The Firefly Marathon is today, so please thank Skiffy by sending them an r-mail. The addy is feedback@scifi.com

This also might be a good time to send them a note about the "Firefly: Relit" idea. Here's a copy of My letter to them...

**************************************************************
Programming Suggestion: Firefly as a Summer Replacement Series
**************************************************************

To the Sci/Fi Programming Staff:

Firefly is one of your more popular shows; Check the
Numbers from the last few "Marathons" you've had of
it, and I'm sure you'll agree that it's still quite
popular. It's also in the Interests of NBC/Universal
that it BE a popular Show. The Film Serenity is doing
well in DVD sales, and Firefly's popularity certainly
ties in.

So... Here's what I have in Mind:

There are 14 Episodes, if you count the Pilot as One
Episode. Show the Series in the dvd Format, the way
Joss Whedon originally intended them to be. Sci/Fi
could have each Episode Introduced by one of the
Show's Cast, perhaps a different one each time, and
Joss for the Pilot Episode. The "Guest Host" can intro
an Episode, and provide a tidbit of commentary or
trivia at the end of each Installment. Show one per
week, on the same designated night, just like a
regular Series. It'll take all Summer and Folks can
Tune in, Same Time, Same Channel each week. It'll be a
blast for those of us already familiar with Firefly,
and Introduce an entirely New Audience to it as well.

This could generate enough renewed interest in Firefly
to bring about interest in a Serenity Sequel. Also, if
Sci/Fi is in line for the non-paying Cable Premiere of
Serenity, this would be the PERFECT Tie-in! I hope you
all give this some serious consideration. It could
certainly work, to the benefit of all concerned.

Sincerely,
Timothy Dale Brown

*******************************************************

Hope you enjoy the Show today, and Thanks!

Except for the fact that there are fourteen episodes still counting the "Serenity" Pilot as one episode, I will TOTALLY send this into the Scifi channel.

I have four e-mail addresses, and I've sent this msg to Skiffy EVERY day for the past week. Different variations on the subject heading, but always the same message text. The Message itself is very good; we need NUMBERS to get their attention!

I just sent another one. This is a great idea, it really needs to gain some momentum. I'm talking Serenity Day or Serenity 'Versary size momentum. That would be just shiny.
