Subject: FK Episodes and DVD Emily wrote: >And I only have one episode on tape :( >I'm hoping that the series will be released on DVD eventually. >Hopefully Sony/Tristar won't wait for whatever comes and makes >DVD obsolete to release the series. I'm still hoping to see this happen (would love to replace all my copies taped off the SFC with professional copies), but, unfortunately a release on DVD isn't likely to happen anytime soon. Columbia Tristar has indicated that they are not currently releasing television series to DVD, but are waiting for a greater market for TV series on DVD. This info came to light in a chat between a representative from Columbia Tristar and members of the Home Theater Forum back in April. This info was in response to a question from one of the Forum members about a particular series he wanted to see released to DVD. The response from C/T: Quote: "TV is slow to develop in the format so far. There are a lot of TV shows out there on DVD, but few are selling, so we're going to let the market demand increase before jumping into those waters" End quote. Other studios are releasing TV series to DVD, but unfortunately C/T isn't among them. It's frustrating to see series that were on television for less time than FK released to both video and DVD, and FK hasn't even been released to video yet! I wonder how FK would have been handled if a different studio had the rights? Note that the above information doesn't apply to video -- the Home Theater Forum chat with C/T regards DVD releases only. :) Boomer ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 21 Jun 2000 10:57:09 -0700 From: fkforever <fkforever@y.......> Subject: YKYBW... When you see a magazine picture of a kid scawling.... and think of Schanke trying to feed Nick Eggs and Bacon for breakfast. ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 21 Jun 2000 21:33:22 -0400 From: Emily Lacey <laceye@a.......> Subject: YKYB... OK. I'll admit it. There is still one program on Sci-Fi that I will watch. (Now that I am admitting it, they will immediately take it off.) Every Mon-Thur as I get ready for work, I have "Starship Troopers" on in the room, because the CGI totally fascinates me. A few mornings ago I was actually paying attention to the credits and guess who the Asst. (Something) is? Tracy Balthazar. I wonder if she is kin to Grace, or if they got her name wrong and it should have been Vetter....

I am trying to figure out how to vote on this thing, and I can't get it.... perhaps I'm missing something important? I registered like I was supposed to so that I could be high level to vote.... and now I can't vote! How messed up is that?? ;o) Becky ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 21 Jun 2000 23:34:29 +0000 From: Kristin <kris1228@s.......> Subject: Re: Global Charts All you have to do to vote is go to this address: http://www.global100.com/vote.asp?Chart=6 Make sure Forever Knight is selected to add to your votes. Then type in your e-mail and password to vote. If you still have trouble e-mail the webmaster telling them the problem. If you're not on HIGH level you can increase your level on your Personal Card. This is where you can store information about yourself. Some of this data is used in the voting process to improve the quality of the charts. When you're new you start at the Low level. You can increase your level when your email address has been verified. The higher your level the more weight your votes have in the charts. If you answer the questions about your 'gender', 'birthday', 'location' and 'public address', you will get a High level. Hope this helps!

I pulled that baby out, and this is what it says about the timeframe we've been talking about: 1954 Chicago (Spin Doctor) 1960 Greenwich Village, NYC (Close Call) 1966 East Berlin (1966) 1964-68 Chicago (Amateur Night, Beyond the Law) 1971 South Vietnam (Can't Run, Can't Hide) c. 1975 LaCroix tells Nick this is when Janette came to Toronto (BB1) c. 1989 Nick tells Janette this is when he came to Toronto (DK1) So it does seem that our crusader has a thing for Chicago. He was there in '54, and we know that after that, he was in NYC long enough to get a driver's license there. But then, despite leaving Chicago on bad terms with some people, he was back in ten years. He was there for about 4 years, during which he took a trip to East Berlin (wasn't that specifically to find the Arabat?), then came back empty-handed, presumably returning to his job at the CPD. By '71 he was in Vietnam, but does that mean he was possibly in Chicago until 71? And it looks like we don't know his whereabouts until he showed up in Toronto in '89. I also hadn't realized Janette had been there for over 10 years by the time Nick arrived. Well, that's my lesson for today. and thanks to the writers of the timeline for it!! (glad i remembered i had it!) monica luscious lucius lover "I can be your strength when you have none. I can be your wisdom, your truth... and all you need to share with me is your very soul."

Go ahead and e-mail the two powers that be below asking for what you desire in the Knight (you can also re-use your letters for this 2 week blitz)... 1. Sci-fi: feedback@w....... 2. Tristar/Sony: http://www.spe.sony.com/spe/help_feedback_index.html .................................................. Forget what the blitz is about? Read below: It looks like these blitzes we have been doing are getting some attention! So we at KtK, are going to turn them into a monthly routine. This month we are focusing on the two main powers, Tristar and Sci-fi. Its going to be a double dose of e-mails from each of you the fans that would love to not only have FK back on Sci-fi's schedule, but want to make sure everyone knows that we are want more FK with the original cast in new episodes and or movies!! So, what do you say? Are you ready to sit down, take that few minutes and send off two e-mails? It could make all the difference in the world! Remember, say a little or say a lot, but say it!! We can make more FK happen!!! June 12th, through June 24th, we are asking everyone to blitz both feedbacks!!! For the two weeks, you can re-use the e-mails you did before, or write new ones. They can be long, or as short as just saying, "Bring Back Forever Knight." ALSO REMEMBER!! Sci-fi will be changing its schedule around in June, and again in the fall.... lets make sure that we get Forever Knight on!!! Sci-Fi's E-mail: feedback@w....... Sony/Tristar Mail Form: http://www.spe.sony.com/spe/help_feedback_index.html When e-mailing TriStar,(especially) give as much personal info as you can...rather than just an e-mail name. A bit more personal carries more weight with TPTB. I also made a button/banner for the upcoming blitzing, which you can use to help spread the word, by putting this on your site (you can get off my save fk page). http://members.xoom.com/forever_nick/Forever_Knight ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 22 Jun 2000 11:13:10 CDT From: "Emily M.Hanson" <emily.m.hanson@u.......> Subject: Re: [Re: [FORKNI-L] Nick and Wrigley Field] Nick sure gets around, doesn't he?

Just a quick announcement to let everyone know the results of our first annual 'Upper Canada Celebration Weekend'. A number of people have written and asked how we did, so we thought we would post the results to the various lists, my apologies to those who receive this more than once. Our final total (from the auctions, t-shirt sales, etc.) is C$3,513.27 or approximately US$2300. We want to say a huge "thank you!" to our guests who made this weekend such a wonderful success. We will be posting more details of the Weekend and its events to our UCC website in the weeks to come, so drop by frequently to see what's new! See the URL in my sig, below Also, because of the many donations received from Ger's generous fans, we ended up with too many items to auction 'live'. Therefore, this announcement also serves as a way to let everyone know that we will be running an Internet Auction in the very near future. We have many wonderful and unique items to offer for sale, so stay tuned! :-) Of course, proceeds from this auction, as well as from the weekend events, will be donated to The Hospital For Sick Children in honour of Geraint Wyn Davies. -- Marg, in Toronto, the City of the Knight <mytoronto@h.......> Please visit the Upper Canada Connection - A Canadian Tribute to Geraint Wyn Davies: http://members.home.net/gwducc/index.htm ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 22 Jun 2000 16:18:55 +0000 From: Kristin <kris1228@s.......> Subject: Ooh Cool! FK's Climbing Again!! :) Hey guys! Guess what?! FK's #6 now!! We must have gotten some NEW voters! And/or new High Level voters! Very good!! Want to vote to enforce the position? Go here: http://www.global100.com/vote.asp?Chart=6 THINGS TO KNOW WHEN VOTING: #1. IMPORTANT: Those of you who are not on "High Levels" please simply answer your questions on the personal card about gender, birth,etc. It's very simple and does not take long and it REALLY helps your weight on the charts! If every one can get up to HIGH level, it can really help FK's position! If you have questions about this please feel free to ask me by e-mail (kris1228@s.......). #2. NEW VOTERS: We REALLY need NEW voters who have never voted for FK before on the chart. Please, if you have not voted before click on the address below, and then click I'm a New User. Then follow the easy rules to sign up. We really need you! (and don't forget this chart is sent in to TPTB monthly with the petitions!) The DON'T's:: #1. DON'T repeat with multiple e-mail addresses either! They reconize your ISP addresses and it will do more damage than good, lowering weight of all your votes. #2. DON'T be an Anonymous! Please actually sign up and follow the easy steps to become a much better HIGH voter. Well, that's it! Just wanted to tell you all the good news! :) Kristin ------------------------------ End of FORKNI-L Digest - 21 Jun 2000 to 22 Jun 2000 (#2000-180) ***************************************************************
