Hey all ---

In the interest of letting SciFi / Universal / the whole conglom know that we don't just watch the shows, we pay attention to their advertisers, please enjoy (!) the following list, and write the everprecious letters saying you like the shows so much you'll go out and buy from their sponsors. And/or write the sponsors. Or just eat a lot of Keebler cookies, it all comes to the same thing.

Where can be found the Right & Wisest Address to send such feedback to the SciFiUniversal chain o' command?

So FOR THE RECORD these are the advertisers that supported the Firefly marathon last Monday, as viewed by a DirecTV customer in the Eastern US. Multi-product companies are collected under their parent. This is in histogramically descending order, so our winner is,

KELLOGG'S (cereals & Keebler), at 19 commercials,

followed closely by

DITECH.COM, at 18

Also in the double-digits we have

YUM! BRANDS (KFC / Long John Silver's / Pizza Hut), 15

What a delightful guerilla marketing strategy. I saw Nestle and Domino's on the list, too. I'll do my best.
