first they came for the Scapers...
Sep. 16th, 2002 12:15 ambelow, an important memo from the SAVE FARSCAPE brigade:
Subject: "I AM FARSCAPE"
What is "I Am Farscape"? Well, just that. It's a campaign to make the audience demographics tangible to the folks at SCI FI using their own "I am SCI FI" campaign.
We know this is very short notice, but if you watch Farscape (or even if you don't!) we're asking for your help.
We've made posters available at: http://divinecollective.bitchenvy.com/IAmFarscape.html (and many thanks to Maayan and Arne for the fabulous design). What we'd like you to do is pick a character and print one out. Fill in your demographic information with a big black marker (check the list of advertisers at the end of this announcement and mention as many as you can.) Tape or glue a photo of yourself in the top right-hand corner and mail it to:
Bonnie Hammer, President
The Sci-Fi Channel
1230 Avenue of the Americas
New York, NY 10020
If you can afford overnight mail, so much the better, but send it regular even if you can't. That also goes for folks outside the US. Farscape has an international audience; you can really help us demonstrate that. Let's see if we can deluge them with our faces, make ourselves real, not some faceless 'audience'.
Last, feel free to forward this request anywhere you like. And many thanks for letting Save Farscape go OT on your forum. Your one letter might be just what we need to turn the tide.
