I know that the campaign has taken off, but we all know it is never too late to add to. I was looking through the news archives off Crashdown.com, around the 2001 archives, when the Roswell fans were trying to get UPN to pick up. They were campaigning to both UPN and WB at the same time. UPN picked Roswell up for a third season, after the WB canceled it. Could we add UPN to the campaign mailing address' just incase the WB does not change their minds? UPN could surprise us. Anyways, here are the exact same address' the Roswell fans used.
Dean Valentine
President & CEO
United Paramount Network
11800 Wilshire Boulevard
Los Angeles, CA 90025
Tom Nunan
President, Entertainment
United Paramount Network

Los Angeles, CA 90025

UPN is developing TWO comic book series -- Night Thrasher and Danger Girl.
Between them and ***yawn*** Enterprise, I'd say they've got their hands full as is.
Our best bets might be either on cable or syndication (personally, I'm leaning more towards syndication at this point).

Dean Valentine is no longer the President of UPN. I will try to find the correct information for anyone who wishes to write to them.

Since I have heard that the SCi-Fi channel is considering picking up the show, what about adding them to the campaign? Maybe if they saw the backing the show has, they would take a closer look at it.

Dawn Tarnofsky-Ornoff will fill the void left when UPN's former entertainment president, Tom Nunan, quit in June. In name, she will also take over the position of former UPN CEO Dean Valentine, but as the network has been integrated with corporate sibling CBS Tarnofsky-Ornoff will report to CBS president Les Moonves.

Well, once we get the names/address' correct, we could maybe try. I know UPN is getting a little full, but dont they have Friday and Sunday empty? Also, they could use our show as a midseason replacement, or something like that.
I REALLY like the Sci-Fi idea, BoP would do excellent there, but is there any confirmation that Sci-Fi would be interested? We would also need an address to write Sci-Fi.
I was told by people from Tribune in the beginning that Sci-Fi was an excellent choice. Maybe we should just do Sci-Fi, the station keeps being brought up.

But isn't Buffy's future on UPN still in question because they still haven't said if its the last season for Buffy or not.
I read in my newspaper yesterday that Enterprise's ratings on UPN have dropped 60% since its debut. So who knows. Maybe UPN might like BoP.
So we have sci-fi and UPN. Who else?
Yes I have time on my hands and I really want to write some more.
Also if we do write UPN And sci-fi don't we need to write to the President of Programming or something like that?
And not forgetting to keep on writing to the WB as well.

No matter what happens, Enterprise is still Trek (Translation: it's on the 7-year plan ... just like its sisters TNG, DS9, and VOY).
Go ahead and write to UPN ... I guess it can't hurt.
Oh I know what you mean by Enterprise going on 7 years. I just find it interesting that they mentioned the falling ratings. They were talking about how they hoped the new Star Trek movie would help Enterprise's ratings. But I can tell you that all of my friends and family who are Star Trek fans we don't watch Enterprise at all. Ah I miss TNG!
I say try every option available if you can. Can't hurt to try. :)
I used to be a big Trek fan but Enterprise broke my religious trek-watching habit. Looking forward to Nemisis big style. But I dunno if Enterprise will make it to the 7 year formula.
If you guys think Sci-Fi is a good idea then go for it and start mailing to them but don't spread yourselves too thinly!
Neil you'll love Nemesis. Good movie! :)
I have to agree I do wonder if Enterprise will run 7 years. I know they want to keep Star Trek alive but with low ratings who knows? They are still up in the air if they are going to make another Star Trek movie or not (and they better is all I am saying!).
just seen the trailers for Nemesis (spelt it wrong in my other post) on TV at last. I've only seen the ones from the Apple site before and it looks ace.
TNG is the best of the various Trek series so I hope they do go on to make another movie, I know they've been saying that if this is the last one it's a good way to go out. But if this one does well (i.e. better than Insurrection, which I liked anyway) I pray for atleast one more.
