It has been quite some time since I have posted here. I'm sure some of you might remember me from years ago fighting for Quantum Leap over on the Scifi.com board. I've come to you today to ask you assistance in another battle.
We've all written multiple letters in an attempt to bring back Quantum Leap, and believe me there is still nothing I'd like to see more than "A Bold Leap Forward" with a return of Scott and Dean to tie up the series. I will continue to be hopeful and devoted to the return of QL. But recently a new series has gripped my attention for the first time in years. I have become an absolute die-hard fan of "Jericho" which aired this past season on CBS. A fantasticly creative show about how a small town in Kansas reacts to a Nuclear strike of every major city in the U.S. It is about perseverance, community, and the fight to survive. Jericho was able to get off and running attracting nearly 12 or 13 million viewers an episode. But after a massive 10 week break mid-season it came back to average/below average ratings. After giving the fans a cliff-hanger season finale, CBS decided to cancel the show. Thats right, the first new show I start in almost ten years is yet again cancelled with a cliffhanger.
Well since the show has been cancelled, two weeks ago today, a massive campaign be waged upon CBS. As Jake Green, the show's hero, cried out the WWII battle cry "NUTS" in the last episode, Jericho fans have sent over 12 TONS of peanuts to CBS in an attempt to show how many fans there are. There have been countless e-mails, phone calls, and snail mail sent to CBS and we have recieved a statement from the network president, promising some sort of closure to the series. Well closure is not what we are seeking. We are seeking a second season and a second chance for the show. I am asking Quantum Leap fans for help in the push to return Jericho.
I'm not asking for much. A simple letter, or e-mail or phone call to CBS would be fantastic. Asking them to bring back Jericho for a second season and politely showing your support is all I ask. Below are links to some of the most relevant sites for this fight. I posted in this forum because I believe it gets the most traffic. If you don't wish to take part I thank you for reading this post. If you do I urge you to view some of the first episodes if you care too. The can be viewed online here: http://www.cbs.com/primetime/jericho/
If you simply choose to support your fellow scifi fans that are fighting the big bad networks then I thank you for you help. I decided to turn to QL fans because this group of Jericho fans reminds me of you. Devoted, loyal, intelligent, and willing to do anything to see the return of your quality program. Again here are some of the links to the campaign, and I thank everyone who read this. Have a good one and I hope to stop by here more often in the future.
