Legend of the Seeker - News/Ratings #6: We will fight to the very end, because that's what our Seeker would do. - Page 3

Yeah, I as well doubt that SyFy will change it's mind. They made it really clear so why should they now? Right now? Okay, maybe because B isn't pregnant anymore but still...

It was beyond mean to do that.

And it's really a Seeker fan who brought up this stuff.

US trip scores Jessica Marais a new role
PACKED to the Rafters beauty Jessica Marais has landed her first international role, being cast in a TV series while on a recent 10-day trip to the US.

Marais, who finished on the hit Channel 7 drama in February, will head to the States at the end of June.

“I am going to Miami for four months to work on a project over there,” she revealed yesterday.

“It is a high-end cable-television show, so it is very exciting and very different to what I have been doing with Packed to the Rafters.”

The US move won’t mean she will be apart from her fiance, and former co-star, Jimmy Stewart.

“Jimmy is going to be able to come over because he will be on a production break (fromRafters),” she said.

just posting here because it is something kinda 'Seeker' related.

Hmm...I wonder what the show is going to be. I actually still thought she was on that show with her fiance

Lauren Helen Graham · 05-04-2011, 11:10 PM

Thanks for the news, Nat!

Great to hear that she's got a new role! Now I would love to know what tv show she'll be working on. I guess she isn't allowed to reveal anything, huh?

Besides of that here the new JBC announcement for this week:

Noteworthy Campaigns

Naples Comicon 2011 photos to be posted here NEW

And always remember...
Your letter can simply be a brief note, so long as it is clear you want more Legend of the Seeker.

Postcards are both cheap and very effective.
Be polite in your letters. The person who will read them didn't cancel our show, so we shouldn't treat them as if they did.
If possible, try to argue that Legend of the Seeker would greatly benefit all parties involved in its resurrection. State that even with poor time slots, lack of promotion and erratic airing schedules, the series still managed to gain millions of dedicated followers. If given a chance, it could be one of the most popular shows currently on television!
To request re-runs when we contact the networks.

Pickle-weasel! · 05-05-2011, 08:30 AM

Wow so much stuff still going on

So proud of the fans

Lauren Helen Graham · 05-05-2011, 11:41 PM

Ale, me too.

It was so lovely and they really seem to have had a lot of fun! I wish the Cons here in Germany would be held in summer and somewhere outside as well. But no, it's always just inside.

Yeah, Ria.

There's still a lot going on.
The SOS team put up a lot of online adds the last days. At Variety and other websites.

I'm so proud, really, to be a part of this fandom.

Freckles87 · 05-06-2011, 12:16 AM

Yes and they reproduced so many scenes from the show.

Lauren Helen Graham · 05-10-2011, 11:25 PM

They even built the coulisses. They looked just amazing and I was so stunned!

Btw - The three peeps from RingCon that ordered a Sister of the Dark outfit like I did and me ordered a Dacra (not a real one but one out of wood) some weeks ago and it might be shipped to Germany in about a week. When I finally have it I'll show you some pics

Pickle-weasel! · 05-11-2011, 09:42 AM

Oh awesome Kris, can't wait to see it

Lauren Helen Graham · 05-15-2011, 11:09 AM

I want to S2 dvd

. Why I why don't I have a credit card.
Hopefully the new products will do well.

Lauren Helen Graham · 05-16-2011, 10:56 PM

I want the dvd as well but for me it's not the credit card but the region code

It so sucks...

And here's a new writing campaign of the SOS team

Quote:

LoTS of Promotions

The time has come for a new mail drive. (Sending as many postcards and letters as we can to the networks is still our best tool to win over one of them.)

Our new postcard project features the Seeker product placement pictures.

Several of us picked the pictures for this mail drive to avoid any with questionable content that would reflect badly on our efforts. We would like to ask you to pick pictures from the ones below and send them as postcards to the networks.

This project, as the ones before, will be synchronous with the Journey Book Campaign. So please send your postcards according to it.
Please don’t send these pictures to Disney, just to the networks. Instead of these ones, use pictures from any of the Postcard to Disney threads.

Here's the link to the Picture and Postcard Backing Repository where you can find ready made backings if you don't know what to write to the networks.

(Postcards for the US can be no smaller than 3.5" x 5" and no larger than 4" x 6".)

Credit for all the stuff goes to the SOS team because I couldn't bring over the link for it being another forum.
