I have an announcement to make: The Jamie-not-smoking thing is just not going to happen. Yes, I am perfectly aware that I wrote a post not long ago about how we shouldn't/couldn't/mustn't renege on our sacrificial vows. Yes, that was me. I said that. I admit it. And rather than go into a long, involved monologue on all the completely valid reasons why quitting smoking is a VERY bad thing for Jamie at this particular time, why quitting is actually worse for my health than smoking itself... easier simply to concede the obvious: I'm caving. I'm a pitiful, weak creature, and I can't do it. There is the mildly extenuating fact that "we" didn't pull this off; the continuation of the third season is purely business, and has nothing whatsoever to do with our efforts. "We" have not yet been noticed. This is something that has to change, naturally. But that's not the point of this post. The point of this post is that two hours without a cigarette is enough to transform me into a twelve-foot hulking beast with porcupine quills and fangs and claws, dripping venom and wielding a chainsaw, intent on homicide and mass destruction -- and this is not a useful character trait at the moment. Naturally, I understand that penance must be paid. Something else must be done, to make up for my grievous lack of integrity. Somehow, I must balance the cosmic karmic scales, so that I may redeem myself. And in the spirit of fairness, I am inviting my fellow listmaniacs to offer input on just what that 'penance' might be. I await your comments with immense trepidation. -- KEEP THE FAITH!

I was telling my doctor why I was doing more exercising (my vow to ride the Healthrider at least three times a week for at least 20 minutes) and was explaining how USA dropped the show mid season and he said: "Oh, USA is a white trash network."

I found out today. I was sending a wire to Jon Feltheimer at Tri-Star from a local mailing/packing/faxing place. After I sent the wire, the owner asked me What show are you trying to save, if you don't mind my asking?" Not at all," I said, It's called FOREVER KNIGHT." You're KIDDING! They're canceling FK?" he said. FOREVER KNIGHT? But that's my favorite show!" said the clerk. One of the customers looked up and said, Did I hear that right? No more FOREVER KNIGHT? They can't DO that!" Oh, no, that's my son's favorite too!" said another lady. And the last customer in the shop said, ALL of you like it too? I NEVER miss it!" And every single one of them asked me for the addresses to USA and Tri-Star so that they could write! Now, if this had happened at a SF bookstore it wouldn't have struck me so. But here is a show that they want to cancel because Neilsen says so few are watching and yet, in a regular shipping facility full of ordinary people, EVERY SINGLE PERSON present had not only heard of it, but watched it and liked it enough to want to DO something to save it! Pretty good numbers, I'D say! And a pretty convincing demonstration that the viewer base for FOREVER KNIGHT is much MUCH bigger than anyone ever thought! ===================================================================== Dianne (Who found a fan at the computer place when her CPU was in the shop a few days ago.

I just wanted to say what a great job everyone is doing. I think you're all amazing. I don't know if I should post this here, but here goes. Here are two addresses for those of you who live in the Cincinnati, OH and Lexington, KY area. I've written two letters to each. WXIX-TV in Cincinnati carries FK and I wrote thanking them and asking them to ask for FK at the NATPE. WDKY-TV in Lexington aired FK before it went to USA. I wrote to them asking if they would pick it back up and also to ask for it at the NATPE. I hope this helps.

OK everyone, the Hormel product that was advertised was SPAM LITE. As far as I know there wasn't an ad during FK for the regular SPAM; correct me if I'm wrong and you remember a SPAM ad. I recall that the ad for SPAM LITE was shown during "Blackwing" in December on USA. No, I am not biased by the fact that I have a can of SPAM LITE sitting on top of my computer right now as inspiration. ;) Of course Hormel makes a lot of other convenient canned foods, like chili, corned beef, etc. You can tell them you ran out and bought a bunch of their products based on an ad for SPAM LITE during FK! If you are planning on contacting sponsors and you have web access, there is an absolutely terrific section on sponsors on Jamie's "Save Forever Knight" page. Point your web browser to: http://members.aol.com/cuznjamimr/adv/mastradv.htm This lists advertisers by product. Pick the products you buy or plan to start buying, & write or call. If you can't recall whether the ad appeared on USA or on a syndicated station, just say that you watch FK on both. I think they'll understand. At this point Hormel and America On-Line should be so impressed with the letters/calls/e-mails sent to them by this group that they should be willing to sponsor the show together! ;) Imagine if you will this annoucement during the show: "Forever Knight -- brought to you by SPAM and SPAM LITE, foods that last *forever*; and by America On-Line -- 'You've got mail from FORKNI-L!'

I just thought you guys might want to see this. When Ms. Norat-Phillips responded to Jane S.'s letter, she didn't really answer the question about a 4th season so I gave it a try. I think she answered the question this time, but I'm not really sure if I'm interpretating it properly. I think she's saying that WKBW wants to air a fourth season, but she doesn't really come right out and say it. Anyways, the respnse to my letter is below. My comments are in the sqare bracket. Oh! I wrote back asking her to *ask* for it at NATPE. Hope she does!

There is a strong e-mail campaign going for Forever Knight. Yours is the twelfth communication I've had this week. [That's good to know! How about we make it even stronger? :-)] Unfortunately I don't hold out much hope for this show. [Uh oh!] As you know we have a contractual agreement to carry Forever Kight until the end of August [That means the rest of the 3rd season, at least] and we are planning to honor that commitment as long as the show is delivered. [I'm interpreting this as they want to keep airing FK. Does this mean a 4th season as well...what do you think?] Hiwever, if there are no original episodes being produced I'm sure Columbia will not offer it out again in syndication. Hope the fans of Forever Knight find something else they enjoy watching on NewsChannel 7. Feel free to share you ideas and opinions with us.

No werewolf ever wore a cummerbund." Well no, but I'll bet no vampire ever sported a rhinestone dog collar. Which begs the question, if FK were successfully transferred to Warner Brothers network, would they proceed to 'modify' it further by adding a companion werewolf to Nick's vampire? Not farfetched, seeing as USA deliberately stuffed Tracey and Vachon onto the show to adapt it to their desired demographic. If we carry this concept further, we can postulate that if FK went to the Cartoon Network, Nick's new partner would be Scooby Doo, if it went to Discovery Channel his new partner would be Shamu, if it went to MTV he would have one of the Jacksons as a partner, and if it went to The Weather Channel, he would be saddled with Dr. Hope, the Hurricane expert.

Of course, it required a Ravenette to think of this. Of course, it is the ONLY way a Ravenette should be treated. I think that if we get a fourth season and Susan cuts her hair, she should be treated to the whole luxury spa/makeover thing. I do believe that Janette would want it that way. -- KEEP THE FAITH!

She told me that they do plan to carry FK for the rest of the season, which also includes the new eps (Strings airs Saturday). I encouraged them to ask about FK and the NATPE convention next week. They said that they have received alot of calls about FK and the ratings beat out the programming in their time slot (They air it at 1 am here against the new Outer Limits and a repeat of the 11 o'clock news) They commented on how nice that people have been when they call the station asking about FK and also if they offer it at the Convention, they would pick it up for another season...

Garrett" <susang@v.......> Subject: WNYW Syndication Phone call My phone call to WNYW went something like this, once I got through to programming: "Hi, my name is Susan Garrett and I watch Forever Knight on your station." "One minute--" Clickety-click of keyboard. "Yes, we show that." "Sunday at 1:00 AM." "Yes." "I wanted to ask if you plan on buying a fourth season of Forever Knight." "We've cancelled a few shows recently because of the ratings--things get cancelled because of the ratings--but Forever Knight hasn't been cancelled. It's not doing great, but it's been picking up and does pretty well." "I wanted to get a fourth season press kit--" (Little lie, but I <would> like one) "And I've been told that TriStar won't be putting out a fourth season unless they get calls from the syndicators asking them to put out a fourth season." "Is that a FOX show?" "No, it's a TriStar show." "If you need the number for TriStar, I can give it to you--" "No, I HAVE, that number, thanks anyway. TriStar has said that they don't want to hear from ME, they want to hear from YOU and any of the syndicators who want a fourth season. I know the NATPE conference is in a couple of weeks. Do you know if the station was planning to buy FK?" "Well, they don't let me go, so I don't know, but the ratings have been okay, so I can't see why not. What you should do is calls us back in four to six weeks, after NATPE--" "No--that will be too late. TriStar is NOTgoing to offer a new season of FK at NATPE unless they hear from the stations before NATPE. They want to know there are enough stations interested before they'd be willing to offer it at NATPE. Could you pass along the word to have someone call TriStar and tell them that you're interested in picking the show up at NATPE?" "I'm pretty certain we're going to pick up the new season--" "There will be NO NEW SEASON, unless you have someone call and tell them that you'd like to buy it at NATPE." "Oh. Okay." "Thank for your time. And could you make certain that someone calls TriStar and mentions that they want to purchase Forever Knight for WNYW for a fourth season, because I'd really like to see a fourth season of Forever Knight on WNYW." This is pretty much verbatim. The woman was very nice, but couldn't quite grasp what I was on about. I think I repeated my request to have them call TriStar enough times so that she'll pass along the message, but just to be on the safe side, I'm faxing them a follow-up letter thanking them for talking to me and mentioning again that they have to call Tri-Star. Now all I have to do is wait for Philly to thaw and call THEM.

As long as anyone here has known me, I have been a blonde in disguise. At the moment, I'm in the process of growing out what was SUPPOSED to be a temporary (out in 24 shampoos) black color job left over from my last show; I'm leaving what's growing in its natural color until I can cut off the remaining black without looking like Sinead O'Connor. (Right now I'm at about a 1:2 ratio; I look like a gold-plated skunk...) By that time, I expect that we will know one way or another about fourth season. So... I hereby pledge that if we get a third season, I will not color my hair for ONE FULL YEAR. This pledge is null and void if I am required to do so for a role (I do still have *some* sense of priorities... ;-) ) However, the challenge is increased by the nice package of henna waiting patiently for me in my bathroom cupboard. Acceptable balance? Prepared to weather twelve months of blonde jokes for FK... Valerie Lynn Meachum <valerie@l.......> FOREVER KNIGHT IS IN IMMINENT DANGER OF CANCELLATION!

You're role-playing with another FK fan who is playing a police officer. Finding ourselves on an airplane taken over by terrorists, the officer suddenly stops and says, "Man, I could go for a souvlaki about now!" and the two of you die laughing while everyone else just stares.

Garrett" <susang@v.......> Subject: Fan Q Nomination forms are available! Pardon this post, but it's in the way of bringing more attention to FK and FK Fiction. Each year, awards are given in May at MediaWest*Con for fanfiction published the previous year. The nomination forms are now available for all fan fiction printed (this means hard-copy, read fanzine printing) between January 1, 1995 and December 31, 1995. I haven't seen the form yet, but there are usually a number of categories, including Best Novel (or solo publication), Best Short Story, Best Fanzine (collection of short stories), etc., for a particular series. In past years, adult and slash stories were given their own categories. For two years in a row, we've managed to send in a sufficient number of nominations to warrant a "Forever Knight" category and all but one of the short story nominees from last year were originally posted on FK-FIC! The rules (and more information) will be available with the nomination form. Send a self-addressed, stamped envelope to: Susan Cooper 0000 Xxxxxxxxxx Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx Xxxx, XX 00000 And request a nomination form for the Fan Q's. IN ADDITION, I'm putting together a list this year (like I did last year) of all FK fiction printed in fanzines that would be eligible for nomination this year. If you have published a zine or written fiction that's appeared in a published zine, please send me: The name of the story/poem/novel (and indicate which it is) The name of the fanzine The copyright date (publication date) The name of the author The name of the editor or publisher The editor or publisher's address Whether the item is a crossover with another media Whether the item is adult in nature or slash (If they require more information this year, I'll let you know.) By the end of next week I hope to have a list of fiction eligible for the 1995 awards available for dissemination and posting. If you would like to post the list on your website or want a copy to use when filling out your nomination forms, please e-mail me. Remember, supporting the writers and publishers of FK fiction is supporting the future of FK--whether we win or lose our fight for a fourth season, FK fiction will continue to keep the show alive in the hearts and minds (and other places--for the JADFE list) of many fans.
