I won't waste my money and time on Kevin Reilly, since he has no regard for anything but the lame ass reality shows, and more carbon copy sci fi shows.

Back To You is being shopped to CBS, so anything is possible :shrugs:

I bet its because Patricia is a CBS alumni for Everybody Loves Raymond.

Well, hopefully you'll still find a stamp for Regency, then?

Brooke, then what we as a community should probably do is start asking people if they'd be willing to commit $40-$50 to making NA an independent show. Once the goal is reached, then we start production.

I'll commit $50. Anyone else?

The business model will change but not overnight, lol. It will be an organized, if slow moving process, and a band of fans pooling money together will not a process make.

I admire the thought, though.

*grumble grumble*

They did it again! I took out the phone number and posted it at the end of another thread and STILL they deleted my post!



I... HATE... FOX!!!!

Don't know if this would be of any help, but the following are contacts for the series at Fox:

EDIT BY JTF: Thanks but, actually as Michael Roach has been EXTREMELY nice to me I'd rather not expose him to the crying masses. He's not really in a department to help/handle public issues, I don't think. ...and Alex, well, I just won't say.

Hey, Diedye,
Looks like your post on the FOX board finally held - tacked on to the back of the "ATTENTION! HERE"S WHAT TO DO" thread. (re-naming that was the smartest thing I've done - It keeps being bumped to the top.)

I called the FOX line, and I wrote to Recency. I pre-ordered DVD from Amazon.
Anything else? besides crying in my scotch & soda?

You can pre-order the dvd ALREADY?! *goes to look*

[AttilaTheNun]

Muscula, all I found (besides the UnBox links) was a 'Sign up tp be notified when this item is available' link; was that what you meant?

[muscula]

Yeah - I guess "pre-order" is a little too strong a word.

[AttilaTheNun]

Yeah - I guess "pre-order" is a little too strong a word.

Still, I suppose even that there's a 'notification' link is a good sign ...... Going by the TDF model, maybe by the fall .....

I saw this over at the FOX NA forum:

The word is out that it's already cancelled but...I have an idea. Send an email to the SciFi channel at feedback@scifi.com and ask them to pick it up. They have taken on some cool shows that other networks have cancelled and they have thrived over there. It couldn't hurt, right? It really sucks when they pull something that we're really getting into. I liked the Journeyman too and bam, it's gone. Anyway, maybe if they get enough requests, they'll look into it.

What do you think?

AAIIIIEEEEEEEEE , NOOOOOOOO!!!! If the SciFi Channel didn't have the sense to renew The Dresden Files, I should think there's VERY little chance they'd pick up New Amsterdam ----- it's too good for the managment to understand it ---- AND, IF, by some million-to-one-chance, they DID, they'd probably do unto NA what they did unto Flash Gordon
