More Nick:
SCI-FI is neither confirming or denying they picked it up…
So now off to ABC to find answers.

Oh, this could be good. Will it be a day maker, or breaker!?!

I emailed Sci Fi and ABC last week. I don't know if I should email them again though.

I wonder if the Sci-Fi deal will still be twenty episodes beginning in the fall? So many questions. *waits not so patiently*

I was really happy Chuck got renewed, but then they said the new episodes would be in March... That was definitely an "... Oh..." moment. Hah. If I emailed Scifi a few days ago, should I do it again? |

March? Wow. That's like what happened to Reaper and it was the kiss of death being off the air for so long. I have a feeling that's the last season Chuck fans are going to get.
And yes, please e-mail sci-fi an excruciatingly polite letter telling them how happy you are and you can't wait to see Reaper on Sci-Fi and will tell all your friends to do the same.

I sent my email to Scy-Fy, so hopefully they'll either respond or announce the pickup in the next couple of days. We're soooooo close! |

Just sent another e-mail to SciFi assuring them that I and my family will be watching next year. Also, I just couldn't pass up the opportunity to throw in a few comments about how they should try to get ABC Studios attention on what we'd like to see in the way of stories in the future. I referred them to this site to see what the fans have been saying about what has worked (Tony & Steve, the rebellion, Gladys, mythology plots, Ben & Nina, etc.) and not worked (Sock & Kristen) in the way of plots over the first two years.

Ya, being off the air for that long is definitely not going to help. I'm just glad it got 1 more season. Speaking of another season, I just sent another email to Sci-Fi overflowing with compliments. So hopefully it will help. This waiting thing is kind of exhausting... Heh.

Stop the presses. According to Nick, it's not Sci-Fi. We await more info.....

virtue2, since you are the one with the email, per Nick's instructions: So, I suggest people who have emails saying "ABC says they sold to cable," forward that to James Hibberd at THR. Let a pro (whom helped me get a confirmation on SCI FI being a no) go after it. James.Hibberd@THR.com Please - everyone else, do NOT spam the man. We *will* get word sooner or later no matter how many people write in. Spamming him will only aggravate matters, not solve them. If anyone else has an email stating ABC/Disney has sold the show, please feel free to also send it in to Mr. Hibberd.

wdpender you win the prize for the best posting and emailing, and intel-gathering. Well, actually blue does, but she's disqualified from winning prizes here. Sorry, blue. And thanks for joining us, virtue, and welcome! When we've saved the show we'll do better at the get-to-know-you.  I am happy to help. I just got the time and the courage (thought I would shed some tears) to watch the Season (I will not say Series) Finale. I laughed, was nervous and had hope because the end still left an opening for new episodes. I am going to rewatch it again (can't let this one go and it will give me a REAPER FIX). These last few weeks, I have been doing more work campaigning for THE REAPER, TERMINATOR AND PRISON BREAK. HECK, EVEN MOONLIGHT, AND THEN CALLED NBC ABOUT MY OWN WORST ENEMY. Even though the last is hopeless I wanted to voice what I want to watch. Thank you for this website and all the work that the ADMIN. HAS DONE TO HELP KEEP REAPER ALIVE. Let me know what else I can do. Thanks, Pam (Virtue2) |

I don't want to sidetrack the receipts campaign, but I have been thinking for some time now about writing DirecTV about Reaper for broadcast on their 101 Channel. They are already doing that co-op thing with NBC and Friday Night Lights. I thought I'd suggest that they pick up Reaper and maybe work a co-op with a cable channel like SciFi, Comedy Channel, Spike, to split the cost of new episodes. I also pointed out that they would have two seasons of reruns for use on their 101 Channel. And most importantly, the 2.5 million loyal fans that will follow it wherever it goes. I'm hoping that others here will also write DirecTV about Reaper so that my e-mail will not be a suggestion of one. I really think this might be something worth pursuing. I'm guessing that ABC Studios probably did not pursue this angle. The web address for sending an e-mail to DirecTV is: www.directv.com/DTVAPP/global/contentPageIFnorail.jsp?assetId=P4960010#h:1080.926 |

I also made a thread for people to put up links to places they think us rabid Reaper fans should write to. So if you have suggestions (and honestly, I think there have been a few lost in here and some other threads) put them up. I am calling on all the Reaper fans here to swarm said sites with our rabid fandomness. reaperdmv.com/index.cgi?board=talk&action=display&thread=296&page=1#7820 |
