Subject: Fuzzy creatures beware!

Hello,    (Yes it's a generic greeting, but I'm only two
                 and that's the only word I can say)

     I've kicked my personal servant, Ann, (you know,
the featherless person whom I graciously allow to wait
on me wing and talon) off my computer so I can make
one point perfectly clear (and at the decibel level of a
747 that's not at all difficult.)  Forever Knight is and
has always been FOR THE BIRDS!  Vampires...I can't
tell you know much I admire these guys.  As a parrot I
can tell you they may not have feathers, but can they ever
fly.  Their claws are ALMOST as sharp as mine.  And I thought
I was good at drawing blood, those vampires just PUT ME
TO SHAME!  Just one complaint though...I have never
seen even one bird at the RAVEN, not one!
     Not to worry, I've declared that there will be many
more seasons of Forever Knight (cause they'll hear me
all the way to Tokyo if I don't get my way),  so they'll
be plenty of time to rectify this oversight.

   Hello (Good-bye)

Subject: Whither SOS-FK? (long)

Hello Everyone --

For all that there's been a lot of speculation about a "last episode" of FK
making continuing the show impossible I want to quote something Sharon H.
wrote:

"Remember how absolutely different "Human Factor" ended up being from the
spoilers we heard?  Spoilers aren't necessary accurate, and the people
we're getting spoilers from may be working off of early drafts of scripts,
partial cuts of episodes, etc"

Until we know exactly what the last ep of Season 3 contains we probably have
to take a wait & see attitude.  Even if the last ep should contain an
"ending", this is "Television". (Many wonderful examples have been posted
... if TPTB or someone with enough $$ wants it back, they will find a way --
trust me on this!)

As someone posted way back in December  -- we're in this for the long
haul--- Even should TPTB try to chase us off with a disastrous last episode
-- We're not going anywhere!

I loved the person who said that we're part of TriStar's life now -- even if
it's sold or changes hands -- we'll just pack our bags & travel along -- and
if TPTB think "ending" the series will make us "go away", well...  I
wouldn't bet on it!

In the mean time, there _are_ some things we can be doing: I've been
querying people involved in various aspects of the SOS-FK campaign & here's
what I have culled (any errors and omissions are mine, I'm just trying to
compile a list):

What's up with SOS-FK???

1. The "Bring a Friend Across" contest continues. Win prizes and honors for
doing something your probably already do all the time -- Introducing your
friends to FK! The basic idea -- you introduce someone to FK (or many some
ones to FK) and write Annemarie & tell her about it --  prizes awarded for
most, best, uhhh... see Annmarie's post or write her for details at
<mickey@c.......>. Don't miss out on this!

2. Forever Knight Wishing Cranes project -- Send 1000 cranes to Sony execs.
all with the same wish -- "More Forever Knight".  Can wishes come true -- I
believe! Check Diane E's web page at
<http://www.execpc.com/~echelbar/fkcranes.html>
or contact East Coast Coordinator,  Viper c/o Diane at <gryphon@e.......>or
West Coast Coordinator, Bonnie at <bonnie@o.......>

3. Continue to periodically to write (yes, groan,  more....) letters
remember what Fred Mollin said:
>Please keep the pressure on with your local stations, Sony, TriStar and even
>USA Network.
>If the fans continue to raise their voices, people will take notice and maybe
>there will be a possibility of another FK incarnation!

Also --- quoting something Laurie C-F wrote me (first appearance on the list
so I won't snip to 4 lines)

"We should try to keep the letter writing campaign going, on a staggered
basis.  We should encourage people to write a letter or two every four
to six weeks, to TriStar, USA, their local syndie, a sponsor, whoever.
Make sure they know we're still around.  And that we want FK reruns.
We want new FK episodes or movies.  We want FK tapes.  We want FK
merchandise.  And we're not going away until we get them. <g>"

Lost the addresses for Sony, USA or TriStar? -- Karen Tobin
<ktobin@t.......> has them all!  Remember if Sony wants to they have the
power to decide how the show will end -- or not end...

4.  Continue to raise $$ for Pediatric Aids Foundation (PAF).  There are a
lot of Hollywood honchos on their board & it's a worthy thing to do!  Lisa
Prince is willing to keep the donation mailbox open and is developing a
brochure so if you're going to a convention or taking to people about FK you
might want to get one of these by e-mailing her at  <Moonlight@g.......>.
Also Laurie C-F has been in contact with the production company about the
possibility of an auction of some smaller props to benefit PAF (details once
she has any - nothing yet).  Lest anyone find this depressing  - remember
this is just
*stuff* -- the show is ideas and stories & actors.  Props are easily replaced!

5. Continue to try & publicize FK any way we can.  If you have any media
contacts (C'mon think!), Cynthia Hoffman <choff@v.......>has a
press kit developed. Contact her about how to get one sent to someone you know!

6)  A "Friends of Forever Knight" email list.  Not a discussion group but a
way to get information about SOS-FK to people. Primarily for people who are
on-line and not subscribed to FORKNI-L.  Send folks who need this info to
Annmarie at <mickey@r.......>

7) A "Friends of Forever Knight" snail mailing list.  This is a snail mail list
for people who are not on-line, but are still interested in the SOS-FK
movement.  It's home base is the SOS-FK P.O. Box that has appeared on the
flyers and brochures up to this point.  Let's collect names of fans we talk
to who aren't on line and send them to Lana at <lgs@i.......>. The
snail mail address is "Friends of Forever Knight, SOS-FK, [Address removed]"

        As we move into the show in re-runs and possibly all three seasons
being re-run in a strip, more and more people are going to find this
wonderful TV show -- and they're going to be upset when they find out there
are no more eps -- and we've got to be there to help them figure out what to
*do* about it! W ith all the wonderful stuff everyone has done so far I know
we can find a way.

       This community _will_ prove to be an irresistible force in the long
term, the "object" is just a little heavier that we first thought!

Subject: One last thing about Dark Natties

In the immortal words of Homer Simpson: Doh!

I woke up this morning and realized what we were really arguing about
concerning Dark Natties.  Semantics!  Here's the deal: A Nattie is the same
thing as a Natpacker.  Call it shorthand, or a diminutive, like someone being
called Nick instead of Nicholas.  It rolls off the tongue better.  Therefore,
if, as Jamie says, there can be Dark Natpackers, then, by definition, there
can be Dark Natties! :)

The reason I said Dark Natties at the party last weekend, instead of Dark
Natpackers was because "Dark Natties" is phonetically a lot closer to "Dark
Knighties."  Yes?  Yes.  What I said was: "If there can be Dark Knighties,
there can be Dark *Natties*!"  It was a play on words, and, oddly enough,
several people have taken a liking to it as a faction. ;)  Including myself.

So we have been arguing over words, not their meaning.  :)  Man, and to think
I changed from an English major to anthropology!  I think I missed my
calling.

Subject: The Revenge Story

Hey all,
I posted the "Eternal Champion" story to FKFIC last night.  (I changed a
killing scene to a hypnotizing scene after I had a nightmare that the police
came and got me when Jon Feltheimer ended up dead stapled to the hood of his
car just like in the story...)  Anyway, the revenge is still there.  Several
people asked me to send them a copy because they aren't on FKFIC, but I've
lost the list of who it was.  Anyone who wants a copy, please let me know.
 Thanks for all the positive comments so far.

By the way, is there a way to set FKFIC to adult stories only?  I know how to
include them, but I don't know how to exclude the other stuff.  Yeah, yeah, I
know I'm a corrupt little thing ain't I?  But my mailbox is exploding with

Subject: Top eight episodes

Okay, so I can't resist putting my own two cents forward on this.

Before I do, though, I want to add my agreement to a point that's been
made on the list recently.  I do think the season that you became a fan
definitely does affect your outlook on the show.  First season produced
a lot of Knighties, Natpackers, and N&Npackers.  Second season produced
a lot of Cousins and FoDs.  Third season, like the first, has tended to
produce Knighties, Natpackers, N&Npackers and also, with the addition
of Vachon, Vacqero/a/s.  I think this was partly a result of the types
of episodes that were done in those seasons (it was a lot easier to
become a Cousin second season than first, and a lot harder to become a
Natpacker).  But I also think it is a function of differing
personalities and tastes.  I would not have become a fan of Forever
Knight in first season.  In fact, I vaguely remember trying to watch an
episode once and turning it off.  The story going on at that time was
just not that compelling to me.  One of my best friends was a fan from
the very beginning, and she encouraged me to get into the show, but I
just wasn't interested.  I got hooked on the dysfunctional family drama
aspect that was brought out in second season, not on Nick's quest for
mortality that predominated in first.  And having had many discussions
offlist on this topic with various people, I know there are similar
stories out there.

Okay, enough rambling.  On to the list.  I tried to put together a list
of my top ten, but I couldn't come up with ten that were really at that
same top level of enthrallment.  What I ended up with were eight super
super favorites, and ten super favorites.  Needless to say, it reflects
my Cousinly leanings <g>.  Here goes:

1.  Father's Day.  (The ep that hooked me on the show.)
2.  A More Permanent Hell.  (for the LC origins story, the wonderful
philosophical discussion with Nick in the loft, and the bitterness of
the tag)
3.  Curiouser & Curioser.  (for the sheer brilliance of it)
4.  Be My Valentine  (for the Nat/LC stuff)
5.  The Fix  (for its joyousness - Nick gets his day in the sun)
6.  Sons of Belial (for the Nick/LC stuff)
7.  Night in Question (for the Nick/Nat/LC stuff)
8.  Close Call  (for the Schanke/Nightcrawler scene, with Nick and
Janette watching papa <g>)

Six from second season, two from third (what can I say; LaCroix was
mostly dead and/or fighting with Nick in first season;  as I said, I'm
not a great first season fan.)

In addition to the foregoing, my very very close runnersup, are:

>From first season:  Only the Lonely, Feeding the Beast, Unreality TV, I
Will Repay, Dying for Fame  (I would never say there aren't wonderful
episodes in first season;  just that they don't push my particular
buttons to the same extent as some other episodes)

>From second season: Fate Worse than Death, Stranger Than Fiction,
Hunted, Partners of the Month

>From third season:  Fever

Listen to the exchange between Vachon and Nick in the Caddy in Trophy
Girl--especially the way GWD says "question" in "it's a question of trunk
space." I think I've rewound and replayed the scene 50 times just to hear
him say that.

Here's my top episode list, from the standpoint of the memory-impaired:

2) The one with Nat and LaCroix at the restaurant.
3) The one that spawned all that neat asteroid fiction.
4) The one where Nick eats French fries.
5) The one where Nick eats pasta.
6) The one with the drummers!
7) The one where Schanke bangs up Nick's car.
8) The one where Nat pretends to freak out.
9) The one with the HEAD INJURY.
10) The one with the TATTOOES.

I guess WWOR is one of those cable stations whose content varies across
the US, because Airwolf is not shown on the WWOR station that my cable
company (Comacast) carries. I looked for it at 6:00p, 7:00p, and 8:00p
yesterday and no luck. I don't know which WWOR station it is (I thought it
was Seacaucus, NJ, but I could be wrong) but I wasn't able to catch a
station identification to find out.

Sigh. I really wanted to see those Airwolf episodes with Ger.

Perhaps someone could explain how WWOR works (i.e., why it is available
across the country but its local programming seems to vary)? I don't get it.

That was hilarious. I thought of FK every time someone would call Sam
"Nigel". There were so many little things that were FK-ish, it was uncanny.
Even the vampire's wife was played by someone who had acted with Ger (in
"Ghost Mom" - at least I think it was her). Major deja vu went on!

"What is that?" (Sam)
"This? It's a cross." (Al)
"No, that."
"It's garlic."
"I know it's garlic. Why is it around your neck?"
Somehow, that just made me think of Schanke...

And this next quote made me think of Uncle:
(Al telling Sam he thinks the guy is a vampire) "He's got all the classic
signs. He's got the pale complexion, the beady eyes, the lustful stare."
"Al... you just described yourself."

I can't help it now - all vampire stuff I see, I relate to FK. I could *not*
watch the X-Files episode "3" with a straight face. When the guy imploded in
the holding cell I lost it completely...

This is a favourite, also. The look on Nick's face clinched that one for me.
And I love how, in such a few episodes, he really came to care about
Schanke. He realised that Schanke was just all warm and fuzzy inside. :)

 Pe> 8.  "Night in Question" --

My favourite scene is when Nick is in the hospital, eating soup, and Nat and
Reese come to talk to him. I had to just about be revived after that scene!
He looked *so* gorgeous. All confused and cute and sweet and divine and
little boyish! I especially like it when Reese introduces himself as, "Joe

This is a beautiful part. I cried, too.

Oh, yeah. I ran around the house yelling, "No shirt! He didn't have on a
shirt! No shirt!" Then I rewound the tape about ten times. That scene is set
up really well, and Nick was so concerned for that poor girl.

 Pe> My oh my.  "Feeding the Beast" is her #1 episode.  She *is* a Dark
 Pe> Knightie, isn't she?  Best line from that episode -- "I'll show her
 Pe> what backsliding really means" (or something to that effect).

That is my favourite scene - when he *almost* bites that girl, and then asks
Natalie if she's seeking some "dark, sexual thrill". Natalie just says,
"That is enough!" What, Nat, are you NUTS, woman?! And I *love* that quote -
"Monica says that recovery is just the space between fixes. *He vamps out* I
think I'll show her what backsliding really is!" I had to be revived with
smelling salts after that one.

I think I would like it! See, Nick, from all accounts, was *happy* in that
episode. That's what I want - for Nick to be happy. Except I think that
trying to be human is not making Nick happy. Learning to accept what he is
would make him happy. (Though, I have to confess, I like it when he bites
people.)

Other favourite scenes:

* Only the Lonely - The scene where Nat and Roger come back to Nat's place
to find Nick there. The best part is when Nat is trying to tell Roger that
"this is purely work related" - and Nick puts his arm around her. He looked
SO possessive! I love how he backslides afterwards, telling her he feels
protective, like towards a sister. Shame!

* Sons of Belial - Uncle's monolgue right at the end. 'Nuff said. Brilliant
stuff.

* Trophy Girl - The flashback where Nick eats LaCroix's dinner. Whew.

* Last Act - The flashback where Nick and Erica are lying together and she
talks about seeing castles and stuff. Nick just says, "The Crusades." Erica
says, "You were wounded. Nearly killed." And Nick just says, "Yes." I dunno,
he said it in such a matter-of-fact manner, it really got to me. That was
his lifestyle, he nearly died, and he just accepts it.

Well, enough of that. There are many scenes I like with Uncle in them, too.
(That's what's nice about being a Dark Knightie - you get to admire Uncle,
not hate him. :)

Au contraire, mes amis.  I think she very definitely was angry with him.
She snarled at him when he showed up, and although she didn't get too out
of line, my impression was that she was holding herself tightly in
control to prevent it.

I managed to slow down enough last night to turn on the Airwolf ep for
about ten minutes. I have to say this--the show itself annoys me severely,
and I'd never watch it for itself, but getting to see GWD walking around in
a flight suit (read: form-fitting in the extreme) is well worth it. The
other dude isn't half bad looking either. Plus, GWD looks like he's having
such fun being silly.

blood to drink (he pours it into a dish), and Jodi is impressed that he
takes it after refusing all the food she's been offering. My question: do
dogs like Ribena?

Yes, yes, a thousand times YES!!!  Allow us to opine a bit.  We too know the
merits of a good cat, especially with Texas-style barbeque sauce and a
little potato salad on the side <gobble>.  Count us in as WoofPackers with

Subject: Re: Spam charm

Out of curiousity but did any of you catch, yesterday, I think it was on
American Journal - a part about Spam? They questioned whether its organic
or not. So, they did an experiment. They set Spam on a plate next to a
piece of pickle and a banana. They found that the Spam attracted bacteria
away from the pickle and banana. This started within the first week.
However, after (I think) 60 days, nothing was recognizable! So, there is
another purpose for Spam - to keep bacteria away from your other food and
keep them edible!

It's the Spam Cam!!!

Experiment 2 is now well underway. This one with Spam, jello, a tomato, and a
Twinkie!! My son makes me go look at it every day, so he can watch!

OOTC: The bringing across of said son is now complete. We have to watch at
least one Forever Knight episode every night. My daughter is also interested,
now, but.....<sigh>. She shows strong signs of being a Perkulator.

Subject: Bring Someone Across

I echo all of Toni's words (which she said so very well!) And now..for those
who may have forgotten or those newbies out there!

                         Bring Someone Across Contest

Its very simple...just bring a new viewer across to FK!
You can do this by having a get together at your house during a broadcast or
you can have tapes on hand of your favorite episodes and a few flyers made
up with information about when FK is shown in your area.

If its an out of town friend,send them a tape along with the information
when FK is shown in *their* area.

Now,if your having it at your house,have some stationary avilable and pen
out some letters to TPTB, Sony,TriStar and your local affiliate. If its a
USA re-run,write to USA, have the "newbie" ask when they will see new
episodes. We all know that USA isn't showing any more new ones,but a new
viewer wouldn't.
You send a new letter stating the people that you have brought across and
the newbie writes that they were brought across by you!
This cuts down on the boredom of the same ole letters that you have to write
and its a change for TPTB that they are seeing new viewers coming into the fold.

Then send me a letter letting me know who you brought across and a copy of
the letters that were sent. I need this so that we can have some verification.

We have an autographed copy by Fred Mollin of the artwork for his new CD
that is coming out and I'm waiting to receive autographed copies of FK
original scripts!
So..these are nice prizes to have for FK fans! All you have to do is bring
across new viewers! And Susan Garrett has some other great vampire related
prizes too!

I want to add that flyers are so important. Insert them everywhere! Put one
in your phone bill,electric bill,cable bill any thing that you send out on a
monthly basis,you never know who you are going to reach with one of these
flyers! Just add on to it where FK can be found in your viewing area.

Remember..I was one of the viewers of this show who never knew about the
original campaign to save it after season one...go out and find the people
like me! The ones who do care about what happens to FK,but don't know how to
go about saving it.

You can see by my note the other day that the FK fans in Australia have a
regular get together,organize the same thing in your area. Talk it up to
your coworkers,all they have to do is see it to be hooked! We all were :)

The address to send your copies to is: [Address removed]

IMHO, I would think so because it's sweet. To add support for this . . .
my dog, Bear, will eat/drink just about anything - he has a 'bottomless pit.'

Ok, I want to know what's going on. My family's newspaper tv guide said
this Saturday, we'd have 2 hours of FK (remember my prior post?) which
would make a nice gift to me after taking my comps. Well, I got the TV
Guide in the mail on Wednesday and it says they are showing "Freaky
Friday" instead!!!!!  I am hoping this is an error - Yes, I am happy to have it
on at its usual, 11:30 pm, but I was  really looking forward to relaxing
with FK at 7 pm after my comps.

Off to study for tomorrow!

So, does this mean, you were involved with the first experiment? What
ever possessed you to come up with the experiment?

Fantastic! I got my mom back to watching FK wiith me - she hasn't had any
more dreams about Nick. I guess the thought scares her. Why? I have no
idea - I wish I had even more dreams of Nick and LC.

I told my mother about it when I was down there, and tried to get her to
watch. She's too normal. She already thinks I've hit the realm of strange.

Hi all!  I called GNP/Crescendo about the Forever Knight CD this morning and
they are taking orders now.

Their number is 1-800-000-0000.   The price of the CD is $12.98 plus $3
postage.  The order number is #8043.  The lady I talked to said they haven't
decided if they will also issue it on cassette tape.  The CD is not yet ready
to ship, but those who call now will be among the first to receive it.
 FINALLY!!

the weekend and I wanted to print a few fan-fic pieces for her to stave off
her fk-deprived shakes. Problem is that a lot of the stories that I enjoyed

(She brought me across, so I feel I owe her something (a BIG something :-)

Subject: My Silly FK Top Ten List

All right, I came up with this while in the grip of a silly mood. :)
I've been advised that I should post it to the list, so here goes!

>From the home office in Moose Jaw:

The Top Ten Things We'll Never See On Forever Knight:

10. LaCroix decides on a whole new look for The Raven: Country &
Western.

9. We discover the real reason for LaCroix' third season transformation:
he's been mixing Prozac with his blood.

8. Nick finally realizes who his true love is and moves to a farm in
Vermont so that he can be near Elsie.

7. Vachon discovers he has a true calling as a Chippendale's dancer.

6. The real reason Reese can't use the water cooler: Nick whammied it.

5. When the C & W idea doesn't pan out, LaCroix thinks that a La Cage
Aux Folles theme is just the ticket.

4. Nat discovers the cure to vampirism is Mentos: the Freshmaker.

3. LaCroix gets tired of the "amateurs" performing on strip night, and
decides to get up there and show them how it's done.

2. Nick gets tired of seeing LaCroix perform on strip night, and
decides to get up there and show him how it's done.

And the number one Thing We'll Never See On Forever Knight:

Nat *doesn't* get tired of seeing Nick and LaCroix perform on strip
night, and goes broke sticking dollar bills in their underwear.


I hope you enjoyed it! ;) If you did or didn't; please e-me and let me
know. Thanks!
