get at least 2000 to 5,000 signature will send to USA Network 30 Rockefeller Plaza 21st Floor New York, NY 10112."

The comedy/drama/fantasy show, which recently capped off its sixth and final season on Lifetime, has already been cancelled and revived. It was previously cancelled after its fourth season, leaving fans hanging after a big twist in the finale. Sony, however, found a more feasible financial mode--it was brought back for a fifth season, and renewed for a sixth.

The show, created by Josh Berman, follows the life of a model named Deb who dies in a car accident and returned to earth in the body of Jane, an intelligent plus-sized lawyer. It stars Brooke Elliott (Jane), Margaret Cho (Teri, Jane's assistant), and April Bowlby (Stacy, Deb/Jane's best friend).

In an earlier interview, Berman said that he's hopeful that the show will once again be renewed. Using the crime drama "The Killing" as an example, he said: "I mean look at 'The Killing,' which was brought back to life twice, I mean we've only been brought back to life once."

"We've been canceled before, but with our fan base and already seeing the petitions online and the movement to bring it back, I think anything is potentially possible," he told The Wrap.

So far, 261 people have signed the petition.
