Kelly Kahl, Sr. Executive VP of Programming 7800 Beverly Blvd., Los Angeles, CA 90039

Nina Tassler, President, CBS Entertainment 7800 Beverly Blvd., Los Angeles, CA 90039



You know, I believe the post office has a "book rate" which is lower postage.

Ask them about this, if this is what it's going to be. Best idea I've heard.

While sending stuff worked last go round, we're in a different sort of battle right now.
The focus is ,and will remain until advised otherwise, snail mail to CBS/Paramount encouraging them to allow the show to be sold to another entity. CBS/Paramount owns Jericho and is NOT obligated to do anything with it. In fact, based on nothing more that someone having a bad day, they are well within their rights to shelve this property forever. Anyone remember John Wayne movies such as "The High and the Mighty"? This movie along with a few others for decades was not allowed to be broadcast simply due to the whim of the parties that held rights to them. This is a VERY common occurance in the entertainment industry.

That said....maintain your focus on polite, informative letters to CBS/Paramount asking that they strongly consider making a deal with another production company or broadcast entity to continue Jericho.

At this time, Radio Free Jericho does not endorse or advocate the sending of any gimmick material objects to anyone.

I was thinking about this today as I was reading posts on the other forums. Is it possible that this is a HUGE publicity stunt. Look how much free press CBS received the last time we fought to save Jericho. In this day of cost crunching and economy is it possible we are being used!..
I just want Jericho back on the air. I don't care where, I felt almost this bad when Firefly left the air. VIVA LA REVOLUTION!!!

THANKS!!! We had so much fun designing the different graphics. There are more at the link listed on the bottom of the graphic. (including some freebies for other jericho fans) I am especially proud of the "Home Wanted One...6.8 million nuts included."

It really has nothing to do with liking or not liking a particular idea. Plain, simple reasoning is that the Nuts deal was a one time thing. It's been copied to little or no success and we're in a totally different ball game.

The nuts were a symbol of our anger towards CBS for cancelling Jericho. We're not in the business of expresssing anger anymore...our new line of work is to impress upon CBS/Paramount, the owners of the property and a totally different entity than CBS the broadcast network, that pursuing finding another outlet for continued production of Jericho is to their financial benefit. We don't do that by sending them stuff that they have to deal with and find a way to dispose of. We do this by writing the letters expressing how you feel to show these folks that there IS an audience there.

All ideas are welcome. This is just a direction that is not in the best interest of the campaign to follow. At least not at this time...later, as more develops, who knows?

Nuts is last year, I agree. CBS seems to be through with, I personally think the class act would be a surge of Thank Yous to them for season 2. That's what I am doing now.

I do think we get further courting with honey, than demanding with vinegar at this point. We want somebody (some network/moive producer) who is going to so something with it, to pick it up.

We want more Jericho, bottom line.

Are you kidding me I think that history books are a great idea I am a teacher and I cam come up with books. Attached will be thanks for season 2 note and I understand we do not want to send them anything they do not want to deal with but they can recycle them and promote how "green" they are!!! But after they talked about how the history was written so fast in the show it fits.

No really, I'm not kidding. Radio Free Jericho is not supprting or advocating the sending of objects of any sort whatsoever to anyone. It's not what the issue is about this time...people are entitled to their own opinion of that of course, but again, what we are here for is to present the most accurate and up to date information as to what efforts are worth pursuing and what efforts are a total waste of time and resources. At this time, and most likely until this is over, we will not be encouraging sending any objects to anyone.
