Please save Jericho from being nuked off the air!
If you want to let CBS know, you can write a letter or use the template below.
Mr. Kelly KahlI hope we will be able to save 'Jericho'. The truth is, letter-writing campaigns often don't accomplish their missions. However, we can always hope we will accomplish our mission here.

To Mr. Kelly Kahl,
I wish to express my disappointment with the cancellation of 'Jericho'. This TV program is beloved and cherished by many TV viewers including the deaf and hard of hearing. 'Jericho' had a large range of strong characters with depth instead of one-dimensional characters including a well fleshed out deaf character, which is rare to be seen on the TV and at the movies.
The show is also unique because of the post-apocalyptic theme surrounding the humanizing stories featured on the program. It would be a great loss to see the TV series fade into oblivion because it wasn't given the chance to prove itself. Today, most TV programs aren't given the chance. They often get canceled within a few episodes. Some were lucky to stick around like 'Seinfeld' which wasn't popular till the third or fourth season.
I know many will be happy to see 'Jericho' stay on the air instead of getting nuked off the air after a great season, which also ended with an exciting cliffhanger. Please give 'Jericho' a chance to prove itself by keeping it on the air.
I hope that my voice has been heard and that it will be taken in consideration. Thank you for taking the time to read my letter.
Sincerely,
(Your name here)

The Save Jericho Campaign will not rest until the Return of Jericho!!!
It looks like they are hearing us. They released an official statement about it.
ReplyDeleteKeep it up!
After reading your aticles about the demise of Jericho, I started following the different efforts in trying to convince CBS the error in it's ways, and renew Jericho. I had a different approach, but first I would like a second opinion on it's value (or lack of), and also, someone who might be in a better position to gather and disseminate this information.
ReplyDeleteHow about adding a listing of the companies that are national sponsors of CBS, and particularly Jericho, and see if many tens of thousands of letters gathers their attention. (In Canada, we have other networks that show Jericho, with their own local, regional and national advertising, but it has little (if any) direct or indirect influence on CBS unfortunately).
Tis a scummy approach to go after CBS's financing, but it appears the jugular may be the most effective approach.
I am glad to find more and more people with many different reasons they loved Jericho. I am beginning to realize what a very broad, diverse fanbase appealed to.
ReplyDeleteThanks Banjo for being part of the fight to save Jericho!

FYI, I tried to send an email and it bounced. I read elsewhere that they have changed the emails of the execs. Great idea, though! I've also contributed to NUTS for Jericho!
ReplyDeleteThe kkahl@cbs.com email address has been disabled. Use audsvcs@cbs.com for email, but print your letter out and send a hard copy, too.
ReplyDeleteVisit jericholives.com for more information, including additional contact info.
I would not mind so much if only they would resolve the story.
ReplyDeleteIt is really nuts that the Sci-Fi Channel will probably be running reruns of the show next season, even wihout a resolution.
Another cool support Jericho event taking place tomorrow night on PalTalk...a live chat!!
ReplyDeleteTomorrow at 5 p.m. EST, log onto http://www.paltalk.com/newstalk/jbraverman_episode.shtml for a live video chat with “NUTS for Jericho” visionary Jeffrey Braverman regarding his unprecedented grassroots campaign presently driving CBS execs, well, nuts.
