Maybe you should create a dummy account with no apparent ties. I think they may be worried about self-promotion.

I just sent in my receipt! Like, ten seconds ago. I'm a good fan now! XD
Funny thing is, when I bought the DVD, my mom said, "Didn't I get you that before?" When I told her she got me the FIRST season, she said, "Oh! So this is season 3? That was fast!" I had to explain that it was season 2, which confused her enough to say, "Oh, so you're watching season 3 right now?"
Hear that, universe? My mom thinks that Reaper has a season 3, that it is still on the air! YOU WILL BELIEVE HER. ;D

KR, you gonna share that while I'm on? Will it be like 60 Minutes.... "and did YOU KNOW THAT...." tick-tick-tick.
I can't wait! It'll be fun. Still hoping our fearless leader will arrive and scoop me, though.

I think you can download later, I have before. Check the site in an hour or so and see, aktarian.
It was great. Blue did an excellent job conveying a ton of information about the history of the campaign and a lot of the facts and stats, as well as promoting the various campaigns. She sounded knowledgeable and at-ease! Yay, Blue!

Grrrrrrrr

Quit lying, I sounded like crap. Pfft. Okay, y'all listen up: We have a plan. Sundays - #watchreaper as we watch the CW reruns Wednesdays - itunes/DVD night. We're 98% leaning towards going backwards. So, for example, this week Sunday is the Premiere, and Wednesday we'll watch the Finale to compare. Thursday - write in day. To make sure everyone knows Reaper still has a fandom, we'll email the CW, ABC, and our CW affiliates. We'll organize this on Wednesday 6/17 after we get your guys' thoughts, and we will ALL go out blitzing everything we can on Thursday and Friday with The Plan. Ready, set....your thoughts:

Hi guys. I just received SEASON 1 AND SEASON 2 OF REAPER. I JUST ORDERED ON MONDAY 6/15 AND RECEIVED IN JUST 1 DAY FROM AMAZON.COM. They are awesome! I am going to see if I can comment on their website. I cannot wait to watch. So the CW is televising the REAPER ON SUNDAY, or is it a SAVEREAPER CAUSE? PLEASE LET ME KNOW. I JUST FORWARDED OVER MY RECEIPT FOR MY PURCHASE OF S1 AND S2 to your site. ANOTHER NOTE: WHEN GOING ON BUDDYTV.COM, I GO TO RATE OR HATE AND VOTE ON REAPER. I FIGURED THAT WOULD BE MORE HELPFUL THAN JUST VOTING FOR THE ACTORS. YESTERDAY I SPENT ALL DAY VOTING AND REAPER WAS #50 AND I GOT REAPER TO BE #17 OR 18. I CRIED WHEN I DID THIS BECAUSE I OUTVOTED MY BELOVED MOONLIGHT. SORRY MOONLIGHT FANS. THE SITE IS GLITCHY AND YOU NEED TO BE PATIENT AND LOOK AT BOTTOM FOOTER TO BE COMPLETELY DOWNLOADED. WHEN YOU PLACE YOUR MOUSE OVER THE POINTS TO BE ADDED, MAKE SURE THAT IT SAYS JAVASCRIPT SUBMIT POINTS (VARIES BETWEEN POINTS; I VOTED FOR OTHER PROGRAMS AND WAS ALLOWED 6 POINTS, RATHER THAN THE 3 POINTS THAT WAS ORIGINALLY ALLOWED). I HOPE THIS HELPS!! I JUST PEAKED AT BUDDYTV AND REAPER IS NOW #19. SO LET'S GET VOTING. I CANNOT DO THIS ALONE (I SWEAR ON WAS ON HOURS TO GET THE VOTE TO BE 17 RATHER THAN 50). LONG LIVE REAPER AND KUDOS TO EVERYONE HELPING. YOU GUYS ARE OVER THE TOP. I HOPE THE EXECS READ THIS AND WATCH THE VOTES ON BUDDYTV TOO!!

Says Tyler from Facebook page. I don't know what to do /: Tyler says one, Jenny says another... but if you think about it it makes sense. Tyler has a new show so for him future is secure. which makes him more willing to accept Reaper-is-dead and not fight for it or try to dig up things that would indicate Reaper still has a chance for renewal. Why would he fight for a show that woun't include him? OTOH Jenny doesn't, not with Body Politics not being picked up. So for her makes sense to try to get Reaper renewed, get involved, try to dig up good news to keep the fight going and our spirits up. If Reaper is renewed she is in and with Tyler gone likely to get more screen time. In her place I'd fight for a chance to be in new season of established show with loyal fan base.

I wonder if Tyler realizes the inherent inconsistencies in all his posts. This time "there is absolutely no chance of Reaper going another year" conflicts heartily with the "there is a comic book coming out and some serious talk of it becoming a cartoon." Tyler's not saying anything he hasn't already been saying for weeks now. We know a season this year is increasingly unlikely. However, that doesn't preclude the future, particularly if the comic books sell well and the cartoon does good - assuming we get those that is. So make sure to send in your DVD receipts, and get others to as well. All Tyler's message does is make people give up even more when they really don't need to if they don't want. Remember when I said that one of the hardest things we're fighting against is everyone only getting the "Reaper is Dead" news, so they don't know they can still help? This is just yet another example of that. It's too bad we can't mass email all those people ourselves and tell them if they want to help continue supporting the show anyways, they can come here. I would recommend continuing to post the Save Reaper stuff as usual there, and if Tyler's serious about shutting down the largest Reaper Facebook group, then perhaps we will need to consider opening up another one or moving to a different one. As a Reaper board, we here will continue to discuss Reaper no matter what form it takes, particularly as we work to get it back in *regular* form. It's not that hard for us to add new boards. I don't know what to do /: Tyler says one, Jenny says another... This isn't really new. I would go with what makes the most sense to *you*. Personally, I'm in the middle, and more to the point where Jenny is. While excited about how good it looked in the beginning, reality has now set in and I am well aware of the obstacles. IMO, The situation is nowhere near the absolutely-and-utterly-hopeless-so-give-up-completely message as Tyler is making it out to be, simply because of the facts: 1. Reaper the TV show will not air next year, yet there are cases of shows coming back, even after being "canceled" for over a year. 2. The show and story are not dead since they want to do a comic book and/or cartoon 3. We seem at this point to be a fandom that doesn't quite want to give up, even when faced with the reality that this won't be easy And this doesn't even mention all the stuff I've heard from other people, non-Tyler and non-Jenny. I have never said this would be easy, or that we would be successful. But I don't really see any REAL evidence that this is beyond ALL hope, or not worth the effort anymore. At the very least, I am still interested in the story, so that will go on because it's not contingent on everyone in the cast getting new jobs that will last for years making a televised show impossible no matter how much we want it.

I agree, I'm still fighting! It just seems so... opposing to the energy we receive from everywhere else.

Blue i'm with u at 100%. I don't know where we are going to arrive, but we are anyway on the path.
Furthermore I suppose Tyler, besides having a new and totally different show, was a little bit frustrated for how his character has been developed, i.e. stepsister story .... Adding at this that Nina and Ben relationship has really changed internal balances, there's a lot of clues to understand his facebook posts.

I suppose each of us will know when we've arrived at our own dead end, but while it's kinda disheartening right now I'm kinda looking forward to a comic book if we get it. I just kinda wish we could have it NOW - or at least an official announcement - if only to lift our spirits. Besides, it's always darkest before the dawn, right?
