I don't like the BBC(1 or 2) anymore,first reason is they cancelled 7 Days(US sci-fi series),second they started to buy no more sci-fi series,thirdly they can't even be bothered to show the sci-fi series anymore as repeats(even though Star Trek:TOS & TNG are being repeated on Satardays).Plus there a*sholes which keep raising the TV license fee but are making more & more cr*p every year.So that's why I prefer C4 or Five to get Firefly but we should all ask all of them(BBC2,C4,Five) to buy Firefly.

The BBC didn't pick up Firefly when Serenity came out so I think it's less than likely they will show the repeats now. I just can't seem them airing a show that's four years old.

So are people actually going to do this or just debate? The general consensus seems to be those three so get writing people, and not here to say the same things. A few dribs and drabs of letters spread over years wont affect anything, it needs to be hard, fast and consistent, like in the Shoreshank Redemption (sorry, can't think of a Firefly example of mass letter campaigning - yes I can, the broadcast in Serenity, although that wasn't long term enough).
Anyway, we need it in this country.

But first we need to alert all UK Browncoats that we're doing this before we send all our email & mail,so here's my plan I'm going to create a thread later today which will be have the links & explain what needs to be done,we need every UK Browncoat on the site to see this thread or the thread I will create,I will also include the date at which I think we should all start emailing & mailing so don't do it right now cause not everybody know's about that were doing this & if we do it when I say then will get the maximum number of Browncoats emailing & mailing.
I'll create the thread this evening(between 6pm-9pm) cause I think that's the time the most UK Browncoats will be online cause some of us do have jobs.
I think the date at which we set to start emailing & mailing should be around at least 1 month time.

... just remember that this is August so we need to think of those Browncoats who are on holiday... start in a week and then aim for a peak in 2-3 weeks when we'll have more numbers back in the trenches...

They got rid of all the friday night comedy recently.
Sure, it's more time to watch FF and S but still.
To be honest, I doubt that anybody on analogue TV (Where you use an arial) are likely to show it. Digital TV is probably the best option.
For example, every time a new series of the simpsons comes about, Sky are the first to show it in the UK.
But seeing as I don't have digital TV myself, I can't suggest who.
Anybody who disagrees with any of this violently can do so. But no matter what you do, "You can't take the sky from me".

Well actually the only reason the sci-fi zone isn't on at the moment is because Enterprise finished & SG-1 finished the 7th season 4 or 5 months ago & the 8th season is coming back in the next few months so the sci-fi zone will back soon.
