My friend CW had an idea and I was supposed to get it out and up on some websites before this, but I've had inclement weather and board troubles and not made it til now. Doesn't change the fact that I'm in on this plan and I hope others will join us.

Operation Valentine's Day


From my friend CW:

Quote:

This is just a nice, happy, fun, little thing to do. Let's make Universal and Scifi smile on Valentines day...

Send a Valentines Day Card, Post card, wavecard or letter to Universal and Scifi and express your Love for FF/Serenity. Draw a heart, write a poem, Tell them how and or why you Love FF/Serenity. It can be long or short. Just express your Love. Tell them you would Love more.

There are some great limerick folks here, I hope you'll post your poems you use.

Don’t forget to thank Universal for the Uni board and Serenity Collector's Edition. It is always a nice thing to do.

Scifi is showing FF again In February ( the 18th to be exact), so don't forget to thank them for that and express your Love for FF.

Mailings should be made by the 12th or 13th of February so they get to them on or around Valentines Day. But a little bit late will still get the point across.


Universal Pictures
100 Universal City Plaza
Universal City, CA 91608


NBC Universal | Sci Fi Channel
1230 Avenue of the Americas
New York, NY
10020



I hope everyone who cares to will join in with us. It never hurts to share our feelings with Uni and SciFi... they continue to be good to us both with marathons and with the Uni HD showings. And with the UniHD site, which is a place of merriment and fun and energy.

That's what I'm thanking them for, then I'm telling them I'm out here sharing the love of FF and Serenity with others and that I'm willing to purchase more if they'll make more, in whatever form.

Here are the addresses again:

Universal Pictures
100 Universal City Plaza
Universal City, CA 91608


NBC Universal | Sci Fi Channel
1230 Avenue of the Americas
New York, NY
10020

I've got a few left over wavecards too that my daughter and her friend want to send in for Valentine's. This works too! Plus puts money in Uni's pocket. :-) They're just gonna draw a heart and color it in on the card.

May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.


Shiny idea FM. I'll shoot Universal some postcards.

I got my cards sent out yesterday.

Wrote a silly poem to Uni too.
I just hope they take it in the fun spirit it was meant and don't think I'm a ridiculous fan. Maybe the sheer "badness" of it will make them giggle?

I wrote:


Rose are red, violets are blue.
I'm waiting and hoping for another Serenity movie from you!

( I know, I know... I'd only make a fool of myself like that for Serenity. LOL )

I also told them I was buying merchanise and would continue to. I thanked them for giving us Serenity as well.

It's not too late to do this. Send SciFi a Valentine's Day card thanking them for the marathon on Monday. :-) Great opportunity for new Browncoats to discover Firefly!

And Uni... they gave us the BDCE, they're showing Firefly again in March on their HD channel, and they have a very active, shiny fun forum open for us. Good reasons all to thank them. :-)
Send 'em a card...tell them you want another movie, or miniseries on tv or a direct to DVD movie.
Or...( I'm intrigued by this, because Joss keeps talking about "alternative ways" to get his work out )something online? I'd watch whatever Joss wanted to make for us, knowing he'd once again make me want to see that story. :-)
