Okay. I'm new, but dedicated. We need to focus on campaigns to the Sci-fi channel. My step-brother has a contract to write and produce a show with Fox, but his show is actually aired on CBS. This means that even if FOX doesn't want to air the show themselves, if they have a network that wants it, they will produce it. If Fox thinks it can find a buyer, it will be more likely to actually happen. So, prove they have a buyer. Campaign Sci-Fi Channel and any other channel we think will buy it. Raise money and buy local advertising spots on Fox network and Sci-Fi network to actually ADVERTISE to the networks that WE WANT THIS. I'll donate money. I'll buy another box set. I've already hooked everyone I know; it's not like it's hard. One episode usually does the trick.

Sounds good to me, I think simply getting more people wont be enough, that would be us staying active, but I think we also need to be proactive in some ways. What exactly do you mean by campaigning the sci fi channel, just write letters and stuff, get petitions together? Im sure there are many others that would be willing to help. What can I do to start?

I looked it up. We need to ALL start emailing the Sci-Fi channel and beg for more Firefly ASAP. feedback@scifi.com
Let the email bombardment begin!!

I'll make sure and do that. Now for spreading the verse a little wider, for those of you who can afford it, I would sugjest donating to your local Libraries. If you can do the central Libraries, cause if the central Library has it then the rest of 'em are allowed to accept donations of it. I was converted via the Library, but I know there are only about 4 disks of each episode at mine. (always checked out). I added the 4rth, but can't really afford to do more. (I'm in high school and am saving for colledge next year.) If you just want peeps to get converted I'd start a feed the library program.

I just thought of something, what should we say in the letter, and is there a human being we can send it too? I know that seems harsh, but if we have a context idea it will be easier to send a message, and if we have a real person to send it to, then we're more likely to get a responce, and or what we want.

Hi guys, I'm new in the world of Firefly i just discover it by the movie Serenity. First i wan't to apologize for my english i'm a french guy from canada so... anyway i just thought about is a kind of petition was made? my idea is simple: we should each fan of firefly send a email like to sc fi channel or universal or whatever and write a collective letter sign by all of us

I think another idea would be to have them release the River Tam Sessions on DVD. I mean, how many of you would not pay $20 for a higher res version of the Sessions on an official DVD, especially if all the proceeds pretty much went directly to supporting the 'verse? DVD's cost almost nothing to produce, the material has already been recorded, what would there be to lose? Who wouldn't be interested, especially if Summer and Joss wanted to add a few sessions in between as an added bonus!

Yeah, I think if Joss wanted to make the money to do this himself he could. All he has to do is make and sell interview/etc DVD's at $20 a pop (or more even). You know we would ALL buy every damn one of them. Especially if we knew it would fund more Firefly.

Has Joss ever posted on these forums. I noticed he had a post or two over at the official site, I sure hope he reads some of this stuff. Most likely he has thought about some of this stuff before, but we may hit something he hasnt.
