Petition addressed to:
History channel
After a brief leave to tend to his sick son, Dragon was unable to rejoin his spot on the TV show. Dragon is not just another cast member; he is one of the original team members and has been since owner Brandon Fugal purchased the ranch in 2016. He is very loved by teammates and audience. He has a special magnetic charm that can't be acted but exudes purely.
The show has real people doing what many viewers believe is an actual scientific experiment that may lead to important discoveries. Brandon Fugal has publicly stated that he wants what is filmed to be real and not sensationalized. The team has heart. Dragon is a huge part of it.
In my opinion, what is happening here is a real team of people, brought together organically, that is reminiscent of a Fellowship on a quest to make discoveries that can help humanity. To me, the owner and team alike do not come across as grifters or people simply trying to make money. Without Dragon, a major beloved core part of this Fellowship has been cut out of the story, the experiment, and the adventure.
As a fan, I hope those responsible for casting decisions will reconsider and find a way to invite him back.
There is a huge hole when viewing the show. Something is missing: Dragon. It's heartbreaking. What is most compelling about the show is watching the journey unfold. It's like they have killed off a main character. Dragon is currently still working as lead security on the ranch, but can you imagine not being able to participate in the scientific experiment and with his team?
My understanding is that Dragon stepped away from the show in order to be with his severely ill son during a difficult time. As a fan, I deeply admire that choice.
Please help get him back on the show, doing the experiments, by signing this petition that will be submitted to the History Channel and those involved with the production.
Thank you so much!
Merilee Moscardelli, Just a fan.
Reason
The importance is to get Bryant/ Dragon back on the show so he can work and support his family and be a part of making history with his team. He was absent for two seasons since caring for his ill son.
Dragon is one of the most important members of the team as he has the personality to keep so many people watching the show! If you want numbers, please bring him back.
