This is a project I'm starting up on the Scifi.com Firefly Forum. Skiffy hasn't had a Firefly Marathon in a while, and I think this is a good way to ask for one. Here's the post that I put up over there:

Here's an idea that I think just might get Sci/Fi's attention....

I noticed that there isn't a Firefly Marathon scheduled during the Month of March,
which is a big disappointment. The Schedule for April Should be up by the
First of March, right? Well, here's my idea:

1) If there isn't a FF Marathon scheduled for April, let's ALL e-mail
feedback@scifi.com on the First of March and ask that they schedule one for the
Month of May. If there isn't a Marathon scheduled in May, then we e-mail them
April 2nd (NOT on April Fool's day!) and ask for a Marathon in June, etc. Each
Month we'll let Skiffy know that we do more than post on this Board.

We Watch the programming, and Want Our Show Included!

2) If Sci/Fi Does schedule a Marathon in any given Month, we should all
send an e-mail thanking them on the Day of the Marathon.

As is usual with Projects of this type, we need Numbers. If y'all are willing to do
this, a LOT of us have to do it. There are 2 million people registered on the sci/fi
Forums, and if we could get just a fraction of those numbers, they Will notice!
But we need Thousands of e-mails, Folks, not Hundreds.

If you have friends on the other skiffy Forums who are Fans and/or Browncoats,
let them know and get them involved. I'll be happy to coordinate this by posting
reminders on this thread as the "Target Dates" approach. But I need to know now:

Do Ya Wanna???

Thank you both, very much!

This is really a very simple idea. Just check the Schedule Calendar at scifi.com on the first of each month. If they don't have Firefly Scheduled, e-mail feedback@scifi.com and ask that they schedule it. If they DO schedule it, thank sci/fi for doing so. Easy as Lyin'.

Since there is no Marathon scheduled for April, folks over at scifi.com have started e-mailing, asking that skiffy schedule a Marathon for May at the latest, or perhaps drop one of the "doubled-up" Marathons; programs that get airtime twice in the month (Like the Incredible Hulk).

That address again is feedback@scifi.com

I've sent out mine for this go-around

Please suggest to everyone you know, whether they watch sci/fi channel or not, that we need this kind of exposure!

Thak you all!

We're kind of hoping to send a message to sci/fi this month, so if y'all could please e-mail feedback@scifi.com on March 1st and request a Firefly Marathon be shown in either April or May...

That would be a Shiny thing for you to do
